A 'few days' off
Jake Pratt says:
So, i have had a few days off this summer. For those i haven't talked to over the last few months i thought i would spend a few moments catching up. After leaving SolArc, I took a little time to lean Mac programming (and build and app for eMotionMedia.com.) i also got in a good solid month of home renovation at Dre's house getting it ready to sell. Lately i have finally had a chance to decompress from my 14 year SolArc servitude and do some fun projects for myself What you see here is one of my favs. Its a huge Lego Technic kit that i pulled out of the closet and spent a few weeks assembling. It turned out great and is quite photogenic.
As much as i would love to keep sitting on my butt.... i (and my saving account) decided to start searching for a solid job in early August and got a few offers. I decided to accept one at a local company called F.W. Murphy. I had never heard of them but after meeting with them and seeing what they do it was too good to pass up. I will be doing windows programming once again...this time on a small application (no more big enterprise software for me :) I'm looking forward to starting this week and diving into what looks like a fun but very challenging UI. The team is very small (4 people with me) and i will primarily be doing the UI design/implementation for the software and best of all its NOT in the energy industry.
Its my first new job in years so wish me luck...I'm sure i will need it.
