Where all are you going to go in California Jeff? California is a wonderful state in my opinion!!! And I haven't even seen but a little bit of it........Los Angeles and San Francisco.

Well the interview went ok I guess. Part of it was being questioned and the other part was a hands on test and a written test. That is the first interview I have ever been on that included a test. I had to make a patch cable, set up a printer to be networked, then network the printer, share the printer as a printer server, etc. plus answer a bunch of questions on a written test of what I would do if I were asked such and such. I think I did ok except for making the patch cable. That is just not something I do. That is all for an entry level position which seems kind of odd since I have been working in this field for so long. But of course there are no jobs so it is surprising that even that one exists. The tie turned out to not be a necessity apparently since of the 5 people who interviewed me only 1 had one on. I am very glad I didn't go as far as a suit since I already felt a bit overdressed. Basically it was a jeans/tshirt environment as are many of the information technology type jobs. I think I even saw people in shorts, but this is not strange for IT people.

Just San Francisco--and what I can see first coming down from Seattle on the train, then what I can see of the Sierras heading east on the train.
I'm glad the interview went well. :)

I would say that means you will see a lot of California such as where the giant redwoods grow. That sounds like a terrific trip. Seattle, Portland, and northern California are all places I would like to plan a trip too. Maybe next summer. Are you going to stay over in Seattle and San Francisco? I may have to find out more about that train trip. That would be a great way to go, but I assume it takes a lot of time. Is that correct?
