Best of luck! Enjoy!
Ya gotta tell us how today went once you get home and unwind.
Good luck! Changing jobs sucks, but normally works out.
Good luck ! After 37 years at the same job, I could use a change.
I worked at Kerr-McGee at the end. They transferred a bunch of people to the office in Houston. When the layoffs started, they were the first to get cut. In a new city, with zero jobs in oil & gas available, and unemployed. Nice. Just more of Corbett's leadership that allowed him to walk away with $150 million.
Well I survived...lots of reading through manuals, learning computer drives, filling out paperwork and all that.
I appreciate the good wishes. I hope it works out anf I get to stick around the area as its nice being pretty central in the US.
And no, not Oil and Gas....but aerospace/defense type work so it ebbs and flows much like the O&G industry.

Great, glad to hear it.
Congrats on the new job!
Trump is talking about expanding the military, so hopefully, aerospace/defense work will stabilize. My dad worked forever in that industry (and my brother does now) and I remember many tense times. It always worked out for them. The secret was working harder than damn near everybody else and knowing your stuff inside and out. It's a difficult industry, but you can make a good career out of it.

Ive survived more layoffs than I care to count since Obama took office....I guess it was just my time. I thought about getting out of that industry for that reason but really enjoy it so I will see how it goes and no longer assume I will make a career at one place. Just part of it and you gotta try not to take it personal.
