New job!!!

Got a new job at techWorks as a Tecnology Architect. I am STOKED! Can't wait to start. I will be a hired-tech-gun for 10-15 clients. They call, I respond and repair/deploy/whatever-is-nesessary.

They have two offices, one in Wauwatosa, which is where I will work, and one in Madison. They are a new company, but very forward thinking, and growing rapidly. I was very impressed by the things that the president of the company had to say concerning the work-ethic and the importance of maintaining a good working relationship with the customer. This was embossed on my brain early in my working career, so I should fit right in. More next week!

We have [or should I say 'had'] about 5 or 6 pages of static text describing our exhibitions, and it was getting tedious to update. Also a little rediculous to do both the calendar and static pages...especially when the shows change so much...sooooo I wrote a little script on each exhibition page to pull that data from the calendar, and format it correctly on the page. All the folks that input it have to do is conform to some input criteria, and it works great. Maybe some day I'l
