Well, my job search has ended. Starting Sept. 9th, I'll be a Quality Project Manager for a surgical robotics company in Pittsburgh.
As part of my onboarding, I will tour a cadaver lab. Which I actually think is kind of cool.

2019 Pittsburgh Pirates Season Thread
I found last night's game to be the most entertaining Pirates game of the season, for all the wrong reasons.

Thanks. I've been working with an outplacement company and the consultant did a nice job updating my resume.

Been a while since I've been here. Thought I'd just let you know I'm still alive and still job hunting.

I think I'm going to try the Beyond Burger soon. Doesn't hurt to cut back on the meat consumption, although I don't eat nearly as much meat anymore to begin with.

It will take an incredible offer put together by the Pens or finding an incredibly stupid GM to move JJ. Hoping for the latter, know it will take the former.

My former employer is providing 3 months of free outplacement help. I was talking with my rep today, who mentioned the service can be put on hold for up to 59 days, and could be restarted. She knows I've been looking since 2 days after I was let go. She said "A little break is ok. Gives you tim...

I recently discovered these at the speedway gas station here in the burgh. Paqui was known for their one chip challenge with a single heavily dusted ghost pepper tortilla chip. These by far are the spiciest chip I’ve ever tried. Way spicier than those hot ones from the Doritos roulette chips a few ...

Took a few weeks off to get my head together after the layoff (which was massive and not over. More this month.)
I'm in a good place. I really hated my job at the end. 42 weeks severance, all health benefit paid in that time as well. So I have time to look for a job I actually want.

Does anyone have experience with a parent going into a nursing home and trying to protect some assets for the healthy spouse? It's looking more and more likely that my dad's going to a nursing home sooner rather than later. My parents don't have a ton of money, maybe $80K in IRAs and CDs and their ...

This is pretty rough. I've been peaced out a couple times, both where roughly 50% of the company was laid off in one go, but there was no real warning either time. I can't imagine going to bed multiple nights in a row feeling like this was coming. Oddly enough, it's a good thing. I was able to clea...
