Next Interview
So I think I misled everyone. Mike was offered a position in Witchita, but we haven't accepted yet, and we may not. We're still early in the "finding a job" game. He found out today he interviews with Raytheon in Tuscon, AZ in November and hopefully there will be others. He's looking at Medtronic and Northrupp Grummin (?) and Sandia National Laboratories and his advisor just told him to apply to some other job because someone is trying to recruit from Mike's lab. So hopefully there will be a long list of options. :) Yeah for interviews!!! Maybe when we move we'll put the boys in separate bedrooms so I don't have to listen to them keep each other awake. Any guesses what I'm listening to right now???? :)

Witchita-ta-ta
Mike had his first job interview this past week. He received an offer two days later. We have until Nov. 3 to give them our answer. Great, huh???? The only problem is Mike hasn't had any time to follow up with other companies and so he doesn't have other interviews going right now, so we don't really know our options. Oh, and if you couldn't tell from the title, the offer was from Witchita, Kansas. Hawker Beechcraft is the company. They make private jets and small planes. Mike really enjoyed being in Witchita, he likes the homes, the people, he really likes the company and would enjoy working on small planes. We'd make what sounds like nothing, but it's the equivalent of $100,000 in the LA area, so you can guess how cheap cost of living is in Witchita-ta-ta. And the best part--We have Caleb calling the city Witchita-ta-ta. It's really fun to say. You should try it.
