Resume - sent.

So for the first time in over 10 years, I have made a resume, on top of that, I have sent it to a company for consideration in a Linux Administrator position. Yowza.

I am pretty excited honestly, I am really hoping for a call back! I was a little hesitant posting this, as I know it may worry some of the customers who have found/read this blog, but honestly for the time being, nothing will change - even if I pick up this job, however if after a few months things are good, then I may have an offer to customers to migrate over to my new job, but let it be known that I am not putting clients up for sale, I am not bargaining your websites to get the job, you are safe - you will be given a choice if I decide to shutdown my own hosting operations, but I doubt that’ll ever happen 100%.

The choice to apply for a job just came from the slump in hosting, even yearly promotions which normally brought in a large amount of sales brought in 0 thus far, so it’s sad to look at really - and I have bills to pay, but long term I know I will always do my own thing at some level, but again, I don’t have this job yet, I barely hit send a minute ago, so as it stands nothing has changed, and until I get the job, I am trying to not think past “Today” as that’s all I can focus on, and stay sane so we’ll see what happens, but I appreciate your prayers in this matter, it’d be an amazing opportunity, and really open the doors for more things in my life from a financial standpoint, as well as give me a group of other linux admins who I can learn from and who knows maybe even teach things in return.

Anywhoo - that’s where I am at - I am excited, anxious, and hopeful that it will all work, but at the same time I know that just because I put my resume in I am not instantly hired so now to wait and watch, and see what happens! But for now, onto the day, more work on billing migration, more exploring what’s up with email on a friend’s server as I begin more external testing today, plus I am going to explore Amazon S3 a bit, have some ideas for it. So I will say Have a good Thursday folks! and be on with the craziness here take care!
