Well, Steve's last day was fun, anyway. We talked about what the new roles would be, and Steve pointed out that I am the new head of the office, which I liked. I guess it will be live or die my way.
We then took Steve out to eat at BW3's, which has been Steve and my favorite restaurant of late. We're both totally addicted to wings lately. And BW3 has good sauces.
There, we drank several beers and went back so Steve could wrap up his last day activities.
Then we had (what I hope is) a stroke of luck.
And now for the long, drawn out story.....

wow. you're committed, aren't you? Well, don't think I don't appreciate it. You know what? You're my favorite reader.
So anyway.
We work in office building that has several offices. All one floor, just a long hallway with several doors to the various offices, and much to my displeasure, on bathroom. So I went to the bathroom, and as I was walking back down the hallway towards our door, I saw a familiar sight. A new person, mostly lost. He was standing at our door, tentatively. This happens all the time, idiotic, new salesmen, forced to cold call places for God-only-knows what. I hate dealing with these guys. I decide to not walk towards our door, and let whoever he catches first inside to tell him to piss off.
So I wait for 1 minute. Then two. He's not coming out. So I finally bite the bullet and go in, and it's the worst possible scenerio, which I kind of had to expect, now being the new head of the office, he's standing there talking with one of our engineers, I have no idea what they had said, but the second I walk through the door, the engineer says "Oh, there's the guy you need to be talking to"
Yes, great. Allow me to deal with this idiot.
Then the guy explains that he is an engineer for a small company in town, and does work very similar to ours, and thought he we drop off his resume, as he's looking for a new engineering job, but doesn't want to leave lincoln.
Holy jesus. Do you know how many guys there are like that?
Three. Exactly three.
And here's one of them, and he's got great experience, and he's looking to jump jobs, and we need to fill a spot. Timing couldn't be more perfect.
That said, the timing is perfect, hope I can convince the powers that be to hire someone this quickly....
