ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST!!

Another one's down. My second layoff in less then 10 months. That's right the second time in less then a year and third time in 3 years. I know that some strive for perfection but this is one statistic I did not plan on when graduating from college. The good news is I found another job that will start the day my current job ends. I am not too sure about its stability in today's economy but the pay is better and I get a F150 that includes gas card and personal use so I am hoping for the best. As soon as I get and sign my offer letter I will be working for TTI. Better known to most as the company that owns Ryobi and Milwaukee Tools. It also makes Rigid, Craftsman, Homelite and a number of other electronics. I am hoping it is a great place to start a career since I will placed in there LDP (Leadership Development Program) which is supposed to be a fast track to management if you perform well. On the Bike front I have not heard much except some guys in the same build batch as me have heard from Doug that they're frames are in. Too bad I have not heard a thing about my frame or component choices. I still believe (or hope) I will get a mountain bike that fits some day. I also want to throw a shout out to my buddy Eric who is a new father to a baby girl today!
