I’m leaving Reno

After a nearly three month process, I was successful in my bid for a promotion. I’m certainly glad that part of the process is over.

I will be moving to (greater) Denver for my new job, at a time to be determined later by the powers that be. I’m still with the same company, so this is a major promotion as well as transfer.

Although I have (charitably) ‘rough’ php/OOP ability, I did find it satisfying that my web dev ability was the deciding factor in my being selected for the job.

In fact, the first project on which I’ll be working is building a website. I have a basic engine written which I use for all similar types of sites, but this is on a much larger scale. I look forward to the task ahead. They have modest requirements so far, and we all know that requirements never change. Right? 😉

I will, however, investigate whether or not I can make use of C# (my company is ALL about MS products, and I’m surprised that they support php – which happens to be v4.3.0). If the server configuration supports C# I can use this as an opportunity to learn that language. So it’s php for now, and hopefully C# just ahead.

Sell the house, pack the belongings, and off to the rockies.
