I have been at my current day job for about four months. My normal stay at a job is usually in the one to three year range because I am usually there to solve a narrow, very specific hard problem that, when it is solved, they have no more need for the likes of me. This time, though, there was a prefect storm. When I first got there, I got put into an office with a door that had a lock because it was over on the business (as opposed to engineering) side of the house. The lock was a pain in the neck because I had to use my key on Thursdays and Mondays to get in after the cleaning people came the night before. Now, the business is doing well, so they hired a new business guy which was timed by one of the technical guys moving on to another job and leaving me a double size office with a beautiful wood desk and a window. Alright, the window is one of those tall narrow ones beside the door that looks out onto the hallway, but it is still a window. Feels good!
