Default New job!

Well, after years of working and going back to school full time, it finally paid off! Got awesome job offer yesterday and took it! Start in two weeks. The funny thing Is, the first thing I thought of was boat upgrades.

I'm so pumped!

Thanks man! appreciate it! The job is Design Engineer at Waltonen engineering.

As far as the boat goes I probably won't be doing much more this year as I'm already having both engines rebuilt as we speak. Unfortunately at the time I couldn't afford to do much in the way of upping the power so kind of a bummer now that I'll be making considerably more money. I'm just gonna enjoy the boat this summer, bank as much money as I can and see which direction to go for next year.

That's most likely the direction I'm heading. Find a boat the way I want it, probably be cheaper in the long run anyway.

I wanted to throw some sarcasm in there so my post wasn't boring and dry.
