Short but sweet

| Work and play | 7 Comments

Well it was short but sweet, and now it is time to move on. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that should I not go for it I would regret for some time to come.

After a month and a half or so doing challenging work at Blinck International BV in Amsterdam as team leader of the developement team, I will be starting my new life at Pace Micro Technology in the UK as software architect for their research and development department.

Like I have said before, you are never too old to begin yet another adventure in life.

Hi Kiffin,

Thanks for the good (but short) time working with you at Blinck's. You managed to get things done which I couldn't myself :-)

Wishing you all the best with your new job!

Hi,

Welcome to Pace - you should the work interesting and challenging. I've worked for the company for over 8 years and not managed to tear myself away yet! I'm sure I'll see you around.

Hi Kiffin,

I've not read your blog for awhile so didn't notice that you're back on track again. Glad to hear you're fine.

Good luck in the UK.

Will have to look around and see if I can meet this person who goes by the initials of JMS.

I'm sure that you'll find me at Pace - it will give you something to do between the induction course, the electrical safety course, the 'how to lift heavy objects without snapping your spine in two' course and getting photographed for your ID badge.

;-)

Good luck in Yorkshire Kiffin.

Thanks Simon. You wouldn't happen to be the very same Simon who I have the pleasure of sitting next to at Pace now would you? Or is this the other Simon who I knew during the good old days at Demon? Just curious is all.
