Okay who am I kidding the one I dream about running around in a dress is Goldmoon.
Wow... I'm surprised. I would have expected you to be dreaming of her in a chainmail bikini swinging around a foot long hotdog like it was a menacing weapon. Wait... that's kind of a scary thought... Ok.. her in a bikini without the hotdog.
Can't leave you miscreants alone for a few hours to grab some sleep and the conversations gos downhill... Well done
Slightly stunned at the moment, had a weigh in last night at karate and for the first time in about 15 years I weigh less than 90Kg (198Pounds) Somewhat unexpected but I am in a good mood this morning.

Just to be clear. I have had no dreams of Goldmoon in any form. That is the truth. All I need is for her to come back and kick my ass for something like this.

Work has been a pain. I've been given more work to do because I don't have enough to keep me busy. I've asked for it so I don't mind it. The problem is that it seems like my other teammates kinda check out when I show up and I do most of the work in addition to the new stuff. I've become the "go to" guy for others outside our team namely the SEs working with us at night. So here I am doing my work plus the work of the other 2 operators and they come to me with questions. I need a raise.
A lot of this is prompting me to think about moving. A friend of mine is moving away and I've been thinking of going with him. IF I do I'll have to give up what really is the best job that I've ever had and move away from family and friends I've had for years. I just think at some point you need to start over somewhere different.

Move?!?
I don't know about in Georgia but in Vermont jobs are scarce. If you like your job think twice about it. Eventually you will be rewarded for the work you are doing now.

I'm aware of the job prospects. I'd be stupid to leave the job for the unknown but that also seems like part of the appeal. I thought of looking for work as a bouncer or something. Go back to delivering pizza. A great way to learn a new city fast.

No matter what you should check out how the job market is in the area you are planning on moving to first, ya know.

Southern Vermont isn't a job-mecha either.
In truth , I'm aware of anywhere that is on the upswing for economy. Makes me almost feel for you folks getting out of college currently. Tough time with few openings and a lot of folks for those few openings.... many over qualified for desperate for work.
Erased what I was about to say.... too political other than to say the political force of the 80's and 90's and recent times have destroyed the economy and current "fixes" will make it where my great grandchildren will still be paying for it (plus any more additional costs that WILL rise.... like the damned retirees that would be me if I could ever afford it which I won't)

You'd like it and we all know it.

From what I've read, there's a few places that are actually looking for people, but they're like places you wouldn't want to move to anyway.
Aaaaaaaaand apropos of nothing- I have the 2005 Montreaux Jazz Festival on in the background as I post this. George Benson is seriously underrated as a guitarist.
Also, was watching The Soup earlier today, and they were discussing Andrew Zimmern's show, Bizarre Foods. In this week's episode, there was a special guest, a former Special Forces type whose name was- no joke- Myke Hawke. (Say it fast.) (http://www.mykehawke.com/Intel.htm)
With a name like that, you'd just about HAVE to go into some form of Special Forces.
