New Opportunites - Starting a new position at Ironworks Consulting

Published 16 November 08 11:00 PM | kevin 

Hello all! Its been a good year overall, despite the fact that I was laid off from Land America due to the economic conditions in the real estate market and the ripple effect it has had on companies like Land America.

I was laid off two weeks ago, along with 119 other unfortunate souls, most of them IT professionals. Truthfully it was time to leave anyway as the continual rounds of lay offs had not only played havok with my nerves but also reduced development efforts to enhancements, small upgrades (maintainence) and support. Nothing exciting there. Additionally, it was obvious that the layoff steamroller would eventually head my way.

It hasn't been all bad though. Microsoft awarded me the Most Valuable Professional Award October 1 - a true honor and privledge. My award was in the Team System space.

 I have accepted a position with the SharePoint team at Ironworks Consulting and start there in a few weeks, so I will hopefully be ending the year with a bang. I just got back from attending the Raleigh Code Camp this past Saturday and let me tell you, it rocked! Chris Love and the TRINUG team really know how to put on a world class event.

 Catch you all later!

-Kevin

Congrats Kevin!

  I've long believed all things happen for the best, although that's easier to believe at some times. Hang in there, bro!
