Transitions

Change is good. Some might even say change is tough. But I think it’s a little bit of both. After working for my current employer for just over three years, I’m now about to make a move to a new company. The three years were good, I met and worked with some very good people. But the mind inevitably craves the Big C’s (Change, Challenge and Compensation).

Anyone involved in the high-tech field knows that this is a ever evolving landscape. New technologies, languages, methodologies are constant and keeping up with them a challenge unto itself. The ideal job will have to doing what you know best while allowing you to explore and learn what you don’t. My current allowed for some of that initially, but after doing it for a few years, the opportunities dwindled.

So, the new job will provide these opportunities and more.

And also speaking of transitions, another big one is the fact that my wife and I are expecting our first child early next year. You can read the grand announcement on my wife’s site. We are very excited about becoming parents and are also a little worried/scared about all the changes that come with this transition. The sleepless nights that await us should be interesting.

Cheers
