Well, I just got back from my interview. Seemed to go pretty well. They showed me around and explained a lot of stuff to me, which I figure is a positive sign. I was also dressed better than they were, which I suppose could be good or bad...
They said that they were just starting interviews, so that unfortunately, means the timeframe for notification (about 2 weeks) overlaps with another thing I might be able to do for a month. I'll have to call the people heading that up tomorrow and see if they're still taking people. However, this Adaptec job would pay a lot more and would likely be steady for 9 months or so.
So, I'll send out a post-interview thank you tomorrow, after I've called those other folks.
Too bad the Adaptec place is pretty far away on a pretty sucky stretch of I-94 and right next to a truck stop. Just what I need to be dealing with at 9 in the morning—screwed up roads overflowing with fleets of semis. At least I'd be going in the “wrong” direction (less traffic) and there would be plenty of opportunities to stop for supper on the way back. Still, I'd have to invest in some nice sunglasses (always driving toward the sun) and a CD player or MP3 player for my car so I don't have to listen to the DJs and ads on the radio.
I have a hypothesis that more crashes happen when DJs are yapping and ads are blaring than when music is on the radio. I'm sure there's no good way to figure out if that's true, though.
