Tip of the Iceberg

Category musings
As of today, I've been employed at Lotus 911 for one year. Doesn't feel like it's really been that long, but maybe that's just because, in 10 1/2 years, I've had 7 jobs, so having stayed a full year makes it the third longest I've been with the same company. I'm actually not quite as skittish as that makes me sound: my first Notes job was as a contractor working full-time at a single client who, after 11 months, hired me as a regular employee in a slightly different role than the one I'd occupied as a contractor. 18 months later, the company was absorbed by another (in what was called a merger but was really an acquisition) the same day I moved to yet another role in the organization, so once again it was technically a different job in a different company... but not really. 9 months later I left for a company I stayed at for 5 years. So for all intents and purposes, my first two jobs lasted me a total of 8 years - whereas the next two spanned little more than a year (5 1/2 months and 10 months, respectively). Anyway, just felt like celebrating that milestone. I might have something interesting to say in the next few days... possibly even tomorrow.
