Damn, I figured this would happen.

Posted on September 20, 2004 By admin 2 Comments on Damn, I figured this would happen.

Went to see my old boss at Ste-Justine to talk about their IT needs and the possible collaboration they want to do with IBM. The project is really interesting, and I have an idea the job is mine for the taking if I want it. The only thing is that I need to take a pay cut if I want it. As in 10% of what I'm making now. I'm not sure I can afford that, with the lifestyle I've grown used to and the long-term financial plans I've made. He says that there's a possibility that the salary might be readjusted later on, but the first year would be tight.

I told him I'd give him an answer by the end of the week. I think my mind is already kind of made up, but it sucks that I have to say no and limit my options to the McGill thing only.

Meh.

Quote of the day

In the second scroll of Wen the Eternally Surprised a story is written concerning one day when the apprentice Clodpool, in a rebellious mood, approached Wen and spake thusly: "Master, what is the difference between a humanistic, monastic system of belief in which wisdom is sought by means of an apparently nonsensical system of questions and answers, and a lot of mystic gibberish made up on the spur of the moment?" Wen considered this for some time, and at last said: "A fish!" And Clodpool went away, satisfied.
--(Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time)
