The new laptop has paid for itself already
Mr. Tldz got an e-mail from a recruiter last night. He talked to him today about the job (located near the Lindbergh MARTA station, so that should be pretty accesible) and the recruiter wanted to meet him. So thanks to Uncle R. and our neighbor across the street for driving Mr. Tldz up to the recruiter’s office in Alpharetta and watching Agent Murphy for a couple of hours, respectively. (And the Agent came home with a bag full of fun hand-me-down toys!) At one point in the interview, the recruiter said, “Not to be insensitive, but how do you do these things?” So Mr. Tldz said, “Do you want to see a demo?” and pulled out the laptop and got busy. The recruiter was won over.
The recruiter indicated that this company has been looking for several weeks and is getting anxious to have someone start — as in, if they had their way, someone would start next week. So we’ll see how this plays out.

We have our fingers crossed here!

I had every confidence in Mr. Tldz’s ability to wow on an interview given his charisma and computing skills, but let’s face it… a laptop *always* pays for itself.
