yeah, I was the biggest expense, and I was underpaid!

Anyways, theres nothing to protest, its a 5 person company, what they say is pretty final, and the coolest part is this, I can't collect unemployment because I have only been an actual employee for just under 3 months, I was an "independent contractor" before that...

Thanks guys, I'll find something better soon, that job was good experience, but I was not being used to my full potential and was actually pretty bored with it...

Chris: we are going to start havng nightly parties as fund raisers, you dont mind the noise right? j/p

well yes and no... I know they still need me, there is one other guy that knows the system as I do, and he has a full time job elsewhere, thats why they hired me!

They are just extremely micromanaging that company, and I think the fact that they are nearly out of money made it alot easier to justify cutting me off...

The only bad part is that they are going to the NADA show in Las Vegas, so they will probably have plenty of money soon (money they have been promising to pay me more with these past 10 months)

bah. grr, etc...

Clint - I don't mind at all - as long as I can "bring the noise" a bit as well, lol!

If you can design a program that sucks less than the one I use at work, you can probably get a job at Liberty. Hopefully you won't write it Java though, cause that's why it sucks.

I'll look tomorrow when I go in to see if we have any open positions for tech jobs.

99% of the programming jobs are in Portsmouth, NH. Doubt he wants to move that far.

Thanks Zate and Leslie, I really appreciate the help, and yes, I know JAVA is a pain in the ass... I think I am going to teach myself some PHP very soon...

Warning: TRama can get you fired.


Sorry about that dood, but it sounds from the descriptions you gave that you're better off in a way...
