good job dude. what are you going to do with it? or are they just giving you a raise?

i was supposed to graduate by now but my old job held me up. i've got 3 semesters left of design. then to RCA Automotive Design for master. i say don't stop there, get your masters and make your mark. it's a long 4 years more, but it's not a lot once you've gotten used to it.

Me?

I've been working for the Bureau of Land Management (Department of the Interior) for almost a year now, got a permanent position in Socorro NM about 7 months ago. I get about a 8K raise for this though, and finally can go to work full time again.

So, I can retire at 57 now, with 37 years of federal service.

To say the least, I'm SET.

Thanks everyone.

Mwood, congrats, you too steezy.

thats great!! What about health benefits? And you can now finish up the turbo, move to a bigger place, and get that genesis. Not bad at all. Must be a great feeling to get all that out of the way. This semester was a eternity for me. It sucks to have so much pressure on yourself every day. What Made you go into geology?

silvertibbs!!!!! Did you get taller? Haha. That is AWESOME. Wish I could do that. Incredible.

Congrats to everyone!!

Unfortunately, I still have two years left, but I did manage to pull through calculus II which is a tremendous hurtle in my book. I'm looking forward to the day when I never need to do homework.
