Mental note: don't chug the rest of my coffee right before going to interview. Nervousness + caffeine and sugar rush + tendency to talk too much = me being a chatterbox. Blah blah blah. I'm even typing faster.
So, yeah. interviewed with the networking group over here. Seem like decent guys, totally not what I worked on before. Switches, servers, and VPNs, internal stuff, that sort of dilly-o. I think I impressed upon them that I could pick it up without too much trouble. They are good with flexible hours, and are good with me having to learn the new systems. And should I get over there, I bet the first project I'd get cracking on is do-cu-men-ta-tion, because they have no-ne.
After I got back, Connie B., my placement person, let me know that they interview a *lot* of people within the company, but usually hire outside people, so I shouldn't get my hopes up. I'm fine with that.
OK, enough work talk for now.
