swestrup | Tentative Jubilation!

I got back from my job interview about an two hours ago, but its taken me this long to wade through my email (all the missing email from the last few days showed up while I was out), and have a long talk with

taxlady about how it went. As to that: I have the Good News and the Bad News.

The Good News is that I've been offered a job as CTO at a new avionics startup, and will have a starting salary double that of my last job!!!

The Bad News is that the company doesn't exist yet; it doesn't even have a name. The money to pay me with is all virtual as well. The guy who hired me is scrambling to find people and put a team together, while his investors are doing various bits of paperwork that is supposed to make money appear in 2 to 3 weeks.

Sooo, its looking like its a really good job that just doesn't happen to exist quite yet. For now, I'm CTO of a unnamed company that I desperatly hope really does materialize in the next 3-6 weeks, and starts paying me. When that first paycheque clears, I'll will do a Gonzo Happy Dance, but for now, I can't help but think it all seems too good to possibly be true!
