I'm Sorry!!

Ok, I owe you guys an apology. I think I freaked all of you out for no reason =) My last post on the old blog may have seemed like something went wrong with the job offer because of the blog. Not true.

So I got this offer and I was stressed and confused because (1) not the location i was hoping for, (2) extremely long hours and weekends .. to the point where he was concerned about me spending an hour a day on iws, (3) the pay was much lower than i expected.

But then there's the positives - (1)amazing opportunity at a startup - my dream come true, coming from being raised in Silicon Valley, (2) working directly with the ceo who is a multimillionaire and took his last company public, (3) having a job where i actually see the results of my work and am directly effecting the company's progress.

So in the end, 2 days ago, I said yes. I'm in cali right now and will start a few days after getting back.

The reason I changed my blog was because I realized that if anyone searched -my name- -my business- "blog" - they would come directly to my blog. And being in the internet field, I wouldn't be surprised if employers would do a search like that (hell, I probably would if I was hiring someone). So I decided I need to be more anonymous, especially with my name and business so I'm not easily searchable. This way i can bitch and moan about work without getting caught =)

Sorry again to those of you who emailed/commented and were concerned .. I should have re-read what I wrote so as to not freak you out!

Ok off to work for my parents and enjoy the cali sun =)
