@musicman just got off the phone with Sarah! She was super friendly. She said she would get back to me Wednesday or Thursday.

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Wednesday, 04-Sep-2019 19:48:48 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield I realize the day is not over and it's Wednesday, but I'm curious if you've heard anything :) -

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 09-Sep-2019 14:51:40 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield Did you follow-up with Nik about JFrog? I think JFrog is a little more open to people moving to work. That's what Nik did. I hope I'm wrong about Perforce, and the new management, but I just saw a new job listing that suggesting that things haven't changed (different team though, so who knows) -

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Tuesday, 10-Sep-2019 17:39:07 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield last time this happened (just 3-4 months ago) they interviewed a ton of people and we kept getting all these false indications that things were getting close, so who knows. -

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Thursday, 12-Sep-2019 19:24:53 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield @kai I'm looking for someone to be the region head for Northeast (CT, MA, ME, NH, NY State, RI, VT) for the Creative Commons Community Music Awards. It solely consists of picking an Artist of the Year. Do you know anyone that would be interested? We have some other regions available too, if you know people that might be interested in another region.
I haven't heard anything new about the position. -

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Sep-2019 17:18:47 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield three are going to in-person interview phase.
Nik's not happy at JFrog, but I still think you should apply there, or at least talk to Nik about why he's not happy and see if his reasons seem valid to you if you're serious about getting out of Buffalo.
He's an immigrant and my personal opinion is he just isn't going to be happy here and needs to move back to Europe. -
copyright respecter (kai@ajin.la)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Sep-2019 18:27:54 UTC copyright respecter @musicman Thanks for keeping me in the loop!
I have Nik's number 😊

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 23-Sep-2019 18:44:47 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield We hired someone, but if we're smart, we'll be hiring someone else soon.
Also, I suspect we're going to keep hiring in Minneapolis no matter what our "official" policy is, so if you get another call, you might try saying you would prefer Minneapolis.
In all honesty, I am shocked we didn't hire someone in Alameda for the morale of the people in Alameda. It's all about the $, I guess... -

copyright respecter (kai@ajin.la)'s status on Tuesday, 24-Sep-2019 19:57:27 UTC copyright respecter @musicman I…don't think I'm willing to move to Minneapolis, even though I'm sure it would be fine… 😅

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 30-Sep-2019 01:25:36 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield Minneapolis is awesome. Not sure why you wouldn't want to live here, particularly when moving from Buffalo.
snowfall average:
Buffalo, New York 94.7
Minneapolis, Minnesota 54.0 -

Douglas A. Whitfield (musicman@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 30-Sep-2019 12:14:09 UTC Douglas A. Whitfield well, Alameda isn't Los Angeles. I have never been to LA, but I have heard it is a crap #cycling city. Minneapolis, on the other hand, is often rated in the top 2, if not #1, in cycling.
It can be absolutely bonkers cold here occassionally, but that doesn't stop us from cycling. Just put on another layer. :)
