Default New year new job

Today I interviewed for a new job and when I left I didn't know how it went. They asked some pretty tough questions and used terms I've never heard of so I was like crap. Well not even 5 min after I left, literally I was still in the parking lot they called to offer my the position. It's a 25% bump in pay. Its over 27 miles closer round trip every day to my house, summer Fridays, get to wear jeans...Needless to say I've very excited. Plus I bought a new exhaust for the bike last night. So far this new year has been great! Thought I'd share.

Congrats!!! Great 2012 Start.......

As for myself, our Company moved to new location/ West Torrance. Better situated and they gave me a window office, litterally... i can park my RR 10 ft away from my office desk. One eye on my computer, other eye on my RR.... no pay raise yet but I'm look forward to a bonus...my 2011 sales was top 3.

Oh...Just go a goPro Hero2 for $170 & i'm stoked! can't wait to go riding and capturing so HD video with my helmet mount.....2012 rocking it! of course looking forward to ROTM for January...the 900RR section will be nom, each other LOL....
