    The Official "Got a New Job" Thread

    There are enough people here that have recently gotten new jobs and are turning a new chapter in their life that I felt the need to start a thread on the subject to announce new news. Heck...we need a recurring thread just to keep up with Clifton & Matt to see where they are working these days!!! (Kidding guys. :wink: )

    I'll start out by saying that it looks as though I'll be relocating to beautiful Beaumont, TX in the coming months. (I had always known a change was in the making around now and I am pleased that it's still here in Texas only an hour or so away.)

    I've accepted a position within the company at one of our Polyethelene Plants there and I look forward to the change. Little further drive to track events, but not a lot of change for my racing life. Just means we'll now have representation in Dallas, Austin, Houston...and now, Beaumont!!! The 4 major cities of Texas. AI/CMC is officially growing eastward!!! :-)

    PS- Got a New Job???

    I was born in Beaumont in 1957. You may not know this but you better get a permit to carry (and get your wife one too). Parts of Beaumont are as bad as any city in the US. My grand parents (both sets) lived outside of the city in their later years to get away from the crime. I know there are good parts of town but it would scare the crap out of me to live there! That said both my parents went to high school there and their friends still live there. I'll talk to you this weekend.

    Well, I guess I will share as well...

    I'm leaving my position at the civil engineering firm (Bury+Partners) to work for a small independent oil and gas company! The oil and gas company just happens to be owned by Holly's dad!!!

    Huge change, but should give me some free time down the road.

    My office will be at home and some travel to south Texas occasionally.

    Look for a new sponsor on the hood of my car soon!!!
