I Have a New Job . . . 0

. . . just like the old job.

I’ve been sold, along with the rest of my division and our product line.

Temporarily, we are still in the same building, in the same office, surrounded by our former co-workers. Sometime in the next two or three months, we will be moving to our own building somewhere within about 10 miles of where we are now.

I’ve moved over to the new email (Monday, my old employer will set of automatic forwarding of emails from the old address to the new address), I’ve finally gotten used to answering the phone with the new company name, and I’ve been porting some of our documents over to the new logo; I’ll probably also work on the support portion of our website to remove [old company name] and put in [new company name], but it’s still the strangest new job I’ve ever had.

I’m doing the same work, with the same people, at the same desk, using the same phone, computers, fax, and other equipment that I’ve used for the past seven and a half years.

The first paycheck arrived today, and it was signed by someone else. But it came.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
