Yeah, that is why I was looking for a job for a year and a half before I landed this gig. I was ruthlessly picky. I am a damn good integration engineer/engineering technologist, and I asked a ton of questions in the three interviews I had in my search.

The third job was a great fit on both ends, which was awesome because I had wanted to work there for years, but they never had a position open.

Yeah, he and I were playing Mario Kart when that CEO got shot.
