    At General Dynamics. :) The job is supposed to be converted to civil service in August. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing....

                  My first programming job was at General Dynamics. :-D Actually I was an engineer, but since I designed automated test equipment I had to program everything I designed.

                    Have you prepared answers to all the usual questions? Describe a time you've had conflict with another person and how you resolved the situation. Why are you leaving your current position? What are you looking for from this company? Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Do I look fat in this?

                      Best of luck John, hope you get it.

                      All right, you guys, I got eight crates of Ipecac from Mort. All on my tab. Now, whoever goes the longest without puking gets the last piece of pie in the fridge.

                              One day a guy came in and said that my code code sucks. He hasn't been back to work since (he appears to have just "moved away"). I'll let you draw your own conclusions.

                              No. For a short girl, I think you've made a bold fashion statement.

                                  One day a guy came in and said that my code code sucks. He hasn't been back to work since (he appears to have just "moved away"). I'll let you draw your own conclusions.

                                  The CEO's wife started stalking me, and I felt uncomfortable about it.

                                  No. For a short girl, I think you've made a bold fashion statement.
