I'm leaving

[webman]

It's been a bit of a long process, but I've finally escaped the clutches of Education and got a new job!

 

I will be leaving the school that I attended as a student for 5 years, and worked as an IT Technician for a further 8 years. From January, I will be working as a Web Developer in Newcastle

 

There are numerous reasons for my decision to move on - no progression route, the school being unable to fully support the direction and area I want to focus on, the unrealistic salary, the demands, expectations, lack of common sense and forward-planning from staff... and so on. I feel this is the right move for me, and the right time to do it.

 

But fear not! Edugeek won't be getting rid of me that easily (sorry to disappoint MK-2) as I'll definitely be sticking around

Congratulations and best of luck in your new job.

[JoeBloggs]

Congrats... you won't look back

Does this mean @bossman is without a lacky? lol. Enjoy your new job

[Oaktech]

Best of luck, edugeek is for life, not just for your lunch hour!

[Dos_Box]

Well done

[rad]

congrats on the new job.

ZeroHour, just a warning, if he stays, I'm employing my most leet hacking skills to take this place down........any chance you could give me the admin password as a bit of a head start? (what, too soon?)

 

Congrats though, I do know the feeling. On a slightly more selfish note, does this mean classroombookings will stop development?

[Messa]

Congrats on the new job!

[CyberNerd]

well done webman

[Netman]

Yer, good luck chap....

[Domino]

FINALLY!

 

We all know Craig's destined for great web developer-y things - that's great news

 

What does the company do?

Congrats to another escapee @Webman There are a few of us moving on/out at the end of this term... somehow I don't think we'll be leaving edugeek though!

[TechMonkey]

Well done webman!

[webman]

Thanks for all the messages folks

 

Nice try MK-2! Classroombookings will still be developed... I might just need some more help from people willing to test things further like LDAP and (later on) SIMS stuff Personal virtual machines will only go so far.

 

The company I will be working at is fairly small, and mainly do brochure-style websites but also do some stuff for the NHS. There's a SaaS arm of the company as well.

Congratulations! I hope it is everything you wish for. What is poor bossman going to do without you though:(

Well Done Webman. I am sure Bossman valued your abilities & contribution, even if the school didn't.

Congratulation and don't be too much of a stranger!

Nice one.

Fantastic news Craig ... I hope you are going to have a break from work and still make it down to BETT to catch up with people / Annoy the staff on the Impero stand (oops ...)

 

So, are you going to show the other where the escape tunnel is or do the others have to dig their own?
