[Today’s run: 3.2 miles. Also a gym day]<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I just passed 4 years at my current job. I’m still enjoying it and the people seem to think I am accomplishing something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There has been a lot of growth in software people where I work. The consulting\/placement place I work for used to be electrical and mechanical engineers. But at least for my work location I think the software people are now in the majority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I anticipate working for a few more years. We would like to get the mortgage paid off and a couple of other things while we still have a healthy income. Also I have good medical insurance benefits and we need to keep that supported until we have alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, I get a generous 401k match at the current job, and a good hunk of vacation time now. So as long as I’m being useful it seems like a good idea to just keep going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have mentioned in my last couple of annual reviews in the “what do you want to be doing in 5 years” section, that I would eventually like to trim back and maybe be part time at some point. They actually responded very well to that I idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
