I'm back

Yea, it's been awhile since I've written in here. I've thought about it many times, but decided that if I couldn't say anything nice, I shouldn't say anything at all. So, for an update for all those that read this, which I'm sure is zero. At the end of June I got a job at Cingular Wireless in their Advanced Network Services doing Data Support, so no stupid customer service calls, everything is technical. In early June however, I had applied for a cool Embedded Software Engineer job at Boeing, didn't hear from them forever, then in July I get this email about filling out an online application for this job at Boeing, so I filled it out, and then didn't hear anything, didn't hear anything, did I mention that I didn't hear anything from them, finally in early September I get an email saying "Hey, we want to interview you." Sweet diggity yo, I was so scared, got there for the interview, it was such a cake interview, it was like sitting down with Dr. Wall and chatting ... needless to say, I got the job. So in late Sept. I sent an email to my manager at Cingular letting him know that there's a strong possiblity that I'll be leaving in a few days, oh yea he was on vacation at the time, he finally gets back from vacation on my day off, so I can't talk to him, so the next day I go into work, he's out sick, and I'm like "I QUIT!!!" I talk to 1 of the other managers, who has been kept up to speed by my manager, I end up just giving him my badge and he walks me out to my car. So, now I work at Boeing, and love it, it's such a cool job, reading specs all day isn't fun, but it's all part of the job.

  • Wow, this person didn't even read my entry, all they did was do a search for Cingular, then posted his canned statement. No where in my entry to I talk about Cingular Wireless plans, or anything about what they provide. Only thing I said about Cingular is a worked there, then I quit.

  • i personally was dissatisfied with your cingular wireless information. i found the help section useless. and nowhere did it explain how to turn my phone on, or make a phone call, or get the peanut butter out of the speaker. then i went to an ACTUAL SITE ABOUT CINGULAR, and found the information i was looking for (excpet for the peanut butter thing). so i think until you add more information about cingular, you should not advertise yourself as a cingular website.

  • Wow. I too am sorely disappointed by your complete disregard for the cingular wireless users on your site. I think I might sue you for false advertising. BTW, how do you get peanut butter out of those little holes in the speaker? I mean I like peanut butter but not in the speaker. I tried to lick it out but that didn't work. I prayed to spirit animale for assistance but that didn't help. Anyway I've said too much.
