Starting a New Career

It has been six weeks since I have been let go from my last job. I was serving a senior director of marketing and product for a tech company in the video surveillance market.

I liked my job. A lot.

I liked the people I worked with. I liked doing my job and I found it interesting a challenging.

I even think I did a pretty good job, but...

My company had to cut 30% of its employees due to the downturn and I guess I was a little too expensive.

So after moping around for a week and watching everything recorded on my Tivo, I am back on track. I have had several job interviews but right now I am pretty excited about starting my own enterprise. I am not going to reject a good offer if it comes along (I have a wife two little girls who love to spend) but what I really want to do is work for myself.

I have several ideas I am currently working on and I intend to share my progress or lack of.

I also intend to improve my "post once every two years" record - but I am not making any promises (;
