Congrats, and best of luck to you, Mario!

Where are you planning on locating? Still in Boston, or elsewhere?

Thus I would only have to do yours and then I could retire...

I can't believe I missed noticing your sig! Hey Ertai!

Hehe hi Larry! Still rocking the OHF nick I see

I saw your thread about the search for a new job too, maybe we should all join forces and create some kind of company for us disgruntled people! Once we find some way to make money from it we're set.

On a more serious note, good luck to you too and to everyone else that is trying to find a job... these are difficult times but going forward is the only way to get past them.

Mario that's great news bro! Wishing you all the best! A recession is a great time to start a new business! (see Microsoft etc)

Ertai! Great to see you! Haven't seen you in ages man. Wow. Gratz on getting married.

Best of luck man, it's a big step!

Chewbacca · 09-01-2009, 11:54 AM

Good luck man. The 3rd best decision I ever made was firing my boss.

machinehead · 09-01-2009, 01:22 PM

Congrats Mario! Staying in the area or going elsewhere?

Great, been working for myself since I was 16, sometimes employeed by others most of the time self employeed. Now you get to work 80-100 hours a week and not make much at all

There are lots more head aches and problems with owning your own business then it looks like from the otherside. BUT IMHO it is worth it, you stand or fall own your own merits, you get to make the decisions, the choices reap the rewards, and take the risks. Your destiny is in your hands, I wish you all the luck and good business
