Last Day at Dell

So it's finalized! My last day at Dell will be March 14th. I have been contracting at Dell since March 26th, 2007, so it means I will have been here just 1 week shy of a year.

I just did a technical interview yesterday with Compass Learning, which is an educational software company located in downtown Austin. I think I did pretty well. I got just about all of his questions right, although I did have to take an educated guess as to when a table variable is slower than a temp table. I'll see if I can get an in person interview next week. If they give me a good offer, I'll probably take it as I believe you have to make the money while you can, not when you have to. If I don't get this offer, I'll probably try to take some time off, although that might be hard since the Austin job market is still quite strong (although it's probably weakening since the economy is going into a recession) and there are a lot of good opportunities out there at the moment.
