Goodbye to All That

Hello Friday job-shoppers and welcome to the final regular edition of DCPA+CJ!

As noted earlier, I am ending this 11+ year, 3,074-post (good grief, that's amazing) enterprise because it's time to reduce the sitting-in-front-of-a-computer hours in my life.  I doubt my days will come to resemble a Michelob Ultra commercial, but I think getting some more exercise and outside-time will follow.  I've enjoyed hearing from so many people over the years that have found a job through the blog or at least made their search a little easier and more fun. Folks seemed to like it, and that's why I've kept with this odd-but-fulfilling hobby.  Thanks for the job-submissions and all the kind words.

This is (most likely) the last regular edition of the blog.  I do plan to run a list of all the previously jobs with pending deadlines in one post on Sunday – and I'll probably write some job-searching advice and a big set of relevant job-board links in the next couple weeks.

Feels a little weird to be signing off right in these unsettling times, but otherwise it's been great. Good luck in your job-searches & all things and feel free to drop me a line if you ever feel like chatting.
