I think I'd actually be working on a different project, but I don't have the details yet since I haven't signed an NDA (and wouldn't be able to share them even if I did). But, hey, if it's bad, maybe I can make it better.
The big question Nathan, is what do youexpect to get out of the job?
Does it align itself with your goals, be it short term or long term?
Do you see yourself doing this for 1/3/5 years from now?
That's the thing -- I don't really know. At the moment I'm just kind of kicking back and enjoying life. There are a couple organizations around here that put on enough medium/large LAN parties that my friends and I go almost every month, then I have a few friends that have small 3-4 person LAN parties almost every weekend, or we go play real paintball (or both).
Between some of the disputes I've seen some of my friends go through with wives/fiancees/girlfriends and annoying neighbor children, I'm not sure I want to start a family any time soon. I kind of like the single life. I can buy cool toys without getting chewed out or run off and go some place at a moment's notice.
So... I guess best case here's what I'm hoping for:
- The work itself will be a lot more interesting. I'll feel more motivated to complete tasks.
- Environment will be loose and fun.
- Lots of "testing" will need to be done.
Part of worktime = playtime.
- Lots of people with common interests to hang out with.
- Neighbors that can speak English well.
- Some attractive females on the off chance I decide I do want a girlfriend (Carolina girls aren't the best in the world...)
- More tech-oriented activities, stores, and people around.
- More stuff to do in general.
