I started a new job about two weeks ago. I am doing basically the same thing I was doing...but for $3k more. I normally do not do this but I had to walk out on EDS. The new company wanted me ASAP. I had a lot of pre-employment stuff that had to clear (like drug test and background check). When someone puts in a letter of resignation at EDS, they tend to escourt that person out immediately. You get paid the last two weeks you would have worked, but they take your company stuff and walk you out the door. The last thing I wanted to do was put in notice at EDS, have something go wrong with getting employed at the new place, and being unemployed. I finished my last day of work at EDS on a Wednesday morning. I started the new job on Thursday night. When I was finished on Wednesday morning, I left the building and went down the street to a QT for coffee and a doughnut. After about 10-15 minutes, I returned to work, found an interoffice envelope, put my badge and other company owned material, and slid the envelope under the manager's door. I started work at the new place the next day. One of the drawbacks to the new job is access to internet sites...like this one. At EDS I could surf this site and others. This one is blocked at the new job. But I'm making a lot more money then I was.
