I just said yes to a great new job!
March 8, 2007 by Toby Getsch
Right now I am very excited! There are several things to say and many thanks to hand out. If you helped me in any part of my Job Hunt, expect a personal thank you coming from me, very soon. This image here (also the new header image on this site) is a statement of the new direction I am heading. What direction is that?
I have accepted new employment with ECG Management Consultants, Inc.
ECG is headquartered in downtown Seattle, Washington and also has several offices around the country. The title for this new position is Knowledge Manager. It entails a number of things and I am certain I will learn a lot. I am looking forward to sharing new experiences and growing along with this organization. I have a lot of confidence in the direction and vision of the organization and in the management team. I feel honored that they have invited me to join with them. I think this will be a really good fit.
What does this mean for this blog and for the number of posts here? Well, that will likely change a bit. For one thing, I do not expect to have the same amount of time that I have had over the past months, to dedicate to writing and reading. I do expect that I will still follow along many memes and will still write about various topics. I know I will always continue to read as much as possible. The change here is that my interests and where I lend my attention will likely adjust to new challenges and new opportunities. Right now I want to make sure that I set myself up here, to under-promise and over-deliver!
Thank you again, if you helped me in any way. And, stay tuned for more Tweblog adventures in the very near future. I am not going away. However, I am refocusing and taking on some new challenges.
Best regards,
~Toby Getsch



Congratulations Toby!
I am shocked, SHOCKED, that you didn’t take us up on our offer to test our software all day for free…. but I *guess* I understand
Good luck on your new gig.
Thanks John. Although, I do have to admit, from a development perspective, the salary you offered would localize very well into any language.
That’s smart! SMRT.
Completely off topic I realize, but the KERMIT PHOTO?!?! I would have thought that had made its way into the “I can’t believe I did that” file long ago
Eric: Hehe… Every time I take that down, someone lets me know about it and says, “No! Bring Kermit back.” It’s just one of those silly things. Maybe it’s branding. Yikes!
CONGRATULATIONS !!!
GOOD THINGS TAKE A WHILE, RIGHT?
I WISH YOU THE BEST FOR YOUR NEW JOB!
Thanks Matti (aka Speedo).

Hey Erin~ Congrats to YOU! Oh, I miss those days en Mexico. Westy and I were just talking about you, trying to figure out how to get ‘in’ trouble again.
[...] It’s been a week since my last post. The break has been very productive and a good rest. I look forward to getting back to a little more frequency here. For right now, I just wanted to comment quickly on my new job. I’m still saying yes.
