Another Chapter Begins

One week ago, today, I was let go from my position as a SolidWorks AE. Honestly, I wasn’t overly surprised by it and, coincidentally, I’d been looking for another position anyway. (I could go off on a rant right now about the whole situation, but it would serve no purpose.) While I enjoyed being an AE, I didn’t like certain aspects of the company I was working for so, ultimately, it’s for the best. One of the good things about it is I can look for a new position freely, without having to do it on the "downlow". I will say, though, I hate job hunting and all that goes along with it. I know that I don’t interview well, which causes a bit of consternation when I do go to interview. Usually, I’m up front about it so the interviewer knows before-hand. My hope here is that they won’t be too critical afterwards. I don’t know that it actually works or not…

Anyway, I know it’s been a while since I posted anything worthwhile, but I plan to get back on the horse soon and regale you all with witty posts. So, be patient my loyal reader (not a typo by the way), I’ll be back soon.

Welcome back, Jeff.

I hope you picked up a few things from the reseller while working there. That is the one perk that sometimes makes enduring that experience worthwhile.
Looking forward to seeing more of what you have to say.

About Jeff's Tool Shed

While most of what I write will be about SolidWorks, or partner products, from time to time I've been known to go off on random rants about whatever crosses my mind.

Legal B.S.: The thoughts, opinions and commentary posted on Jeff's Tool Shed are mine and mine only. I speak only for myself and no other person(s) or entities, real or imagined.

To satisfy (I hope) FTC disclosure rules: I am provided with non-commercially licensed software and hardware for review by many companies, including Dassault Systemes. (Duh, this is a review blog) While reviewing said software and hardware, I am in contact with employees of the companies providing products involved and, occasionally, asked for feedback (again, it is a review blog). I am not compensated for any of this. DS SolidWorks Corporation has paid for my travel, accommodations, and some meals for various user group events including SolidWorks World.
