I've changed the stylesheet for the index page to something more interesting than white, blue and gray. Now they're brown, blue and gray! Much better.
The colors are the same that I used in the Photo Gallery. Since the other pages use a different stylesheet, I'll have to make those changes some other time.
So, it looks like I got a job. Two, in fact.
I interviewed for a unix job back on April 2nd, with The State. The pay was actually pretty good for The State, but of course those benefits... They offered me the job, and I of course accepted, because I had no job, and on balance it was a pretty good opportunity.
Then I got another job, one that I had left for dead. Slightly better pay, insanely better benefits. I'd-be-crazy-to-turn-down benefits. So, I did the only thing I could. I called The State and told them I couldn't take the job. I felt terrible about it; I was supposed to start on May 12th, and called them on May 5th.
The woman who interviewed and hired me was not happy, not that I blame her. I feel bad, I'm sure my bailing has stressed her out and left them in a lurch. But, there are a lot of good people looking for work, and I doubt they'll ever miss me.
I've known of unix admins around here who have been out of work for 12-18 months, so I feel very lucky to have gotten one job offer, much less two!
I start my new job on May 12th, unless a reorg defunds the position while I'm waiting...
Yay! I'm going to get paid again! I will have been out of work for a total of 7 weeks, and won't have accomplished a damn thing except throwing my back out cleaning a tub and spending the last two weeks sofa-ridden. I'm old.
I've gotten the Photo Gallery up and running.
Finally. Have to admit I like the software a lot. Works as advertised, and fairly straightforward to customize. Lots of files to edit, though. Glad that's done.
