Since the thread made a solid right turn anyway, we actually just picked up another large client with about 120 offices worldwide, including in Texas! They're busy busy looking for people in a large number of positions, and we've been fortunate enough to be selected as their sole recruitment provider.

Got 2 meetings there tomorrow aft! So even if you don't want to relocate...

Sorry, didn't mean to sound like I was tooting my horn there, just happened to be on my mind that we're doing some work in your neck of the woods as well.


Now, what are the chances that GNN actually went to the doctor's office?

at least two concussions for me.

once in high school, got checked from behind in my first game playing up on varsity...went head first into the boards. next thing i know i have coaches standing over me and my neck was jacked. sat out for a few weeks, and i think my neck is still messed up from that incident.

second time was my first time snowboarding. didn't take lessons that day. snow turned icy after the sun went down. caught an edge and hit the back of my head pretty hard...all i saw was red. next thing i know, my friend is at my side and my gloves, hat, goggles had flown everywhere. didn't see a doctor for either of those...

same here...first time that happened for me was in college i think. however, i thought it was cool as hell! reminded me of the effects of a few other certain substances.

I didn't think you were tooting your own horn at all. I'm genuinely happy for you - landing a major client with multiple national and international offices has to be a very good thing.

Toot away.
