The Red Brick Times

Be careful of your metaphor usage! If you denote extreme improbability by saying "when pigs fly" or "a snowballs chance in hell" or "when whatley gets a job" be warned! One of the above has happened! Well, sort of. Two guys I've worked with in previous jobs started their own company a few years ago. They've been so successful that they're now in the process of spinning off a second related company. Though they weren't ready to hire for the new firm 'til late spring or so we were able to negotiate a scenario (variable duties, low pay) where I could come on board sooner. A lot sooner. Like last Monday. So far so good I guess, though it remains to be seen if I can contribute enough to the company at this very early stage of its development to continue on. Keep your fingers crossed (and watch out for flying pigs).
