A few times this year I’ve posted about my job stressing me out and also a Dilbert cartoon describing the situation at work. Although my job wasn’t the only thing that kept me busy and mostly off the bike this year, it really sucked the energy from me. An anonymous poster commented the following on the Dilbert cartoon post.
I can so identify with crappy working conditions. I’ll say some prayers that I read of a new job for you rather than see you in the news because you’ve strung up your boss by his toenails and are now forcing him/her to watch the Wiggles, Blue’s Clues and Thomas the Tank in an endless loop.
The prayers have been answered and my boss wasn’t forced to watch the Wiggles, Blue’s Clues or Thomas the Tank.
Tomorrow is my last day at my current job and I’ll start my new job next Monday. I’m excited about my new job. It’s at a small company which is something I like. My new manager used to work with one of my good friends at HP. One of my co-workers has finished the Leadville 100 8 times, 6 of them on a single speed. He’s currently training for the 24 Hours in the Old Pueblo. I won’t have to get up from my desk to see outside and I’ll have a view of Pikes Peak out the window. I’m sure there will be some things I don’t like but there’s plenty of things to like about it.

Rob that’s sooooooo great to hear! Maybe we’ll get to ride together now 😀 Anyway I’m really excited for you and hope this helps everything.
It’ll take some time to get a good base back and weight down but I hope to be able to do some good rides by spring. Maybe we can go have some fun in Fruita or Moab.
