congratulations dave.  cheers for the new job.  if you do half as much in that job as you do as a moderator on this forum, you will be a huge success and looked up to for your awesome mind and heart.

Congratulations seem to be the order, so congrats Dave.

[Dave in Tenn]

Thanks all.  I'm really nervous, but trying to hide it well.     Start tomorrow morning.

Nice Dave, the nervousness will leave in a nick of time.

Are any of you guys as young as you used to be? 

What I lack in youth I shall make up in grim determination and pure cussedness.

[Rhys 🕊]

No my brain does not allow me to think back that far but then I'm not as old as I'm yet to be either. I'll be happy with the age I am and go with that.

[cjwood]

hey wisdom of old people
we should be revered - or at least 'eared'
like elephants we remember bones of our fallen and the trails of our youth
YAY for it all - we are useful when we can teach someone
How about when we remember? They too will learn
arr sorry - forgot that decorum is required when you are over 40
yes I remember is not only a dance - but a fact

Shine Dave - between me and you - its the same stuff - just dished up differently
and the wheel of industry has a cog that can say NO??? or Why?
excuse me for voicing it all
My Dad always said 'The squeakng wheel - gets the oil" - wow true - lets keep it that way

[cjwood]

elephants are so utterly wonderful, beautiful, loving creatures.   
unless you mess with their young, or a big bull elephant chases you.  then they do not appear so loving.  but still wonderful and beautiful.

you are as wise and strong as an elephant dave.  carry on with your bad self in that new job.

you will do well!  don't be afraid you are a wonderful person

[microlink]

Hello,
I would like to know how your job is going. It not like going into grade one, I don't think! You can not be that nervous. 
I too know you will do well and God will be with you.

[Dave in Tenn]

It's physically harder than I have been used to for most of the recent past.  I have come home sore and exhausted most days, and gone to work still a little beat from the previous day.  This morning, however, I feel pretty good.  I've been through this before...first your're weak, then you get strong, then--if it continues without rest--you get weak again. 

It's certainly not my 'dream job', but I like the people there and it may turn into something 'better', but not if I don't do THIS well. 

Anyway, gotta run go do it.

I would really love to know how many of us here on the forum are working in our 'DREAM' job.
For me it's survival and I thank God that I don't really hate my job. After 15 years at it, I am cool with it, but I don't love it. 
I can't stop giving God thanks that I've been continuously employed!
