Manic
My friends are having a hard time dealing with me in this newfound manic state that I'm in.
Why wouldn't I be excited? I've signed a contract for a decent job.
Let's look at what I'm getting in detail:
Plus, I get to work in one of those worker-friendly high tech office centers. Lots of windows and natural light. Lots of companies (which is great for networking opportunities) work in the center, and there's a lot of cross company projects.
All in all, its looking good. What's there NOT to be happy about?

Let's look at what I'm getting in detail:
- A significant step up in pay from my former job
- a significant step down in my cost of living
- Full Health, Dental, and Optical Insurance benefits
- Tutiton Reimbursement for a Masters or M.B.A. depending on where I want my career to go
- Reimbursement for expenses for certification examinations
- What looks like a 7 to 10 minute commute (with traffic)
- Opportunities for International Travel
- Paid Holidays
- Paid Vacation Time
