If you have an addiction to SF and the memory of an elephant then you're up to date, if not. Here's short version of work history. 20 years in electrical field. COVID left me without work, then the option of way way reduced hours. Finally landed a job in data center after two months no work, two months part time at old work. New career launched. I live in silicon valley of data.

Now 1.5 years later went from lowest paid employee and nightshift to assistant to largest building on our campus over at 400k ft².

No point to this post other than a simple brag. Life's been shit recently and this is my one bright spot.
