Congrats CJ!! Maybe you can bring the donuts to the next scrimmage

thanks guys I still have one more interview this am. The sat. office is in carlsbad so we will see what happens either way, I gets me a job!!!!

2 1/2 weeks and counting!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel like I can relate with you on this one CJ.
I took about a 9 year detour in my life (2 years in Texas & 7 years in Sacramento) where surfing just was no longer a part of my life with the end goal of securing the future possibility of placing myself in the position to be able to move to the coast with the experience needed to land the job and the finances to buy a house.
It is worth it now, but there were some doubtful days fer sure.
The joy of finally being released from inland prison is incredible.
I hear the sound of freedom! I hope it all works out as you planned!
Get wet!

CJ, congratulations on the Dylanesque title and on all the job offers... and in this economy! You scored.

Good on ya CJ, it's great to be able to surf w/o it turning into a driving expedition , what kind of work do you do anyway ?

Same here - 6 years in Washington DC for me. Goal achieved, I'll never do it again.

Keep us posted CJ!

Maybe there's hope for me.
Congrats CJ

I am a railroad signalman. I am now (officially) a signal supervisor for the sprinter/coaster as of today at 10:30!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats CJ

Hey Landlocked,

I feel ya, bro. Don't give up the good fight. I only get to surf a few times a year (!), but I get to retire with a full pension in 4 years (and I'll only be 50). Looking forward to getting out of Tejas to my little piece of heaven on the beach in the PacNW that I've paid off over the years.

Like CJ---if ya want it bad enough, you'll make it happen.

BTW...is Hurricane Danielle gonna bring anything to the Gulf? If so, you should get on it.

Ok I already quit the coaster and will start for a Railroad consulting company in Carlsbad for a way better package!!!!

Hey Kid, You will be retiring to the PacNW not long before I exit the PacNW to retire to a sunny third world nation. And I'll only be 62 But before I go I will bequeath to you my position in the lineup

Huge Congrats
Another Kneelo in the North County lineup.
