Good morning Utah!

After a marathon session of cleaning this past weekend, I have turned over my Colorado house to the new tenants. They both seem like cool people, both do art, kind of quirky. I had my suit out while packing, they were moving stuff in. There were really cool about it, think it's awesome they have a furry for a landlord.
I'm now in Salt Lake City, Utah. Had my first job interview yesterday. It would be an interesting job, assembling robotic prosthesis. There are several areas where I could work within the company, great benefits package, accrued flexible time off, good pay right out of the box. It would be going to work, sitting at a bench for hours on end, day after day, doing a ton of miniature, mechanical assembly. It has been years since I have operated a bench for a living. While part of me would really like the job, after sleeping on it, I have to wonder if I can adapt to a job where there are no windows, hours of monotony. Been working outside, or in shops, in dynamic situations, for so long
The job market seems to be in reasonable shape here. This was my first application in 18 months, and I consider it a really strong positive that I was considered. I want work that can last, but part of me says don't just take the first thing that comes around. Then again, this would be a really good job. It's a good problem to have!
