Brian, update me. What's the job deal?

He's going to put the plastic tips on shoelaces.

Haha, not quite! I landed a job in Coopersville, MI working for Saturn Electronics & Engineering as a Manufacturing Engineer. They make OEM hydraulic solenoids for automatic transmissions for all automotive brands, a lot of high-speed automation and technology. The place is great, well lit, and so clean you can eat off the floor! Plus, Karen has a job she can step in to, so it really works out. It's about 45 minutes SE of where I grew up, so it'll be nice to stop by my grandparent's house after work for cocktail hour.

Estimators come Monday (Mayflower and United Van Lines), and we move out Thursday!

I'll miss y'all and want you to know you are always welcome up north!

Brian,

I am heading to the UP sometime in the next year or two. Need to get good info from you soon.
Thanks for all the help wrenching.

Travel safe and good luck.

Geez man you just learned how to properly use "y'all" in context, and now you're headed back North? Seems bittersweet....

Congrats on what sounds like a great opportunity, and on getting closer to family. Check in with us if you get back to the Land of Milk and Honey, and if I get that way we'll give you a shout.

 

[FineWynsFJ40]

Thanks, Tim! I'll give you guys a shout when I'm down, likely the SCC will be the next time. We'll definitely be back this way to visit in the future!

Mike, where are you guys headed? UPOA tour in August? I'd be happy to help

Congrats, Brian!
