kinda weird, really.
I was hired by Allaire in November of 2000. As we were in the u-haul on I-80 outside of Salt Lake while driving to Boston, I get a call from my recruiter saying we (Allaire) were bought by Macromedia. My only question was "Do I still have a job when I get there?"
Of all the people I initially worked with (20 of us), I am the only engineer left (there is one qa person as well, we started within a week of eachother and were the last hires of the group).
And now, basically five years later, I will be an Adobe employeee.
weird.
