A full day of interview

We had breakfast at Good Pastures (we seem to have breakfast there whenever we're in town - good food and close to the hotel) and headed over to the office. Susie dropped me off and headed off to see if there were any other options for her in town (other than transferring to Parachute and staying with Mtn BOCES). Met with the IT/IS/SA guy - at least he can have all the computer headaches so I don't have to worry about it. They had me sit in on the weekly production meeting - where they got the chance to complain about all their engineering problems. At least there weren't too many and most seemed to be nagging wear-n-tear and basic maintenance issues. Sat in with the Sales manager and met with a bunch of other people (I don't remember many of the names so don't ask!) they seem to be a pretty good bunch.
Lunch with the Op's Mgr (another Robert) and Jim with the requisite many more questions. Back to the office and some discussion about the pay and benefits. Then off to the other 2 transmitting facilities - each with their own issues. One of them has a building that one side is slowly sinking into the ground. Of course that building is cinderblock so there are some nice large cracks running down the wall and a dead backup xmtr. The other site is above the Colo. Monument with some decent views and a few problems (FM transmitter interfering with a cell carrier and a possible bad socket).

The Site and a cockeyed view
Of course (after the tours and a short break) we went out for dinner at a local steak and seafood joint with Jim, his wife, the sales manager and his wife.
Before dropping us off back at the hotel (where they met the Killer Kellydog) Jim asked me to let him know our decision.
