Haha that's our dream solution! Scott just needs to get some promotions and double his salary first But I don't think that's going to happen soon enough!

But really... Scott's company is desperate for people. If they are still looking for staff in a few months, I might try applying for a different department... structural instead of civil. We would be working on the same floor of the same office building, but we'd not only be on totally different projects, we'd be under totally different bosses. So it would eliminate any competition we feel against each other. I am by no means an expert structural designer, but in college I did my big final technical project and presentation on a building I designed, joint by joint, beam by beam, and it did really interest me back then. I just took a job here because I got an offer before I had even thought of sending out resumes! It was just easier. But maybe going in a different direction with my career might give me the refreshment I need.
