Takeoffs optional, landings mandatory

Matt here - Takeoffs optional, landings mandatory is a mantra I've been saying the past month or so. Fortunately, last week I found a good landing spot at Boeing and will be starting my new job there in December. It is down at Boeing Field at the wind tunnel in a group called customer coordination. The opportunity to work on a lot of tests sounds like an enjoyable one. I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who helped me out in any way over the last month, from just talking to resume help to new people with whom to network and so on.

For the record, I was not actually laid off; I received a 60 day WARN notice that I would be laid off from my current position. Jarring nevertheless, but it gave me enough time to get things in order and find a new job with no gap in employment.
