Ja! Productions decided to hire me
Hey, it looks like you're new here to my blog! You may want to consider subscribing to my RSS feed and you'll automatically get notified when I post a new blog entry. If web feeds aren't your thing then why not join my email list by clicking here. Thanks for stopping by.
A special thanks must go out to Mike Stopforth and Dave Duarte for helping me to find a new job. Mike and Dave introduced me to Johan Reyneke of Ja! Productions and after a lengthy process I received an offer of employment from Johan this morning.
I’m very excited about this position as I believe I will really be able to shine in my new job opportunity. Johan and his team now know the best and worst of me and I really believe this has set up a great foundation for us to work well together. As I mentioned to them yesterday I honestly feel like they really get who I am and it’s for this reason that I really wanted this job.
So, what will I do? Well I’m going to be managing some very exciting web-based projects and I will have the freedom to do what I know how to do best. I will also be working with Mike and Dave on various items which is very exciting for me as I have come to respect these two gentlemen very much.
All in all it’s been a good day and I’m looking forward to February 1st.

Grant, if you don’t mind me saying you’re a cheeky chop
but thanks for the support!
As for Grabble it is very much into the development of the second phase and I aint letting go of this one anytime soon – despite your *generous* offer.
Keep watching here for developments of Grabble2 as I’m almost there…

Great to hear Justin. The work you did many moons ago on my site back in the Joomla days (while I was in Jo’burg) was great, and I know the talents you bring to the table will serve you well in this next part of your journey. From the land of Houston, congrats!

Tertia – no need to be sad as you’re still going to be hearing a lot from me in the future. Lots of exciting things in the pipeline involving the blogosphere so watch this space.
Dave – So sorry I missed the 27 dinner last night. Various personal issues kept me away but there is no way I’ll miss the next one.
Stii – Thanks for the support mate – always appreciated!
Paul – My long lost friend. So good to hear from you and I thank you for your kind words. It’s good to have your support and I miss our old times together. Hope to see more comments from you on this blog!
