Viva Las Vegas???
I dispite my hatred for Las Vegas....alas I must finish Architecture school. It's cheap, close and I can transfer with my company. I mentioned it to my boss last monday and now he's got everything lined up with our Corporate office and the Las Vegas office. Everyone in my office knew about it before I even did. I'm getting a promotion to Project Leader (a salary position :?)
So now I have to work out a specific date to move down there. I know it's a little bit down the road, but February will be here before I know it. I'm thinking leaving Reno the weekend of February 25. (This is so freaken crazy :shock: ) |

I guess another way to look at the fact that I'll be 30 by the time I actually have my architecture license, is that all already be working as one, I just don't get to stamp drawings. The really upside to this is that while the other students at the school are just being interns, I'll be managing projects and telling interns what to do. Too cool. I need to be management.

Congratulations
This is great news for you Deede! I'll forward this to my business partner who is now 33 and does not have his license.
I think you are definately with the right firm if they are willing to do all this for you. And Scott is right on the money; they clearly see this as a huge asset to there company to help you on your way to licensure. How much longer do you have to get your degree? I'm sure you can take Vegas for whatever time it takes. I guess the bigger picture question is: will they send you back to Reno when you are done? Either way, this is a great opportunity. Congratulations. |

What a great day. |
