I’m finishing up my last day at LSI Logic. I started working at this company on June 6th, 1995, after being hired as the Information Services Director for Nihon Semiconductor, a wholly owned subsidiary of LSI Logic. A few weeks later I was off to Japan for a three-year assignment. I’ve completed almost nine years of service with the company. In looking back over my career, I haven’t worked for very many places:

• United States Air Force, May 1963 through August, 1968
• Purdue National Bank, September 1968 through March, 1969
• TRW, March 1969 through September, 1981
• Systemation, September 1981 through January 1989
• Thiokol Corporation, January 1989 through February 1993
• State of Utah, May 1993 through June 1995
• LSI Logic, June 1995 through May 2004
• And next will be AMI Semiconductor, May 2004 until ????

While this closes the chapter at LSI Logic, there is another, parallel chapter of being in Colorado Springs that will close in the next few weeks. We received the first offer on our house last night. It wasn’t much of an offer and not really worth taking my time, but the realtor is obligated to present all offers to us. We’ve rejected the offer and are sure that we’ll be seeing other offers much more in line with what we’re expecting. Meanwhile, I’m wrapping up at LSI Logic today and tomorrow I’ll officially be "Between Jobs"!
