This morning, I accepted a position with another company...
After 10 years with Fastenal, I'll be moving over to AST (Automated Systems of Tacoma). It seems really weird right now, but I am also excited about being with AST. I'll expand on this move soon - I just wanted to let people know. I need to get to bed, though.
I start on Friday, May 30. My schedule will be 7:00am - 3:30pm, Monday-Friday. I find this to be very favorable.
Maybe I'll just post a comment on this post in a couple of days, telling you more about it.

Congratulations!!!
Good Afternoon, Good Evening and Goodnight!!!!!!!
Wow, nice work my friend. Definitely a bold move, and your gettin busy livin these days. I like it!!
May God bless you during this transition! I haven't been on your blog in weeks and enjoyed getting caught up with all your happenings!
AST was started by Dave Teodoro, Sr., in 1965. It is now in the hands of his three sons, Dave Jr., Don, and Dick. Dick is now the general manager. I have known the Teodoro family my whole life. There is another family that has significant ties to AST, whom I have also known my whole life. We were all in the same church, and I grew up playing with members of both families. There are several things about AST that add up to being a better company to be a part of. I have a lot of respect for the company and the people in it. The weirdness [of leaving my current company] has worn off now, and the transition is feeling good. More to follow... at another time.
I will be a "Purchasing Agent". I was a Purchaser with Fastenal a few years back, and really enjoyed it. But then the company moved that role to the corporate office in Minnesota... and I was not about relocating.
