Dave, you don't want to work for Wyndham. My impression is they hire too few people without adequate time or resources to do the work. A pressure cooker situation.

Actually, Sue, my comment was meant more as a joke. I've been in IT my whole career, coming up on 46 years, (Yikes!!), and I'm trying to be retired. Working for anyone isn't something I want to do, and especially not for Wyndham.
A few months ago I was pointed to a Field Service Tech job with Marriott on Kauai. They were looking to set up a new position to support the systems used at the three Marriotts on the island. It was a great fit and I was very intrigued. I even applied (Hey, it's Hawaii, and who doesn't want to live there?) But after researching the cost of living on the island, and availability of decent housing, and knowing what I would have to give up to move there, I reluctantly withdrew my application. I'd rather go to Hawaii when every day is a day off, and enjoy every moment, than to try and survive in an economy that would have cost me too much to try and recreate what I have here in Washington. I have a nice home, nice cars, a great job, all that. Moving to Hawaii at this point would be a big step backwards, even with the substantial pay raise the job carried. I hope whoever gets the job is very happy with it.
