I am going to accept the job
Awesome! Congratulations.
Yep, it is 720 hours, so basically I can work 720 hours between now and the end of the year and the another 720 in 2017,
Okay, that ain't so bad. You could work three days a week for five hours each day and work all year.
When I got home my wife asked me if I would really like to go back to work full time and the truth is, I would.
When my dad retired he spent two weeks on the couch watching TV and then said fuck this and went out and found a job.
It was an incredibly rewarding job and every day brought new challenges and every day I learned new things.

When I started there the position of Insect Imaging Specialist did not exist. Now there are 2 full time people and 2 support staff and there are almost more imaging projects than they can handle. Lots of the images are used in computer based insect screening aids that are distributed to scientists and technicians at federal and state agencies to help them identify native species, but more importantly exotic invasive species.
Yeah, that sounds really cool. Good for you!
