Well, since I'm in Vegas, now I know why we aren't having lunch...

congrats on the move!

When I moved to the Bay Area, I wasn't overly established in Denver, but I did have to try to start over. I moved here in between the dot bomb and 9/11, so all the oxygen in this market was sucked out, and it just took a long time to move forward. That's when I looked into things like temping between jobs. But I didn't have much of a book, or a name in the industry. I think you could ride on your current resume better than you think.
