Could he consider moving to Austin? A heap of California companies have relocated to AUstin: Blizzard, EAGames and some others. When you say software, is he a programmer? what languages? I did a brief check on Indeed.com and there are heaps of software jobs in Dallas and Austin. He doesn't need to shave, the computer industry is it's own creature. To get an idea of what it's like, have your son take you to a Comic Con, Anime Convention or even Defcon.wheelgun1958 wrote:He's 23 and single. He looks like he belongs with ZZ Top. I can't get him to cut it and shave. No tobacco or alcohol. Doesn't cuss that I know of. Good kid. He's looking for a software job. He graduated UNT Dec. 2011, Bachelor Science in computer science. Had a job lined up but after training finished was told that the contract fell through. Looking for local DFW.
