MY job pays quite well. Well enough for me to take a yearly vacation 
requiring a passport.

I still do.

bullshit

bullshit

> Ford made me an offer and their development headquarters are over in Palo Alto It appears that what they are trying to build a large system using a bunch of embedded systems which probabiy isn't a cost effective method. 

bullshit

Why would I take a paycut to move across the country to an area with a 
higher cost of living when I'm a few years from retirement?

> Make up another of your dream worlds where I didn't do the jobs I said that then explain away the letters of references I have.

No make-believe necessary. Anyone who claims to be a programmer at the 
level you claim and doesn't understand the basics of software release 
methodology and process is obviously full of shit.
