Also, to address the idea that I should just quit and go to another company... not easy to do in my neck of the woods. It'd be nearly impossible to find another job in my field that pays as well as this one, and has the same benefits. It's also a great company to work for.

Either way, this opportunity has come and gone... position has been filled. I know the guy who got it actually... great fellah who really needed a lucky break.
