You are no doubt aware that this week is Bill Gates’ last one as a full-time Microsoft employee and there are no shortage of "last" interviews with Mr. Gates. I wouldn’t want to bother him for an interview at this time that is no doubt a major milestone in his life. I am sure that he has all sorts of doubts about his future now that his long-time day job is going away and I understand he must be having second thoughts about his decision to leave, that would only be natural.
I feel for what must be going through Bill’s head at this point in his life and I want to let him know that we at jkOnTheRun are here for him. I also want to offer Bill Gates a full or part-time writing job for us to ease those fears about the future he must be feeling. You can write about anything you wish, Bill, as long as it’s mobile tech related and that you keep your facts straight. We will give you a share of the ad revenue that any of your posts generate which I’m confident will net you a nice little cushion against unemployment. So think about it, you can’t get a better gig and I can absolutely guarantee you will enjoy writing for the best readers on the web. All you need to do to put this in motion is to send me your current resume along with some samples of your writing as you would do it for jkOnTheRun. We’ll have a look at it and as long as everything looks good we’ll get you started right away. We’re waiting to hear from you soon, Bill. And don’t forget, this is your last week at Microsoft so as a short-timer you don’t really have to do anything. That’s the best time.
