Goodbye Microsoft, Hello World
After 20 years in the military and now 20 years at Microsoft, I am considering how to spend the next 20 years. It's been fun, exciting, and a growing experience here at Microsoft. My last day is Friday 7 October 2011. The company, people, and product groups have treated me very well. Ciao.

Congratulations. Enjoy life on the outside. There's a lot of exciting things happening in the world. Buy an IPAD, get a GMail account, and take a new look at Linux.Anonymous

Imagine there are just a samll group of six CRM MVPs at the summit in Redmond. Product groups are pretty busy and yet someone appreciates that these folks have come from far away to be there. Jim Glass gets things going and promotes the group. In five years, there are over 50 CRM MVPs. Dealing with a technology that is extremly complex and interacts with all the major offerings of the Microsoft Stack. WOW!~!!!!!!!!!! Jim, what ever you do after this, remember. You climbed "Everest".Anonymous

@Brent There's a lot of exciting things going on. Leaving Microsoft offers many new opportunities like this guy who recently left Microsoft too - www.misfitgeek.com/.../whats-wrong-with-microsoftAnonymous

Although it is big loss for the CRM community but i wish you a very good luck for your next 20 years journey :)Anonymous
