New-TimeSpan -Start '9/1/2017'

Dear readers of the GoateePFE blog,

It is with mixed emotion that I announce after seven years of real-world script blogging this is the final GoateePFE blog post. I have chosen to take the next step in my career with a company outside of Microsoft. My new role will involve automation, security, and customers.

When speaking at conferences it has been a pleasure and honor to meet people impacted by the GoateePFE blog posts and videos. I have enjoyed your Tweets and post comments as well. Please continue to share this content with others when it is helpful.

Thank You

You may not be aware that you have played a significant role in my career. Each review cycle I would give my manager a count of blog visits, demonstrating value delivered to the global community, to you. Sometimes I would include your tweets and comments, validating that I was connecting with real issues and providing real answers. Thanks for reading and sharing in the journey with me.

What will happen to "GoateePFE"?

My TechNet blog will remain for years to come, although I will no longer be able to update it. I will keep the @GoateePFE Twitter handle to maintain contact with the PowerShell community. My PowerShell video content will remain on Microsoft Virtual Academy and the Microsoft Premier video education subscription. My Facebook and GitHub locations will also remain. My next role will contain significant automation responsibilities, so I plan to continue involvement in the PowerShell community on some level.

Career Advice

In this post a few years back I shared some tips for career success. I hope that the content provided on the blog has helped you make your own mark on the world. I firmly believe that community participation is one of the best things you can do to advance your career and advance the industry. Join the conversation.

    All great things sadly seem to come to an end. I have greatly appreciated your excellent writing, the great topics you examine, and of course the awesome PowerShell content you provide. I shall miss your tweets and blog posts from this life. My very best of luck in your venture. Leaving a great home is hard, but arriving at a new place is exciting and fun. Enjoy the transition and the destination.
