If a job ad doesn't have a contact name, would you begin a cover letter with "Dear Hiring Manager" or "To Whom it May Concern"?
I'd put "To Whom it May Concern"
Where'd they get CAT scan from?... I mean, did they test it on cats? Or does the machine sort of look like a cat?

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Thrive to spite them
If I was spending (or having $500 spent on me) I'd want something large, but sleek...maybe not messenger style, but something big enough for a notebook, calendar, pens, etc.
Actually I have a bag that big, but I hardly ever used the pockets. Because I wanted something to carry stuff! because stuff is cool and I like it! But now I'm back to my business card case only carrying my driver's license, debit card, and cash. Because, oh god, I don' want to carry stuff, it's too much trouble! Right now I've just got my DL and cash in a pocket becuase I can't find my business card case and it seems like too much trouble to even carry that.

What is even happening?
If a job ad doesn't have a contact name, would you begin a cover letter with "Dear Hiring Manager" or "To Whom it May Concern"?First, I would try to find out the contact name. Call the company's human resource office, maybe?

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
Good call, Cindy. Looking at the website, it seems to be a very small office. The job's for a development assistant, so maybe the Director of Development?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
For anyone who hasn't seen the makeover yet, I'm pretty sure Deb's new bag is this one. It's vast. It could easily carry a dozen copies of FFoSM in it, plus a proof of the next book, all her makeup, a couple of notebooks, any number of cell phones, and approximately 60,000 pens and pencils. Plus, if she was willing to cut the FFoSM stash down to 6, probably one of her smaller cats.

If it came in something other than eye-bleeding pink, that might be nice.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Missed deb's appearance. Damn.
kicks rocks
I am a bag/purse person. I love them muchly. Probably because I can always find a bag that fits, shoes? Nope, I gots weird feetsies. Clothes? Nope. Previously I could only wear plus sizes and not everywhere carries plus sizes. Now, I'm in that weird place in between plus and misses and have a hard time finding stuff anywhere that fits well.
But bags? My, yes. I have at least 20 different purses and 10 different bags. And, I do give older ones away. But, I don't spend a whole lot of money on them because I am hard on them and I do like buying new ones. Can't buy a lot if I spend a lot on one.
In fact, I just bought a new purse at Target. On sale for $11. And, over Christmas, I crocheted a fuzzy bag. I still need to get a button for it, but it's quite adorable.
