Mostly lurking...

Matt -

What will your previous positions bring to this one?
Are you a self-starter? If so, give an example.
What attracted you to this job?
What do you look for in a company?
How do you handle stress?

Why yes, I've just recently been on an interview. How could you tell?

That last question is one that I love to ask. My mom was asked it once along with an "example." The interviewer said, "How do you handle stress? For example, Bob* goes in his office and throws breakable things."

*Names have been changed to protect the somethings. Bob was to be my mom's boss.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I love it when life imitates Office Space.

She totally needs a red Swingline.

What is even happening?

I have as much of a problem calling forced prostitution "sexual slavery" because it is forced.
I don't see the problem -- isn't forced inherent in slavery?
Yes. It's using sexual that feels off, somehow.

I only used the term "white slavery" because of the Teppy thing.
Oh, I knew that sumi. It's just that the article got me thinking about the term in contexts where we're not doing the Teppy riff.
That phrase would work, except none of you FUCKOS even *tried.* I feel so rejected.
Maybe we're just inefficient, Teppy.

Art Crawl!!!

Hey, I just heard of somebody who made a huge fuss about her job, got her boss in trouble, was first transferred away from it and now has been promoted.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh, shit -- is anyone else in NYC watching the news?

100 yards of retaining wall just collapsed on the Henry Hudson parkway. Rescue workers are on the way.

If I only had a brain...

I'm sorry, Jessica.

It doesn't look like it's hit the internet yet, but it's right near 181st St. Police may be evacuating the area (they're not sure yet how much of the rest of that bit of land is unstable).

Nobody knows yet how many cars were under there. At least it wasn't rush hour yet.
