Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I could tell you the horror story from my Friday date...

Do! Do! C'mon, I'm stuck in the Norfolk airport! Do it for me, baby!!

Spoilers for presentations? I'd smack her if I were him.

If I only had a brain...

Well, you see, there were bullets for the top five user complaints, and we were supposed to guess what they were before she let us read them. The top complaint showed up and was animated! yea!

I want to revoke the person in question's license to Powerpoint.

I'm getting the pig!

Not. clicking. on. bad. food. pics.

Well, it's not all bad. In fact, I now have a "Meat... You're right in liking it" mini poster taped up in my office. Good times!

I could tell you the horror story from my Friday date....

Oh no! Say it ain't so. That damn Universe was given explicit instructions. Doesn't anyone read their urgent memo's anymore. Good dates only for Juliana! Sheesh.

She explained that she hadn't sent him the slides because she didn't want him to read ahead in the presentation .

It's possible that we share a co-worker...

Interview~ma to Jilli.

She explained that she hadn't sent him the slides because she didn't want him to read ahead in the presentation .

Oy. Was she afraid he'd phone up first thing and say, "Number one is our convoluted voice mail system. Suck on that one, beeotches! Pw0ned."

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hmmm...I don't know if I need ~ma or not.

What started as joking around about me transferring to our Philly office is suddenly taking a serious note. I talked to Joe about it and it's a little more than half tempting.

Hmmm....

OOooooh....Philly is only 2 hours from here on the train, Aimee!!!!!

On the other hand, snow. And no Sean or ND or Kristin or or.....

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Lots and lots of interview~ma for Jilli who has no reason to be nervous because she's JILLI!

Yes I do, because the HR person left voicemail for me this morning asking me to bring in samples of my editing work with the revision marks. I don't have any. My last freelance editing gig specifically said they didn't want rev marks used ('cos they're crazy people, but they were paying me so I went along with it); I don't have any from my past 4 years of work because keeping personal copies of stuff you're working on is Very Bad Form when you are a contractor.

breathes deeply

So I'm going to take the non-rev-mark showing samples I have. But first I'm going to go eat lunch.

Oh, and not only do I have a second round of interviews for this job on Thursday, but next Monday, I have an interview for the other job I applied for. I am going to be a manic bundle of nerves this week.

I hope everyone else has a very good week.

I once went to an excellent presentation on how NOT to use powerpoint. it was hilarious because the person before AND after the presenter did at least one of his Top Five Worst things to do in a powerpoint presentation. Har.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Today I slept in with Dave and we went out for breakfast, for the second time in a week. I am feeling all sorts of spoiled.

Yay, Erin! I'm glad you had a good date.

Cass, I am glad you had a good day. Take care.

{{{juliana}}} Feel better.

Yay, for Teppy's big boss! Continued health~ma to him.

Interview~ma, Jilli.

She explained that she hadn't sent him the slides because she didn't want him to read ahead in the presentation .

This sounds like grade school rather than the business world.

May things work out for the best ~ma for the Empress.
