Ok, I called. He said they were still meeting with a few people, but that none of them were any more qualified than I so he still wants to put me in front of The Boss. He liked that I called again because it shows that I am "still interested enough to give a little niggle."
Hee.
damn. someone just rang the doorbell again. a tree guy. if people are going to keep ringing my doorbell I'm goona have to answer the door naked.
No one ever rings the bell. and then for the last 3 days someone has rung it. and I have been signifigently undressed when it rang. Why does the world want me to keep my clothes on?
Hurray for calling, then.
I vote shower, Erin.
Am now earwormed with "Ring My Bell."
Whew. So it looks like "the company appreciates my work" and I've "already proven myself," which means that a permanent position should be in my future. (Of course, this is what my uncle was saying a few weeks ago, and then I heard they were still deciding whether to extend the internship or keep me permanent, so who knows what's really going on?)
I am secretly hoping it doesn't actually go into effect until July or something, because my contract rate is presumably higher, and has no limit on approved overtime. And I am going to be having a lot of motherfucking overtime in the next few weeks.

It's not just you, though it's alternating with the new White Stripes song about "When you gonna ring my doorbell".

Well, yay, but get them to put IN WRITING that they have extended your contract/internship/whatever they're calling it until X time. That way, when X time happens, you can remind them that you're still working for them as a contract employee, not a permanent one. Because working for two weeks past a stated end date with nothing in writing would freak me right out.
But yay! They appreciate your work!
I'm glad you've got some positive feedback, P-C. You've been working so hard. I hope all the contract stuff goes the way you'd like it to.
aimee the niggler
