Best of luck, Xnera!

I have a similarly job-related request for -ma, if you can spare it. I've just been for an interview. The guy has already hired my flatmate and 2 of my other colleagues, and in my interview he told me he was 99% sure I'd get an offer of a job, and that he definitely wanted me to come along to a meeting he was having on Sunday with the 3 colleagues I've just mentioned - in short he all but offered me the job.

I want to jump and squee, but the key word is almost.

So could I crave your indulgence in wishing me GetTheJobSoLongAsItReallyIsAsGoodAsItLooks-ma? Please?

Thanks, loves.

I delurk, therefore I am.

Numfar, do the dance of joy! Turns out my dad (yes, I work with him) and one of the supervisors go way back, so the sup pulled some strings and got me into "the hub". They're not entirely sure what I'll be doing, but I'll still have a job come Monday. YAY!!!

Releasing -ma back into the wild. Thanks for the vibes.

It looks like I may be heading to the Seattle area and northern Oregon in early June. I would love to get together with istas from that area if possible. My profile addy is good.

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

Hey all -- a co-worker of mine is on the board of an animal shelter who has a dog entered in the Second Chance Dog Show competition. If she wins, she gets great publicity for her shelter, so go vote for Jada!

Herding cats for fun

May I have the job~ma for awhile? I am gearing up for computer testing and interview this Thursday & Friday for an interesting, well-paid job. The following Thursday, I have another interview for something nearly as good. It would be so nice to snag a position where the 2.5 years of state service credit I've accumulated would apply. I'm feeling more overwrought and sweaty-palmed than I'd like, so please send some calm, cool & collected~ma so I won’t freak myself out over the sheer number of unemployed people in my immediate family (me, DH, my baby sister).

Also, while I’m asking for stuff: My elderly, beloved cat Chloe has chronic renal failure and is now in her second year of fluid therapy. She could use some hang-in-there~ma.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
