iStrata support is going to perform a small upgrade.
Access to b.org shouldn't be interrupted for long -- on the scale of ten minutes or so.
I should be finished sending out gift exchange emails by noon tomorrow. If you sent a request to be included and don't get an email with your giftee's name by then, drop me a line because there's been a mixup.
Attention Bayistas: Short-Term Job Opening at UCSF
One of my supervisors has just gotten promoted and another one is going on leave at least through December (and she didn't say anything to me about it, but it's possible that she may either be out longer or get promoted into Supe #1's position) and is looking for an immediate replacement. Guaranteed work through the end of December, possibly longer.
Job duties include:
- Covering phones for the division chief and the postdoc fellowship program (schedule meetings for the division chief, take down contact info for fellowship applicants, not too much else -- no clinical scheduling, insurance authorization, or billing, and no purchasing or accounting)
- Transcription (clinic and admin. letters for two doctors -- I think it's roughly in the neighborhood of 20 letters total on a big week, but sometimes rather less)
- ...well, actually, that's pretty much it. Anything clinic-related is handled by the clinic staff, and the accounting is being farmed out to other folks (unless you've actually worked at a UC campus before and feel confident enough to negotiate our byzantine accounting system, in which case go team you!).
The main things she's looking for are a good phone voice, being comfy with a Mac, and decent typing skills.
If you're interested, e me at my profile addy and I'll put you through to her. The money's not fabulous but it's on the high side of decent, the people are nice, and the workload is pretty reasonable.
You'll All Pay #32 is up!

Slacker Secret Santa: All of you who want to exchange presents with other Buffistas but haven't mailed Dani about it yet, this is your chance!
Please send your info (board name and snail-mail address) to my profile address until the 1st of December. By then, I'll match you up to pairs of givers and recipients, and let you know which is who.
As noted in the Lost thread I am going to be transcribing all of the episodes of Lost. (I'm working on details of where it will be posted.) I could really use some help with typing out the original Korean and translation for Sun & Jin and the original French and translation from the distress call. My profile email is good.
I got help on the Korean. Now I just need the French.
