The former deputy director here used to say to folks that didn't get jobs here that they didn't match the needs of the institution at that time. They may have had outstanding qualifications, but just didn't fill the specific holes that we needed filling then. I don't know if this is any consolation, but I've found it helpful. Still, all the platitudes in the world don't keep this from sucking right now.
I'll keep some ~ma your way that a better job comes open soon where you and the position are the best fit possible, and that you get that one.
I'm sorry ND, that sucks mightily and is no reflection on YOU.
Thanks to a flash of inspiration, K-Bug will also be receiving a batch of certificates entitling her to an extended curfew. Not only is it her birthday, but she has also hit the 12 month mark of having her drivers license, so a bunch od driving restrictions have been lifted, including her driving curfew.
I fucking hate March.
Can't say I blame you. I'm really, really sorry (which goes out to both you and ND, as I'm sure you know.)
I fucking hate March.
I hear you. I'm kind of partial to the 30th, but the rest of the month has been pretty crappy for Buffistas. Everyone should be happy and well on the 30th, though. I decree it!
Thanks. It just really sucks, because there are only a few graduate sound design programs in the entire country. The chances of another opportunity like that coming along any time soon that wouldn't require moving to some random part of the country are pretty slim. I really wanted Drew to get this. He deserved it.
(Btw, he's working this evening at Universal, so he's not likely to respond to anyone here until later, just so you all know.)
I'm really sorry, ND. That sucks.
Sorry, ND and Kristin. TOTALLY their loss.
Sorry to hear that, ND.
Blech on the cold, Plei. Because colds suck and because I have crack that needs to be written. I have icons ready and everything. (There's a self-help group for this, yes?)
Aaaaaand, while these aren't *my* photos from the Vampire Ball, they're at least *some* photos
Oh! Some of my favorite outfits are in these pictures. Love them! And my nose is in a book, which is ... kinda typical.
