Natter Area 51: The Truthiness Is in Here  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Anyway the walk home is a nice way to work off the fish and chips.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I also wouldn't mention the predictable schedule in a cover letter or application, either. You can suss out corporate culture more subtly, while on the interview.

Actually - when DH was looking for a job - that was one of the big things he talked about. Predictability and wanting more out of life than work. He didn't want to bother interviewing with people that wanted him to work 70-80 hours. Oddly, despite putting it in many different ways, including directly, he still interviewed with people that wanted him to sleep under his desk. All he really wanted was some one that was willing to do some long range planning for the predictable parts of IT - and to make sure that those in IT that have to do the crisis work get enough time to recover, stay sane, and stay healthy ( which include an ability to have some sort of a social/family life) . Guess what his new job at his old company involves? And the job that he ended up not really taking - had the decency to understand that if he worked 12am to 4 am , the earliest they would see him was noon.

Maybe: a company that is looking for a long-term employee

What is even happening?

I'm starting Grace's extra ~healthma~ a little bit early. Here's an extra dose of peace and strength to Kat, too.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

People stopped talking.

Why?

I have been trying to decide all day if it's just been quiet here, or if it seems more quiet than it is, because I'm in a bit of a fog.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's Monday. A very Mondayish kind of Monday.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I thought we were already on Earth Mk. III

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I have been trying to decide all day if it's just been quiet here

I blame Jesse.

Software piracy is not only a crime, it hurts the little people who work so hard on getting the fjords just right. You think Norway was easy?
