Good luck with the job interviews and the scheduling problems, Emily. I hope you get something really great for next year.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Okay, so if the guy signed his original email with just his first name (and used mine), do I use it to write back to him? I hate all this job-hunt-etiquette strangeness. And, of course, he probably won't even notice how I address the email, so what a waste of a worry!
Did I tell you, he was most interested in finding out about my MATH background? Not my management plan or my philosophy of education, but my math?!?!

Emily, the policy here is that you can reschedule jury duty twice. I'm sure it varies by state and country, but you can at least look into it.

Alas,
Jurors are entitled to a one-time postponement not to exceed 6 months from the summons date.
S'ok. I've emailed the first school and said, thank you so much but I've decided to focus on high schools. Which is true. Mind you, I'll still be in a bind if other schools want me to do demos, but at least this one's working out.

If he signed off with his first name, you can use it. (My bitchier half says if he used your first name, because I have issues.) But following his lead is best anyway.

Oh good, because I just hit send. They've all been using my first name, and actually I think I agree with you -- if they use mine, then I get to use theirs -- but my insistent equity side wars with my supplicant side and I get all... squidgy. God, I hate the person I turn into when I need a job. I KNOW I'd be better off with more confidence and less worrying about what I "should" be doing, but this is inevitably how I end up acting.
Okay, off to worry about my sub plan for the next week. Thanks!

Someone make me go finish my homework so that I can catch up on The Riches tonight. I have missed my computer so much, even with the cellphone to keep me in touch, that I can't seem to tear myself away from it.

I'm so sorry, tommy. It sounds like you made the right decision, but I know it must have been very hard.

{{{tommyrot}}} I'm so sorry for your loss and that you had to make that difficult decision.
