OK, next how do I word this: I managed between two and six people at a time. I also trained all of those people (who collectively, add up to more than six). How do I say that all together in one line of resume?
I hate this. I have no idea what I did the past three years, or how to say it good.
I worked on a very very very big project. huuuuuuuge. managed some people. trained some people. did various starting and interim and closeup bits on them.
Was in charge for a little bit on a small project in the UK.
ongoing work being in charge on a simple but long-term project.
Worked on a small complex project, managed one person for that.
Now working on medium mostly simple project, in the middle of it.
Can anyone make those sound good?
VORTEX! SQUEE on
finally
getting to see your place! Sorry to hear about the missing windows, though. What's the time frame now?
I have had way too much time on the phone with my girls. I had to call my lawyer to remind me I can't actually shoot someone with my crossbow.
Sticking my head in the door to say...
It's either this or continue work on the crackaddled DA/SPN crossover I jokingly started.
It's Ackles Overload! I'm so intrigued by this! Whee!
I think Jilli's only recourse is a pharmaceutical one, because any other bribe or rationale just isn't up to the task of breaking the cycle of panic she can descend into.
Pete, this was my experience. I suspect if I'd treated my occasional panic and almost-panic attacks sooner, my panic might not have developed into a full-blown panic disorder. After a while, panic attacks become their own trigger, that is -- fear of having one can push a person over the edge into having one.
Jilli, if you have any more questions you want to ask, please feel free, either here or e-mail is good (but I've been a big skipper and skimmer, lately).
Okay, now I want to talk about 80s vids.
Oh again! I loved Van Halen's video for "Jump," but I think that might have been 90s, too. It was Sammy Hagar, not Dave ... I can't believe I'm blanking on his last name.
Amy,
Jump
isn't Hagar. It's still David Lee Roth era Van Halen. You just lost some massive 80s cred there, girlie.
I think Cashmere's right about
Total Eclipse of the Heart
being the iconic 80s video. The only challenger I can think of is Pat Benetar's
Love is a Battlefield,
and Duran Duran's
Hungry Like the Wolf.
These were all so big, and overblown, like the 80s themselves.
Of course then there was Michael Jackson's
Thriller,
which deserves a category of its own. Honorable mentions should go to Cyndi Lauper's
Girls Just Want to Have Fun,
Madonna's
Like a Virgin,
ZZ Top's
Legs,
Peter Gabriel's
Sledge Hammer,
Human League's
Don't You Want Me, Baby?,
Culture Club's
I'll Tumble 4 Ya,
and Robert Palmer's
Addicted to Love,
because they were each so new in their own way.
That said, none of those were my favorites and (confession) Duran Duran never really did it for me. I had a big thing for Stevie Nicks, Fleetwood Mac, and of course, Band Aid's
Do They Know It's Christmas.
Asia, Loverboy, and the Go-Go's always mean MTV to me, and I can't hear Def Leppard without seeing their vids in my mind.
My favorite vid was April Wine's
Just Between You and Me
though,
and it was just a plain concert (or concert style) vid. *sigh*
Yay for new homeownership, Vortex!
I am 300+ messages behind here, after a long weekend at the beach with Sox and family. Just so we're all clear: Sox's daughter owns all the holes on the beach. Hers. All hers. Must not dare to jump into a hole, or risk the wrath of a cute two year old.
We also scored a $100 linen suit for my DH in the outlets, so he will melt more slowly when he goes to job interviews than he would in wool.
Happy Belated Birthday to Teppy!
Much ~ma to Anne and family.
{{}} Brackets for those that need 'em. I have no clue as to when I'll catch up, since it is a short week for me here because we're leaving on Friday for Williamsburg with friends visiting from CA.
Yay, Vortex!
Timlies everyone else! I've been extra lurky lately so I thought I'd just say hi.
My brain is screaming that it's only 6:30, yet I've been at work for over an hour. This is not right. At least I have coffee.
