Grr. I was supposed to have an interview yesterday. They called in the morning and postponed it today. Now they have called again to change the location (to a location rather less convenient for me). I am not impressed right now.

Well, I'm leaving on Wednesday. Not ideal timing for getting friends to help!

I feel Emily's pain. Sadly, I am on the opposite side of the country from her, but I am moving on Tuesday. (Not to Virginia.) I feel that I deserve an infinite time-expanding device, as well as some steroids.

Not to mix two conversations excessively.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Hey, since this company has dicked me around, and since I'm now having a job interview in a Starbucks by the airport, can I wear dress pants instead of a skirt?

I'd say so. Man, that might make me leery.

Pants should be fine, Dana.

It is a nice Starbucks. Ironically, I've had a job interview there before.

I suspect the reason is because the person interviewing me is out at a client site, and many of those big companies are located out by the airport.

But I still really want to wear pants.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Wear pants.

I know what's wrong with my toner question. I don't use toner. It's two cleansers, one soap, one dabbed with a cotton ball. Mask between those two, or after?

Pants are fine. Also, dude, you have to do interviews at Starbucks? That just shouldn't be allowed unless you're applying to Starbucks, man.

And I just had a call with another recruiter, whose accent was so thick I could barely understand him. I hate that. It always makes me feel like an idiot.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
