I am extremely tired. Also, have not had breakfast or coffee. Have already taught three regular classes and ran an advisory session, and have two more classes later today. I really hate this schedule.
On the positive side, however, I'm enjoying my students quite a bit. And we have tomorrow off for Rosh Hashanah. Yay sleeping in!
Heh. It's right next to my office.
Oh, man, this just makes me want to work in Emeryville even more. Lunch with P-C!
How is the job search coming? Do you have a prospect in Emeryville?
I had one - though I think it wouldn't have worked out in the long run, with the hours and OT expected - that I had to cancel the interview for because Matilda gave me an ick, and nothing since then, but all my recruiters know that it's my one non-SF option (being perfectly halfway between home and Emmett's school, it's an actually doable and possibly even helpful cross-bridge commute).
Secretly, of course, I just want to work for Pixar.
I know someone who works at SQUID Labs, right by Pixar.
Meara, is this the site you're using? [link] It was a bit sluggish when I first tried to load it just now, so maybe they're having server problems today or something. I don't generally have problems using it.
Hah! I just checked the job listings at the Pixar website, and there's a payroll job that Hec could do in his sleep and a "Pixar University" coordinator job that I could do in mine.
Hmmm. Must ruminate. And possibly attempt to craft an ass-kickin' cover letter.
First off, since I forgot to do this at 1am..or 2am... or heck 3am before going to bed... HAPPY B-DAY P-C! : throws glitter and hums into kazoo :
OK, so I get to work, and chatting on the phone with my boss, and he's like "O, did you hear, Houston is looking for a Sound guy... but then you'd have to live in Houston. Ugg". And for the life of me I can't figure out if:
a) he is trying to downplay cuz he doesn't want to loose me, but knows I've been grumbling about pay suckage
b) wants to get rid of me
c) thinks I should apply, because he agrees with my pay grumbles, and knows that might be the only way I see a significant change anytime soon, as it has happened with some other Production Department Heads.
O, and to add insult to injury, .Mac mail is being wanky. I can see I got a note from the Production Manager in Houston, but I can't open it!
My mom just told me she got me season one of
Bosom Buddies
for my birthday. I hope she was joking.
