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

Now tagless for your comfort.

Stephanie, I went to one where that happened, too. YUUUUCK.

I once played one where we had to guess the names of baby animals (it was a co-worker at The Nature Conservancy). That was cool but man, I wish I had been able to text billytea because some of them were HARD.

Also, based on our discussion, I think I’d feel more comfortable thinking about the higher end of the range I mentioned yesterday afternoon.

you might want to put actual numbers in there. Remember that much of the reason that women are paid less than men is that they do not negotiate as hard or ask for as much money.

Also, based on our discussion, I think I’d feel more comfortable thinking about the $XY,000 end of my salary requirements that I mentioned yesterday.

I like the second one Nora. Don't be afraid to ask for what you deserve. If they say no, you haven't lost anything.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Yesterday was definitely on the list - my boss was in a pissy mood (didn't take it out on me, bless him), one of our staff got in a super-energetic state and kept coming up with ideas that she needed my input to make work AND bombarding me with e-mails about scheduled things ... that were months in advance AND were inaccurate. bleah.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Can you specify what about that discussion caused you to feel the job was at the higher end of the pay range?
