promotion-ma, Andi!
I'm sitting in the VW dealership while they work on my car. This lounge is a much nicer work environment than my office - nice chair, nice table, free coffee, free Dunkin Donuts, quiet.
Of course, it may just be the absence of coworkers that's making me happy.
Aimee, I don't have any advice for you, but I'll be sending lots of ~ma your way that things will work out best.
Also lots of job~ma to andi. I'm officially releasing all of the job~ma back into the ether for Buffistas. I talked to my new boss this morning and he wants to see me 8:25 am on Monday! Whee!
Someone commented "I've never seen you look so happy, you glow when you talk about this job." Partly I'm excited to get to ajob with leave time an dbenefits and where I will actually be able to get ahead moneywise (instead of getting a little next egg an dthen losing it to being sick or something) but also on the sheer fact of who quickly i was hired after the interviews started. I feel like Sally Fields at the Oscars.
Dear Boss:
Telling someone over and over that they are wrong, doesn't automatically make you right. Just FYFI.

Sorry Aimee to bring it up, but I wasn't aware of that. I am sort-of "Hope for the Best, Prepare for the Worse" guy, which is why I brought it up...

No, it's valid. People do that shit all the time.
Aimee, sometimes being the Bigger Person is the best way to dig at someone. Think of the Bugs Bunny cartoons where Daffy or Elmer or the Tasmanian Devil blusters away while Bugs just stands there calmly.
It can be very satisfying.
Promotion-ma, WindSparrow!
Aimee, best of luck with that stuff. My mom's other sibs knew all about her but she didn't know about them for years. It worked out well for them. Even though my mother still has only met her bio-dad about 3 or 4 times and he likes to pretend she isn't his, everyone else just rolls their eyes and makes plans to visit and whatnot.
I have been overwhelmed by life, but there is a bright spot - mini buphista f2f tomorrow!
Emily, good luck with your ant problem. How frustrating.
