Heh. mr. flea got an email today from an HR woman asking to set up a phone call so she can offer him a job. I mean, isn't that email sort of a job offer in and of itself?
So, it appears that mr. flea will be offered a job on Monday at 1pm. Go team!

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

It's sorta' like, "I will announce my candidacy for President tomorrow."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yay Mr. flea!! I think usually it's not that explicit -- for this job, the exec asst set up the call with the CEO with me, which, why else would she need to talk to me, but the asst didn't say, "She wants to offer you a job."
It's sorta' like, "I will announce my candidacy for President tomorrow."
Or, "We're getting engaged in six months."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
mr. flea is running for president?

I wouldn't vote for him...
To quote HR lady's email: "I'm pleased to be contacting you to arrange a time to discuss the offer of a post-doctoral position ..."

Well, theoretically they could only discuss it, so maybe it's not an official offer yet....
ION, I don't know what this says Megapost #12 y 2 Años de VdeVaca so I shall describe it as "The Princess with Three Hands." (cover picture of a romance novel, apparently)

Oh, juliana. I'm not sure that even Geeway's pants lacking structural integrity is enough to cheer me up.

Nope, that one is still in play. This is Athens GA. Which is, let's face it, a leeetle bit more realistic.
