Yes, but only if you then take shameless ADVANTAGE of me.

If she's taking shameless advantage of someone, it's going to be ME, dammit.
What, no congrats for the new crap-paying job, ND?

Ftr, I haven't graded a single paper yet today because I have spent the last three hours dealing with university bureaucratic hell.
I have spent the last three hours dealing with university bureaucratic hell
To wit: I sent an email with my resume a few weeks ago. The director called to set up a phone interview. Had the hour-long phone interview this morning, and he offered me the job at the end of the call. Whee! I took a shower, had some cereal and got dressed, intending to head over to Panera for coffee and grading.
Then I got a voicemail and an email from the director asking if I had "formally applied" through JHUJobs (the university's online job bank). Um, no. Didn't know that even existed. I had to spend the next hour filling out boxes on their stupid online form that essentially replicated what was already on my resume but that asked me to find all kinds of obscure information (my supervisor's name/phone number from an internship in 1997? Really?).
The best part was at the end of the ap when they asked if I would also like to attach my resume. ARGH.
So I sent off the application and emailed the director back. His reply?
Kristin, Thanks. Now I can tell Human Resources to hire you.
Seriously. This bureaucracy has got to stop.
I bet she (the woman from Tom's link) has called MM's place ... at least once. Possibly several times, just to make sure ....
I just emailed the instructor of a Japanese swordsmanship class at my local community college this summer to ask if I need to get in better shape before starting the class, and if not, is it a problem that I'll have to miss one week because I'll be out of town.
t gulp
Unless he says, "Go away, you flabby person who can't be there eight out of eight weeks," I'm actually going to do this. I'm askeert of looking all clumsy and flabby and stupid, but...swords! Which might give me the motivation to actually exercise more, because...SWORDS!
KT, thats good news. Two days in a row! Woot. (I would have posted sooner, but we've actually been working here! Heaven forbid!)
Working? What's that?
Oh right. What I'm supposed to be doing.
