maybe if you didn't keep talking about your igloo, people wouldn't do that...

Nyah.

Sophia, I am so sorry for the crap the theater's pulling. Maybe do a slow-down until they see the necessity for a full-time costumer?

Sophia, I hate to say this, but clearly you are doing as much work as they need done, so why would they change anything in costumes?

Oh- I know this, and I actually told them this would be my last year because I couldn't take the pace anymore and was getting very angry and starting to hate theatre, which is a sure sign I should take a break. I am also mad at myself, because I always, always forget that it is not hard work necessarily, that will be rewarded. The woman they hired takes the time to go to all the after parties and out to lunch with everyone, and was always around during the day when people are there.

Sophia, I think this would be a good time to have that conversation again. If there's budget to make that a full time position, then I'd ask that they at least get you another assistant.

It may not happen, but at least put them in the position where they have to justify it and say no.

So aggravating for you, I can't imagine.

but how can props be a higher priority for full-time work than costumes!

I think it's insane, but are they aware that you don't want full-time work? Could that be it?

And this.

Now I want to see that map as a Risk-style game so you can play out how Facebook invades and takes over the Friendster peninsula and our new Google overlords sweep across the steppes.

I named that map George a while ago - lovely link Cashmere! But, yeah. Needs a little updating... a year and a half is a long time in the lifespan of, say, mySpace.

Yes, it probably is. I am starting to calm down. I actually think I would not be so angry if they had told me instead of letting me find out from a student! I had the shock, with an additional side of feeling like an idiot while talking to my class! And the communications issues are most of the reason I don't want full-time work!

And how cute is it that Friendster is still on there? Remember Friendster?

Remember Friendster?

In a related matter I just got friended out of the blue by someone from High School. Those out of the blue friendings are fun.

Happy birthday P-C!
