Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Either the CTO didn't like me, or that's just how he was. I think the other people liked me, but I feel convinced I whiffed on the programming test. This was harder than interviewing for shrift's employer. And that was...well, I don't work there, do I?

What I want to focus on is that it's been a week since my last ER visit. I'm sure I'll have to go again soon, but my aim is for at least a week between.

It's hard putting the interview out of mind, though.

I'm not allowed to donate blood, because I'm at the minimum allowed weight for that. And I'm O-, so it's really frustrating.

It's hard putting the interview out of mind, though.

I wish there were anything I could do to help.

You being around is good, Nilly! Up side to cranky spellcheckers is that we got a visit.

Special K! A former krav front desk girl was the admin who ushered me around the place. It was good to see her again, even if I called her by the wrong name. Weird to see her wearing so much clothing.

I wasn't that traumatized and I'll certainly try donating again, but it was an unfortunate experience.

This was harder than interviewing for shrift's employer.

Oh, DUDE. Your interview was THAT horrible? I'm so sorry. If there's anything you can do to pamper yourself, I think you deserve it.

No, *you* being around is good.

(Um, both in the plural and the single sense.)

There is a disturbing lack of Buffistas on the Supreme Court, this is true.

Perhaps they're lurkers ... and will, hopefully, support us in their decisions.

I am a programmer, right? I wrote a lot of this code that supports this site. How come I come up against a programming wall when I apply for Project Management positions? Given prime number N how do I find the next prime number? My algorithm worked, but it was brute force and ugly. And I didn't know enough UML, although it's on my resume. Just not enough.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!
