Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My BiL and SiL have an LG w/d all-in-one (they're pretty common in teeny London apartments) and they never use it as a dryer because it's faster to hang everything up and let it air-dry.
We have a HE Bosch set (separate washer/dryer) and the dryer is okay. Our issue is that because we have nowhere to vent, we had to get the electric condensation model, which just doesn't work as well as one with a vent would. Our clothes get dry, but it does take about 2 hours.
Allyson, please tell that nasty little voice at the back of your brain to shut up, because really, you do rock, and getting personal references/networking is going to work for you, for sure.
Allyson, I am *furious* that you were screwed over like this. The universe owes you one hell of a favor.

Indeed it does. I'm astonished and outraged on your behalf. Karma is going to bite them in the ass, but hard, I'm sure of it.
My plan is that you will find this fabulous well paying job -- and then they will realizes they made a horrible mistake, but they can't have you .
meanwhile for those that miss puppycam, my sister sent me another link to an eskie video
I just...I have to accept responsibility that a promise isn't a hiring letter. I should have had it in hand before saying anything to my current employer.
The director of the program is trying very hard to find me a position somewhere, since she feels terribly responsible for this.
It's heartbreaking because I would have rocked this job.
Tim keeps saying, "you aren't an assistant, you're a writer, and you're going to eventually make a living writing books."
It's sweet, he doesn't really get the publishing industry and that fewer and fewer people make a living at it, but it helps to think of whatever job I do as a living and not a life, you know?

Not a snowpocalypse, thank goodness. Good timing, too -- it has 41 hours to melt before I have to drive anywhere.
Maybe I'm not done kicking the shit out of myself.

Yes it does. I was talking with a coffee shop aquatience who is in a bad situation right now -- sHe has a boss that says things like "i don't need to listen to clerical staff" after asking her a question. My friend isn't thrilled, but as she said this morning it isn't her life.
But I hope Tim is right.
Congratulations to you and your DH, beth b!
