Well, that doesn't just roll off the tongue.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

My driver's ed guy was a little different from yours, Suzi. I think he was from Mississippi. Not that that matters except for the accent I hear him in. Direct quote relating to safe stopping distances: "Now, if I see a blind person in the intersection, I'm gonna give him some room. I don't know about no te-eeen feet, though."
The section on long-distance driving began "Say you goin' down to Memphis for the dawg races."

He sounds like fun! I had Mr. SillyName, who wore silly pants. I know it's not kind to make fun of him, but boy he was... silly.

I just told two co-workers how I sing "Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening" to my kitten boy Caspie (he loves it, btw). I think I have to kill them now, eh?

What I remember of Mr. Schaeffer the driver ed teacher was him singing along with "Lucille" on the radio as a I drove.
"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille!"

Is the recruiter on the East coast?
No idea --but it is not unusual for this to happen . I had a recruiter yell at me, because I suggested that leaving a message on Matt's cell phone was more effective than leaving a message with me that he wasn't going to get for 6 to 8 hours. And then there are the recruiters that Matt has 80% of the experience they are looking for -- and they keep trying to make him say that he knows the other 20%. There are some things you can't fake. And then there are the ones that want him to give a bottom salary number, push him and when he gives a reason response - reason and number range -- they ask if it is negotiable -- meaning only lower.
there are some really good recruiters out there-- but there are whole lotta wannabes that don't have the basic people skills or organizational skills to do the job well. ( know the jobs , know the co, know your people and don't out and out lie)
Opps, I committed rant

This no voice crud is so done. I normally like the guys I work with, but they are enjoying laughing at my whispered conversations a bit too much.
I want my voice back.

Rubber bands, paper clips, and germy spitballs are perfect for office warfare. I'm just saying.
