oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

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.

Matt is on his phone interview now. I can't quite hear the words, but I love listening to him talk when he really know what he is saying . Smooth, confident, and articulate.

beth n matt 4-evah! I feel the same when DW gets passionate on an issue (which is like all the time as she is pretty passionate and opinionated about most things). She is a great speaker and so damned intelligent. Loves!

Compassionately intolerant

My drivers ed teacher...gasp...30 years ago...was a well-meaning sadist. Or, at least I want to think he was well-meaning.

There was no radio in the DE car, so he'd bring a boombox and play Black Sabbath at ear-bleeding decibels. He'd slap the rear view mirror out of alignment just as you needed it wth an 'oooops!'

He once took us up a one lane dirt road in Niles Canyon to impress upon us which car is required to back up when on a one lane incline. I admit it. I cried.

Ohhh, that is cruel, bonny.

My teacher knew just how to make me cry. He must do that on a regular basis cause he had a box of tissues in the back seat of the car. I had been driving for 3 years before I even took driver's ed, so it wasn't like I was scared of being behind the wheel.
