Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

So I have my student workers narrowed to three-- I hate choosing.

#1- Nice gay boy. I love him, and he has the most office type experience. I think we could get along great, but he is a senior and does not have workstudy

#2- Nice geeky boy, but a little overexuberant and loud so as to possibly be annoying to me/cow-orkers. But nice. Has enough experience. Pluses- is a sophomore and has workstudy

#3. Nice shy girl, who I am afraid does not have a big enough personality to cope with me/my boss. Has worked at in my building and her job is being eliminated, and her boss gives her a glowing recommendation for everything except for being shy. Is a grad student and does not have work study.

My gut say #1, my brain #2, and my heart #3.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

#2 - he will quiet down, especially when you tell him he needs to.

what is the difference between having and not having workstudy (I know the diff here, but I am amazed at how we do things differently from other schools)

If you have work study, the office only pay 1/4 of the pay rate. So instead of paying $9.00 an hour I will be paying $2.25 an hour.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Buffista men, say something charming so that I can remember that the world is actually filled with good men and not tools.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

2 things, one good, one...not so.

I will start with the not so. I need someone to explain to people that when I ask for an answer, telling me that the answer given last week was inadequate (which I know, and is the reason I'm asking for an actual answer now), or that one thing was decided, but is incorrect (Fine. Then what is correct.), or basically giving me anything but, "Here is the actual data you need to know." is not helpful.

The good thing. A friend of mine sent me a picture of her kid this morning. He's about 7 and terribly cute. Anyway, he apparently saw a little girl sitting outside selling lemonade, and decided he wanted to be a Jr. Entrepreneur-only he couldn't copy the little girl.

The picture is of him sitting on their front sidewalk in a pink shirt with a play sword and a sign that reads "Looking for a swordfight? $$$"

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark

I can't be charming, it's Monday. All I could think of were cheesy lines like "the sun rises and sets in your eyes", and I know I'd be virtually stoned to death for typing that here, so all I can do is try to smile winningly and shrug endearingly.

Men are pigs. However, I refuse to keep kosher. (Sorry, Shir.)

I cannot STAND how cute that is. I would have totally bought one.
