[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.

Tonight's just turning into a nasty ass night. It can end soon, I think.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
More punctuation to you, beth. It's stressful, wanting to be able to do something for Andy, and being kinda stalled out.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm supposed to meet with my advisor tomorrow. We set the meeting time for 1. I wonder what time he'll actually show up. I'm betting on 1:45.

You know, if you had been able to make some money betting on your advisor...you might not need a job

Heh. Cash, you should've thrown a temper tantrum at him. Play it exactly like the worst one one of the kids has ever done. And then be all "...what, you can dish it but you can't take it??"

Math Question. HR gal at prospective job gave 3 dollar amounts. Starting salary, "Midpoint", and "25th percentile". Starting is the lowest, and, ironically, 25th percentile is about midway between starting and "midpoint". With that in mind, can I figure out the upper end of the salary for this position? If yes, is it an easy formula?
It sounds like pay raises are nominal, and with the CA budget crisis, I figure, best to ask for a ton up front, but not completely out of the range. Please tell me if this logic is bad logic!

Er...I don't see anything ironic about 25th% being between starting and midpoint (if "mid"point is 50%!).
That said, the only "concern" with starting at the upper end of the salary range would be if they actually had a set pay range and then you weren't allowed to get raises.
