Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
HOW DID I NOT NOTICE YOU GUYS WRITE IT MUSTACHE?
Huh. I never noticed that either. I definitely put the O in.
In jr. high one of my teachers asked if I read a lot of British writers (yes) based on my spelling. I wasn't aware of it until she pointed it out. I think "traveller" was one of the clues.
I've always spelled judgement as judgement, so I assume I learned that spelling in grade school. That would have been back in the '60s, in rural Pennsylvania, but I can't imagine that would have an affect on standard American spelling.
When I moved to England they thought I was horridly American, but that was vocab. Gas, sidewalk, and my Spanish made them laugh. No wonder I'm fucked.
You know I love Lee Child, but somehow there's always on British-ism in all of his books. The last one I read had Reacher driving in the "overtaking" lane. O RLY?
Jesse, you can always ask. If necessary, negotiate an unpaid leave of absence?
I say "lift" and "queue" regularly (for elevator and line), and that comes from London schooling. Plus, I like the way they sound.
If necessary, negotiate an unpaid leave of absence?
Yeah, I figure that's the worst-case scenario.
How long is the probationery period?
3 months, and the trip is in June.
I see. Unpaid leave of absence, negotiated up front.
