Day two of the Stage Rigging workshop. I'm getting the feeling there will be very little/no hands on/practical lessons, and a whole lot of theory & war stories. Eh. Some exposure is good exposure. Just wish there was more how-to's. What I do know, three days in a row of 8am calls and going until midnight is wearing me out. And the conference hasn't even begun yet!
Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.
Sanity check, please? If I haven't heard anything from the HR guy by, oh, 3PM, would it be okay for me to send him a short email? Something like "I'm sure you're busy, I just wanted to touch base and see if there was any other information you needed from me?"

And to make today even more fun, Pete has been felled by a horrible cold. He's finally accepted that he's not going upstairs into the studio today.
I think a short, unpushy email would be fine to send this afternoon.
I am sorry Pete is ill. Sick is no fun. And having a sick spouse when you're already stressed is hard too.
I would wait until tomorrow, myself. Give HR one more day to get their hiring ducks in a row.
It seems forever when you're the interviewee, but not when you're the interviewers. They're probably trying to schedule a meeting and still responding to a Monday morning crisis. Not that that helps.
I would like to go on the record and say that I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the one who dislocates ribs and gets the funny anemia.
I would wait until tomorrow, myself.
Ditto.
Just heard from the HR guy. Bad news: I didn't get this particular job. GOOD NEWS: they want to hire me for another position, and will as soon as the headcount is approved. So yay?
Sounds like a yay to me?
I did not go look at the bike, and it's been sold. I did not go get produce. I did have an anxiety attack and take half a Xanax and fail at a nap. On a more positive note, I did some rehab exercises which, if I keep doing them, may decrease my chronic pain level.
My cats are staring at me and twitching their tails. Food times nao, I suppose.
It sounds like a yay to me, Jilli. If you feel like discussing -- did he give you any info. about the position, and does it sound good? I'd certainly be encouraged - almost sounds like they want you so much that they'll create a position to get you, what with having to get headcount approval and all.
Jilli,
that's great! what did they do, create a job for you?
