Jilli, after surviving DC/MD/VA drivers, I prefer passive-aggressive to out and out aggressive.

Maria I'm so glad that was straightened out quickly.

Jilli Alert - not the bad kind, Adorable Possible Infant Goth Alert. Today a woman came in with her tiny little baby daughter. She was 2 1/2 months old, wearing a gray onesie with pink bows down the front. And her pacifier holder was alternating white and black beads. The largest had a pink skull and cross bones with a pink bow and the smaller ones just had small skull and crossbones.

The mother wasn't dressed overtly Goth but the baby was so cute.

I got called into work today and got an extra 6 hours. Which was good, because my shift for tomorrow got cancelled due to being over payroll. But I'm okay with it I'll still end up with an additional 5 hours and the President is going to be holding a fundraiser at the hotel across the road from the store so I can avoid the Presidential Traffic.

And the store manager told me they wanted to give me one of the new part time positions, this one would be a keyholder thing - Customer Service Manager. But I don't think I can accept it because of the temp assignment. However, I talked to the Assistant manager before I left and told him I still want hours. I'm thinking about working 1 week night and either Saturday or Sunday. So, they may see if they can still give me the position.n Which would include a raise.

D'awwww! I love all the gothy baby stuff that's readily available now. It makes me so happy.

I get frustrated by that, too. Why make the offer if you didn't at least want to take the risk it would be accepted?

Heah, but living in the PNW I have learned to anticipate that it will happen. And thanks to buffistas I had a way to handle it which I never would have thought of myself.

If I were a malicious person, I'd accept offers on principle, with shade of glee when it was someone just going through the motions that they were unwilling to live up to.

Wait...I am malicious. Oh, well then.

I will also get angry to the point of yelling if you treat me like one of those people, though. Not the most efficient way to eliminate the behaviour, but whatevs..

Heh. I do that. I also don't offer to pay for things or invite someone to something unless I mean it.

Jilli - I don't know if you watch Sci Fi's Face Off (their reality competition for make up artists) but the last competition is was Tim Burton Inspired.

We don't have cable, but I've seen a couple of episodes. A bunch of GCS readers let me know about the Tim Burton episode, so I've been meaning to track it down.

You can watch it on syfy's website or on hulu. I was impressed with several of the make ups although I thought someone else should have won.

I'm a malicious person too. But these are people I hope to do business with someday. So doing that would be kind of costly for me.
