What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

All my Twitter peeps are OBSESSED with it so as a reward for billing 16 hours in the last 24, I am downloading it now.

I am Polter-Cow! I am addicted.

I wouldn't have a problem directing them to my FB profile, but otherwise, fuck them

Um, yeah. Fuck no.

I fully appreciate that companies will and should look FOR my facebook profile. If I'm enough of an idiot to not only use my real name (which admittedly, most people do) AND to leave it public enough for them to read things that would disqualify me? Then I shouldn't be hired, because if something happened, my idiot quotes would be ripe for the picking. But if I'm competent enough to either have a pseud or keep it on lockdown, they know all they need to know. My password is NOT theirs. (And my MAIL password?? Are you KIDDING ME? You just need one bad HR person to reset all my passwords everywhere or something and jack my life!)

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Asking for ANY social media password is ridiculous. They can't even legally ask for your age, and they would ask for PASSWORDS? WTF?

I will pee in a cup for you, but you will pry my passwords out of my dead, cold and broke hands.

Not even my HUSBAND has any password beyond my laptop login.

That's a good point - aside from EVERYTHING ABOUT IT, it's potentially an end run around things they're not permitted to ask about: family status, age, religion.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It does seem like an easy screen of a company I don't want to work for -- things with passwords are on purpose, because my personal life is separate from my job.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I know I always seem to pop in hear with word choice questions, but...

I am making 2 lists of courses for our website-- it is a page displaying the courses alphabetically (we have other pages which advertise each course, but this is just for people who want to see everything). We have broadly, 2 types of courses, College Credit Courses and what I would call "Continuing Education" Courses. These are short non-credit courses. The problem is, I am not supposed to call them Non-Credit, because that is negative, and also some do have "nursing contact hours" and saying non credit makes nurses think that they don't. But, I also can't call them "Continuing Education" courses because in nursing, that means something very specific, and the course has to be accredited by the to grant contact hours, and not all of them are. I would split that section into to lists, but right now, there are only 4 courses, 2 in one category and 2 in another.

Help!

What should I call the list!
