Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I can't believe that people were mocking Charles Ramsey - asshats.
ION - I had to order a new power cord for my laptop and I did - on April 20th. I somehow forgot to give them my new address but I have a forwarding address in play so it should be okay except that Dell says that the package was delivered to my old place. . . the USPS says that it could take up to 30 days for something to get to me.
Which do I believe? Is is sitting at my old address? Or is it in Post Office limbo?
I had to send my birth date into my new Employer's office so I can be set up in ADP and there is a small, insane part of my brain which is paranoid that they will now not want me because they think I am too old. Feh.
I'm about to participate in a conference call while sitting in a Starbucks. Not sure how well this is going to go, and I think I'm fulfilling at least one stereotype, just not sure which one.
Banish that thought, Scrappy. They hired you because they want you.

Feh, indeed! Not that your paranoia isn't warranted to some degree. There's a lot of age discrimination in hiring these days. But you're already hired! And you're awesome and they'll be happy to have you.
Jesse, if you check the Davis Square LJ, there's been new developments, such as a bunch of letters sent out by JonMon telling posters they won't get named in the John Doe section of his lawsuit. I'm... almost... sorry that I'm not included so far, but honestly with the unemployment and consequent financial situation, I don't want to borrow trouble.
Eeeee. I just found out a secret that I have to keep from the kids for another few weeks. KCD is actually doing something REALLY nice for K-Bug. Like, I'm still in shock that he is doing it. So, I can't tell her and I can't tell CJ cause he bites at secrets.
Ok, going to try to squeak in a swim. Wish me no thunder!
No thunder, no whammies, no thunder.
No thunder, sarameg!
Damn, I just emailed my friend at the firm where I thought I had the strongest chance of getting hired -- as in, he's a group manager and he called me to tell me he wanted me to work for him.
And now he says they're talking to 2 or 3 other people and it'll be at least a couple of more weeks before they have a decision.
Which sorely disappoints me and makes me nervous about being actually out of work before I land another position. I'm beginning to run out of networking opportunities...
