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.
Is there a simpler way to tidily fasten the back than attaching a snap fastener, but with the end rolled over and stitched down so you can't see it?
Sophia must know the answer to this, but I'm going to say glue, assuming you won't want to use the ribbon again.
I always just glue the ends over and down, and then stitch on hook-and-eye fasteners.
Depends on your style but in mine data is treated as plural.
Data is technically a plural, so "data are" is correct. But a lot of people are vague about its plural-ness, and "data is" is also common, so that is probably why it feels wrong.
I got invited to be an external reviewer for some NEH grants. Is it compensated? Of course not. I am sort of getting tired of these pleasant professional honors that don't have any connection to me getting paid. Yes, still not employed.
I guess the idea is you get stuff for your resume, and contacts?
I was pretty damned close to breaking into tears in the office, so I took myself out and walked to a restaurant six or eight blocks away, and had a fried fish sandwich and a beer. So crisis averted, but I'm still upset, just not to that level.
And apparently Mom now is being all happy and chatty with people. Yay, but WTF.
Mom now is being all happy and chatty with people.
Hopefully a sign that things could get better in the long run.
"Data are organized" looks WRONG to me. Or am I just being clueless?
Our house style is that it's a plural word. To the point that "data is" grates on me terribly. (NPR, I am looking at you.)
Sure, now that Suela's pulling her hair out.
I didn't know there was a word for one data.
Does anyone here have any experience with org charts? I have over 170 people in my section, and in the section there are 12 groups, each with a supervisor.
What I would like to do is list each person with their group in Excel and be able to generate an org chart from that list. The org charts in Smart Art are for an org chart with like 20 people. If you have twenty people, why do you need a chart? Anywho, I've been doing these by hand, updating like a total chump, begrudgingly, every year. I'd update more often if it didn't seem so ridiculous. You can look up people in the directory on our intranet! WHY DO YOU WANT THIS PIECE OF PAPER THAT WILL BE OUT OF DATE EVERY TWO WEEKS? WHY?
Anyway. Anyone have any experience with making org charts?
Visio.
