Band-aid adhesive destroys my skin (although, oddly, not in certain places, like my hand/fingers). And one of the ingredients in neosporin will give me a bumpy rash if I use it too many days in a row, or on too large of an area.
Steph and I are again as one in our delicate-flower-ness. I'm allergic to latex, but I actually have less trouble with latex bandages than with the adhesives used on many of the non-latex ones. Latex just makes me itch and burn. Adhesives make my skin swell up and turn red and itch and then peel off.
omnis, thanks for the tegaderm rec! I'll track that down and try it.
With as many people that I know that have issues with adhesive you would think they would have come up with a better bandage option.
I was offered a renewal of my contract working here for next year, and I've got to let them know by May 1 whether I'm accepting it or not. A school that I really want to work for, and where I think I've got a really good chance of getting the job, just contacted me about setting up an interview. I explained the situation here with the deadline, and they said that they'd try to schedule my interview as soon as possible, but that they won't have a definite answer by May 1. I guess I'll see what "as soon as possible" means and then see what happens.
Can you tell your current school that you have personal issues and ask to extend your decision making time past May 1?
Oops. Just read your Facebook post. May 1 IS an extension. Sorry.
Ugh, I'm sorry that all is still up in the air. I hope you can at least have a good feel for the other position before May 1st.
Hill, do you actually have to sign a contract by May 1, or just let them know whether you intend to return?
When people are employing you year-to-year, you don't owe them anything other than prompt notification if you find a better job.
Much -ma to your father and your family, Maria.
Health~ma for your dad, Maria.
