Naw, I'm letting them think I'm magic. My manager checked in with me to make sure things were going well and I told him that the work was much simpler than originally expected. But it is still detailed.

So, I'm hanging in the conference room with them, plugging away at getting caught up, working on their stuff as needed.

Thanks, everyone!

How soon do you get to tell the current employers to stuff it? Are you going to film it and show it every Christmas?

I should be able to give notice on Monday, assuming the drug test comes back negative (which it will).

As much as I'd love to tell them to fuck off, I'm just going to tell them that this job gives me the opportunity to move to PA and leave it at that. They did not make me sign a non-solicitation agreement, so when I take my customers with me I don't want karma to bite me in the ass.

Suzi, you ARE magic!

Blush. It is kinda fun. They mention something about maybe wanting a monthly burn rate analysis and a couple of minutes later I have one for them while they have rambled on. Ta-da!

Product question: a few years ago, I bought a some hair-remover-remover cleanser stuff. You'd use Nair or Neet or whatever hair remover cream like that, and then clean with this stuff. If there was still Nair left, it would turn pink, but after washing a few times, it stayed white. It was the only way I was ever able to use Nair without either smelling like the chemicals for days or scrubbing so much that I irritated my skin. I have no idea what it was called, and none of my google searches have yielded anything. Anyone know what this stuff was called, and if it's still being sold?

Do any of these look familiar, Hil? Probably not, but... [link]

Do you remember where you got it, or what color the package looked like?

I think I got it at CVS, but they don't seem to have it anymore. None of the ones you linked are it. Those are all for using a few days after the hair removal stuff. This was for immediately after. I can't remember what the package looked like.

Found it! It's this: [link]

Congrats Maria!!

I am a bad trivia team member. It's been one of my bad anxiety-depression-IBS days. As I was getting ready to leave, it started pouring and I said, "Fuck it."

OK, so Thursday. I get up to leave work, and my back just SHOOTS pain all around the lumbar area. I do stretches and what not that night. And Friday, I can at least move around, and the pain is a dull roar. Saturday, wanes a bit more. It came back yesterday. Not quite as bad, but still. Dude, WTF?! So it's fine when sitting. But then when I stand up, tons of pain. Then the first few steps feel like no matter how I twist/move the body, it's pain in the back. Then, once taking a few steps, it's (mostly) fine. Just a dull throb of pain, but nothing compared to the shooting pain. I just want it to stop. By that description, it would seem to be a compression type of thing (making shit up here, trying to troubleshoot my back, and I'm not trained in medical arts). With the release of the compression (sitting to standing), the feeling overloads the nerves in the area?? But standing and sitting are about the same compression on the lower spine. Unless the walking on the crutches releases some of it, or something. I dunno.
