Try askamanager?

Yes! That was it. I knew Jesse would know.

I'm not really afraid of asking but I don't want to price myself out too early. I'd actually be willing to take less than I make now, if I thought the position was worth it. But I don't want to undersell myself either.

Well played, Brenda's sister!

I'm having tortellini from Panera for lunch, and I'm a little afraid it's not going to be satisfying, even though it's got plenty of calories! Hmph.

I have been ravenous all morning and exercising my willpower to avoid eating lunch way too soon.

Now I feel overly full, so I guess it was plenty!

Aaaaand now I can't get lunch at noon because they need me to join a meeting. Edit: The worst part about this meeting is that I'm 99.99% certain they need to be talking to someone else.

I thought I would make it through today without threatening to cut someone, but I see that was foolhardy.

FYI, writing someone's review is almost as painful as writing your own.

That's what I was thinking the best approach would be.
