its like an unpaid internship for nursing training. They have to (for my program) complete 200 hours in the OR with a surgeon who has agreed to train them.

I would think you would need to have MA Workmans' Comp in place for her if that is where the internship will be.

Oh, argh, I'm testing again tomorrow so all the stuff I haven't gotten to today will have to wait until Friday (unless I can squeeze it in which I wasn't really able to last time, or I stay late like I'm not doing today).

Oh well.

She isn't our employee, though. She is our student, so She is paying us! We have no employees in MA. We have a separate insurance policy that covers students in clinical placements which is also in the agreement. This sentence in contention says that in addition to the student all employees of the university need to have workers comp in compliance with MA laws.

Things you do when working at a public library: successfully identify a piece of classical music, as hummed by an elderly woman, over the phone. (Grieg, Peer Gynt, the Morning theme.)

Timelies all!

Health ~ma to your FiL, Burrell.

House ~ma to you, Zen.

Ugh, Zen -- good luck!

Thank-you emails for 30-minute virtual interview, yes? How few sentences can I get away with? (I am stuck at 2.) The cat stayed out of the picture.

I've pretty much come around to thank-you emails in every case, personally. And three sentences is plenty: Thanks for your time, I learned X Y&Z about the position that show how my experience is perfect, I look forward to being in touch.

Good job IDing the music, flea!

I was supposed to be almost to San Francisco by now. But instead we had to move to a new plane and be several hours delayed. Grr. I want it to be Thursday night and be home already. (Or better yet, Friday night so it's the weekend...)

I know that song- It's do do DOO do Do do do do DOO do DO do DOO do do DOO do do DOOOO.

We used another song from Peer Gynt for the bows of The Diary of Anne Frank, but I can't remember which. It is not Solveig's Song. (or In the Hall of Mountain King).

Wow, flea, that is impressive!

I am kind ticked off at my grandboss right now. So we have this issue with a customer, we are in the wrong, and it boils down to person X used data from the wrong column making a calculation. Which, fine, people make mistakes. But grandboss's knee-jerk pronouncement is the info we send to that department all has to be in Units. Except it was in Units, there was just additional information, and I even said "for Units please use column E" which was the correct column, so, what do we have to do differently?

I'm sure it will all boil down to no change ultimately, but I'm annoyed.

Now hopefully I can not think about it anymore. I need to get 45 minutes of moderate exercise somehow or other.

I know that song but wouldn't be able to put a name to it. It's in a Bugs Bunny cartoon, though (probably more than one).
