Sigh...Mr. S didn't fall asleep until almost 10, and has been acting up all day.
I feel his/your pain. I read until around 1AM, was exhausted, and then was completely unable to fall asleep when I tried. Rinse and repeat. My body was like, oh, you think you're going to sleep now? Good luck with that when every single position you lie in somehow manages to cut off blood flow to your arm.
For those who anticipate this time of year, the Pumpkin Spice must flow.
Mac has been in UPS 2 hours!
That sounds promising!
Was Outpost.com the herding cats one?
Cat Herding was for EDS, which seems not to have survived, even if they had a great commercial.
It has its own Wikipedia entry.
Oh, and a detail from the entry:
Trainers taught the cats to swim by starting them out in one-quarter inch of water, then gradually building the pool to swimming depth. . . . Since we were shooting in nippy weather, our 'river' was actually a small pool warmed by a portable heater, like a little cat Jacuzzi.[2]
Googled, and it was one I vaguely remember: gerbil cannon
It will be up to a week and a half to hear back from UPS as they do a background check and the job would be part time, 15-25 hours a week Sun-Thurs 10am - 5:30pm shifts where you may not always work the full shift, but would work at least 3 hours. He'll need a car quickly as that will be hard to manage pick up and drop off while I am working at it is located 30 min away.
I have a friend from high school who started working for UPS part time when he was probably around 19. He's actually still there, gets really good benefits, and makes a decent wage. It's a union job, so once he makes it past the probation period there's good protection on it. He'll have to turn up on time and do the work, but if he can manage that, then it might be a good place. There is also usually a lot of opportunity to pick up extra hours when they are in their peak season, which is pretty much Mid November through December.
That would be hilarious for people in a shared office -- like, one is the hungry version, one is the Snickers version
That would be hilarious!
I am suspecting tomorrow night I will be totally unable to sleep, between (a) anxiety/anticipation for trip and (b) needing to wake up about 4AM.
