ltc's current book obsession is the Buffy picture book.

Fun! I wonder if there are still Buffy sticker books you could buy. Emmett liked those.

Thanks to dcp and Gud I have conquered the Google Authenticator, scanned the bar code and am finally returned from my exile in A's fandom. Woot.

I would never be able to do anything with this shit if I hadn't learned to go to my Chrome settings and review my passwords. I had to log into so many stupid little things to get it done.

Thrive to spite them

It rained and there were flood warnings, torandos spotted , road and school closures around the area. So work was slow. I spent most of my day refolding Levi's jeans since they've decided to change the way they are folded and it's something to do . Technically we don't have to do it but it was either that or refold t shirts. The joys of retail.

I did get a shout out at our morning meeting by Asset Protection. I called them about suspicious customers and they hadn't eyed them first AND they nabbed them so I'm getting $30 on my next pay check. I have been bad about not calling them because I'm worried I'm wrong or I'm profiling people but I decided not to worry about it and just call. Most of the time they tell me they've seen them already.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

That sounds like the damn end times.

So work was slow.

I mean, the end times would lead to work being slow.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I got a radioactive injection earlier and now have to wait 4 hours to it to get to my extremities before they scan my ankle.

Sounds like the the nuclear medicine bone scans I've had. Was it technetium they injected?

Ask for a copy of the images, on disk to take home.

No superpowers yet, alas.

Yeah although if it was the end times I'd be hearing more of "You should be able to beat your credit goal no one needs to worry about their credit score"

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'll look around for something like that. She's obsessed with stickers. She already wants to know when she can watch the show.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have put on some fake nails for my interview tomorrow, my nails were shot from the moving and unpacking. I've read up on the job description and now I think I'll go get my outfit ready and have a shower.

Interview is at 10 tomorrow, so I should have time to leisurely get ready in the morning.

I feel loved. Two different recruiters have reached out to me for the same position. The second one is a woman of color, and I think I'd prefer to work with her, but I can't after I've already talked to the other guy (who is perfectly nice), right?

good luck tomorrow, msbelle!

Vortex, I don't know what the protocol is for that.

Hey. New board.

but I can't after I've already talked to the other guy (who is perfectly nice), right?

I think you can. They are essentially interviewing for a job with YOU at this point and if you thought the second one was a better fit then you should be able to go with them.
