Hopstretch Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Looks like the wife has a new gig that will keep her a lot closer to home for the next six months or so. Upside, regular childcare assistance. Downside, regular inventory of "Wall Of Scotch". Hmmm.

The Monkey Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Went to a luncheon. Met Archbishop Dolan. Seems like a good guy. Saw a bunch of partners who used to boss my ass around. It's nice to be the client.
MexicanDragon Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I seem to have gotten a job offer today... **BRENT** P.S. Get better, Aimless. You're gonna take over my "drama princess" title if you don't simmer down.
guzziguy Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 No more Heartbreak Hotel, eh Elvis? Congrats.
Voltron Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Upside: drink more. Sage advice. Went to a luncheon. Met Archbishop Dolan. Seems like a good guy. Saw a bunch of partners who used to boss my ass around. It's nice to be the client. I hope you made them grovel and kiss your ring, or maybe Dolan's ring. Damn bossy partners! I seem to have gotten a job offer today... **BRENT** P.S. Get better, Aimless. You're gonna take over my "drama princess" title if you don't simmer down. w00t! Go for it slacker!
Sherwood Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Got my notice that I passed the first stage of the Foreign Service exam, and promptly started writing for the second stage. Took a break to drive to a 50th birthday party through the driving snow. All in all, a good day to be in Colorado, and a better day to be on the way out.
Aimless1 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I seem to have gotten a job offer today... **BRENT** Great news Brent!

MexicanDragon Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 I believe it when MD is not in chat during the day.... Next week, my good man... Next week. Well, next Friday or the following Monday. All I gotta do now is pass a drug test (no worries) and pass a background check (which MAY have already been run). Should get my new badge made up the middle of next week. 29 months and 4 days since my last "real" job. I hate breaking that streak... **BRENT** P.S. Kidding about being sad about breaking that streak. I'm sick of being a bum. P.P.S. Thanks for the kind words, guys.
nattonrice Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Gave my '09 Ph.D. progress talk to the department. It went very well compared to my talk at my research seminar on Wednesday =]
Hopstretch Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 Woke up early, achey and grumpy. What are you lookin' at, asswipe?
Beefy Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 It went very well compared to my talk at my research seminar on Wednesday =] From someone in the field, you have to be good at the seminars. At conferences etc, you simply cannot under-estimate the value of coming across well in spoken presentations Practice, practice, practice, and take on as much teaching as your schedule allows for. If you can keep the attention and interest of 30+ annoying first year students who couldn't care less about what you are saying, then you can definitely manage with experts who specifically came to see you because they are very interested in what you have to say......

grawk Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 do you need a headshell weight? I don't think so, but how would I know? The arm balances just fine (it's a biotracer).
luvdunhill Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 I don't think so, but how would I know? The arm balances just fine (it's a biotracer). well, it basically wouldn't dial in at the proper tracking force. Looks like you're good then. enjoy!
