wow .... descended into the depths, huh?
My bitch for the day: yesterday and today I couldn't get enough sleep because recruiters started calling me at like 7:45 am.
Sure, it's my own fault for going to bed at 5 am, knowing that I'm in demand and all. But still! Effing recruiters... couldn't wait till like 11 at least?
Were they Mormons recruiting you for their religion?
Like most days, I'm happy to report no bitches today. Unfortunately a lot of people think I'm bitching when I'm just bringing up topics for discussion.

Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Nope, job recruiters. Apparently someone with exactly my skillset is in an absurd level of demand around here.Originally Posted by Animeniax
However, the first interview I went to this month, I ran into some Mormons at the station while I was on my way home. I was dressed in a suit and tie carrying a backpack, they were dressed in suits and ties carrying a backpack.
They were the most understanding missionaries I've ever talked to. I didn't even have to break out my dabblings in Bible scholarship or my extensive repertoire of Zen parables to get them to go away.
Anyway, Tuesday was the only day this week that I didn't have some sort of interview. Wednesday of next week is the first weekday that I don't have an interview scheduled yet. It's ... seriously getting a little out of hand. I think the interview I went to day is very likely going to result in a favorable sounding offer....
That's why I don't even give them my #...I make them email me instead.
Another option is to get up a grandcentral account and just instantly send people to voicemail if you're not available.

Today I sliced my fingertip on the blade of the deli slicer and it hurt like a bitch. That thing is so damned sharp my finger wouldn't stop bleeding. At least I was smart enough to apply pressure to the cut right away and it's closed now but I'm wearing a fresh bandage just in case it re-opens. Hooray for fingertip cuts.
You work at a deli? Pretty cool man. I'd like to work at a deli.
I lost a pair of $60 sunglasses today. Add that to the $80 flashlight I lost a year ago out here, and it kind of sux.

Every time I see that word I think of "fleshlight."
Nah, we just have a small deli at my parent's corner store...nothing crazy. I was bandage-free for a little while but then it started opening up again. I think I've gone through 5 bandages today.
I hope you wear gloves when preparing food with that gash. Small business ownership is even better. I worked at a Subway, which sort of counts as a deli. That sucked.

I always wear a clean set of those disposable deli gloves when I'm slicing meat. Unless if it's for a sandwich for myself then I just wash my hands, well normally.
