Who’s [Not] Doing Their Job?

Posted in Penny Circular at 10:27 PM by Myles

A credit charge that really needs to be there isn’t. Have asked to make it twice. What well-established corporation has every single employee take two full, straight weeks of vacation? And then ask me to make the charge a third time? If they have someone mailing the letter… how about someone making the charge into reality?

Have survived US Airplanes [and their "security"] once again. Oh No! Alert Orange! Be Scared! Your Babies Will Die! Your Chocolate Rations Will Increase From 25 Grams To 20 Grams! What Cool Black Uniforms & Skull Cuff-Links You & Your Coworkers Have!

End-Of-Year eBay sales have been made. Must pack, ship, receive money, repeat until done.

Am also tired; entertaining a 2 year old for a thousand miles can do that.

Be Seeing You.

“This Week” With StayOnTopOfThis.

Posted in Penny Circular at 7:48 AM by Myles

I’ve spent the past week in Iowa, which as been on the whole good. I’ve finished two books, started a third and received several more. I also gained some useful information and acted, or will act,, accordingly [once I get home or already have].

One thing hasn’t happened yet, which is annoying. I’m not sure if it’s because people are on vacation or the mail is slow; am searching for information.

More in a few days when I get back home.

Be Seeing You.

Three Of SWE.

Posted in Penny Circular at 12:09 PM by Myles

I’ve had four interviews so far. At every one, I have been asked how//why I am a member of SWE [Society Of Women Engineers] as I am not a woman. Most of the time.

The Odd Part: For #1, #2 & #4, it was always the 3rd person I interviewed with who asked me. Not the first, not the fifth, not the fourth or second, but always the 3rd person. What about Interview #3? Only two people interviewed me there, so that would make me the 3rd person.

What I’ve Learned

  • I am 3rd person and as such must avoid the sewers of Vienna
  • A five-person, 2.5hr interview can be tiresome
  • Having the person with whom you have many personal history overlaps say that he’s “impressed” is great

I love the Obama Impersonator. “Need For Change” meets “I Want To Believe”.

Busy December.

Posted in Penny Circular at 5:18 PM by Myles

December is becoming really busy, really fast. I have multiple appointments and events starting Thursday.

Not complaining yet though. It’s good.

Recessions.

Posted in Penny Circular at 7:23 PM by Myles

Though good for society in the long run, they are annoying for individuals in the short run. Obvious [so don't say it], but annoying.

Holiday Spirit.

Making people happy is awesome, especially if it empties my closet.
