I didnt realise he could wear anything else....

I also have a blue and white tri top, but no-one was there to take pics...

I should have brought a camera!  I realized it after the fact

Actually the job applicant thing might not be too bad.... happens a lot with jobs here because so many of the positions are so specialised and the industry pool not that deep so... you either get a couple of reasonably or well qualified people OR young'uns who want to take a leap into something (yes I realise Im a young'un)

Basically 3 applicants is fine as long as one of them will fit and do the job! It might be a good sign that the job advertisement means only the right people will apply!



One is a young'un. (No experience at all.)

One is actually overqualified, I think. (Which makes me wonder why they've applied.)

And the third, I'm willing to bet, is doesn't have the necessary qualifications. (Although they have a nice work history, but that's not enough.)

Sal was a very good sport and took it easy on my - I'm sure he hasn't 'run' at that slow of a pace ever

Thanks again Sal!

Did you make it to Chicago with no problem?

Knew the two of us would figure it out eventually!

 

How are you Jen?

Go go, super brains!

i'm doing ok. Tired of the stomach issues, but still waiting to hear from my doctor's office. And moving sucks. So glad it's done.

How are you feeling?

When are you due to hear from the docs?

Hopefully tomorrow.  I left a message today, but I think he was out of the office. 

Ok will keep my fingers crossed and try to rememver to ask tomorrow morning (my time)

it's good they are including you on the interviews!

it's always interesting to see if the 'papers' really match up!



Well, there's no "fudging" it. They either have the necessary degree, or they don't. If they do, we can interview them. If they don't, they are told that they can't interview.

(We had one person interested, but he had the wrong degree. So he was told not to even apply.)

You should have made him run backwards.

AND I agree - he should have worn Sparco Yellow.

Over qualified - maybe they really want the job, maybe they want a change? You HAVE to be positive Dee - otherwise werk might take over your BT time forever!!!!

At this point, a warm body will suffice. I'll just dump half the workload on it, and let the whole thing ferment. (Or putrify. Whichever.)

(I have become quite a pessimist lately, though. I think it's because of all the work....)
