 Chatham Ontario |  Subject: RE: TAN #203: TANese New Year - Horsing AroundOriginally posted by lisac957 Just had a 4th interview. FOURRRRRTH. It was a "hey let's swing by the cafeteria and eat in my office" type of thing with the head guy. He kept apologizing for making me eat on an interview, haha! All I could do was eat the chicken out of my salad. I was not nervous at all, but eating a salad while trying to impress an executive and answer questions is challenging. Awesome good for you. It is always a good sign in my mind when you are in the casual meeting/interview. It means the person interviewing is comfortable as well. Best of luck to you. I hope you are excited to possibly make a move. |

| Chatham Ontario | Subject: RE: TAN #203: TANese New Year - Horsing Around For some reason I feel exhausted. I didn't even wake up when Amie fed the baby. But We did get woke up a tad early. Also ok I was able to get up and give Amie her new Wonder Woman coffee mug for her birthday today. And my daughter turns 6 months old today as well. WOW now I understand when people say time flies with kids. |

WOWEE this is crazy....how are you feeling about the job? the chances of getting the job? and salad is far too awkward to eat. what ISN'T awkward to eat in an interview??? I know, I almost got soup but the vision of slurping and spilling it on my suit was too much. I felt great about it! |

Similar thing when I had my 5th interview here with the plant manager for about 2 hours. It was very casual and he spent about 30 mins talking about this company and the job and where he envisioned me a couple years from now in the company. Maybe it was an attempt to sell me on a progressive future. But the other 90 mins was casual conversation about myself. You kind of know at that point you have nailed it skills wise and they are double checking personality for fit. |

I am ashamed about the thoughts that popped into my head that made me laugh when I was thinking of how to respond to this. It probably would have been more of a Cord/Brad/Pitt response!
Anyways, good luck on the interviews! |

Thursday, the family is flying out to Colorado for some spring skiing. I can't wait either. I can't wait to see my 5 yr old cruising down the mountain! He is going to love it! |

Such a great place. |

Elite 4344 | Subject: RE: TAN #203: TANese New Year - Horsing Around The temperature is forecast to be 23 F tonight at the lake house and I am on the phone asking the boat dealer to go up tomorrow or Thursday to de-winterize the boat. I am counting on a boat ride/maybe skiing on Sunday. Do you think I am a bit too optimistic that spring will be here when I want it? Forecast says high of 66 F and sunny on Sunday, lows in the mid 30's. What would TAN do? TW |

Regular 1023 Madrid | Subject: RE: TAN #203: TANese New Year - Horsing Around Play early. Be a winner. Here's my day so far and the subsequent fallout. Players are me and counterparty at home office. Me- I'm going to send you an email that states the calculations in the table you sent me were wrong, and that we can not hold this trade to maturity because locally we are not able to liquidate in this currency. Also copied on the mail will be my legal guy that needs the confirmation so he can draft a letter to the client. Understood, right ? Other guy- OK got it, Understood. Calculations were wrong due to software glitch and can not hold trade to maturity due to liquidation restrictions. Mail comes. He confirms the exact opposite. I'm like are you fricking kidding me. I will do everything in my power to get this idiot fired..... |

Forecast says high of 66 F and sunny on Sunday, lows in the mid 30's. What would TAN do? TW I used to try and ski on the weekend closest to my birthday, which is coming up on Thursday. Back in the old days, I did this without a wetsuit. I won't be doing it that way if I go in this weekend. Water temperature is about 50 up in the cove and colder in the main channel. I saw my crazy neighbor barefoot on a warm day in January. He was in a wetsuit top and bare footing pants. That is just showing off. If it really is sunny, it might be ok. We will probably just go for ride. We are headed to Brazil for a couple of weeks in April so this weekend may be my only chance for a while. It is sunny and breezy here in Atlanta today. The cherry trees are in bloom. It is like a pink snowfall in the neighborhoods with the petals that have fallen off the trees. I gather that much of the northeast is getting the real stuff. Have a good day. TW |

If the boyfriend comes into a LOT of money, my uncle is a homebuilder in the Vail--Red Sky-Eagle areas... he could hook ya up with a place for just a couple million.
I've only ever been out to Colorado for enjoyment once, and it was in the warmer weather so I never got to check out the skiing Been there twice for work, but never long enough to do anything fun.

Sensei Sin City | Subject: RE: TAN #203: TANese New Year - Horsing Around Ah, Colorado. My soul belongs there - it pains me that I'm not... Anyway. Sorry about the snow. Played a round of golf on Sunday in shorts and a T-shirt. Absolutely beautiful today as well. Mid 70's, sunny, no wind. May hit the range or go for a run or both.

It started snowing here at about 10 am, and is still snowing. (second favorite is www.dhmo.org)
The GF is going away for a week on Thursday with her kids, and so I am puppy sitting for one of the dogs (she is taking the other). |
