Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I went to the dollar store and picked up a pirate skull cap with cross bones on the front to go with my costume. All I need now is a pirate hat and a sword. And to finish my costume... delayed until I finish that document. Perfect time now since I'm all alone! |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() All done first rough draft! I just found these jokes posted in the forum and thought I would share: A triathlete was walking around in town one day when his friend, another triathlete, rode up on an incredible shiny new bike. The first chap was stunned and asked, "Where did you get such a fantastic bike?" The friend replied, "Well, yesterday I was out running in the forest just minding my own business when this beautiful woman rode up to me on this bike. She threw the bike to the ground, took off all her clothes and said, "Take what you want!" The first chap nodded approvingly, "Good choice. The clothes probably wouldn't have fitted you anyway." A man was out jogging in the forest one day when a frog called out to him and said, "If you kiss me I'll turn into a beautiful princess." He bent over, picked up the frog, and put it in his pocket. The frog spoke up again and said, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will tell everyone how smart and brave you are and how you are my hero." The man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it, and returned it to his pocket. The frog spoke up again and said, "If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I'll stay with you for a year and do ANYTHING you want." Again the man took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it, and put it back into his pocket. Finally the frog asked, "What's the matter? I've told you I'm a beautiful princess, that I'll stay with you for a year and do anything you want. Why won't you kiss me?" The man replied, "Look, I'm a Triathlete. I don't have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog is cool." |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I'm kind of sad. I just got back from my interview. We were sitting there having a nice talk. Things seemed like they were going fine and then suddenly it was over. He didn't ask me anything specific about my skills. We talked about his company and about what the companies did that I worked for. He had asked what I like to do in my spare time and I told him I'm training for a triathlon. (Was that a mistake?) So I asked if there was anything else he would like to ask me and he said "I think I know where you're at" and that was it. He didn't ask for references or anything. So I offered him the copy of the best written cover letter I have ever written and my references and drove home. I would say things went well except for one thing he said part way through "You have two of the three things we are looking for." I was really hoping this would go somewhere. Well its out of my hands now. Either they will call or they won't. I guess I better get back to doing my current job. |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Melissa - are you still around! Just wanted to say I'm sorry to hear you are struggling to find the right job. Things are so difficult sometimes! I really can't compare because I do have a job but I have a degree, and PhD and nearly 5 years postdoc experience right now and I'm struggling to break into being an independent researcher which means I'm always on 12 month contracts. In fact right now I am on a 2month waiting for some money to (hopefully) come in. The main drama with me is that I'm in Australia on a working visa so no job, no visa....I qualify for residency but don't see the point in applying if I might have to move countries again within the year anyway.... Sorry, this was supposed to be about you! If there is anything I can do.....I'm always happy to proof read your teaching philosophy if you are looking for another opinion (I have lots of opinions). |
