I have kicked the ass of my review panel

Dec 07, 2005 16:28

*slumps in victory* I have gotten seven people to agree to review! I have left upwards of 18 voicemails, spoken to four people in person, sent about 30 emails. With 18 people who haven't responded yet, I should be able to get my full 15. Pshew. I am worn the heck out ( Read more... )

em...you're not allowed office supplies? em...that's kinda, well, evilcorp of them.

but yay you... review like the wind young one!

No longer allowed binders and tabs to present our cut and paste and synopses in. New boss-boss is the biggest cheapskate on the planet.

Also, you're channeling my friend Doug... "Write like the wind Young Ben Danley, and let your story be 20 1.5 column inches long..."

*nostalgic*

*blink*

Okay, I didn't understand most of this (is this what chemistry sounds like to you?)

but....WTF YOU AREN'T ALLOWED OFFICE SUPPLIES???????
what kind of moron doesn't let people who work in an office use office supplies?

If they try taking your stapler you should um....*doesn't remember the movie well enough damnit*

regardless, congrats on earning a victory dance.

Yeah, sorry for the jibberish. Remember how we talked about peer reviews? This is that. I get people to read a book and answer questions about it. Then I have to organize all the reviews I get by chapter (and then again by question about the chapter) so we can see everyone's opinion about item x in chapter y and then I summarize it all. Boring from chez boring.

And yeah again. We're supposed to do all this stuff, but are no longer allowed to use binders and tabs, and are even discouraged from printing them out at all. They also have not yet authorized 2006 calendars for us. And they buy ONE kind of pen, in blue.

I believe the proper response to having your stapler stolen is to set the building on fire, actually. *considers*

None of this makes any sense to me, but it all so very busy and important so GO YOU.

Er, it all sounds very busy and important. I might have been looking at your Ron icon a little bit while typing.

hiyacynth December 8 2005, 03:37:41 UTC

Ron can have that effect on a girl.

Dude I just watched Sociopath!Zeke in O. You're right. That's fucked up. And Zeke looks really dirtyhot in his school uniform.
