Okay, good thing I didn't try to arrange drinks or anything, because it's 7 p.m., and here I still am. Zipping up 5 years worth of personal email and trying to burn it to disc. It will likely not work at all. Have sent off the final of my goodbye messages and now just need to set up my Out-of-Office message to say something along the lines of " ( Read more... )

"Take this job and shove it. I ain't workin' here no more!"Dear LJ ( Read more... )

I got a new job!!!

Did you catch that?

I got a new job!!I got a call on my application a week ago, and the nice woman said they wanted to interview me Friday. So I spent Friday afternoon at their offices, doing their editorial tests and talking with three of the editorial staff, and it went really well. Apparently, REALLY well, because the HR ( Read more... )

Okay, couple of things. I'm gonna try to keep this positive. Last week was my week to wallow, and I honestly can't keep up the level of angst I'd hit without doing some serious damage. So. Positive outlook wherever possible.

First, hey! Happy birthday to my good friend and fantasti!beta, iamstealthyone! I'm following up on my decades-long tradition of coming in ( Read more... )

Yesterday at 4:45 p.m. my team got an email informing us of a meeting with Stewart (boss-boss) this morning at 8:30. Which is typical Stewart--waiting till the very end of the day to announce that we all have to be in half an hour early. I'd started shutting down early because the roads are terrible because of the snow and ice, and I had to be sure ( Read more... )

Howdy. I realized sometime yesterday that I couldn't remember the last time I posted. More than a week ago, it seems. I'm here, I've just been feeling reclusive lately and have had ridiculously little to say about anything. In one of those not-quite-funks where I don't feel social or creative, which makes fannishness less compelling.

( Cut for a rather lengthy and potentially boring update about my life and my weekend, including contemplation of a job possibility, my flirtation with a fanboy, what an annoying cube neighbor I must be, and me going 'meehhhh i haven't been writing' and 'mehhhh i dunno about LJ' )

This morning when I got to work, I was greeted by this email from my boss-boss's assistant:

Team:

Just a reminder to use the white bonded contract paper only for Publishing Agreements and Amendments! Work-for-Hires/Consultant Agreements should be on the beige bonded contract paper ( Read more... )

Mainly posting to check out the new update interface. It's weird, but I imagine I'll get used to it just in time for them to change it again. I gotta say, today being Thursday with both no new Supernatural and no likethesun2 stinks. Sigh. It would have been my turn to host, and I would have served her onion jelly on crackers ( Read more... )

Thankfully my morning was shitty enough that I was thinking ahead when I was at the grocery store at lunch, and bought myself beer. Huh. Isn't that one of the signs of alcoholism? When you're planning your next drink? Interesting ( Read more... )
