OK, I'm trying to be calm, but it's hard.

Their hire decided that she couldn't handle the job *physically* (?!). They are paying me less than I wanted, but I will have 100% free health insurance.

Jesse, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:08 (eighteen years ago)

Admin assist at a law firm, but they said that it will turn into a legal assistant, and they were supportive of my plans to go to school for paralegal studies while I worked.

Jesse, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:09 (eighteen years ago)

Why bother being calm? This is a good time to flip out.

La Lechera, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:09 (eighteen years ago)

I actually squealed in Argo Tea.

Jesse, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:09 (eighteen years ago)

When do you start?

La Lechera, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:09 (eighteen years ago)

. . . and once they see how awesome you are IN ACTION they will want to throw more money at you.

sweet tater, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:09 (eighteen years ago)

I have to go to work. I am...ebullient.

Jesse, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:10 (eighteen years ago)

Funniest sentences on this thread today:
1. I know a baby with a fake iPod.
2. I actually squealed in Argo Tea.

n/a, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:10 (eighteen years ago)

THANK CHRIST. Now that Jesse's gone to work we can FINALLY talk about something other than his AMMMAAAAAAZING NEW JOB.

n/a, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:11 (eighteen years ago)

j/k

n/a, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:11 (eighteen years ago)

I am going to be the best, sharpest little assistant this city ever saw.

Jesse, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:11 (eighteen years ago)

That wasn't as funny as it seemed in my head.

n/a, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:11 (eighteen years ago)

The Best, Sharpest Little Assistant This City Ever Saw should be an animated musical or something.

sweet tater, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:12 (eighteen years ago)

OK....

Off to sling chum.

Jesse, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:13 (eighteen years ago)

Once I clean all this feces off the walls at Argo....

Jesse, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:13 (eighteen years ago)

Bye lovers!

Congrats, Jesse!!

jaymc, Tuesday, 14 August 2007 21:15 (eighteen years ago)

congratulations!!! please don't shit in my pants!!

My mom insists on answering, "Hello?" even when she sees my number on the phone. When she types "phone" she puts a little ' in front, so you know she's abbreviating "telephone."

JITTERBUG.

I sometimes answer "hello" even with caller ID because I get a kick out of people saying "Dan?"

-- dan m, Tuesday, August 14, 2007 10:40 AM (12 hours ago) Bookmark Link

I don't understand. I always answer the phone "Hello?", even though I only ever answer calls from numbers I recognize. Sometimes I will say "Hey," but I don't think "hello" is so weird at all.

Jesse, Wednesday, 15 August 2007 04:28 (eighteen years ago)

OK, so I think I can start Thursday. I will have to work out a short notice at the restaurant, though I really hope I can still work 2 shifts per week there, both for the money and for the funny.

Jesse, Wednesday, 15 August 2007 04:41 (eighteen years ago)

YAAAYYY, Jesse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(By the way, I got your letter! THANK YOU)

USA v. BRAZIL @ Soldier Field!

http://www.ussoccer.com/articles/viewArticle.jsp_1998867.html

Katie, Matt, and I are going. It's a little pricey but... BRAZIL! Supposedly they're bringing all the stars along, too.

dan m, Wednesday, 15 August 2007 13:35 (eighteen years ago)

Will they be selling novelty bottle openers?

jaymc, Wednesday, 15 August 2007 13:40 (eighteen years ago)

speaking of allowing extra travel time, did anybody else have to sit on a dead train for 20 minutes this morning? They said something about "police activity" at one of the stations.

But then the train went express and I made it on time anyway.

kenan, Wednesday, 15 August 2007 14:15 (eighteen years ago)

Are there any good online crosswords out there? The UI on the AV Club's xword is great.

This has been bothering me for a while since it's at the top of the screen, but what is "UI"?

jaymc, Wednesday, 15 August 2007 14:36 (eighteen years ago)

Oh wait, "user interface"? I just googled it. I thought it was a crossword term, haha.

jaymc, Wednesday, 15 August 2007 14:37 (eighteen years ago)

I am craving some of those maple candies that you can get in New England or at Cracker Barrel.
