You have to interview for a perm at 4? Is Paul Mitchel giving you the perm himself?

[Yooper]

C'mon! It's almost 8 PM in the east. Give us an update!

 

[Thunder_Chicken]

[Homercidal]

[Goofynewfie]

Maybe one of his meads killed him

 

[Subsailor]

It was the dreaded Okra Mead, i'm sure of it.

 

[HefeHood]

Probably so busy with the new position that he forgot about this thread.

 

[jhoneycutt]

Or he's just too good for us now with the fancy new job

 

[Thunder_Chicken]

I hope he remembers us little people, someday

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

They had more material for him to fill out based on the psychological profile questionnaire.

 

[day_trippr]

CG thought he was going to become a Made Man, but...well, did you see Goodfellas?

He will be missed...

Jimmy Conway: You get it straightened out?

Vinnie: No, we had a problem... and uh, we tried to do everything we could.

Jimmy Conway: What d'you mean?

Vinnie: Well, you what I mean. He's gone, and we couldn't do nothing about it.

[pause]

Vinnie: That's it.

Jimmy Conway: What d'you mean? What d'you mean? Uh...

Vinnie: He's gone. Uh, he's gone.

[pause]

Vinnie: And that's it.

 

[DanH]

NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Creeeeeaaaaammmmmmyyyyy....!!!

 

[Thunder_Chicken]

I guess he is too good for beer now, and is settling into the three-martini lunch crowd.

 

[CBMbrewer]

Creamy, full time position?
I can already hear Robert De Niro crying

 

[Melana]

Yeah, it's like 'No please - No, no!'

 

[CreamyGoodness]

I still have no idea if this mess is going to happen. I went away this week to Presque Isle MI for my yearly vacation with the inlaws just afterwards... so things right now could go either way. Thanks for all the good wishes all.

I mean that.

 

[bob1852]

He livessssssss!!!!

 

[Goofynewfie]

He came to see us!

Presque Isle is beautiful, haven't been there in about 35 years - glad to see you back CG!

So, officially made it to round 2 even though I beat the crap out of myself for poor interview performance. Usually I rip up an interview, but this time I was thrown some (rather unnecessary imo) stumpers. Made it anyway. Here's to hoping.

Funny you should be the last one to post Sailor... thought of you when my father-in-law caught a 4.5 lb large-mouth bass and gave it over to me to filet (he's not big on killing things, even fish). I got him fileted on the dock and then popped the rest of him sans-guts in the stock pot. Hopefully the m-i-l finds some good use for fish stock. The filets I grilled in a tinfoil pouch with some dill, lemon slices, dried italian seasoning, olive oil and salt and pepper (a little crushed red pepper too). When they were done the juices in the pouch made a nice sour drizzling "sauce". Pretty awesome!

Excellent. Use me as a reference.

Finally got word, and it was good. Guy tells me he wants to touch base, this is at noon, and doesnt get around to it until 5. Way to make me sweat. When I did get to talk to him he said "I think its safe to say this is a go, I just have to think a little more about timing. You should feel good that you now have a plan." Load off my mind.

Last night I celebrated with a can of beer and a $3 cigar on my balcony

That sounds great. Well, the beer does.

Congrats on the new job. But what does "I just have to think a little more about timing" mean?

 

[CreamyGoodness]

The start date. Looks like instead of starting at the new position before my contract runs out, looks like Im going to work the full contract before starting at headquarters. That suits me just fine, even if I wind up getting a day or 2 off.
