Spent most of the night awake, thinking about the offer...I still don't know if I'm going to take it (I sent them an email last night with some additional questions). If I do take it I think the SF trip will be within the first couple of weeks of the job (so in Feb.). The place is in the Presidio (sp?), I think that's in SF??Quote:

I'm working on my serve in tennis right now - My stupid wrist is getting sore - hope that doesn't continue
Gotta start riding my trainer at least - since I've got my Mtn bike camp in Phoenix to lead in a couple of weekends I'm gonna just suck
Queen - congrats on the opportunity to choose! If the new job seems a bit "slow", you'll have more time to read TE?
cc - thanks for the link. I'd only heard a tiny bit about this. Somebody's career in marketing either just hit the toilet or is about to take off. (depending on how much trouble they get into. They certainly got some attention for the TV show!)
Queen - I'd take the library job. I have two friends who catalog images for the library systems. It can be very monotonous but it's also very low stress, and you can sometimes work from home.
No opportunity's to surf TE but I can wear an Ipod (if I can figure out to work one :D ).Quote:

Sheer torture, I tell ya! (being cheerful is harder than passing a kidney stone....:rolleyes: )
Roger that! Thank goodness I only have to be cheerful for intermittent 1:15-hour classes. And not even really cheerful--just civil. Even that's a challenge sometimes.;)Quote:

Oooh, so I'd get to see the Golden Gate!Quote:

I hear that Knott. I swear I have a bladder like a camel. It's not that I can't take a pee break, it's that I forget to when I'm busy. And well, I'm naturally sickeningly cheerful. If I'm grumpy, torturing people makes me cheerful so I get better when I'm at work. :D :DQuote:
