    X- CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!

    Dear NGWA,

    I understand everyone is busy, yada-yada-yada. But please grade and get the results of DH's Master's Certification to us soon. It may not seem like a big deal to you, but DH has invested hours upon hours studying and traveling to take the dozen exams leading up to the final. Not to mention all the money we've put into this. You told us 4-6 weeks to receive the results, it has now been 9 weeks. Please just call already so I can take DH out for a congratulatory dinner.

    Thank you,
    Limewave

    Dear Big Kahuna Boss at my just-got-the-news-I'm-hired-yesterday job... You couldn't wait one freakin' week to put a hiring freeze on, smart guy? Why today? Are you bored?

    I feel like a yo-yo. I still have the offer from the manager and he really needs this position filled ASAP. Vacations are about to start. I'm really glad I didn't fly off the handle, do a jig into my current boss's office and give notice yesterday. Anyway, I'm sending you a cartoon video of how I feel right now. (not safe for work but not horrible either) Enjoy! I look forward to actually meeting you someday.

    Ya know, ya just gotta laugh at situations like this and take them in stride.

    X, does that mean you didn't get the job, or that you just don't know yet?

    As far as the boss is concerned, he said, the job is hers... but there was a hiring freeze announced this morning which means the boss needs to go to his bosses again and say "Yes, I really, really need to fill this position. I know who I want. please let me hire her."
    so... it could be as short as a week or as long as.... what month is this?

    ugh.
