Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
|
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
"Well...he needs rescuing alright."
And much like his mentor Gilligan, he will never be rescued. . .
He also kinda looks like he's about to be shot out of a cannon and he's thrilled about it. What a doofus.
Well, It never rains, but it pours!
Remember the 'city' job that I was considered for before? Well, the person they hired then did ~not~ work out, and they asked for me. I am set to go up there on Friday to ~try~ and see. The person I will be working for I get the sense is ~not~ easy.
This is really problematic! It's an hour drive each way, a stressful job for good money, but a lifestyle change for sure, and the problem is my existing job, which I wouldn't be giving up really, was about to get busier and make more money also. I had been working for a pretty small stipend, but there are now funds available to make it nearly full time again if we wanted. Of course there would be added work to do for it also.
We need the money of course... Question is how much can I do? And I'd need help! ecurbh is making pretty good money on web design, but that may be on again off again depending on contracts he can get.
Can I go into this job asking for 3/4 time or 4-10s or even 4-8s as just a condition of the job? It's a long commute to do 5 days. And working 4 days would allow me to do the other job too.
Problems and decisions! It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life!
Well....see if you can get 4/10's....that's one less beating per week. :)
2. Only in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
3. Neither. Fills like water, tastes like a drug-test specimen.
4. 'Nilla Wafers. Or Eggos. Leggo already.
5. There's nothing quite like a good game of "put out the torches and figure out which of us are women."
And to the non-yet-asked next question: Because I'm a smart-aleck who always has to have a snappy answer to everything.
Hey howdy there!! [sip]
Well... sounds like good news on the job front-- of course, it's a change of routine, but for now it seems best to go with the money. Worry about how to make the routine work later.
I can't say about the schedule, other than I'd hesitate to bring it up rignt off the bat. Not all jobs are workable in 4 tens, but some are. Might want to wait, do the job for a while, and see if it is even a practical suggestion.

OOO thats a good one too...will have to see if Barnes and Noble will have it.
...a stressful job for good money...
Most of us settle for a stressful job for any money.
Best to you!
LOL!
Answers sound correct, except #1. This is where all the left socks in the universe go :)
You say that like it's a bad thing...
Oh, good evening!
Discuss!
*Having been invested as such upon the passing into the COSMOS of Carl Sagan
The hoe-zone.
Didn't notice any of 'em carrying extra socks...
Try to find some historical fiction! I'll look in my kids' reading suggestions for their history curriculum and I'll post if I find any appropriate titles.
Carl Sagan:
But others say there are billions and billions of black holes--and billions and billions of lost socks. . .
ROFL! Maybe that's the part where the left stockings go :)
Please send them! I'm planning to make an Enchilada Casserole ( like a Mexican Lasagna) while we're at the reunion, so I'll need both recipes!
Jean al Query looks like such a DORK in that picture!
Did you see the PBS series? How long ago was that...'81? '82?
