-thotlady Well, it’s Tuesday night. LOST just ended. Gosh I love that show. I am going to miss it. 9 more episodes ’til the finale. Llana Richard Eyeliner Claire Sayid Kate Sawyer (James) John Locke (Black thing) Jack Jin Ben Linus Hurley Sun Miles Lapidus (We’re not going to Guam are we?) I do believe the two parallel worlds of the castaways will collide in the end. How that plays out is anybody’s guess. It was a nice touch this week when Linus redeemed himself in the eyes of his daughter. I do feel like he has drifted quite far from his original character. Ben and Locke seemed to have changed the most through the seasons. The writers of LOST are very good. I do hope they manage to pull it all together to their audience’s satisfaction. I’ll just leave you with this little gem… -thotlady
Mondays are always difficult for me. A crashing end to the weekend, then going back to the rat-race that is work. My department is in the process of hiring an associate dean. This has been going on for a year. This is the third iteration. Hopefully we will hire one from the four candidates we are interviewing. I am in charge of creating and setting up the agenda for each candidate’s visit. We bring them in for 2-1/2 days of interviews, campus tours, meeting with faculty/staff/students and giving them a tour of the city. A lot of work and logistics are involved. Needless to say not a lot of other work gets done. On top of that my boss is traveling to the West Indies soon and I am in charge of scheduling her flight, lodging and itinerary to three campuses in Jamaica, Barbados and Trinidad/Tobago. Also a lot of work. Well, we are on the third candidate for the associate dean position, we have the fourth coming in on Wednesday. So by the end of the week, we should be finished. So, Monday is not my favorite day of the week. But, my mom would say…at least you have a job. Yes mom I know. -thotady I am applying for a new job at the university where I work. Of course I filled out an application for the position with human resources. At the end of the application there was a note that said you will also have to fill out a supplemental application from the department itself that they will send you. Okay, so I finally received the supplemental application in my email. I begin to fill it out. They ask for 5 personal references, which cannot be your family or previous employers. Five seems like a lot to me. But I asked five of my friends if they would be so kind as to be my personal reference. Sheesh. Then at the bottom of the application I have to list every job I had in the past. Name of employer, address of employer, phone number, supervisor, dates of employment, salary, description of work, why I left…HELLO…all of this information is on the main application with Human Resources not to mention it is duplicated on my resume. Three times, they get this information. Now I ask you. Is that really necessary? How crazy is this… -thotlady P.S. And at the very bottom of the application they ask for a copy of my high school diploma and my birth certificate. I don’t even know if I still have my high school diploma, since I received it 35 years ago…you heard me…35 years ago. Can I retire yet? |
