New Job
I got the Kinesiology job! I'm starting in two weeks.
On my third interview today, they showed me four labs. One is being used for a blood-flow study for the European Space Agency and NASA! My involvement with that lab is likely very low. But still, very cool. Another lab has servo-controlled back-joints, to test joint stress through regular, repeated motion. It's likely I'll be working on that.
What a load off my mind. The timing was... weird, but hey, I'll take it.
This will take some time to sink in, I think.

Congratulations and good fortune. I know Dave and his crew will miss you.

I guess this is why auto-deposit is a good thing. Easier to verify.
Oh, gods. I probably need to re-apply for that. Hm.
I'll still require they give me paper pay-stubs though.

Wow, HR hardly jerked you around at all.
The hr person was even off-campus at a conference when she called me. :)

That's got to be the first time I've been confused for a rockstar. Gotta get those glasses cleaned, methinks.
Hopefully, about the unstability.

Now, if it were me, I would be planning somewhere nice to go out to eat to spend some of that first paycheck. (Because, ultimately, for me, it all gets back to food.... ;-)
It sounds like an interesting job!

...We planned to go to a new hispanic hole-in-the-wall, but they were playing loud mariachi music so we went to our favourite sushi restaurant.
thanks!

Despite its lateness, I'm adding this anyway because you seem to be obsessively thanking everybody and it amuses me to make you work.

Thanks.

Pbtbtbtbt!
My mom taught me to be polite. ;)
Besides, it's not late, it's early.
Though, I figure the number of people who will come along later and read this is not so high.

Were you travelling, or just on a computer-sabbatical? :)

Mostly I was just sucked into political threads in another website, which ended up with not only loads of people posting loads of stuff, but I eventually posted to the threads too. While I'm sometimes tempted to "spread the joy" and post my rant(s) (and trust me, 36KB messages are usually rants) here, I have so far resisted, which is probably for the best. Today I'm only 150 posts behind on LJ. I'll catch up in a day or so. ;-)
