You only have about 30 minutes left to donate to a cause in the name of a person who would hate it.

The intern I hired purely because she bothered the crap out of me until I gave her the interview? She was a rockstar.  She was just hired full time.

I just locked myself in the bathroom to pee and yelled at my 2-year-old through the door that “you don’t get to tell ladies what they can do with their bodies, mommy has to pee” and ugh. I’m tired

I hired two interns this week.

One of them I hired purely because she bothered the shit out of me until I gave her an interview.

Job Hunt Update Fafillion

HI.

I’m currently working a temp job that is actually pretty fun, but I have a major interview on Tuesday for a A+ job.

Please think all your good thoughts in my direction.
