such wonderful news to wake up to

but fuck bill english for saying civil unions should be "enough"

black people already get to go to school, that should be ENOUGH, why do we need to end segregation??

smoove operator, Thursday, 18 April 2013 02:23 (eleven years ago) link

yes, very very wonderful!!!

lxy, Friday, 19 April 2013 03:14 (eleven years ago) link

I am missing Seattle again :(

tehresa, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 03:49 (ten years ago) link

time to visit!

lxy, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 04:35 (ten years ago) link

or move here!!

lxy, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 04:36 (ten years ago) link

find me awesome job?

tehresa, Tuesday, 7 May 2013 15:40 (ten years ago) link

one month passes...

I found a job to apply for! any of you Seattlites heard of an org called $hunp1k3?

tehresa, Friday, 28 June 2013 22:55 (ten years ago) link

no but that is awesome!

jergins, Wednesday, 10 July 2013 06:37 (ten years ago) link

how did i miss this! very exciting, t!! i'm not familiar with the org but it seems perfect for you!

lxy, Wednesday, 10 July 2013 22:24 (ten years ago) link

I have been procrastinating with my application and i don't know why :(

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 01:21 (ten years ago) link

Maybe because i am scared of another tiny org

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 01:22 (ten years ago) link

they've been around for quite a while, though, and it looks like the client base is pretty large and varied. and it seems like an ideal next step in your career, a good fit plus a place you can really apply your expertise to influence the success/growth of the org.

i love how the name represents the goals/values of the org too. really neat!

DO IT NOW!!!

lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 02:21 (ten years ago) link

maybe in 5 years they'll need a parttime writer. then i can retire from uw (!!!) and work less at a better place.

so you go ahead and start there, make your way up to director, and hire me! a perfect plan!

and of course you can feel sunny all the time, which is the best reason of all!

lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 02:25 (ten years ago) link

hire me 1st

mookieproof, Thursday, 11 July 2013 02:34 (ten years ago) link

lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 02:57 (ten years ago) link

Hah. I know I should apply but now I will not get preference bc I didn't submit by the 6th. I suck :(

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:06 (ten years ago) link

lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:12 (ten years ago) link

Maybe? :)

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:12 (ten years ago) link

lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:13 (ten years ago) link

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:13 (ten years ago) link

lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:14 (ten years ago) link

I haven't updated my résumé in two years? Oops,

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:19 (ten years ago) link

ah shit i hate when i do that

lxy, Thursday, 11 July 2013 03:31 (ten years ago) link

can i just say:

ytth has been trying to hire someone at his work and about 99.9% of applicants are fucking idiots - they don't read the job listing properly, they send the most generic cover letters, and they say the most generic bullshit during interviews.

tza, you are anything but generic or boring, so you should feel confident about applying for a cool new job!!!! everyone else applying sucks!!!

smoove operator, Thursday, 11 July 2013 05:41 (ten years ago) link

Aw. Does ytth want to give me a job?

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 21:14 (ten years ago) link

ps i secretly want to become a dog trainer because i am tired of office bs. Also I need to learn all this training stuff anyway and my dog trainer charges mad $$$. And doggies are better than people...though i guess there is a lot of people training in dog training.

tehresa, Thursday, 11 July 2013 21:17 (ten years ago) link

it's an entry-level position (kind of admin assistant thing, i think?), but his company is basically the best work environment a person could imagine.

smoove operator, Friday, 12 July 2013 06:22 (ten years ago) link

how does anyone afford to live in sf?

tehresa, Friday, 12 July 2013 18:44 (ten years ago) link

a. they work for some start-up that has more venture capital than they know what to with

b. they rent a walk-in closet (literally) for $2000 a month

OR you can work in sf and live in our pretty little city and pay $1200 p/m for a nice 2bd w/garage and yard (although we discovered recently we are paying waaaaaaaaaaaaay under market value) and commute 45mins each way.

smoove operator, Friday, 12 July 2013 19:44 (ten years ago) link

t did you apply for that job? i don't want you to be regretful.
