Wowza, G! Life is being good to you right now! Congrats again! And please, your prompts are stressful enough.

Gary, glad things are going well although busy! Things keeping you occupied is good for our blood pressure! Smile.

Weekend has been good. Just the usual stuff. Today I went down to my office to clean things out. 21 years of work consolodated into 3 boxes. Very strange but it felt good to get that part of my departure done. I went when no one was there as it was just easier to do it without people who really don't like me making nice. Haha.

So now it's relaxing, reading entries and waiting to go to yoga class!

Hope all are well!

We always put new hires through a grueling full day interview process where they meet with 6-8 staff in half hour increments, then give us a lunchtime presentation. I always have fun trying to think up new interview questions! Glad to know you are still alive, though! There are some great entries up and running already!

OMG that interview process sounds like it would be horrifying to me. XD (I am grateful for zoom interviews these days!)

Oh, they used to be in person, now they are virtual, but it is still the same - presentation included! I think virtual makes it a little easier on the candidates since they could probably be pantsless and we'd never know!

Yeah, even virtually that seems like a lot for one day. I mean, I appreciate being able to meet multiple people I'd be potentially working with to get a sense for whether or not I'd fit in with the team, but in general the typical job interview process is not the best way to get to know if neurodivergent candidates like me are going to be able to do the work well.

I may have worn lounge pants to a zoom interview, but I can't imagine wearing no pants would make me more comfortable in an interview! I'd be too worried about accidentally standing up and revealing too much! ;)

I had just been thinking, "Hey, when was the last green room posted?" But it's okay, I have had plenty to do. I'm glad for the holiday today, though the downside of it is I have to put more work hours in on the remaining 4 days this week in order to get my full part-time hours pay.

The weekend is still active till Tuesday AM for me. Lots of babysitting and researching for new affordable assisted housing for the Mothership. Her current place is shutting the doors in 90 days.
