"RISE AND SHINE!"?

September 5th, 2006 at 10:05 pm | Daylog

My Tuesday might not be as awesome other persons, but it’s still been pretty good.

First to report: I have a job interview! Set it up today for Friday at 9 am. It’s with a shipping company called Transcorp, located in Huber Heights, for a management position. I am very excited, yet slightly annoyed because I can find little information about them on google. I have their address, so at least I know where I’m going Friday, but I don’t know what kind of goods they ship, how big they are exactly, and all sorts of other things a web site would be handy for. So I’m going to call them tomorrow to find out exactly how their name is spelled, if they have a web site, and, if not, some basic information about them. I don’t want to go into the interview Helen Keller-like. That would be most vexing.

Additionally, work on Thirty Well Spent progresses, and does so at rate that could almost be described as “Yeti-like.” How fast does a Yeti move? Fuck if I know. What I do know is that I’m nearly done with the new first chapter, which incorporates all the elements from the beta version I liked, but fits in with the overall story better. I’s is excited, for realzy.

I’ll update on both fronts when I have more news.

    Transcorp? I think all they do is ship dead fetuses and drugs, could pay well though.

    Ooh, good luck at your interview. It’s good that you have the address; I didnt have the Journal’s when I went in and I couldn’t find the right one because there are about 40 different addresses listed for Cox Ohio. I figured it out about an hour beforehand. Kick some ass at your interview!

    Best of luck at your interview man! Keep us updated (though, i’m positive you will.)

    I hope you get the job, but only so you can move to Huber and we can be Huber Heights buddies! I can see it now…a five-mile-long stretch of extension cord coming from my house to yours, mysteriously powering your television and vibrator…ing bed. Yes. Your vibratoring bed. Bye.

    Good luck at the interview.

    I was going to say something witty,but Nathan distracted me with the vibratoring bed comment. At my advanced age my memory can’t withstand distracting forces, so you’ll have to settle for something mundane like “good luck on the interview.”

    What a let down.

    Ah, my vibratoring bed . . . so relaxing, yet so exhilerating.

    Thanks for the good wishes, everyone. I’ll try not to fuck up.

    And yes, though it pains me to admit it like a needle to the eye . . . Lindsey is indeed correct; it’s spelled “TransCorr.” Just like how she wrote it down.

    Maybe they just didn’t know that it would be pronounced exactly the same had it been spelled correctly.

    I would imagine you’d be less inclined to apply there if it was indeed pronounced “Trans-corpse”.
