21 degrees Celsius yesterday!

Being a proper hipster by laying in the grass, under a large oak tree; sunglasses and reading book included.

It's taken me a few days, but I'm finally happy with the application I've done for one of my local colleges. Very Happy

Here's to hoping they accept me for interview...

Watch the vent thread for my incoming rage and depression when I get rejected.

You should write a rejection letter rejecting their rejection, should they reject you.

That's a fantastic idea. To be honest, the place I've applied to is pretty shit but it's close. They won't see a rejection letter coming! *triumphant pose*

Here's something along the lines of what I had in mind:

Herbert A. Millington
Chair - Search Committee
412A Clarkson Hall, Whitson University
College Hill, MA 34109

Dear Professor Millington,

Thank you for your letter of March 16. After careful consideration, I
regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me
an assistant professor position in your department.

This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually
large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field
of candidates, it is impossible for me to accept all refusals.

Despite Whitson's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in
rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at
this time. Therefore, I will assume the position of assistant professor
in your department this August. I look forward to seeing you then.

Best of luck in rejecting future applicants.

Sincerely,
Chris L. Jensen

Well, tomorrow the girlfriend lands in Heathrow for two weeks in England with me. And on the monday we're headed to Leeds to spend a few days with a douche and her husband.

The douche being Annie/Vale.

It's a wonder she lets me into her house really.

by **Valerias** Sat Mar 24, 2012 8:48 pm

I'm considering rescinding my invitation.

Or well, not really. I may just be considering interesting ways to poison you :')

Did the interview ask for them?

by **Shaelyssa** Sat Mar 24, 2012 10:41 pm

No I randomly told the interviewer "YOU'RE FAT, here's what you need to do you little piglet"
