Hey, **Aes** , go look at he views/posts ratio for your Pitting of me and see if you notice anything.

[spoiler]it’s nearly double the normal/average 10:1 ratio

of course, the Pit itself skews ratios, but still…[/spoiler]

Nothing to do with the matter at hand (typically), but I’m all excited, so I had to share:

I’m quitting the Evil Job From Hell! Woohoo! Not that I have any other prospects at the moment. But I simply can no longer abide this hellhole. I’m giving two full months’ notice, so I figure that’ll give me time to look for work (my requirements: anything but this!), as well as giving my boss time to find someone new.  
I haven’t told her I’m quitting, yet. I’m kinda scared. She’s not mean or anything, but she’s big on guilt trips, and I feel guilty enough already. Ugh.  
But I’m quitting! Yay!

P.S: You guys are the first to know. 🙂 I figure I’ll tell my family sometime around… September…

Congratulations to “Our” Kn\*ckers!!!  
🙂  
Congrats, that is, on getting out of a real pit. I had a feeling you weren’t gonna hang around there for very much longer.

Good luck with the job search and I’m sure you will turn up something better soon.

When job search, bring pants.

Or not. Depending on what sort of job she’s interviewing, a lack of pants might increase her odds of getting the position.

Either way… good luck. I’ve been needing a new job forever but I’m too scared to look, myself. I hope you fare better than I have.

Let me add my voice to those wishing luck to you. I think that most of us that have had multiple jobs over the years remember at least one job from hell. You can use us as a reference, if you’d like. 😉

Go get 'em, Kn(kick some job-hunting butt, with or without pants)ckers.

Thanks a lot, fellas (gender aside, you’re a fella, too, **viva** 😉 ). You’re the bestest Trek Dopers a girl could ask for, and I appreciate the moral support. Here’s hoping all goes well!

Kn(trying REALLY hard to remember to wear pants when I give notice, next week. I have a feeling the boss won’t serve as a reference if I quit in my knickers\*)ckers

\*heh, that was fun  
P.S.: Good luck with your own job search, **Aes**. I hope you find something wonderful!

Not likely in this town. Thanks for the support though.

And before anyone asks, I’m up at this ungodly hour so I can get car insurance. I’m just waiting for my dad to call so I can go with him.

Another bill… ugh. I might have a whole five dollars left to spend on whatever I want each month after this. I want to be a kid again. :mad:
