job update
Aug. 18th, 2005 10:02 amInterview this afternoon. Slight case of nerves, as it's been a while. I should get a run in this morning.
Also submitted my resume to a company looking for an Applications Scientist. This means (in layspeak) that they're a bunch of propellerheads who need someone with interpersonal skills to talk to customers and collaborators. Hey, that could be me.
Also received an auto-generated message from the HR department of a Jinormous n' Jigantic pharmaceutical company, telling me my resume matched with a brand-new opening for a Scientist in Drug Discovery, and would I like to tell them about my primary research focus and by the way, what experience do I have in managing multiple projects at once? *gulp* Okay, might be completely out of my element but I applied anyway. *eep*
Just forwarded my electronic resume to a nice lady at one of the local small pharmas, who offered to pass it along to her peers. Cheers, nice lady!

this is stupid
Aug. 18th, 2005 05:59 pmIn my recent move, the power cord for my dekjet printer went AWOL. I figured I'd call HP to ask where I could get a replacement. Bad idea! The dork tech support person asked if I just wanted to buy a new printer, then tried to transfer me, at which point my call was lost.
Hey everyone, got another request:
On Saturday morning we're picking up two couches from Del Mar and an entertainment center in Rancho San Diego. (We got great deals on craigslist, so sue us) We have a truck, a piano mover thingy, but we're in need of extra hands to help lug things around. Anyone who's available to make the run either to Del Mar or RSD will be fed and given a beverage of their choice.
Kthx.
