Human Resources is the biggest road-block to getting a job JLab. The Computer Center didn't see my application for about a month after I applied (I didn't apply until the position was officially open to the public, but...). HR screens what they receive and sends it on to the appropriate department to do the dirty work. I called the HR contact I had every week during that month requesting an interview. She seemed a little agitated after a while... but I kept on anyway. Maybe she added a note to my file indicating that I had called four or five times requesting an interview. Maybe she had done all she could do and was waiting on someone else. Maybe she was slacking: I don't know. It's hard to say with these damn HR people.

Apply when something becomes available and call once a week thereafter. If you've already applied: start the calling part! Good luck.

Yeah: Philosophy in the Movies is alright. I'm taking it to satisfy a Writing Intensive requirement as well as finish up my minor. We watch the movies and discuss in class (I can't believe I pay mon ssssshhh: think of the degree), and work in groups of three to write movie reviews online (the class is completely paperless). The professor is outstanding. That's the core reason I took that class as opposed to another Philosophy class.

Are you taking anything you particularly like?

I like these pictures of you. They're very pretty. Thought you should know.
