What a time, what a time. Yet another step on the way past my youth.
I must say, there are assholes in the world, but I know at least one I can kind of respect - if only because I can't totally get a handle on his style. I got dinner and a balloon, I can't complain. ^_^
Coincidentally, perhaps, I am fated to have an interview with the same company my dad spent about 20 years working for - a massively multinational engineering corporation. And as they are flying me down the coast for this screening; I must say I'm flattered (as I should be), but this is barely the first of likely many steps. GOOD VIBES, people. GOOD VIBES. What an awesome birthday present that would be, yes? Did I mention they're multinational?
CAPS LOCK commands you.
Also marking today is what may be the first time that I am truly going strong for what I believe is right. It's ... interesting, to say the least, and as much as it kills me to say so, I can't comment for certain on the outcome. Sticking to the adage "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is something that governing bodies in general (and everyone in them in particular) can learn from.
