  5. On the other hand, some of the fucked up exits which I've been a part of may refute the theory of INTELLIGENT Falling. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------
  6. http://www.theonion.com/articles/evangelical-scientists-refute-gravity-with-new-int,1778/ See, as skydivers we are actually doing God's work. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------
  7. Thanks for all the advice! Yes, I'm still applying for other positions. I just had the interview with Company B and it went very well, but the guy said they still need to do interviews with a few other candidates, so it will be another couple weeks before they decide. But I got the feeling I made a very good impression with them. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------

  10. My first choice is the Research Biologist at Company A. Some work with mice, some DNA & RNA analysis. The company is doing some cutting edge stuff. The second choice is Company B, which would be clinical diagnostic work. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------
  11. Company A is where I'd really like to work. I just had the initial phone interview screen with HR, and I think that went well. But I didn't talk to an actual hiring manager, which would happen when they call me in for an in-person interview. Company B has some things going for it, but it would be more routine work in a less exciting area. Also, the commute would be 90 minutes or more (as opposed to 25 minutes for company A). But I really need to get a job soon. If I went with Company B, it would be for an 8 month contract. So maybe I could live with that for 8 months.

  12. So I am looking for a job in biotech and have had initial telephone interviews with two companies. Company A is where I really want to work, company B is a distant second for a number of reasons, but I'd still work there. Problem is, company B is moving faster in its hiring decisions than company A. Company B has already scheduled an in-person interview for me for Wednesday. I would really like Company A to get on the ball here and invite me in for an interview, because I would rather work there. But I really need a job soon. Is there any way to politely ask Company A to hurry up & make a decision? Company B is moving along and might ask me for a decision before Company A gets moving and gives me an interview.

  15. In pro-football,it's not whether your team wins or loses, it's the beer you drink when you're watching the game. If your team wins the Superbowl, but you were drinking lite beer the whole time, you still lose. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------
  16. Pissed because the NFLapp on my Droid won't show the ravens /pats game. Oh well, I guess that means I HAVE to go to the local Irish bar with the half price Guinness special! I have no choice, really. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------

  19. You didn't ask if he should get a pass. You asked if people thought he would change after he graduates. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------

  21. For the last 10 months I have been looking for a job, so the fifth pocket contains a flash drive with my CV, publications, references, applications and cover letters, list of companies etc. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------

  24. My cable is out. Does anyone know how I can watch the Patriots/Broncos game online on my Droid? I tried Wiziwig, but it isn't working for me. Speed Racer --------------------------------------------------
