Thanks to
twiggzzler for a lovely evening and wonderful dinner. I'll try not to leave so much in the way of cupcake crumbs everywhere next time.

Yeah, right, as if I'm even on nodding acquaintance with romanticism.

01:54 pm - This is Why European Education is Going to Shit
- lisa_whyte2002: Hi
- Squid: 'Allo.
- lisa_whyte2002: How are you
- Squid: I'm decent enough. Its early in the day to be awake, but I'm here.
- lisa_whyte2002: Sorry to bother you sir, i was wondering if you or you know someone who knows anything about computer science project managment
- Squid: Oh, no disturbance at all. And I've done a bit in the field myself, but its not like Project Managers aren't just falling out of the trees.
- lisa_whyte2002: Sorry,? basiclly im stuck on a project managment assignment and its way over due and i can't do much and i was looking for some major help.outsourcing it because i so dont wanna fail my teaching degree just because of this
- Squid: Now that's a much harder sell, frankly. I wasn't aware University was allowing overseas outsourcing like the bulk of US companies these days.
- lisa_whyte2002: he he, well i was figuering what it doesnt know isnt going ot cripple it unlike the us companies
- Squid: Mmmm, that might be an arguable point. You are, after all, going for a degree in education, not in business management -- so you'd think that end would justify actually knowing the field, n'est pas?
- lisa_whyte2002: Well basiclly im hoping that as im going to teach maths and Pe and thats my goal this is well just a side step?
- Squid: You'd be surprised how much like herding cats or project management planning daily work for a dozen or more psychotic barely-upright humanoid offspring can be.
- lisa_whyte2002: he he
- lisa_whyte2002: So basiccly i guess im wondering if you/you know someone who might help me out from a very tough spot i don't ask litely
- Squid: I don't think so, unfortunately. My horde might be unprincipled, cruel, twisted, morally reprehensible bastards and bastardesses, but we're really hard-asses when it comes to college students doing their own homework. Besides, how hard can it be? Project Managemnent is about throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks.
- lisa_whyte2002: Okay well thanks for your time
- Squid: My pleasure.
Now, I'm male ... I'll do damn near anything for a cute chick that bats her lashes just so, even if I'm not looking to make time with her. But, c'mon, doing someone's Project Management work, like one of those wretched offshore outsourcing scabs from India? I should have taken it on, made a hash of it, gave it back and smirked as I said, "That's what happens when you outsource overseas, you dumb bitch. Now get out of education and into prostitution, where you belong. And bring me a godamned beer."
Ever wake up annoyed?

The Crow
You are protected by the spirit of the Crow, a
gregarious, raucous parasite that feeds off the
destruction and pain of those around you. You
will take advantage of anyone who crosses your
path. Your quote: "See with your heart and
you'll know the answer. Give unconditionally
and you'll receive abundantly. Work like you
don't need the money. Love like you've never
been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching"

What is Your Native American Totem?

Well, that's vote #2 ...

Your soul is bound to the Fourth Totem, Solomon:
The Owl.
Solomon appears as an azure feathered owl. He
embodies wisdom, judgment, reason, and
stability. He is associated with the color
azure, the season of autumn, and the element of
water. His downfall is farsightedness.
You are most compatible with Ravens and Monkeys.

And the dissenting vote, though for reasons I can't adequately discover. Go fig.
