I have decided that my temporary duties include reading all incoming resumes and cover letters for this front desk position. Unfortunately, I did not decide that until today, which meant I only got to read two. Forturnately, the two were entertaining. Well, the first one was boring and I'm pretty sure the second one was an application along the lines of "see how you should actually hire me as a graphic designer rather than a receptionist?" due to its packaging.
Additionally, I have completed all actual tasks and have frittered as much time as I can stomach on the interweb. I forgot to bring reading material because I was too busy focusing on consuming cold medicine this morning. The only reading options on this desk include books I've already read and magazines with Dubya on the cover (and I cannot stomach that after the radio hits I took from the Republican convention). The only thing left for me is to open up the laptop and work on theatre tasks.
Luckily, this is the sort of place where I can bring my own computer and be questioned only by the IT guy. And all he wants to know is "how fast is it?"
Posted by Ida at September 1, 2004 11:32 AMI have found someone else who knows about rabbit rabbit! It has been a tradition in our family for a long time and I'm curious as to how you learned about it - same way? My parents came from the New York area so I wonder if it's a Northeastern thing.

Satisfying couple of words, though.
