This is SO on my Netflix Queue!
Here’s a friendly hint –
If you live outside the delivery area, and beg for a delivery — and promise to tip really really really good if we deliver to you just this one time oh please oh please I’ll take care of the driver — please understand that a dollar in pennies does not under any circumstances qualify as a “really really really good” tip … anyway, that’s why there’s a big warning on your information screen now: “OUT OF AREA DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES DELIVER TO THIS ASSHAT.”
Yeah, I’m talkin’ to you, Corbett.
Pre-Postal Exam Post
My exam for the Post Office is tomorrow. Morning. At eight.
In Glen Burnie.
I bought a pair of nice khakis to wear, and started a load of laundry about an hour ago with the intention of washing those pants, a white t-shirt, and a black polo shirt to wear to the exam.
I put the black polo and the white t-shirt in the laundry. I, about thirty seconds ago, realized that the khakis are still in the bag. Son of a … In addition, after putting the laundry in the washer, I let it sit for an hour before remembering to stick it in the dryer. Which means I can either leave it there until I get home from work or be late to work.
(I’ll leave it).
In any case, I need to set my alarm for six and be in bed no later than midnight. I’d like to get down there earlier, particularly as opposed to getting down there late, right?
The exam itself lasts three and a half hours, so I should be home around noonish tomorrow. The information packet says it takes three weeks for exam scores to be processed, and the hiring procedure is based on the exam score.
I’m nervous, but I’m sure I’ll be wanting to throw up tomorrow on my way to Glen Burnie. I also bought a box of #2 pencils and a sharpener for the exam – I’m supposed to bring the pencils, and I want to make sure I’ve got a sharpener ‘cuz somehow I don’t think they will.
I have another exam, on the 22nd, with the Bel Air regional office. That exam is at a wonderful eleven am.
And I’m glad that one is in Bel Air — I’m wondering WTF is up with always having to drive down to Glen Burnie for my various interviews & related meetings …
