Hired! Part 2: On Hold!

DAMMIT!!

I went in to my new employer today to fill out all the paperwork (and boy, there was a lot!).
We (me and the other 12 new guys) got a tour of the office, were shown the timeclock and how it works
(it's a hand reader! Holy biometrics, Batman!), and got our parking validated.
I drove homeward and stopped at Del Taco for my one meal of the day.
While there, I got a phone call from work.
The project I was slated to be put on was placed on hold.
I'm not starting tomorrow.
I'm on hold until they call me and tell me the project is back on track.

In the immortal words of Darkman, "YOU HAVE GOT TO BE SHITTING ME!"

So now, I wait until I get a call. I was told it wouldn't be more than a week.
I will continue job-hunting.
The cool place I interviewed at a couple of weeks ago, which is called Genex by the way, has still
not gotten back to me with a "yay" or "nay". I e-mailed the guy yesterday, and no reply so far.

"Faith manages."

A few minutes ago, gizmoelf came by to visit for a bit.
He went to Anime Expo over the weekend and apparently picked up a little something for me.
"And it looks a little something like this. HIT IT!"



It's a plushie Tachikoma from "Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig"!
It's almost a foot across! It's currently sprawled on the mixing board in the living room.
PlushiTachi! :D
Thanks Gizmo for raising my spirits!
