Interview! I'm telling you, ask for something in this thread, and I've always gotten it within a 24 hour period (or at least that's what I'm going to tell myself).

michigan. yay! 🙂 !!! 😀
Awesome! congrats! I'm real jealous. They didn't like me for MSTP last year.

I like to put it in a beaker full of water and leave it on unsuspecting lab members desks when they're gone. They're usually freaked out when they come back to their desk.

If you're just in your suit skirt that could be kind of hot... 😉

That's craziness! I'm not to sure how I feel about that just yet, but I am leaning towards treating her like a woman and letting her compete in the future. The only issue I can see is the excessive amounts of testosterone. She would have to be tightly regulated though, to ensure her levels of T aren't fluctuating that much, otherwise that could be indicative of steroid use.
 
what about her testesterone levels compared to the other female competitors


She's still genetically a female, but the male gonads are the issue. That's the one part I haven't decided on yet. I want to say she should be able to race, but I'm not really sure I think that is fair to the other competitors. The thing that sucks is that she's not strong enough to compete with the men, so she's kind of left in limbo. Although, it's not fair that she can walk away with all the medals in the female class either. Tough call. I'm glad I don't need to make the decision.

Dude, do you ever do anything other than surf the internet?
 
I'm starting to get nervous that I've heard nothing. I don't have AMAZING stats (3.76/11-11-10P) but they are fairly good. Hopefully all these early interviews are for the amazing stats-ers and I will have my turn soon!
 
hahaha no. i stopped doing **** at work

Ha ha. I'm with you. I'm spending my work time looking for a new job and applying to medical school... Not to mention my SDN time.

You just got your new MCAT. Give it a little time. You'll get some love. 😉
 
i'm getting worried about missing work in october. got a call back from the job i interviewed with earlier this week - asking when I was available, and telling me that they are interested but also are looking at other people (not sure how promising that is..).

but in any case, i have interviews oct 8-11 and 28-30, and a conference from the 17th-21st. that's missing at least 7 days of work over the month. ew.
 
On a roll. 👍

How many have you been to, so far? 2?

Yep.

What P said. You gotta give them time. You'll get them soon.

That still sounds promising. Did they discuss salary or were they just keeping you up to date? I think he was just feeling you out to see what your interest level is for the position, otherwise he would have just said you didn't get the job.

You only need 1 (and you'll spend a lot less money that way, too).

I don't think it was a bad thing, it was just weird. They even had someone from HR call me instead of calling themselves, and she asked how soon I could start (i.e. with the current boss, etc), even though I had discussed that at the actual interview. Hopefully they're just interviewing the people they already had scheduled and pick me :xf::xf:

If they are already having HR call you I'm guessing you're set. I bet if you asked your references they would say that they already received a call from the position. They don't usually do that kind of follow-up unless they are planning on making you an offer. 😉
 
This is hilarious. An excerpt from the website, The Customer is NOT Always Right.

Aspirin(g) To Be A Better Doctor

Veterinarian | United Kingdom
(My husband works for the out of hours service and drives/assists the doctors with their house calls. I’m a veterinary nurse and as we work in the same area we often see the same people. At 2 am, the phone rings.)
Me: “Uh, hello?”
Husband: “Hi, my love. It’s just me. The doctor has a question for you about some meds. Do you mind talking to him?”
Me: “No problem, put him on.”
Doctor: “Hi, we’re at a patient’s house now. She’s worried because she accidentally took her cat’s medication. The thing is, she’s decanted the tablets into a tub and has lost the label. Can you tell me what they are?”
Me: “Well, give me a description of the tablets, I’ll see if I can recognise the med code.”
Doctor: “The pills are round, white and have A-S-P-I-R-I-N stamped on them.”
Me: “Seriously? Are you kidding me?”
(This clearly sets the doctor off, as he goes off on the following tirade🙂
Doctor: “No! You said you would help! What’s your problem, for f*** sake! I have a patient that may be poisoned and you’re being a b****! It’s my JOB on the line here, do you understand that? MY JOB, I don’t know why I listened to that b**** driver what would you know anyway you are just some idiot nurse for f***ing animals nobody would give a s**t what you say you ignorant cow!”
Me: “It’s an aspirin…spelled A-S-P-I-R-I-N.”
Doctor: *prolonged silence* “I guess I should say sorry now, right?”
