Had a job interview today. It went well. An interesting place, too. Although, I have to say I'm not wild about my chances. I was greeted by the hiring manager, who told me, "We're looking for an intermediate position, and your resume says 'senior'."

D'oh.

rand()m quote

Society is indeed a contract... [the state] is a partnership in all science; a partnership in all art; a partnership in every virtue, and in all perfection. As the ends of such a partnership cannot be obtained in many generations, it becomes a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born.

—Edmund Burke
