The informal interview/dinner has been scheduled for next week. It will be here. Jesus. I need to re-learn what fork to use when. I'm just an unfrozen caveman, like Oracle CEO Larry Ellison.*




* They do that thing where they swap "effect" for "affect." Drives me crazy, just like "then" for "than," or apostrophe's in plural's.

Thanks! I always forget if it's in-to-out or out-to-in.

You forgot to pound the ground.

Just take a couple of empty petrol cans with you and if it gets dicey, bang them together while making short rushes at your dining companions. Always stop a few feet short and see if they yield.

In an dining establishment the above is less offensive than flinging your own waste.

There are far too many forks on those tables for a place with "grill" in its name.

One of my co-workers said the food there is uber-yummy! She also thought that there wasn't much parking, so maybe you should allocate time for finding parking (maybe call and ask the restaurant about this).

Good luck!

Do they also use "impact" and "leverage" as verbs? That really pisses me off.

Ditto on the fork comment. Outside in. And I doubt there'll be anything weird like a fish fork or mango fork or somesuch silliness that could impact your attempt to leverage yourself as a knowledgeable person.
