FlyerTalk Forums - The Penalty Box

Test update: epic win.

How's this for strange: I was really truly sweating the math portion and ended up scoring higher in math than in reading. :eek:

Two sections get instant results, and I cleared passing by roughly 10 points in both; the essay section needs a few weeks for grading, but I'm most confident in my writing skill over reading or math.

fantabulous! you rock!

From the article: "Body scanning technology needs to be stepped up and widely deployed. Terrorists carry bombs on their bodies, not their bags."

What??? You mean they don't shove a large bundle of TNT, a quart-sized ziplock packed full with individual 3.1 oz bottles of lighter fluid, and a book of matches into their rollaboard? Geez! Who knew??? Those terrorists certainly are a crafty bunch! :rolleyes:

Not only is it :( it is still :rolleyes:. The only good thing is that they are still paying me for my slackitude - I guess I shouldn't complain too much about that.

The plan was to have resigned by now - I didn't anticipate my house taking so long to rent or sell - listed at a really bad time of year - the Mr. and I don't want two mortgages with one income, so I'm sticking it out for a bit longer.

It's another month or two, let's hope, and hopefully the job search can produce a decent alternative.
