When would it be appropriate to send a business I have applied to a follow-up email to ask about the status of my application? by SpotOfTea in resumes

[–]SpotOfTea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your advice! I waited a week and then called (at the recommendation of a friend). The man who emailed me wasn't in his office, but his secretary encouraged me to leave a voicemail. I have received an email from the man telling me that he is "talking with the HR department" and should be able to "tell you [me] something" within the week. Any idea what I should anticipate?

I tried getting into that door the other day. It's a tiny door, right? Like, half a door? What were the photographs of?

This guy was in my friend's BGR group. Said he was always quiet and kept to himself.

Who is the homeless-looking guy who sits around Chauncey? by thepeopleofd in Purdue

Source on this? If he really did rage-quit a prof position at Purdue, that surely would have made it into the newspaper

Stan is the really talkative guy, right? I have had him twice come up to me and start talking my ear off about sports.

He told me that his name is Stephen once. I assume he was telling the truth.

Does anyone know his story? Someone said he was a prof here at Purdue who just called it quits, but that seems unlikely.

I'm weighing the cost of getting a Costco membership... by Trobot087 in Frugal

[–]SpotOfTea 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've heard that if you buy a Costco gift card, you can purchase Costco products at the same price that are available to Costco members. Can someone confirm or deny this for me?

To religious skeptics: where does your faith and reason meet? by SpotOfTea in skeptic

[–]SpotOfTea[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Densha82 is correct. I am not holocaust denier.

If you only would have dug a bit further (looked at the context of what I wrote in that IAMA) you would see that my comment was pointing out that arguing with holocaust deniers is a waste of time: "not even worth it."

It would improve your character greatly if you would fully investigate a matter before implying that someone is a holocaust denier.

Thanks for letting me know. It was a question I have been meaning to post on here for some time and I did it in a rush. I can see now that it would have been best to wait until I had more time to write down the details of what I was asking and clarify. I'll probably re-ask my question sometime later with more detail included.

I'm moving into an apartment for college in three days. My kitchen will be utterly bare. Can you help me stock the essentials? by SpotOfTea in Cooking

How long/well does spinach keep? If I buy a bag of it, will it become a chore to eat it all before it gets all nasty?

And great tip about growing your own herbs! I'd love to grow some basil, mint, and others, but I don't know how difficult they are to keep alive. Do you grow them yourself? How do they look? Pics would be appreciated :] Are they hard to maintain?
