I have an interview shortly, within my current job, that I'm pretty sure I have no chance in hell of getting due to lack of experience.  Should be fun.


Hmmmm....The fact they are interviewing you would lead me to believe they might be trying to get you into the position at less than it typically pays but a bit more than you do now.

Keep you head up and use these words

Team Play
Driven
Exciting Opportunity
Want to learn

Without reading your reply, I did in fact use "exciting opportunity" and "want to learn."   :lol

This is for an 'internship' position, so the pay would be the same, but the role would be different.  It would be really good experience so I want to try it.

Someone asked me how a taxpayer could only be a partial year resident for tax purposes in one state but a resident for tax purposes in California.

I actually think double-entry makes quite a bit of sense with the (admittedly large) caveat that the basic accounting equation is rather arbitrary in and of itself. Debits and credits are almost Newtonian, tbh.

This situation may be one of my struggles for the day, but the memo I'm writing about it is arousing me in the way that only being pedantic can arouse me. It's a lucky thing the other state isn't Rhode Island because having cause to use Rhode Island's full legal name would probably make me climax. :whew

On a tangential note, and not to sound like a donor to the Howard Jarvis Taxpayer Association, but you really can tell trial lawyers write / influence much of California law when you actually look at it. This other state isn't exactly Ground Zero: GOP and its relevant law was ambiguous enough that I had to also consult their state regulations to clarify some terminology. Meanwhile the relevant text in the Revenue and Taxation Code is almost a third of my memo. :dead

My legal argument was rejected for not making sense even though it follows the letter of the law. :shaq2

I even cited appellate court opinions. :goty

I could have really blown some minds by informing peeps that in 2012 this taxpayer was (for income tax purposes) technically a simultaneous resident of 2 different states. :goty2

Commiefornia is so brutal with resident status. Even if you leave you can't lose it until you can demonstrate that you're domiciling outside the state. :lol

Why do they do that? So they can tax your income on all sources instead of just California source income. :shh

Had to return Drive Club and a second copy of project Spark to two stores.

My body and I continue to work on our relationship with one another. Its been a real struggle lately for me.

I bought more Trap team figures for Skylanders today.

Came home to enjoy dinner and a movie which was interrupted by an asthma attack set on by cigarette smoke from outside.

I voted early and got my assigned polling place that I'll be helping out the public with.

I had a Skype interview with someone while they were on vacation in Hawaii. I got mad jealous as I've never been and my last vacation was in 2011.

I'm supposed to wake up at 4:30 but I stayed out late last night seeing Gone Girl.  So I woke up at 5:22 this morning.  My phone alarm has been sketchy for a while.  The other morning it would just vibrate but not set off the actual alarm.  So I guess I need a new one.  I had to be at the van pool at 5:50 so I can drive it and it takes be about 13 minutes to get there.  I made it at 5:45.

I grabbed my electric trimmer and razor on my way out the door so I could save time by shaving at work.  I forgot the guard dealy on the trimmer and almost trimmed my beard down to nothing.  But luckily I just took a sliver. 

Then I'm at my desk and I read the dumbest fucking email from someone on the other side of the world and in a fit of rage I spill my coffee all over my desk.

Fuck today.

struggle to read the best fantasy book of the last 20 years brehs.

I blazed through the first 2 books but I've somehow developed ADHD with the third.

Between Layton vs. Wright (which I still haven't finished), Danganronpa 2 (which I still haven't started), discovering Arrow on Netflix, and helping my mother paint her front porch and outdoor furniture, I just haven't had time for it.

Only 30% done according my Kindle.


Not even sure if I should mention I've gotten the urge to play around with the PSP emulator here lately as well

I have to leave my room unlocked tomorrow because the commune is switching to satellite. (Thanks for the short notice.) This means I have to secure a whole bunch of shit that I usually don't have to secure because my room is locked at whatever god awful hour I drag myself home. :maf
