      I don't think you can legally smoke at home if you work at home.

      I've notified the authorities.

        • I'm thinking about looking for a new job.

          PNG is starting to grind me down.

          I don't know why he saved my life. Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody's life, my life. All he'd wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? All I could do was sit there and watch him die.

          • Do they have any jobs in PNG?

            • For expats - lots.

              But I would not take another role there.

                • I did make some "local clour/custom" post I will grant you that.

                  And if you can go to work and accept that feck all you will do will make any difference and just accept the money - then it isn't so bad.

                  • I have two interviews today, and I'm waiting on an offer from another company for a totally sweet job.

                    • Good luck

                      Started to look for something new also. 70+ hour weeks with a little girl to take care of are a bit mucho...

                        • It's probably yours then, it doesn't take a week to say "No." They are most likely waiting for HR to sign off on your huge offer, and knowing HR they probably only work on Thursdays.

                          So, you should have fun with the other interviews and just totally blow them.

                            • Yeah, that would be my assumption.

                              • Last week I was the only candidate in the running, she said. This week, they are narrowing their options. One of my interviews didn't come off. The person who was supposed to call me got sucked into a meeting. Try again tomorrow.

                                The totally sweet job is doing 508 accessibility work. I know that stuff like the back of my hand and it's something about which I'm very passionate.
