My new job is going to RULE! (pumps fist in air)

[Robb]

:D

OK, aside from the fact that it's with the neat-o teeny local newspaper, staff of like seven all of whom I've met and are really amazingly cool progressive folks (we'll avoid discussion of the adorably perky intern for the moment), both offices are crammed with a bunch of networked high-end Macs! :bounce: With big monitors! :bounce:

When I accepted the job I told the new boss that I decided not to bargain for more money, thinking instead to astound him with the quality of my work and thus shame him into pay raises at absurdly short intervals... and he laughed! In the good way, that says I'm among fellow smartasses. :evilgrin:

Now all I need is a nickname, like "Jimmy". :P

[Rowdyboy]

1. "Dingy" won't do?

Ya gotta be Jimmy Olsen, huh!

[Robb]

2. Maybe "Dinghy"

...although it's a little salty for up here at altitude. :shrug:

[Rowdyboy]

4. Call it an "inside" joke

Make up a fabulously inventive story about you and a small boat and go with Dinghy!

[Deja Q]

3. You do realize that "(pumps fist in air)" could lead to some interesting

copycatting?

5. Just don't let them call you "Jimmy Robb"

[Robb]

6. Jimmy Robb John Bubba John Jimmy

...or "Gwendolyn". :silly:
