Hell yeah, that's how we do it here. Except for today though, I've actually been busy today!
Where do you work and what do you do?

Hey Merk....
I don't know why "poop in it" said so forcefully makes me laugh.

Cant figure out how to quote people because I'm that awesome.
I work for Wright Brothers the Building Company..But I don't technically "work" for them. Haha. They just sign my paycheck. I work at 2 places. Eagle Mini storage and Victory Self Storage. Owned by the same people just depends on what day of the week it is. I just do normal..Storage stuff. Rent units, Office work, Do stuff for Wright Bros when they need it done..So on so forth.

Fascinating, do you have any good work stories you'd like to share?
In other news, a different department here at IU wants to interview me for a full-time User Support position. I am genuinely torn on whether or not I should interview. On one hand this would be a ticket out of the unemployment line but on the other that means I can no longer slack off all day. Money is nice, but three day weekends are sweet and my job right now is just so fucking low stress that it's hard to go back to the days of customers yelling at me and dealing with co-worker bullshit.

Would it be a salary position?

Yes:
http://www.indiana.edu/~uhrs/salary/pa-ranges.html#it
It is a PA2IT pay scale position. PA = Professional Staff, 2IT = 2nd tier pay-grade for IT professionals, I could make anywhere between 31k to 57k but more than likely it will be in the 37k area.
Apparently it is exactly what Adam does for UITS. God damn it, interviews always bring on a certain kid of nervousness and dread and I fucking hate it. Worst feeling in the world.

My initial phone interview is tomorrow at 1:30pm. Coincidentally my work schedule changed this week so I have a half day tomorrow, it's almost as if the Gods want me to get this job.

When they do introductions, you should say you prefer to be called Dr. "Merkin' Noobs" Merkler, Esquire.
Trust me on this, I'm a professional.

That sounds like a good opportunity Merk.
In other news I might be leaving potato land for Reno. Depends on if Kyle gets this job or not.
