So here's the deal -

As some of you know, I am a highly paid professional in the IT industry.
Ok, I know some of you are dying to know what I mean when I say "highly
paid". I hesitate to even say it, but in the interest of satisfying
everyone's curiosity, lets just say that in any given year over the past
five years I have made more than $100,000 but less than $250,000.

Not "great", but certainly not bad either....I would consider that
"highly paid".....maybe *you* don't, I don't know. I do know some of
you H8'ers are going to say that I am lying, blah, blah, blah. Ok.
Fine. Whatever. No, I won't post a copy of my W-2 form or any of that
silly stuff that some of you are going to demand.

I really don't care what you say or think. You see, there are bigger
issues at play here.

There are two companies in the IT industry trying to recruit me right
now. Lets just say I have a certain set of skills [insert your
requisite gay comment/joke here] that both of these companies consider
highly desirable. I am seriously considering employment with both of
these firms. I would increase my income dramatically at either one of
them. The major downside would be that I would not get to spend as much
time in my home office (that my current employer was gracious enough to
furnish for me) and therefore would have less time to post to usenet and
download pr0n during the day.

Here's my problem in a nutshell. I'm not sure what to wear to the
interviews. You are probably stunned and aghast to learn that someone
as worldly as The Magnificent Bastard is uncertain of how to dress for
an interview. Well, it's sort of complicated....

Company A "tricked" me into the first interview. A guy I know who works
there called me last week and asked me if I would meet him for lunch to
talk about some business. I agreed, thinking that he had some sort of
deal working where he wanted to get me involved for one reason or
another. So we do the usual business chit chat thing over lunch and
then he goes into a pitch as to why I should consider coming to work at
his company. It turns out he has recently been promoted and has this
new initiative he is heading up and he desperately wants me to come help
him get it going. Since I didn't know I was going to an "interview" I
dressed business casual -

Shirt - Brooks Brothers polo, pale blue
Pants - Claiborne For Men, charcoal gray
Shoes - Cable & Co. oxfords, black
Watch - Swiss Army Maverick Chrono

He was dressed business casual as well, so no biggy, right? Well, I am
going for a second interview on Friday. I am going to their local
offices to meet with a couple of people, one of whom is a Sr. VP level
type guy. So, I know it's an interview, I know a Sr. level exec will be
there to talk to me.....so do I put on a suit and tie? I'm 100%
positive that the dress code in their office is business casual. I'm
afraid if I go in wearing a suit and tie, I'll look way over-dressed.
But if I go business casual, will it give a bad impression? I don't
think it will. Should I maybe put on a sport coat with some nice pants
and skip the tie? What do you think?

Company B, oddly enough, also is working on an initiative similar to
Company A. Someone from company B called me today to ask if I would
accept an interview with them. I agreed, and am going to meet with them
on July 7th. I have never been to their local offices, but I know some
people who used to work there and the atmosphere is *very* laid back.
People come to work in shorts & t-shirts, sandals, etc. So I'm thinking
no way will I wear a suit to this interview. I'll go business casual,
no sport coat even. I mean, I'm expecting the guys I meet with to be
wearing either business casual attire or maybe even jeans, shorts, etc.
What do you think about this one?

What are the new "rules" for interview attire? Give me some feedback
here, people.

They don't like me there anymore. Someone from that froup 'net copped
me or at least they tried to.

I got this far, but I'll tell you what I think based on what I've read:

If you want to date this woman, just tell her you would insure her legs for
a million dollars if she were your girlfriend. Works every time. Doesn't
shave? Same thing. Tell her you'd like to braid her leg hair. She'll be
impressed. Also, tell her she's got more hair on her legs than you do.
Women these days get off on being considered "one of the guys," so any
compliment about her masculine attributes is bound to get you in bed.
Doesn't use deodorant? Ask if you can sniff her armpits. That will get her
hot. Every woman wants to know that her body odor is desirable to the
opposite sex. Here's a tip: when you sniff her hairy, sweaty armpits, tell
her you can't wait to see the rug between her legs. And put some cheese
down there for a while before you go down on her. Makes the experience that
much better. I personally prefer Brie or Schloss, but individual tastes
will vary, of course. If you've never done it before, I recommend starting
out with just sour milk that has begun to chunk up. The reason for this is
that a runny, soggy product will mix better with the natural juices that
have begun to cling to her pubes. Putting a few chopped nuts in the chunks
of milk will make the experience more pleasurable as well. While your down
there, put some a them nuts up in her ass and let them marinate. They'll
make a great snack after you're done sexing her up. I hope this helps.

Here's what the genius did -

Copied and pasted into an email the headers of someone who had replied
to one of my posts. Then she sent the abuse complaint to the news
service provider of the person who had replied.....in effect she 'net
copped someone for replying to one of my posts when she clearly intended
to 'net cop me. For some reason she also copied the company that hosts
my web site on the abuse complaint. She copied me on the email as well.

Oh well...
