Okay let me re-phrase.
Once you are staying in the same place on a regular basis the odds of hooking up in a natural manner will greatly increase.


Putting "Find GF" on a check list of "things to do" kind of makes me

his task for today was to show me a schedule for the week (that's how I can judge whether he "gets" what his responsibility is); it did not contain one of the most important duties

so, I call him on that and he goes: "well, I basically gave that all to the summer student, and we need to talk what happens when she leaves this week, I certainly can't do that all"

WTF, we gave some of your work to the summer student so she could learn, not you slack off

I was not impressed by that attitude in the spirit of "taking responsibility"

what say TUT, should I give him more chances or cut him loose
kick him in teh nutz?

DON'T tell them your last salary

tell them what you want to get (plus 10% so that they have negotiating room)

I hate to say it, but that is so typically WOMAN

renting kids would be a little hard on the kids. maybe it would be better to rent a little person trained to behave like a kid.

Most people find their spouses that way though. It's just the way it happens. Stopping this travel bullshit will be the key for you I think. You're gonna be way more social on a daily basis.

That will either Inspire him to toe the line or inspire him to seek other options.
there is never a pay cut at a state university entity

plus, he is at the bottom of his pay scale and in the very entry level

my gut feeling right now is he will not last another month, but I don't have the strongest reason yet to fire him - also, the prospect of having to train another monkey is not appealing at all

but the latter, of course, should never be reason to hang onto a non-performer....
