Anyway, happy Thursday!

And should be obvious, but are evidently not! However, I have to echo from your first tip-- DO be NICE to the receptionist.

I had to interview candidates to be my teaching assistant. One lady spent the entire interview correcting me and telling me how she could do my job better than I could. Yeah. She didn't get hired.
