I've spent the last two weeks traveling.
One for work and one for fun.
Little blogging and lots to do.

Work is mostly sitting around in meetings wondering what I'm doing there (in a cosmic and literal sense) and when it will be over.
I was beginning to feel like Bean in Ender's Shadow.
Lots of food everywhere.
I also made this form for the Cerner interview process based on my observation of their employees.

Is the applicant young, attractive, and well-spoken?
-Yes= Hire immediately
-No= Offer a warm handshake.

It seems like those are the basic requirements for their employees. Closely followed by being tech-savvy and cordial.
There were a lot of cookies around that office though. I wonder how they keep all that up?

Just found this little gem on the internet. Like all things on the internet, could this be for realz?
It's supposedly a memo (few years old) posted by the Cerner CEO, chewing his middle management out for poor productivity.

Must have gotten that straightened out, these people were great to work with.
I guess David wasn't joking about the beatings though...

Cerner even has their own "facebook" (complete with iPhone app.) Crazy world in it's own. Our building was an old Casino on the Missouri River. It was quite fancy and a little weird to have meetings in.
The buffet was good (as previously stated.)

Also, on the mention of Facebook. I've deleted myself, removed as much as I could, contacted the Admins and submitted a request to be deleted.
I'm through with social media (well...sort of.)

Facebook was going to get me in trouble (again) eventually (again) and I decided I'm done with it. Not interested enough in most people's lives. This way if I really want "social interaction" I'll actually talk to someone, not look at pictures of their dog without their knowledge.
Besides all that pseudo-friendship probably isn't good for society.
This way I can spend more time blogging!!

If you want to contact me you'll have to email, call, text, or write me.
Ha.
