Real Life
Posted by Wolfy under continuing education, how clever am i
“I’m not a scientist, but I play one in real life.”
Yeah, you might have heard me say that. Well, no more. From now on it’s, “I’m not a tech geek, but I play one in real life.”
What’s that? Anyone who spends this much time blogging and twittering his late night snacking habits has got to be a tech geek! Well, I managed to fool some pretty sharp dudes, cause THEY GAVE ME A JOB!!!
After weighing the offer over TWELVE donut holes last evening and eating like a heard of HORSES @ Super Burrito, I decided that “Content Developer” sounded like a job made especially for me. (they even specified, “6 foot 2, skinny, scruffy looking, rides bikes. experience with fart jokes preferred.”)
Since I spend about 90% of my cognitive time thinking of ways to be clever on the internets, and the other half making fart jokes, this will be the perfect job for me. And since the guys I’ll be working with seem like a bunch of weirdos, I’ll fit right in. (I wonder if I have to re-up my membership in the RTYFN (Reno-Tahoe Young Foux-hawkers Network…)…)
Thanks to family and friends for help and support in my, uhh, whole thing!!!

ps Stay tuned for details on my celebratory Organic Chicken Bake, and pics of me riding my bike through the new office. (It’s not boredom, just something that needs to be done.)

Yes, our wolfy is moving on up. He’s put in his time in the dungeons of underutilized general-staff-hood and emerges all the stronger for it. At least now he knows how to efficiently waste time, inconspicuously manage his playlist, and, lets not forget, meticulously wash soil samples. Congrats Bro!

What’s your new bosses’ policy on surfing for disgusting websites and/or inflammatory podcasts? This could significantly impact your quality of life.
Congratulations, it’s about time those douchebags at your old workplace had to get off their asses.

Woo Hoo! Go cook up some content! Guess we won’t hear from you for a while, since you have to be “good” at the new job until you get comfortable… I stored my bike and changed clothes in my car for weeks until I got comfortable enough to ask my boss if I could keep my bike in my cube. Now I strut around the office in spandex…

I hope you have your gimp outfit picked out because you are about to become a slave to the search engines….oh, and a couple of other things to.
Congrats!
