So, do you have to answer the phone in insipid SC-mandated way while you're out of the state too?

ETA: I think it's swell that the SC governor spells her name as Nikki. That's sweet. Does she dot her "i"s with a heart too?

I'd love to hear the New Jersey or the New York mandated phone answering phrase. Guesses:

1. Yo. State government office. What the **** is it to ya?

2. Yeah, state government office. You wanna do somethin' about it?

3. Whatsup? State government office. The Yankees are still the best team in baseball (crying a little).

Hey, CB. 3 months in, and they haven't fired me yet.

Actually, it's very different from what I'm used to doing. No software testing involved, but QA on databases and reports generated from the data. It's about a 1 year learning curve, as I get exposed to each of the different pieces of each annual project. By next July, I'll actually get to do something for the second time, and maybe know a little bit about what to do.

So, it's a much more gentle learning curve than-say-this game?

I have read about it today...
