Good News

I have a pending offer from Tulane University to be the Program Coordinator for the department of Human Research Protection. Once I pass the background check, they'll make an official offer. :D Yay! They will call back at the end of the week.

Now the annoying part is there are a couple other jobs I'm interested in that haven't gotten back to me yet... so I need to call them and tell them that they should expedite the decision process if they want me to work for them instead. They may or may not care but I figure I'd like to know what options I have. I'll also have to give a courtesy call to those jobs that I don't care about to let them know I won't be available anymore.

I should probably be more excited but I'll wait until the end of the week.

What? You worried the background check will reveal your involvement in the Chinese mafia?

I understand that though... the being worried that you will accept a job and then be offered one you wanted more. Sounds like you've got a good plan though.

Yeah, hopefully they don't hold my Triad connections against me. ;)

But yeah, I don't accept that it's real until everything is finalized. :P

If so, they may send Jacki Chan after you. He's always fighting the Triads! :O

That's great news (if you take the job--even more fun if they fight over you!)! So you'll be overseeing all of the med/psych studies there, hmm?

Unless someone comes up with an offer real quick, I'll probably take this job. :) Basically I'll be managing the people who want to use humans in their research. lol

Sorry, the last comment was me. I'm at a hotel and LJ logged me out, I think because my IP address is different than the one at home.

Human Research Protection??? Are you a human who protects research, do you protect human research, or do you research protecting humans? I can't figure it out!!

If you're researching how to protect humans, I want in on that action!
