Comment on Unemployment in Michigan at 9.3% by Monroe on a Budget http://mittenmusings.net/wordpress/?p=794&cpage=1#comment-59756 Monroe on a Budget Sun, 07 Dec 2008 22:34:33 +0000 http://mittenmusings.net/wordpress/?p=794#comment-59756 I've told some of my out-of-town relatives that number ... and there was a considerable look of shock on their faces. In the meantime there have been a lot of layoff notices announced. I’ve told some of my out-of-town relatives that number … and there was a considerable look of shock on their faces.

Comment on Treading lightly. by Lisa http://mittenmusings.net/wordpress/?p=805&cpage=1#comment-59449 Lisa Thu, 04 Dec 2008 13:34:31 +0000 http://mittenmusings.net/wordpress/?p=805#comment-59449 Great point, and one I have considered. I actually have revised my reference list, swapping out two members not so long ago. I also only give out reference information if I am 100% certain that they are going to be called, which is usually after an interview round or two. I don't want to burn out those folks nice enough to stick their necks out for me. Plus, I give my references a "heads up" call to let them know if I am in the running for a position. --Lisa, Keeper of the Blog Great point, and one I have considered.
