Private Messaging is Here! See... we told you it would be!

Hi moderators... There seems to be a glitch on the Inbox section of the control panel (sorry if it's already mentioned). It always shows "0" messages until it's clicked. Once visited, it shows the number of new messages.

Hey Angie81, just sent you a PM. Check your inbox :-)

Does it sound like my prospective supervisor is attracted to me?

She might just be a very kind and attentive person who happens to like you and your work very much. Even if she's attracted to you, you should be thinking about yourself and your priorities first and stop things before they get out of hand. I think it is an important fact that she is in a relationship. Perhaps you shouldn't play games, unless you can't stop yourself which might mean you already have fallen for her. In that case, I think it's best to find another supervisor as a first step.

Hey Tricky.. Great to see you here again. Life's good. Even though I'm still writing the thesis. How is your work / life?

I can see some old names here. I hope you all are well... Anyone submitted their theses since (.. hmmm.. when was the last time...) last year? Who else is still around?

Very clever. I first didn't believe, so I took the image to Photoshop and rotated the triangles over straight lines. Curve and convex then appeared clearly

Anyone see Richard Dawkins last night?

I like Richard Dawkins; it was a nice programme to watch. However I felt like he was keeping a lot to himself (or the episode was heavily edited to cut certain things out). But then again, he has to keep it easy in order to appeal to variety of people, including brain-washed believers.

How many postdocs have you applied for?
4

I have applied for 2 postdoc jobs. Both of the interviews went great, the panel members were so positive and nice, but in the end they didn't want me. I also applied for 4 teaching jobs, and 2 fellowships, same story. I always get short-listed for interviews but never got any positive replies yet. Finding jobs used to be so easy. Now I find it so difficult. I applied for a few "easy" jobs and the feedback I got from them is that my qualifications are not suitable for them, whatever that means. I wish you luck and all the best though.
