So this is somewhat foreign territory for me but...I have an offer but I'm not sure how to turn it down without possibly burning the bridge all together. Its not that I'm not interested so much as I want to see how another scenario plays out this spring. Any thoughts/advice?

Well you could always take it and bail, if the other one comes thru. I guess it depends how quick you want to move back. If you did that the bridge would be really burned in my opinion. Any way to gracefully turn this down? How would the take and bail situation affect you in the industry? Is it ( the industry) big enough you'd be ok or would it put you into blackballed territory.
 
A-town stay down...word to your mother(s)?

I don't mind being patient until spring. I don't really know how to turn it down gracefully :( I truly didn't expect them to move this quick. Industry wise it wouldn't be awful but on the same token, I'd hate to burn a bridge for the future or be without the optio. To reapply in the spring if things don't go as expected.

How long are wanting to wait? You can always tell them you want to have a couple of weeks to decide between your offers.
 
55 like the new avatar pic. Wheel of Fortune started with a phrase for you "'I'd rather be in Hawaii"

BU thanks for stopping by but no Christmas talk till after Thanksgiving please.
 
I think we can all be grateful for that!
I loved the story involving him and the Sanders' campaign from a few weeks ago. He gave Sanders a large contribution because he hoped Bernie would agree to have a private meeting with him and Bernie said he wasn't going to accept the money and gave it to an aids organization. What's his name was ****** and being a whiny *****.

Also, what the rule on apostrophes and possessive nouns? I also thought the rule was if it ends in an s or s sound you don't add an s, but everything in law school is showing that you still add an s. So you'll get weird stuff where it's ss's

The other option can't move forward until spring due to renovations but wished me bad luck in my job hunt until then and basically said the job was mine and theyd hire me on the spot if they had room for me. I don't want to close this current door should that not come to fruition however.

It would be Sanders's, as weird as it looks. The rule ending in s doesn't apply if it's the name of a person.

Just be honest with them. They'll appreciate the honesty and remember you for it.

Cooler is still trying to repair that hole huh?

but it looks so weird. I've just been typing Sanders'. If that's wrong, I don't want to be right!





I do want to be right, but it's still going to bug me.
