      @dafyre She has a normal amount of stuff. Laura's family is insane. I move and in the same day unpack everything. 3 days is insane. She has movers.

        If she has movers, then what in the world is taking you 2 days? Unpacking?

          @dafyre Welcome to the inside of Pam's brain:

          First Day: pack up all fragile items she doesn't want the movers to touch. Then drive to her new place and clean the entire house.

          Second Day: Be in her house when movers are moving stuff.

          Third Day: Rent U-haul and move fragile items to new place.

          Why we can't have one long day and move the fragile stuff while the movers are doing mover stuff is beyond me.

              O.o Now I see your frustration... Of course, I have been in my new house for 4 years now and there's still boxes we haven't unpacked, lol.

                  Never heard of Marcos Pizza. They also offer salads and sandwich too. Might have to check out one their locations near me.

                    They're a little on the pricey side here, but worth it!

                      That's what my in laws from NY, that now live in Texas, swear by. It's not bad. But we've found local pizza on our block in Dallas that is worlds better.

                            Benefits? Not like it compares to NY pizza, so nearby. And even in NY, pizza gets better as you go north, NYC is the end of the good pizza southbound.

                                Only to someone not into pizza. NYC pizza is pizza for tourists. As you go north of the city, pizza switches from being something casual and mostly for show, to being something insanely serious. And the best NYC pizza is made from ingredients shipped from up there. So you get the better water and ingredients up north. NYC has to ship in water to do good pizza, which almost no one does.

                                  Our interview process consists of two stages. Stage 1, a 20 min presentation they give us. Stage 2, a 20-30 min chat. We have about 5 minutes between stage 1 and 2 so that my team can privately discuss the presentation.

                                  At the end of stage 1, I ask if the candidate would like another drink or would like to be shown where the toilets are if they need them - but others think asking them if they need the toilet is weird... is it? Ive never thought its weird. It's a strange office they have not been to before, they could have had a long trip to be here for the interview and may need to 'go'... is it weird to offer that?

                                    I'm offered to be shown the bathroom at EVERY interview I ever go to, unless it's a tiny company and the bathrooms are like in the hallway right outside the door.

                                    Most places I interview require escorts to the bathroom, anyway.

                                        Next time you're in New Jersey we'll do a pizza taste-off with @BRRABill and @dbeato if he's in the area at the time.

                                          I was offered a restroom or fresh air break several times too. I was never offended or at all think it's weird.

                                          But then again, it was nearly a 7 hour interview.

                                            Yes, I did not understand why they found it was strange. Its polite if anything. A previous employer used to show all candidates where the fire exists were just in case etc too.
