The Office Manager went out to Ikea to pick up a cabinet for our new hire's office. When she asked if we needed anyhting else, I answered, as I ALWAYS do, hey, bring me some Swedish Meatballs.

Well, she did! A whole meatball, new potato, lingonberry extravaganza!

Also, when looking through job descriptions of other positions that are the same level (Administrative Assistant), we came across one that said you needed a BS in Law... is there even such a thing as an undergraduate degree in Law?

It's not uncommon in Europe, and found also in Canada. (Possbily only Quebec?) I don't think it's the same thing, though, since this is basically the same as a J.D. here (only with less "degree inflation", they would say).

I think it's possible here, at schools that do pre-professional type programs-- legal studies or something like that.

I know a few lawyers from Ireland who qualified as attorneys basically through an undergrad-type program. I know some Canadian attorneys but can't remember what kind of program they took-- one got her B.C.L/ LL.B from McGill in addition to a B.A.

Well, she did! A whole meatball, new potato, lingonberry extravaganza!

That's awesome.

It's an LLB in Canada, but it's not like you can start law school without at least a couple of years of undergrad behind you.

should my references me completely different from the people who have written me recommendation letters?

Mine overlap, Emily. My top 3 references also are the ones who wrote me letters of recommendation. But, I have 2 other references as well, just in case. No one seemed to care and no one even called my other 2 references, but they did call my top 3.

I think the cooling unit may have drowned. It's so musty smelling, I can barely breathe.

I just bought some M&Ms out of the vending machine, and they're melty.

In your hand and not in your mouth? That's just WRONG.

Those M&Ms ads are deceptive, they claim the milk chocolate melts in you mouth and not in your hand...they say nothing about the candy coating.
