Oh, I got offered a good GIS job 90 minutes after I inked a deal to sell insurance (and ponying up the money for the licensing/classes). So, after 3 years, I'll finally have a job, and one I want to do.

I still have nightmares to this day of not showing up to class on time, or forgetting where the room is, or justifying not going but being freaked out nonetheless
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:45pm

@Gary: my school anxiety dream usually involves having somehow forgotten to attend a class all semester.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:51pm

There's another dream where I have to go back to high school as an adult.

listener james from westwood:

I too still have school nightmares, both high school and college. Can't find locker, can't remember combo, can't find classroom, school is an unending maze, can't find school's exit, didn't study all semester, never read the textbook, or a combo plate of two or more of the above. Whee!

yes, Bamako is the capital of Mali.

IIRC once LCD, the WFMU magazine, or maybe the old blog, once published a list of WFMU DJs' DJing nightmares. I also recall "records left on train" being one of them.
Avatar 9:01pm
northguineahills:

My only school nightmare I have is my job sending me back to grad school and just being bored and frustrated... (I'm not sure how that premise got in my psyche, b/c there's no basis for it).
Avatar 9:03pm
northguineahills:

I left a crate of records in a cab once, luckily the cab was just at the light down the block and I ran after him and got them back (while leaving my flight case of records on the sidewalk, glad no one took them).

I once left 10 years of original comics art in a cafe and forgot about it until the next day. They had held it for me
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:05pm

Oof, Gary and ngh, what a horrifying feeling both must have been.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:06pm
listener james from westwood:

I'm still bent out of shape about losing a really good, Tom-Baker-as-Dr.-Who-length scarf on a fucking bus a decade ago; either of those sort of losses would immobilize me.

I left a brand new winter coat in an airport taxi (b/c it was darn warm), and a vintage winter coat at a club.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:10pm
Gary:

Here's one that amazes me to this day: I was meeting a friend in the park -- the park in the 20s, I can't remember the name. We sat on a bench taking and having lunch. It was a hot day and I was wearing a nice sport coat, which I took off ... and forgot to bring back to the office with me. After work, I went to the park, and it was gone. But, I asked this guy who was working at the park if he had happened to see it. He hadn't but told me there was a lost and found underground, and took me there. It was there.
