don't get me wrong -- i'm glad the phone is ringing.

It's just that when the Executive Director of Operations uses the expression "reach out to you" ("I wanted to reach out to you and make sure the interest was still there"; "I'm going to have someone in our HR department reach out to you to schedule an interview"; etc.) five times -- or, really, more than once, and even allowing one such use is generous -- in one phone call, it's hard not to smirk.
