That's better.

ahhhh....but have you forgotten you are able to click on the original post

So do I. No leads. I've been told to check with....a temp agency.

Well...desperate times call for desperate measures.... And...why not? Let THEM find you something

 

[bubba's mom]

I need my DH to come home

He left at 5am and worked 6-6 today ....and tomorrow too!

 

[the Dark Marauder]

People/companies don't believe in 'paper' applications anymore Online now. Did you put your resume on Monster dot com? Still wishin' you luck

IDK if that's towards Penny, me, or both. Monster has been well, a monster, for me. The bad kind. I've had better luck (overall) with careerbuilder.

Well...you at least have THAT going in your favor for when UO has the 'job fair' (as long as you weren't fired) You'd think they'd want someone with the experience Make sure it 'sticks out' on your resume to them. A lot has changed in the 9 years since you worked there...like Penny said, you can't even apply in person with 'paper' application Still....good luck!! Hope you get a job there you like....

I wasn't fired, I resigned properly in 2005. If they still have me on file (they should) they'd see in my record all the good things I did.

Until then...

struggling to stay awake; not sure if i'll last thru idol tonight...anybody else watch it? mac...i'm waiting for u to dish

tricia - somehow i missed the fact ur little guys were sick again-stinks how it's going around big-time this year more peeps down that i ever can remember

DM - Dashing Man...of mystery it's a mystery why the Unemployent office is being so useless imo Don't pay a fee to any agency; ripoffs abound
sleep deprived thought - anyone in the witness protection program

barb - very interesting...i'd worry about by internal organs cooking (too many SKing novels); did you skin feel along the line of what happens after a cold or hot tingle lotion?

Putting on banking hat (worked in commercial real estate dept of bank for many years) - as for reward cards tied into CC,

*i've just started to use Discover to run some stuff through - had 5X value on travel charges for the next 3 months & a low interest rate.

*Juniperbank/Barclay has a signature line of credit card that easily gets you vouchers on AirTran. Every $1K = 1 point; 8 points equal 1 way. Much easier to redeem now that you can book reward travel directly online. Interesting thing about this CC is that the maximum allowable credit line is not reported on your credit report...which can be an issue when debt to income is high or even to disguise large available lines of credit when soft pulls are done on your credit report.

*WaMu/Providian has standard reward program, DH uses off & on; we do carry a small balance of this card; appears as though you get rewards points for said existing balance each month - odd. Checked it the other week & found we had enough points for a gift card.

*I like Chase Disney, transferred a balance for 1.99 rate a few years ago. Know Chase has many offerings/reward programs; perhaps you could just ask to switch it over to keep the credit rolling. Always better to not close the card, just put it aside. If for some reason you really want to terminate the relationship; be sure to ask that they flag your credit report as "closed at customer's request".

both and there ya go...NOT being fired is gonna work in your favor

struggling to stay awake;

that's cuz you didn't sleep last nite!

barb - very interesting...i'd worry about by internal organs cooking (too many SKing novels); did you skin feel along the line of what happens after a cold or hot tingle lotion?

nah...didn't feel "hot" while I was in there....not worried about cooking from inside out It says you're supposed to have the tingle feeling without the 'burn/hot'....I didn't feel tingly OR hot but my skin sure was soft!

thank you ms. banker! I will explore those possibilites. I won't "close" the Disney Visa..will keep it just to get 'special offers' ...but, want to use a card with rewards that we'll USE.

Thanks again!!!

Well after worring myself to death over my ressies for RPR since I made them in Jan and haven't heard from them.
Today I finally got my email confirm

 

[loribell]

Well the dis is to slow for me & the computer is acting up again. Guess I will call it a night.

 

[RVGal]

I'm still among the living. It's been questionable more than once today, but I'm still kicking.

Went to blow my nose a few minutes ago and it hurt really bad. I thought it was just sore from all the sinus gunk, but I looked in the mirror to see if was red or whatever. Holy cow! There was a zit the size of Virginia on the side of my nose!

I bet that was TMI. We'll blame the flu, shall we?

Brad made us tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner. He's trying to make amends.

We've dealt the first round of yucky cherry medicine to the boys. That is SO much fun.

Oh, and Dr Broomstick simply suggested that if my symptoms haven't improved by the end of the week to give them a call. If he doesn't have a chart in front of him, you don't exist. If he has a chart then he can throw pills at you. I have his number.

I hope this is the worst day of this bug and it all gets better from here. Last night and today have been off the chart bad.

Seen that show too and thats why I tell my DS's to always wash those cups out before using them Dw tells me to stop being such a nut over those things but tell thats ok I can be nutty for the both of us

 

[Metro West]

It's odd. I was able to go in in 1999, apply, interview on-the-spot, came back for a 2nd interview, got the job on-the-spot. I worked there for over 6 years, mostly good, a couple of bumps here and there, but otherwise a solid record.

Madness, I tell you. Madness. No 300 references, please.

I don't know if the pompous woman in charge of HR for the professional side is still there but I think she's the problem.

Did you interview on the theme park side or professional? I was on the professional side when I interviewed.

that would never happen at Universal

Hey do they make those zippers for teenagers cause if they do I will buy some

 

[RVGal]

Just heard a bit on the between the shows news... Lunar Eclipse begins in 30 mins or so if anyone is interested.

I don't plan to be awake in 30 mins... and some of you are in areas that are too freaking cold to go outside anyway... but I thought I'd toss it out there.

I'm off to bed. Tomorrow, let's hope, should be a better day.

It was. And...ok.

Brad made us tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner. He's trying to make amends.

We've dealt the first round of yucky cherry medicine to the boys. That is SO much fun.

Okay...I give him credit...he has at least noticed and is trying.....

Oh, and Dr Broomstick simply suggested that if my symptoms haven't improved by the end of the week to give them a call. If he doesn't have a chart in front of him, you don't exist. If he has a chart then he can throw pills at you. I have his number.

Okay...the good news in this statement is that the day after tomorrow IS the end of the week....so, if you ain't better by tomorrow afternoon, call and get an appointment for Friday...BEFORE the weekend

Dontcha just love drs. I got a letter from my drs. office that they will no longer take patients who don't have Humana Gold or Medicare. Since I pay with cash, I have to find a new dr.

 

[coastermom]

Hey do they make those zippers for teenagers cause if they do I will buy some

I want them too !!! I need about 10 of them to start .

Ok just came by to say

GOOD NIGHT !!

We are getting our new bedroom set in the morning and DD also has school . I just want one day to sleep in late and not get out of bed before 7 this week . I may get it on Saturday but who knows .

Going to watch the lunar eclipse which is ending soon . My DD 15 told my DS 6 that the moon was disapearing FOREVER . So he had this look on his face . It was pretty funny but I then had to explain the who thing to him . Not even sure it I explained it right .

Got to get off to bed . Hope all the sickies feel better in the morning . Here is a big hug for you all .

See everyone in the morning

And Barb I am missing off your list . I will deduct 5 PTS off that test now . Don't worry I will need a cheat sheet too as I am lucky if I know my own name half the time .
