Well, whatever you get, I hope it's very tasty  :)

*happydances*
Got the Job I wanted! company I've been trying to get into for several years now.
Great Pay ($16/hr + $500 monthly bonus) and located relatively close to where I currently live!
Temp-to-Hire But i should still get benefits via the Temp agency. Doesn't start til Feb 11th but I
should be able to survive until that first paycheck!

Congrats. Looking through your post history you seem to be unemployed...often. Ask yourself what are you going to do differently this time to make sure you don't end up unemployed again? use this to grow yourself as a person.

Its advice I've received many times and am frankly a little tired of receiving.
I am perfectly aware of what my resume looks like and I know it has cost me jobs in the past.
But appearances aren't everything and their are extenuating circumstances that the resume doesn't list;
some of those jobs were contracts that ended or in other cases I was unhappy with the work usually do to lack of advancement
or the work was fricking miserable. What sane person wants to stay in a position that pays poorly, has no room for growth and
is driving you to drink? My most recent job I lost due in large part to medical issues.
As part of my interview for the position I straight up explained things with all honesty as I believe honesty is the best policy
especially since last time around I was denied the position due to "Worries I'd be Bored". In the end it got me the job.
Long story short; I have been trying to get into this coming for a number of years as everything i heard nothing but good things about
working there, tons of advancement opportunities, great pay and so on. In short I have found a company to call "Home" for what I hope
will b a longer and happier career.

Good maen everyone!
It's a rainy day and somehow cool (for the peak of Summer) so I am enjoying to be home.

I'm trying to get a bunch back but it's slow going. I had to dump my Photobucket acct because slowed down my old worn-out computer too much. Too many ads running concurrently.  >:(

Oh, sorry about that. Your list of emojis was the best.

Well, and how are you doing?

Sorry 'bout the disappearing act. I'm doing okay. I still have all those old emojis & smileys on my computer, just no way to post them here. :( But I'm slowly gathering a collection of direct post ones now.

No problem about disappearing. We do that a lot in the SHOV. And well, I am glad you still have those emojis in the computer.

I am planning to see the new Mary Poppins soon. Vive la nostalgie!  :)
