    Whew! I was worried when you didn't answer back. I'm sure glad you've found your sense of humor.

    Keep us updated. =^..^=

    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.

      Re: Broken heart and pockets

      If you are intelligent, and have skills, you will not be unemployed long. When I worked for GKN automotive, I would interveiw people for open positions on my shift. That is when I learned how many idiots and worthless people are in the workforce. I used to tell my sons as we would drive through town that every business we pass has at least one dumb ass that the boss wishes he could replace...EVERY ONE. That was 20 years ago and it is worse today. You simply have no idea. There are places that are just waiting for someone like you to walk in. A person who is a hard worker will always be in demand.


      And just to help make that point, my wife just text me that she is working with an idiot tonight.

        Money and pride are mutually exclusive in the workforce. One or the other will suffer even if you try to persue and hold onto both.

              Good Luck finding the next workplace ....

              I saw a sign once that read " As you're waiting for the next door to open :
              Do something worth-while in the hallway " .
              "The Serenity Prayer" . . .
              God grant me the serenity to accept stupid people , the courage to not waste my time and energy on them , and the wisdom to know that I cannot fix STUPID .

                Why do they call it common sense?

                If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

                  Wish we could find people with experience, were lucky get any resumes even when looking for no experience. I know you'll find work only be short time.

                    Now to make things worse, I have been in the hospital for the last week for a very nasty infection. If I had waited 2 more days to see the doctor, I would be sorting manuals with Paul right now.

                    what else can go wrong?.

                        True story:
                        I got out of hospital after serious surgery and still in pain.
                        Drive to get a RX filled and the battery in my truck is dead.
                        I am thinking it is a good thing I don' have a dog or I would be a living Country Western song.

                        After 3 months I finally get ex to have dinner with me so I can then I can get my stuff.
                        She has 6 of the most loving dogs and a cat she ignores.
                        All the animals remember me and go nuts and each climbs in my lap one @ a time.
                        Gives me time to say goodbye to each.
                        I know it is over and just deal with it.

                        I decided to stop @ the bar when a Country Western song starts playing and realized I just lost 6 dogs and a cat.
                        I haven't laughed so hard in years.
                        There was the lost dogs missing from the song.
                        I am now a living example of a Country Western song.
                        I wished I could play it backward. LOL

                        To make things even funnier, I went out to the back patio to have a smoke, when 3 puffs later they turned off the lights.
                        The lyrics came to my mind "When the music's over, turn out the lights."

                        I had half the bar asking me what was so funny.



                        Just a note to just hang on a little bit longer.
                        Things have to change.
                        I interviewed and hope I get a job repairing robots.

                              Take heart, don't lose hope, lest you perish! Has anyone ever warned you that 'things will get worse before it gets better? That there will be some chaos on the path to order? That there will be tears as well as laughter on the path to better alignment?

                              If I may suggest, ''TRY JESUS!!!, He will come calm down the storm in your life; he has the power and authority to calm even the winds and the waves!. He will give you the abundant life & the future you hope for, AND your life will never be the same!!!" He is the prince of peace. You may PM me for 'His contact address there in the US'.

                                I have had so many doors close in my life (I'm on a down at the moment as another door closed 2 weeks ago), but, in my experience, even when it feels like life will never be good again, the next door opens to something even better and you end up wondering why you ever grieved for what you lost.
                                Thinking of you hunny, I'm glad you've kept your sense of humour, it really does help.
