Fingers crossed...
« on: May 18, 2011, 06:12:02 PM »
Have an interview tomorrow for a part time job (25-35 hours per week) in a call center that handles installation and service calls for cable companies. I don't have to sell shit or talk to customers, just the technicians, so that makes me happy. I could never be a telemarketer...

Interview is at 2:30 and I'll know immediately if I got the job. Here's hoping cause it would fit in great with my school schedule.

Good luck Mike! I think you'll do great!
I can see November 2 from my house!!!

Spread my work ethic, not my wealth.

Forget change, bring back common sense.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

It seems as if a LOT of the CC unemployed are once again becoming gainfully employed. I hope you continue the trend, Mike. I just got informed tonight that I'll be working full time hours until further notice instead of the 25 hours per week I initially started at.

Got the job! Start 2 weeks of training on Monday. Then I work 30 hour weeks. Not too bad. Hope the DUmmies appreciate my hard work.
