I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

My driver's ed guy was a little different from yours, Suzi. I think he was from Mississippi. Not that that matters except for the accent I hear him in. Direct quote relating to safe stopping distances: "Now, if I see a blind person in the intersection, I'm gonna give him some room. I don't know about no te-eeen feet, though."

The section on long-distance driving began "Say you goin' down to Memphis for the dawg races."

He sounds like fun! I had Mr. SillyName, who wore silly pants. I know it's not kind to make fun of him, but boy he was... silly.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I just told two co-workers how I sing "Mama's little baby loves shortening shortening" to my kitten boy Caspie (he loves it, btw). I think I have to kill them now, eh?

What I remember of Mr. Schaeffer the driver ed teacher was him singing along with "Lucille" on the radio as a I drove.

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille!"

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Is the recruiter on the East coast?

No idea --but it is not unusual for this to happen . I had a recruiter yell at me, because I suggested that leaving a message on Matt's cell phone was more effective than leaving a message with me that he wasn't going to get for 6 to 8 hours. And then there are the recruiters that Matt has 80% of the experience they are looking for -- and they keep trying to make him say that he knows the other 20%. There are some things you can't fake. And then there are the ones that want him to give a bottom salary number, push him and when he gives a reason response - reason and number range -- they ask if it is negotiable -- meaning only lower.

there are some really good recruiters out there-- but there are whole lotta wannabes that don't have the basic people skills or organizational skills to do the job well. ( know the jobs , know the co, know your people and don't out and out lie)

Opps, I committed rant

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

This no voice crud is so done. I normally like the guys I work with, but they are enjoying laughing at my whispered conversations a bit too much.

I want my voice back.

Rubber bands, paper clips, and germy spitballs are perfect for office warfare. I'm just saying.

Matt is on his phone interview now. I can't quite hear the words, but I love listening to him talk when he really know what he is saying . Smooth, confident, and articulate.
