Video games increase hand eye coordination and problem solving abilities. Surgeons who play video games have greater fine motor control, making minute incisions easier and generally decreasing the amount of damage done and scar tissue created during an invasive surgical routine.

I've been doing a lot of Little Big Planet lately, tossed in w/ some flight and racing simulation (no, not NASCAR). Played the Demo for MGS4.... I do enjoy a good sneaking around, but I do love to light some shit up.... You get to do that later in the game? and the music there isn't quite my style. perfer stuff a bit faster pace (okay, srhooms was funny) Quote:

I'm going into week 2 of no job. Call me optimistic, but I hope I find something this week....two if I have to! :D |

Quote:
I have 2 definite interviews this next week as well as taking the civil service exam (the state is hiring). I also have a couple more decent leads that I have to go apply in person too. Since I've pretty much applied at all the good places via online, I'm now out for whatever I can find that will help pay the bills. I'm still waiting on my pink slip to see what they wrote as the reason they let me go. I've gotten my last pay check via snail mail but no slip....?? |
Quote:
I'd be curious as well, it sounds like a really odd situation but you said they were giving you severance? correct? Good luck w/ the Civ Serv exam. Ya get a gov job you're pretty much solid (pretty much not 100%, k? heh) How's the kiddo doing? feeling better? |
Quote:
The owner said she'd give me a severance pay. I haven't seen that either. :idk: I thought everything would have came in one envelope...instead the only envelope I got was my check stub (I have/had automatic deposit). Since I haven't received anything I'm curious to know if I've actually been laid off (since she told me to come see her in 90 days) or what the deal is. I'd try to go see her but I need a code to get in the door. I imagine mine's already been taken out. If I call, I have to get around the manager first and I don't trust her to tell me much. She loves talking in circles. :rolleyes: It would be really nice if I could get a state job. The local charity hospital has 2 positions open for admissions. My aunt worked there years ago and got a really nice retirement from them. I have a couple of friends that work there too and the benefits are still the same. If I could get one of those positions, I'd be set! :dthumb: The Young Padawan is at his dad's for two weeks (50/50 custody...two weeks with me...two weeks with their dad). I talked to him last night and he says he's doing a little better. When I picked him up from school, I stopped by the store for some meds for him. Hopefully whatever he's managed to get sick with isn't bad. Especially since today is his birthday. Young Padawan is 14 today. :D |
14? well I guess I shouldn't of made the "Kiddo" remark.
You have any other way to contact the owner? Anyone else to speak to? I can't see why you'd *have* to go through that manager..... That's one of the things I"m thinking w/ your situation, w/ teh severance and the word to come bak in 90 days.... I dunno, try to get in touch w/ the owner... But still, 3 mo is a long time to wait. Good luck w/ that test though! |
Quote:
I can call her direct line but if she's not in, it'll just rollover to the manager. I think I may have owner's hubby's cell phone number somewhere...... I can prolly get someone from work to get me their home phone...I was supposed to have had it anyway for emergencies...hmmm.... I'm not waiting the 90 days and I'm really hesitant about going back to a place where I'd be afraid any day I could get fired or laid off due to office politics. I need a job where I'd feel fairly comfortable working and not having a constant fear of losing my job...again. |
Quote:
I haven't been approved for unemployment yet. should find out soon. |
Well you got boned (and unforunatley not in a good way, such a shame!).
I'm not sure i'd want to go back anyways, not with that bitch at the helm in the mgmt position. You could always do what we mentioned before, get a meeting w/ the owner, go in, show off that flashy new resume of yours and say "yeah, and I can't work for that raving bitch" (okay maybe not quite that language). Maybe an alternative can be worked out. And no, no one could blame you, I wouldn't (and honestly couldn't) wait 90 days to go back. |

Quote:
I'm actually thinking about doing just that if I can meet up with her. I'd be passive aggressive with it though. Show her the resume and ask her if I left anything out. :lol: |
Quote:
I don't think it would be improper to call the owner @ home to schedule an appointment for the following day or two, since you "couldn't get ahold of her at the office." Might be an idea. |

there is only a 1 week waiting period here and it starts when you file not (like MO) when you were let go. I've sent out several resume's and gone and filled out 1 app. for a state job doing floors in a mental hospital. much less responsibility than the job I just left and damn near the same money. funny how most jobs listed don't want you to come see them in person unless they call you. they want you to send them a resume and that's it. no physical address in the add for you to even go pester them for a job. I have found some listings for up to $18/hr though in manufacturing which is more than I was making. |

What's up zed? I'm from down in Springfield, MO.

Yeah, I've noticed most jobs, even in the newspaper, don't give you an address to go pester...sometimes a phone number, but oftentimes they want a resume faxed or emailed or tell you to go to their website and apply online. Quote:
I don't quite have mine under control. I'm getting better at it, but still not quite there yet. :lol: |

One evening a man was at home watching TV and eating peanuts.
He'd toss them in the air, and then catch them in his mouth. In the middle of catching one, his wife asked him a question - and as he turned to answer her, a peanut fell in his ear. He tried and tried to dig it out but succeeded in only pushing it in deeper. He called his wife for assistance, and after hours of trying they became worried and decided to go to the hospital. As they were ready to go out the door, their daughter came home with her date. After being informed of the problem, their daughter's date said he could get the peanut out.. The young man told the father to sit down, then proceeded to shove two fingers up the father's nose and told him to blow hard. When the father blew, the peanut flew out of his ear. The mother and daughter jumped and yelled for joy. The young man insisted that it was nothing. Once he was gone, the mother turned to the father and said, 'That's so wonderful! Isn't he smart? What do you think he's going to be when he grows older?' The father replied, 'From the smell of his fingers, I'd say our son-in-law.' |

Besides, I didn't sleep worth a damn. I went to bed, tossed and turned for a couple of hours, got up for a little while, then went back to toss and turn some more. I finally got to sleep about 5am-ish. I used to work overnights so trying to get back on a real schedule has been a pain, plus I'm stressed so I'm not sleeping like I should. :( |
Just picked up a massive amount of dog shit from my back yard. Gross.
