Oh gosh. It feels so good to finally relax. The week back to work after a vacation at Disneyland can really kill ya.
I need a glass of wine. Is there any Chardonnay? |

Woof, I'm not used to the 8-5 grind anymore, but hey it's a paycheck. |

| MissCandice Fri 7/30/2004 10:17p | Hey Fa, I was thinking of going the temp route because I can't stand my job but don't want to settle into a new one because I am moving next year. What's it like? Do you go somewhere new every week? Day?

| aehuckjensen Fri 7/30/2004 10:26p | ^^It depends. There are jobs that last a day or a few days to a few months. If you like meeting new people and learning new things, then being a temp is great. The worst part about it is that you usually don't get benefits, including insurance and paid holidays. |

| FaMulan Sat 7/31/2004 9:37a | huck is right, and it took me a couple of weeks of being hooked up with THREE agencies to get even one assignment. So, it's a dicey proposition if you don't have substantial savings to keep you sane and help keep the wolves at bay (but not LP wolves). |

| aehuckjensen Sun 8/1/2004 10:49p | LOL, the LP has plenty of wolves.
I'm in trouble today for telling someone that some people are offended by the term "Oriental" instead of "Asian". Wasn't that awful of me?Apparently some people actually LIKE to be called Oriental! Who knew?
The kicker is that the poster in question had created the topic to bash Kobe Bryant's alleged victim.
It's a good thing you can't smack people over the internet. |
