Bunch of bull. This place is interested in me specifically because they think they may be adding a unique management position in a few months...

V's good... she's earning commissions on some of her work now, which is awesome.

That's so stupid... to turn down an experienced guy because of a minor technical thing which can be easily remidied by training... and to not hire someone because they have "too much" experience... what the hell is that supposed to mean anyway? I mean, if you're willing to take a lower paying entry position, then who the hell are they to tell you no? It makes no sense...

But hopefully you get that other job, man! That'll be pretty cool!

Glad to hear V's doing well too.... Sounds like things are starting to go pretty well for you guys, and that makes me pretty excited to hear!!

Yeah... it doesn't help that a lot of companies prefer to fill management from in the company to begin with, knowledge notwithstanding. As for the overqualified, I think it comes from a fear that I'll leave before long looking for something better... which may have been true in the wrong circumstance... although this one looks like the perfect circumstance... although in a lower quality establishment than I'd hoped. Oh well.

Wish Denny was here... picked up Fifa 08 to give more incentive to Fred's boy... could use some pointers that I'm sure he could help with.

Haha! Yeah all right, my mind is quite numb. Sure, I'll take a cup of trig jet - It'll go down nice and easy.

Funny to see who hangs out in each forum, you got your GD's, Talkin Smack and ABF really... I find it almost peaceful in here.

He's pretty much indifferent... if anything, I worry he may resent the fact that we go out to watch the game... we let him choose to come, which he doesn't... stays with his grandparents instead. Almost came last week, but decided when we were already late and he wasn't ready to go.

He wasn't really raised on football... so he doesn't have the draw naturally, although he knows a little. He doesn't really have the attention span for it at the moment.

*shrug*

We toss around a football I bought to hang on to during games... but we need to get a smaller one for sure.

Night, man.
