I'm back in the work force!
« on: November 15, 2008, 04:18:07 PM »
Hey Brothers!

I had a sudden interview this afternoon at our local Ace Hardware store.  I guess 14 years at the lumber yard taught me something after all.  The interview went VERY smoothly.  And YES, I went to my interview freshly scraped and shiny!  The store manager commented on how "professoinal" I looked with a bald noggin!  She told me it was perfectly acceptable to be bald and have a "tasteful" goatee/mustache combo.  WOO HOO!

So Tuesday morning I will be known as the "Sly Helpul Hardware Man!  Even though the pay isn't the best in the work force, it will be just fine until one of the higher paying jobs comes through!  I plan on keeping my "side enterprise" until I get replaced by someone else.  Business is business, and a job is a job.  You may not always get what you want, but in these wierd economic times, be glad you got something!

I want to thank all of you guys and gals for your support and prayers.  They are all greatly appreciated.

Thanks Bros!

This is a full time position.  I'm pretty happy because the job is so simular to my old position.  I get to learn alot more stuff. 

I've had a little "side job" that I'm going to keep until my friend finds a suitable replacement.  He's very happy for me, but now he has to find someone who knows electronics and good stuff like that. 

Last night, Mrs. BW was pretty upset.  She was sick and tired of everyone telling her that there are no jobs to be found in our home town.  Neeless to say, she is VERY happy.  Best of all, my home is only 5 minutes away from the hardware store!

I say there IS work out there, if you want it bad enough! ;)

Hey man..good for you!!
Our country demands all our strength, all our energies. To resist the powerful combination now forming against us will require every man at his place. If victorious we will have everything to hope for in the future. If defeated, nothing will be left for us to live for.

Great news bro!  O0  Glad to hear.  As long as you are happy is all that matters.  It doesn't matter what you are doing.
