dear world: Please make the birthday monster go away.
I don't wanna be 23 and have a crappy job and no place to live after the school year ends...

eek

note to self, don't tell Fiddler age...

No worries.
I've been going on 75 for the past decade. wink

Nuri, you and Davit can always crash on my couch (hide-a-bed) until y'all get established. 3nodding

At least you have a job. I'm gonna be 21 tomarrow, and I don't even have a job gonk I've never had one for more than six weeks.

It almost seems as if the trouble with a job thing is everywhere! My husband and I both just graduated with honors with a Bachelors Degree in Criminal Justice Administration, and we still can't find a good job!!

Why on Earth is that! It is almost harder now that we have a degree than before college. All he keeps hearing is NO NO NO!! What to do?

You are quite a-ways away from Normal, unfortunately

I'm about to start hitting retail work, despite not wanting too. It's better than phone work, which I refuse to do.

I know I'm (more than) a bit odd... but was that really necessary...? sweatdrop

If you have half a brain and can keep appointments, my company has work... 3nodding
Of course, few people want to do tech consulting. sweatdrop

I just applied for a job that teaches schools how to use their email. I think it'd be fun.  

[Fiddlers Green]

Oh... heheh... smile

As for teh job, that sounds like it could be fun, it could have some of the flustering of Tech support, but at least it is teaching. surprised

Doesn't help when those of us who thought we could stomach tech consulting start wishing doom on users daily. *giggle* You've heard me rant enough. But hey, if I got desperate, it's a *shudder* fallback, I suppose.

I really liked tech monkeying.
But we had a mute button.  

[Fiddlers Green]

I should clarify, my company goes on site to do the consulting.
There isn't really much explaining over the phone, we charge obscene rates for phone support just to discourage it.
Nope, we go to the pudding brains and fix their stuff in front of them usually. 3nodding  

[CuAnnan]

And I'm single again.
After more than three years.
The road ahead is hard.  

[Fiddlers Green]

Yeah, but the road ahead is all yours. wink
