h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

May have some really good news later this week.

Woo hoo! I hope you will have good news later this week, and am eagerly anticipating hearing about it when you do!

Not possible nor ever

as a practicing existentialist I am relegating myself to deconstruction of all meanings, I cannot even decide whether or not this statement is true because the words used ceased to make sense.

I can experience things though and suffer, not that I can even prove that I exist, but some people infer the existance of an I because they say that experience of suffering infers that there is an I. But since there are only effects that are detectable only implies the experience not the existance of an I.

So how is your day?

Am a little closer to the good news.

Will have a further update next week.....

*sends good encouraging thoughts to Mickey, and people thinking of employing Mickey *

I claim it first, since I've been unemployed for longer. Two years and counting from a great aerospace job. Bills pile up.

Of course all the good jobs are going out of country to China or some other third world country. So flip hamburgers like the rest of us.

Sorry to be so negative but I really hate this situation, it sucks big time.

No juice on this job , but have a few other leads I'm following up.


Mikey

No luck for me yet

Hi there, Mikey. Sorry to hear that the job didn't pan out, but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that you'll find something soon. Chicago could be a nice place for a girl to work and live.

I might be joining you in your search, perhaps after the first of January or at the start of the new fiscal year, if things don't change for the better.

The lack of overtime situation still awful?

I have to agree, Chicago is a wonderful place for a gal to call home

The overtime situation isn't all that awful, I guess. I'm mostly over-reacting, worrying too much, and imagining all the worst things possible. How unusual for me to do that.

I managed to pick up an extra hour and a half so far this week. I know things will pick up in March or April, if not earlier, and by June I'll be wishing for *less* overtime.
