Kentucky here. I stopped looking last night before y'all got here. hey peppy 68 hours here, looking at another 84 unless something changes. I'm perpetually tired. One day all those stupid bills will be paid; but, I will probably just go and get more bills. ooohhh what a vicious cycle.

Thanks Rick. The job is police dispatcher. Boy I really want to get this job... not only would it be a great job (exciting, helping people, etc...) but it pays well, too (for someone my age).

The test is just a written test, on reading skills, comprehension, and memory... I think I'll do okay.

Thanks Mike

Hey I have a question for you guys... to see if new posts came up on this thread, what do you do? I don't check my email eveyr 10 minutes, so I don't get them that way. I used to just leave this thread open in a browser window, and clicked "refresh" every 10-15 minutes... but now when I do that it just comes up w/ a completely blank browser window when it's done loading...

So, what I have to do now, is go up to the address bar, and delete the stuff at the end that says #1234567 or whatever post number, and hit enter/GO... then, it will load the page as it is currently, with the new posts that have been posted since my last one...

Wow, that was long-winded... anyone followed that ( )... what do you guys do to see if new posts came up on our Night Shift thread.

What's weird is that when I hit the refresh button, all that comes up is a blank page - just plain white, no text no pictures, nothing... But, if I click the "go" button, it actually refreshes the page, and brings it up with the new posts and all. Go figure.

Wow I missed alot....I ran off researching some tire chains.....everbody shows up like it was a Sunday Formal.

Its weird how workin tons of hours sucks....till you get in the groove. Suddenly you find yourself needing it. Maybe its just me. I actually showed up an hour early tonight. My old routine has been overtaken by all work.....didnt know what else to do.

As far as gettin new bills. I cant stand monthly bills. I'd just as soon wait till I can pay cash, than make payments. All the extra OT gets extra cash....I pay all I need to pay...then I go lookin for something to buy.....example....tire chains.

I want some serious snow this winter....I wanna play.

Lookin for new posts......I just hit the refresh button.

manyou must really be wanting some serious snow if you're lookin at chains. If this new truck won't get me around in our snow here it's either way too deep and noone is moving or else my Ford Salesman is gettin an immediate call. My dad was my salesman and if the truck doens't so what it is supposed to do he gets a call.

I havent seen snow on the ground in five years. I am seriously hard up for some ice and snow. With limited slip front and back I can go about anywhere. With chains all the way around.......I want to be one of few mothers bad enough to be out there. Argh....wanna be all testosterone about it. Tire Chains outta help with all that.
Mean, hateful......Jolly Roger flag flyin off the headache rack kinda redneck out of line cops lookin at ya yeehaw four wheelin freak show.


Oh, and I'm here till 10am.
