Good evening everyone. Been busy here today I see.

I got 6 applications in today, hopefully one of the companies has some work coming up. I'm going to make another list and possibly do round 2 of applications next week.

I also met up with Tom (mndiesel) today for lunch. What a great guy

He sat back in his chair and just looked at me, with the strangest expression on his face.

The sales manager, a guy from Peru, basically told me that he loved me and I was perfect and that I had the job. lol. He said his opinion was the only one that mattered.

They are bringing in three people for second interviews, so they have two other people they are considering. I am to expect a call on Friday.
Congrats on the second interview. I hope you get the job.

BJs, I will take one. Spoiled teenagers, I have one of those as well. Women Drivers in LA suck really bad and there is not to many places to hunt here in LA.

Sounds like you had a full day. Its cool you got to meet another FTEer. We're all kindred spirits I think its funny how we all get along so well.

I try to make eggs and stuff for Randy sometimes for dinner...he's never interested.

LOL..dangit...I forgot to tell you...BJ's was an abbreviation for balljoints.

So as it turns out, you already have a few.

LOL! Apologies in advance Joe our conversations get a little..spicy in here because certain individuals (me) can't contain themselves, and certain individuals (me) have their minds in the gutter. Ok Scott does it too.

I'm doing good today. I had a great second interview at a good company today, and I *think* (knock on wood) that I have the job...which is good because I haven't worked since I moved to Cedar Rapids in late November of last year.

How are you?

I am okay for the most part. I went to the doc for a really bad sinus infection today and he loaded me up with 6 perscriptions.

I hope you get the job. They are really hard to find these days.

No worries and no apologies needed. I was hoping that I wouldn't get out of line on here.
