At least it was only 5 hours and not 5 days. Love the music. Why was the music of the 90's so good. Why is mainstream music now not as good? Does it have to do with the record labels just wanting to put out a bunch of shit and all the real artists are on independent labels? It is rather annoying though not to be able to hear really anything worth listening to on the radio now a days. You have to hunt for good music. I guess though it makes you appreciate it more when you find it.

Yeah that does indeed suck. I gave up hope on finding a job.
I couldn't do it anymore I didn't want to go through it anymore.

It's so damn frustration and tedious. My old job wanted me back.
So I'm back with them. I don't even care anymore.

All you need is hope. Maybe you'll get lucky and they hire you back! smile

Funny you should mention gold mine. Ive often that if I suddenly found myself without a job in this economy, I would sell off most of what I ahve, put the stuff I'm keeping in storage, and head for the desert in search of precious metals, like many did during the depression. Yes, it would be a hard life, but one I could maintain.
theennis:
I just assumed you quit that job. I remember you talked about in my blog once.
I quit my job I highly regret now. But oh well at least you're not going to be looking for one now!

So it'll be less stressful and less depressing. What car you planning to get a brand new one or used one?

hehe it's kind of funny you went back just for a free lunch though! smile

1 word for job searching is "DEPRESSING"...

But don't be like me and give up... I just hate it.

I wish I never quit my previous it wasn't that bad.

Just unhappy over there. But aren't most people at their jobs? wink

I got a job interview lined up for tomorrow, for a full time teller position at a bank in town.

its similar to what i was doing at the casino, but then very different too. if i get it, im nervous about it, because im detail oriented, and ok with numbers and finding discrepancies, but i'm horrible at financial matters.

but, when i first started...

Sometimes we just need a push to do something that we should have done already. Glad that you are feeling better about the casino. Good luck with the interview. Let us know what happened.

I am sorry to hear that. Think about it this way things happen for a reason. Maybe this will lead to a new job that is better and more fulfilling.
