THANK GOODNESS IT'S FRIDAY!!! smile

Friday totally crept up on me. This week has gone by so fast I didn't even realize.

***

I've been happily working my ass off in my repeat class. Aced the first test and am busy working alone repainting my s10 front end.

Today the rest of the class had to go to a mandatory lecture on the interview process. However,...

Cool, I'm glad to hear that things turned around, and quicker than I expected. Sounds like you had a good day.

I like Rollins Band for that "Fuck 'em, AND GET UP" kind of pep talk, but I have to admit I can only take Angry Hank in small doses.

My old friends liked Slayer and Pantera, but I never got into them. What about Quicksand? Do you like them? (They reminded me of Helmet in sound, but a little more introspective lyrically.)

Don't work too hard this weekend.

I'm ready for you to come to WA and paint my car!

GOOD NEWS:

I'm feeling much better about this whole situation. In fact, I'm not even angry any more.

I'm enjoying taking this class a second time. It's the second of five painting classes, so we do a lot of basic stuff. And honestly, I welcome the chance to get REAL good at the basic stuff, seeing as all things are built upon it.

My new...

The worst part about feeling so sad or so angry is that somewhere in the back of my mind I can remember a time in my life where I didn't feel that way. I can even remember being truly happy, inspired, and hopeful about the future.

BAD NEWS:

The punishment stuck.

GOOD NEWS:

The school president came by our class today and let us who had gotten into trouble know that he was giving us the option to re-take the class and that we wouldn't have to pay for it or use up one of our freebie re-phases.

Although I would have passed the class anyway...even with the dropped grades...I've chosen...

FRIDAY 13TH...

NOTHING BUT BAD NEWS TODAY frown

I've been struggling to get my projects done at school.
My fat lazy partner, who sleeps through class but only when he decides to show up...has really held us back. I've done what I could without him...

But today, the END OF COURSE...we headed out into the lab for a measly two hours...I struggled, I enlisted help from...

no i dont remember you. but i never remember anyone, so thats not shocking.

its an outrage. i can only find housecoats in xxxl also. i think im gonna go ahead and just get it though and sew it fit a bit better.

ill be such a stud
legionnaire:
While that undoubtedly sucks - hopefully you may be overestimating its implications on your future career. It is, after all, a single mistake, and like you said, your involvement in it was minimal.

GOOD NEWS:

I passed my first interview for the Mercedes program!

Got the call yesterday and they asked me to come in for the second of three interviews. This time I got to speak to the guy in charge of the advanced training programs in person. The same guy who took my application. It took about ten minutes and then he set me up on...

Hmm.... I guess yay good news and boo bad news. But it would suck to have to move all the way to "Mannyhatten" what my cousin in said city calls it.

And yes Austin is a great town and you should come get to know us kids better...
shamunda:
Excellent!
Just think you can be driving one of them mercedes vehicles soon.

Survived my Mercedes interview...but I'm not sure how well I did.

I'm a fantastic interview in person...but over the phone...not so much.

It was a really structured interview where the guy just read me a list of questions and they recorded my answers.

Silly questions like, are you a habitual smiler? And why?
Or would you pick up your house after a party?

I think...

In less than an hour I'm going to get a call from Mercedes-Benz...it's the first of three interviews to get into their advanced training program.

Originally I wasn't sure if I wanted to be part of this program. I'm not a big fan of the cars or the people who drive them.

Not even the proposition of a starting salary of 50k a year, with...

I'd REALLY hate to think that this is true...but I think one of the kids in my class stole my wallet.

I was going to transfer my stuff into my work bag and couldn't find it. I even searched my car in hopes that it had fallen out of my bag during my commute (which things sometimes do).

But no luck.

The last time I...

Damn. That. Sucks. mad
I've had friends steal from me before. It's a crime that deserves the absolute worst karma. May the flies of 10,000 camels infest their armpits. And may god (or whoever) help that person the next time they run into you w/ a soldering iron...

ditto on that sucking. You gonna be OK? Let me know if there is anything that can be done to help. I hate thiefs almost as much as people who beat their wives.
