2 pairs gloves? He works in a lab? Forensics?

Gumpklar

He packs frozen meat patties.

It's all about sanitation.

Oh sad! I guess I missed that post. Does he have any sort of pain management or anything?

Yeah, it's called 'don't bend the finger and it won't hurt'

heehee

Off to the DMV to get the Teen her SC license. Got mine yesterday.

Glad to hear the finger wasn’t broken. Is he icing it to get the swelling down?

Swelling has finally gone down on its own.

I keep telling him to ice it.

He refuses.

Then he goes and fiddles with his toys that have stuck joints and yells that his finger hurts >=[

[SAT 9,609]

How did he hurt his hand?

It may be you missed my point? I'll write more

Each city has a chamber of commerce. Find it.

Once you find it - talk with the secretary - tell her you want a schedule of events and let her know you'd like to attend.

Then - go in person to the Chamber of Commerce Office - talk with the President of the Chamber, tell him/her you want to volunteer at several of their events.

Attendees at chamber events are business owners and sales geeks, all looking for new business. It usually is an informal-enough gathering where you can approach people and talk with them.

Now, the cool thing about being a volunteer there - is that you will be talking to everyone at least once - you might be at the reception table, you might be at the greeters table, you might help to run the audio/video system - whatever - but - the point is that you can meet everyone there, face to face.

Attend 2 or 3 of these, and folk remember you. When folk remember you, they will remember you are seeking employment and will consider you , because yer just not some name on a piece of paper - they met you at a chamber event and know that you were volunteering, helping out the chamber.

Go Get Em, and Good Luck !

PS - live in a really small, POS town? go to the biggest town that's within 15 miles of yer house.

POS = El Torro Caca..

This is really good advice, thank you Darnell! LOL at el "El Torro Caca"

Update: I just got called in for an on-site interview (had the phone interview last week), they're paying for my flight and board!

Well, my mother's come out of her surgery okay (she had 3 major blood clots around her head/neck). Just got off the phone with her and I'm.. well, not sure what to think after hearing her stutter and not able to piece phrases together.

[Novembro 1,763]

Sorry Ryan! At least she came out of it alright.

Just to prove that even the skipper gets his cojones busted by me.......

10 hrs?? I thought old people sleep very little

[Asia 2,498]

Where's the professor?

He really is MIA... I hope he's okay tho.

He pissed me off. I was gonna stay here til I retire. But if I get pissed off enough, I'll start my own identical company.....

May be I'll give him notice and make him nervous.....

Do that! I dare you!

Or just start giving him some hints about it...

I wear jeans every day

Me too!
