Job interview went well.  But I'm honest if I'm not sure I want it.

It's a great job and will pay better than my current job.  As it's at a vet clinic I'd get reduced pricing on my pets needs as well.

BUT I don't see much upward growth in it.   Whereas if I"m patient with my current job, I could eventually manage a club and even move up from there.  

But it's full time hours, better pay than I currently make and could be a career type job if I'm content with staying in one position. 

That's a tough one. I say, take the job you think you'll be the most happy at. I mean money makes a difference of course, but if you hate what you do, you'll be miserable most of the time anyways. But who really enjoys working after all? Hmm.... 

 

 

It's been a long exhausting day for me today so off to catch some zzzz's. Goodnight!

Hey I enjoy working...

Looking back at my decades of work history, it's a sense of accomplishment, a satisfying feeling, very fulfilling. 

It's like I went for a swim that lasted for decades, and now I'm back on the shore...

More ranting threads!

 

 

just returned from eating arrachera tacos, they were delicious.

Cramping bad though, stupid lady days. I'll stop complaining before the mansplaining begins and they tell me I can't complain about women issues here.

 

the cold days are over, and I'm sad. I hope they come back. Being from the Caribbean means I never have cold winters, and I'd love to, at least once

especially since I've never seen the snow. I guess you always crave what you don't have.

I'll send you some of our -25° F weather when it rolls around again if you want.

I don't think anyone here likes it when it is that cold, your face gets frostbitten from just being outside a couple of minutes.

I was taking a nap until my bank calls

If our bank interrupted our nap, we'd transfer our $Many,000,000,000,000,000,000 in POTS funds to another bank immediately, grrr man.

But none of our banks would dare risk this, no man; we are a business typhoon not to be trifled with, si and no man.

We grew up in the Midwest, D2 ma'am, and if we never see another snowflake, we won't care, NO man.

Speaking of typhoons, besides ourself man:

 

Girl from the POTS office just jetted off for a Many-day trip to Ireland, bye she man.

We saw on the TV weather that a hurricane (Ophelia) is headed straight for there, amazing-but-true man.

During Harvey, this girl had to be evacuated by East Texas rednecks in a motorboat from her flooded abode, all-wet she man.

And she was the only one in the POTS office to have suffered any ill effects from Harvey, scathed she man.

Where she's going will be on the "dirty" side of this hurricane, repeat performance man.

Such unbelievable bad fortune, snakebitten she man!

Mrs. T-B. will accompany Mama T-B. on Sunday to look at retirement-type abodes, downsizing senior she man.

Mama T-B. mercilessly purging endless boxfuls & bagfuls of accumulated stuff, donate generously senior she man.

Mama T-B.'s casa unscathed during hurricane, but obviously got scared poopless, resolute senior she man.

However, perhaps such a move makes sense before she's "forced" to, and she is Many years old, quite senior she man.

We will be in charge of Sunday laundry and Mini-B. in alternating-if-not-wildly-vacillating order, responsible we man.

Another haiku, bonus-worthy by you man/ma'am:

 

Cat asleep on couch;

looks like exploded pillow.

Must brush later, si.

It's rarely worse than a day or 2 of rain and wind by the time it gets that far, fingers crossed this isn't the time it stays bad..
