    family members who didn't grow up together, barely know each other, and make lots of assumptions about each other while being too lazy to actually talk to each other........in the 3rd world, you all live in one room, and everyone does their best to nurture & take care of each other...gotta lean on each other just to make it through each day.

    Have to go away again tomorrow to spend another couple of days in a nice hotel.. getting tired of it, just want to stay home for once and do nothing. I guess that's what winter's for.

    It is nice working for a company that is the opposite, they actually only hire full time and part time is unheard of. But we do not have a high turn over all of our office staff has now been here 5+ years with one exception in my location.

    It truly shocks me talking to people the jobs that are now part time and instead of one person they hire 3 to 4 to fill one position.

    Yep this is all places are hiring. Instead of one good full time they break up the shifts so they are part time and just hire more people. I'm even having trouble finding part time because they all seem to not like it that I have two other part time jobs...Well what am I supposed to do to get a full time work week in? I can't survive off of working 15 hours a week at barely above minimum wage! But they don't want to bother with people who have to work schedules around other schedules. Well I have a suggestion: offer full time and we won't have this problem with scheduling one job around another!

    I just really want one good full time job so that I can get a good nights sleep (currently my work schedule is until 2-3am at my one job, then I have to be back up and ready to go for my other job at 8am), hopefully have it include a benefits package, could start saving for a down payment on a place of my own, start saving for retirement, and be able to go out with friends once in awhile instead of working what seems like all the time because of the gaps of hours in between my jobs. Not to mention working the strange hours leave me exhausted and unable to actually go out on my nights off because I'm just too tired to even consider dressing up and dragging my tired self out.

    I just want full time or to win the lottery please! I would happily accept either right now!

    I think they are kinda cute, in a practical sort of way, loop handles to pull them on easily. Hope she doesn't spill the beans to her gramma that you don't like them, just make sure she trudges through all the muddy puddles to keep them covered up. Hang in there!

    Oh yeah, my fwp was that I bought too much meat not realizing there is not much freezer space so I have to cook now.
