Mornin' all. Still have my job, but not for long obviously. The writing has been on the wall. Things haven't been going good not only on my part, but the wholw shop. I don't feel my performance has been what was expected of me. But at the same time, the owner is being investigated by the DCIS for criminal fraud. If they open the 3 boxes of parts that they confiscated in the raid back in June, they will find scrap parts in those boxes, and that will probably be it anyways.
So I'm taking most of the day off a job hunting, and sending resumes. I have 1 with the state as a caregiver at the mental hospital in Ka'zoo, and another as a maintenance tech' at 2 apartment complexes right here in my town. THAT would save me about $70 a week in gas alone. I also have a couple of tool & die options, but I feel that career is over.
Just trying to get thru the day right now.
Later

Thumbs up * Keep the `Faith *


Hi `Wayne, & all my Monte Family Member's.

Quote of the Day: "Keep your faith"
Thank God it's a Friday
I thank him for each day given, just not Friday
Whose driving your `life ?
Take control, keep the faith & keep driving your life
to where you want to go ~> `be.
(Oh, I think it's always better getting to where you want
to be `if you are driving the AweSome Chevrolet
Monte Carlo : )
..4-Sure
If you give `up, you will go nowhere
It's like having a Monte with no engine : ) lol

I'm still working a 7 day week, and helping others that need
help in their life. I wish I had more time to share with
those I love, but I must give `up to get to where I want to `be.
I've learned that nothing good in this life is E.Z. 4-Sure.

I've learned life is better `if one looks at what they have, then what they
don't. I'm tired, but thankful 2 `be free to pursue my dreams,
to help/share and to enjoy my life.

I hope my words inspires those in my life to keep a
positive attitude, and don't let the negatives...., the bad
take over & control your life.
EnJoy your Day, your Now....it is the present of `life.
Make the most of `it 4-Sure.
Peace/Out
(That's all that's fallen outa my mind this early in the day : )

..I look 4ward to day's like the above....they are fading with life's obligations, but when they do happen , we enjoy all the more..4-Happy Sure : )

Space it was good to read your words. Life is to short to work all the time. Hope things slow down for you soon.

Wayne good luck on the job search. It sucks you have to do it, but could be a blessing in hiding.

I will be gone most of the day as I have a 3 hour drive after school. I will try and check in tonight.

Two officers of Italian police, left and right, and their Swiss colleague pose near a Lamborghini Gallardo of Italian traffic police 'Polizia stradale', which is told to be the world's fastest police car, at a highway rest area in Bellinzona, southern Switzerland, Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2009. The Lamborghini will be presented at an international police meeting in the Netherlands.

I wouldn't want to drive a police car like that. Where's the front bars for the PIT maneuver? You'd ruin an expensive car lol

Wayne, I know it's hard out there but best of luck to you!!!

'Space always glad to read your posts, they are great in the AM.

Everyone else, have a great chilly Friday. I'm trying to do a lot so I can leave early and get a jump start on the drive to my parents.

Morning All!

Sorry to hear that Wayne. Even if you knew it was coming, that still doesn't make it any better.

The so-called experts claim that the economy is slowly getting better. Hopefully you do find something that will pay the bills soon!

The last few days have not been pleasant for me. I injured my back many years ago. Most of the time, I know better than to do anything to aggrivate it. On monday I did some work that I now know I shouldn't have. I spent tuesday, wednesday, and thursday with a lot of back pain. I'm sorry, but I just wasn't in a mood to be on the computer. I spent most of my time in bed, taking extra strength tylenol, and trying to get the pain to go away. Feeling better today though.

I got a ton of stuff to catch up on here.
