Morning JJ, I can't believe they made you wait till today toget your last check...that is soooooooooo illegal according to labor laws. If you quit, they have 72 hours to get your last check. If they let you go, they are supposed to give you a check upon dismissal, 24 hours at the most. Whoever your employer was is so in the wrong for that!!! (unless things are different in OK)

Good morning everyone else too (those of you online right now!)...Justin, Todd, Lou, and Mike...Have a good day!

THings are still a little tight here at Casa de JJ. Hopefully things will get better soon. How are things in the Great White North eh?

Michael, i'm not complaining about my check being here today. They paid me a full check. The same amount as if though i had still been working ( go fiquer ). That really makes me think that there was some funny stuff going on . I dont care. I'm going to get my education and not have to worry about that crap anymore.

Life moves on.

Oh well in that case, I guess you can't complain to much (other than the fact that they totally let you go )...but that was cool that they paid you a full check for the last one!

I heard about that this morning on the radio...yet even though they have a recall, the radio broadcasters were sticking up for Toyota, saying oh well, they are still good cars. Kinda pisses me off, because if it was GM, you bet your butt we'd all be hearing about it, and everyone would start talking crap about American cars and that they are junk...Blah...blah...blah! Do you think they broadcasted that the 2006 Toyota Tundra 5.7L was literally having complete engine failure within the first 15,000 miles in many trucks??????? NOOOOOOOPPPPPEEE because it was "just" a new model thing...Again if that was GM, we would be hearing how "GM's newer car got worse" I can just picture the headline in the newspaper "GM still can't figure it out, new cars blowing engines at very low milage"

Anyway, end of rant...I do not support for foreign car at all...i don't think they are better in anyway compaired to an American car!
