We found my husband jacket. I couldn’t remember if he had it at the clinic, and my friend said she recalled him wearing it at the clinic. Today we got a package from one of our reveiwable things. Yippie I can’t wait to see what new games we get to play. Okay I like gaming expecially when I get stuck on homework or when I just get home from work and need to give my brain a little of relaxation time to think of nothing.
I better call my friend and tell her that he found his jacket. I stopped by management and one of our guys told me we have your husband jacket. I was like are you kidding me. This honestly was the last place and honest I didn’t even think about the office here. I would have never guessed it niether would my husband have. Good thing I went down there to pick up a package but it would have been nice to at least recieve a call hey we have your jacket. It’s not like it’s tea light candles which are great, but still not needed right away this time of year. It’s a jacket in in Minnesota it does get a little cold toward the end of October, well now hubby gots 2 jackets. Maybe before stopping on Saturday we should have checked with management but you know I forgot all about him having his jack over his arm not on him. Oh well, 2 jackets is good and now I don’t have to hurry up and net him his scraff. Now I can take my time and unthread it if I really wanted to but I think I am far enough that unthreading it would be more of a pain in the nick then good. I wonder what we got in our package, I don’t open them I let him open them, with me.

Last week I had a interview. The night before I had to go to a informational meeting about the company. I decided this job wouldn’t work out for me after intervieing because I just think it be to much pressure it would be 100% commission and 5-6 months of training grant it during that time I would be earning money. The interviewer wanted to fast track me to regional management I believe it was, but after talking about the position I started worrying that I would end up with the potential of really getting into financial trouble.
Pretty much what it is was a loan on commission, which is never a good thing. If I where to flop it wouldn’t be me paying but my manager, the one over me. If I were to get to that point then it could be me having to suck up the cost of someone else mistakes. I am not sure I like that idea, I will think about it if nothing else opens I might have to work very hard at it and pray no one gets raid of their services.
Well I went to the meeting, and they started it a few minutes late. Ever notice, that it’s okay for a interviewer to run late, or for these companies to start things late, but heaven forbid you run late to their interview. I always run 10 to 20 minutes early, it’s a pain when they run 10 to 20 minutes late, that means I have sat there doing nothing when I could have been using that time for homework or something else which needs to get done. Don’t get me wrong I am not mad, I just think it funny that they stress being early and they themselves are late.
One thing I will do if I ever sit up meeting is make sure I can be on time, and if not place a call to the person to come in a little later. I understand getting caught up with something or other appointments running later then you expected and sometimes that just happens. Running a business is hard and that’s probably the main reason they are running late. I often get asked did you have any problems finding us, usaully I do not have problems. My favorite one is were are you coming from, when I tell them if they on the other side of the metro how they ask if it’s to far. Woodbury is about a good 25 minutes with out traffic and a good 45 minutes with traffic, it’s not hard to get to but when I do interviews I often get asked if it’s to far away. Now I will not work in lets say Stillwater because it the other way North and East and would take me to long to make it out there during rush hour.
I really hope this work at home job comes through for me, because it be nice to be able to work at home and cut out the travel time, and not have to count that into my schedule. Travel time seems to be the most tiring and draining of all activities I do. I love driving for the most but it gets taxing during rush hours. I know I need a job, gotta get supplies and cover living expenses which is hard to do. I might need to get outdoor furniture covers for my plants.

Someone has inserted my cat with a bunch of quarters he been so hyper lately. I wish I had his engery to day. He woke me up at 5am wanting to play, then he wanted lift alone. Good I can go back to sleep, then he started running around the apartment around 9am. Didn’t want nothing to do with me while I was sitting with no homework in my lap. I figure get my homework done first and start looking for a new job. I might have a job but I don’t know yet, waiting to find out if it coming through or not I hope it does because it will be a work at home type job. I would do well with it too, it wouldn’t be to hard even through it require a little of learning how to do it, but I am sure learning the tasks at hand won’t be to difficult considering I am almost done with my degree and having computer intellegences..
I got my laptop booted up to start on my homework, I had 3 discussion questions and to finish my part of the learning team assignment. Otis was laying in the blue round seat, we got when we first moved in, used to be hubby favorite seat. I like the seat but it’s a little uncomfortable not like nice theater seating. No sooner then I got my computer in my lap otis was meowing.
I called him over he came and I went to pet him. He ran to his scratching post, and tore through the living room to the bedroom back out and almost slamped into the window. A couple minutes go by and he back at meowing by the office door and master bedroom. The doors open so I know he can get to his place. After about 10 minutes I got tired of him meowing.. So I went to go get him and did the run through out the entire house and into the bedroom. I picked him up, he right away did the paws around the nick and did the hug thing. Otis is a strong cat, I don’t think it has anything to do with he’s 20 pounds but onces he found the hug position he don’t like to give it up.
I sat down with him and pulled my laptop back up. I am going to get done with everything one way or another. Otis after 5 minutes wanted down, huh you think I going to let you go. I kept him until I only had a paragraph lift to go on my paper, don’t worry it only took me a half hour to type it up. Could have been worst and been an over 1000 word assignment. I got my paper done, and responded to my DQs, and looked on the sites for jobs and still haven’t found anything very promising other then that one lead.
