God Polly, I don't even have time to get my eyebrows waxed. You are like Hermoine when she took all those classes at the same time. You are like Mother Theresa with children. Or DID Mother Theresa have children? you GO Girl. You should go on Oprah.

I expect to be bombarded -- or at the very least, banished from the main board. Just posted a scathing HAIRPSRAY review over there. Saw the movie tonight and hated it. Just hated it. I don't get all the praise. Couldn't wait to run out of the theater. Funny thing: I chuckled during the opening shot (as the clouds parted to reveal Baltimore) when I half-expected a voiceover chorus of, "The Turnblads."

I'm with you Stagey. While I enjoyed the cast more than you did, I was very underwhelmed with the whole thing.

wizard, I wish I had your forgiving heart.

Good morning all. Another Monday in a summer town. *sigh*

Morning all,

I have just returned from the airport and I have landed safe and sound. It is good to be back on the east coast. Now I am off to sleep because I am wiped (I only slept an hour and a half on the plane). This will totally screw up my sleep schedule even more, but whatever.

morning dears! Akiva I am glad you are home safe and sound.

Ivan- ummm, no Mother Teresa didn't have children. She was a nun remember. My oldest (the 18 year old) just asked me yesterday to start helping him study on his days off. He wants to do well on the college placement tests

Morning lovies! I'm off to get my braces tightened (blah) but just wanted to say hi!


See ya later! There's a coffee place down the street from my orthodontist...woo hoo!

dress nice, be polite, remember to say sir or ma'am. be honest (if you are unqualified for the job say so, if you get the job and then can't do it, you look worse than if you just said i don't know how to do that)

Try to bribe the interviewer with chocalate chip cookies.

jk. Try to appear happy and enthusiastic. I think you'll do just fine.

Eye contact is key, and speak firmly and with conviction. Answer the questions like you know what you're talking about. :)

Morning kids!! Good HEAVENS, am I wet!!

[Ivan the Wonderful]

Posted: 7/23/07 at 9:26am

Good AM. Polly I knew that about Mother Theresa, it was a joke.
Soapy, be up front and make sure they know you don't do toilets.

What kind of job is it?
Polly how are you ever going to help you kid study with everything else you have going on. Isn't there a study group or something? I am not saying you shouldn't help him, but you have to make sure that everything else in your life dosn't suffer. And by that I mean your commitment to this thread. LOL

ps, no Harry Potter talk. I am still not done with it.

The first one is typical fast food.

The second one is assisted living for the elderly. (Non-medical care, which mean I basically cook for them, clean up after them. And hand them the remote. But, it fits with what I'm majoring in.)

[Ivan the Wonderful]

Posted: 7/23/07 at 9:30am

Then never mind about the toilets. In both jobs you will be cleaning up crap. At least at the Burger King you will have a better chance of it actually being in the tiolet. LOL

[soapguy17]

Posted: 7/23/07 at 9:32am

Ha Ha. Hopefully, I can add the part about not cleaning toilets after college.

[polly2]

Posted: 7/23/07 at 9:34am

well, i'll work it in Ivan, no worries :) He works so it's only like 2 days a week that he wants me to help him study and even then, he's IS 18, I can just tell show him how to do a math problem and then set him down with the book to do them. It's not like he's 5 and has ADD :) (been there, done that. one of my other kids has ADD)

[Ivan the Wonderful]

As long as he does not take away from your internet time that will be ok. When he gets the math thing figured out can you send him here to help me balance my check book?

[polly2]

Posted: 7/23/07 at 10:42am

lol he could do that now

Posted: 7/23/07 at 11:04am

Back...I brought coffee for everyone!

*hands out the coffee*
