Well I think it's rather brazen of you to assume that I actually pay my bills. But I do get paid to run a social service agency for Native people that provides employment assistance services, low income housing, counseling services, children and teenage recreation programs, and a whole raft of other fun stuff that keeps me hopping.
It's probably not a great idea to tell an accountant you don't.:sneaky2:Quote:

My EDIT job is unbelievable, I'll try to sum it up by first telling you about the folks I work with:
First there is the supermodel wanna be chick. I'll give her credit she if pretty EDIT hot. But She's constantly fixing her hair or putting on make up. She is extremely self-centered and never considers the needs/want/desires of anyone but herself. She is as dumb as a box of rocks, I'm surprised she has enough brain power to continue to breath. She must EDITa mean EDIT, because the boss keeps her around.
The next chick is exactly the opposite. She is probably one of the smartest person on the planet. He career opportunities are endless, yet she is here with us. She is like a -10 on a scale of 1 to 10. I'm not sure she even showers, much less shaves her 'womanly' parts. I think she is a lesbian, every time we drive by a Home Depot she moans like she is EDIT her pants.
Finally and the jewel of the crowd is a EDIT stoner. I'm not talking like an occasional toker. This guy is baked before he comes to work, during work and I'm sure after work. I would doubt that he has been 'sober' in the last 10 years easily. And he's only 22. He dresses like a freakin' beatnik throwback from the 1960's. To make it worse he brings his big EDIT dog to work. Every EDIT day I have to look at this HUGE EDIT DOG!! This thing usually walks around about 1/2 stoned from the 2nd hand smoke. Hell, sometimes I even think its trying to talk with its constant bellowing. Both of them are constantly hungry, require multiple stops at McDonalds and Burger King.
Anyways, I drive these EDITtards around in my van and we solve mysteries and stuff.
I tried to clean it up. Remove if inappropriate. I work as a Registered Nurse - ICU.
You sure you're not a member of the Scooby Doo gang?:tongue_smilie:Quote:

I used to do woodwork to earn some extra $ but now school takes up most of my spare time. I get out into nature whenever I can, which is not as much as I would like these days. I guess that is why I like this forum so much. If I can't actually be out there doing the "wilderness thing" I can be mentally preparing for when I get the chance.
I've only had one creepy guy. He only acted up once. He still comes in to one of the spas' I work at. The owner knows if it happens again Iwill tell him to get lost.Quote:

None of them misbehaved. But after the appointment with Mr. Sketchy I realised my t-shirt had gotten hung up on the EDC knife I had in the back of my waistband and it was clearly visable! LOL!!!
He did seem very polite!!!!:innocent:
I love it. It is much better then the corporate job I had for 16 years. :(
Before the kids I was a Fleet Manager at a nationwide trucking company. Currently, domestic engineer. Ready to get back to work.
And I apologized, too. I didn't think we were going to talk about that anymore?!Quote:
