Thru my monster.com account I get e-mail updates about various job related things. Yesterday's was nice, apparently the job out-look for seasonal jobs is not looking very favorable. (Just what I needed to hear, since that was the next "target" for me)

This afternoon I went to an "open interview" session at a local video store. The young lady I "interviewed" with said they would be choosing candidates that they will be bringing back for Full interviews, by later on this evening.

Somehow I'm not surprised that my phone hasn't rung tonight. B@#t B%y says that I can't pass the personality test, and video stores paying $7.50/hr won't even bring me in for a "full" interview.

Anyone know how to get the state to pay me to clean I-75 with my toothbrush??

Speaking of which, I'm planning my upcoming move, A "duplex" at the intersection of I-475 and I-69, that way my son Ryan and I can each have our "own rooms", his under one underpass, and me under the other.

Yes, that last part was a joke, but it's getting REALLY difficult to find a sense of optimism.
