    Ugh. This is the worst hangover ever. I'm so not in the mood for free museum Tuesday. I want to die.

    I had nothing to do today, so we went out Monday night and I got carried away. Horrible idea.

    This reminds me of being little. I love that it can be used in a loving or snarky way. Lol

    DTTAM: While I was at the store yesterday I over heard a child (maybe 3 or 4th) say "It's Jesus's birthday tomorrow, right" and the mom said "yes, no no it's America's birthday". Love my 70yr old Mother who politely turned to her (the mother) and said "Would you like to try that again". Lady didn't get it.

    We have a fire ban because half our state is on fire. It's so dark and quiet out. Every year I complain about the rednecks that stay up all night blowing shit up. This year I kinda miss those bastards

    I celebrated the farce of a holiday (seriously, I despise insincere patriotic platitudes) by watching revisionist history: Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Slayer. The book sucked but the movie was awesome.

    Edited to add: I'm not patriotic.

    People trying to talk to me. Its annoying the shit out of me and I dont know why. Im usually friendly! Honest! This whole week I've been a super d-bag for little to no reason. I hate you Kory, quit it.

    Also, when I buy chips and all the delicious flavor dust is unevenly distributed amongst the contents. Irksome.

    Job hunting is hard enough without trying to avoid all of the ridiculous scams and life insurance people out there.

    Me: Uhm. No thanks, I want to stay in my industry.
    Schmuck: But you have great phone presence. Are you SURE you don't want to make $100,000.00/hour in a call center?
    Me: Fuck off.

    This. Exactly. And all this job hunting is so impersonal anymore. Used to be you had to go and meet people when you applied for a job. Now you get some random email or text saying "Hey, we'd love to see you on Feb. 30, you have all the qualifications we need in a peeon! Oh, and BTW, you are up against 33 other unemployed schmucks that we will probably end up hiring instead of you."
    Don't like what I have to say? I respect that. Now go fuck yourself.

    Ugh. It's the worst. It seems much easier to apply, but then it's not. The application is still time consuming. Also many places, like hospitals, often hire from within/recommendations, but are still required to "post the job" so the person they're hiring can officially apply, then people like me waste my time. I've also heard that if your resume isn't written just so it won't make it through the computerized filter. As a result, you don't even make it to the call back pile. Blech.

    I posted to Monster and got a call from American Income Life Insurance. I'm like whut? That's way out of my field. So I took to the Googles. No thank you. Sneaky basterds.

    I hate that! We are lucky, if we want to hire from on campus we can list the job as a "promotional, for current employees only." and don't have to go through the hassle of outside aps. That's enough of a pita when you don't already have someone in mind.

    once, i was kinda recruited during a training at the county office of AIDS. the trainer pulled me aside and told me that if i EVER wanted to come work in the county testing program, she'd hire me in an instant. then came the computerized filter. you had to literally plagiarizer the job description announcement in your resume to get it seen by an actual human. i'm talking word for word. then you wait 6 months to find out they can't offer an interview because you didn't submit a copy of the 1 certification the county has not yet sent to you on account of they are 2 years behind on issuing the actual paperwork. this process blows.


    well, ok! but let's see what happens when i do...... this!
