I got an email this afternoon from a company I interviewed with waaaay back before I even lost my last job:

Hello LaDonna,
You interviewed with me here at XXXXXX XXXXXXXX a few months back and I wanted to check with you to see if you found a Graphics position or not. We will have an opening soon and I thought would inquire to see if you were available or still had an interest in doing Trade Show large format graphic design.

Dammit! This was slightly amusing yesterday what I got that phone message, but this is downright infuriating! So now that I've actually now have, all my past interviews are going to come out of the woodwork with offers of employment? Grrrrrrrr!

<sarcasm>OMG, I so didn't see this coming. I thought they'd be together forever.</sarcasm>

Yeah, right. I so saw this coming. Apparently, Britney Spears has filed for divorce from Kevin Federline. I wonder how many other women he plans to have kids with.

So, am I the only one glad that tomorrow is Election Day and the stupid political commercials and phone harassment will stop for a bit? Probably not. I have never been so disgusted by politics as I am right now. Let's face it. It's going to take more than changing which party is the majority to change the way things run. They're all corrupt. They're all liars. They all have their own best interests above that of their constituents. It's pathetic and all the screaming and name calling each side does towards the other solves nothing.

OK, I've seen a theme around at least a couple of wordpress blogs that looks like a manila file folder. I can't remember whether I saw it on a fellow postie's site or if it was on my Thursday Thirteen rounds this week. I'm kicking myself for not writing down where I saw it or bookmarking it. I'd really like to use it for my weight loss blog. If you know what the heck I'm talking about, could you point me to where it is? Thanks!

Hey, I got a job! I start tomorrow morning. Have you ever had to do a pre-employment drug screening? It's quite the process. The dude who's going to be my boss called it a whiz quiz. Never heard that term before and it made me giggle.

It's as a preflighter for a printing company. I'll start out part time. Hopefully it will become full time very soon. It'll come with full benefits after 90 days of full time employment. They kept stressing that it's not a design job. I'm quite well aware of that. I hating designing for other people. They take all the fun out of it.

The dude I interviewed with a month ago that never bothered to contact me called and left a message while I was in my interview today asking if I was still available. Nice timing, huh? I guess whomever he hired instead of me didn't work out. Oh, well. It was farther away and I think it paid less (I can't really remember).
