Jay Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Yeah, MS and BS in mechanical. The classes weren't too bad. Actually the last part of calculus I thought was the hardest. Statics was easy. Thermodynamics isn't too bad. I've just hated the jobs (Toyota, LA National Lab) and have had some horrible advisors in my MS and PhD. Maybe just bad luck. Twilight Zone bad luck. I don't know. I've applied to become a fireman which about sums it up for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaSiren Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Oh Hun, I'm so sorry you have to go through that. Are you sure you aren't related to me, the whole, if wasn't for bad luck....well you know. Nothing is EVER easy, although it should be. That's why I don't play lotto or gamble. Anyway, I hope it works itself out soon. Hehe, you a felon....yeah right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 That really sucks. Interesting that it happened in Florida. That's where they mistakenly identified 90,000 voters as felons who shouldn't be allowed to vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaSiren Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 (edited) In the letter the state sent me it said I would be arrested if I set foot on school grounds... How awful! Edited January 8, 2006 by SeaSiren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FormicaLinoleum Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Wow, that really sucks! It must be so maddening that someone could have made this kind of error and that it's messing up your job chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where they mistakenly identified 90,000 voters as felons who shouldn't be allowed to vote. My first thought as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 If it's any consolation, and I don't mean to push my faith or beliefs on you or anyone for that matter, l would take this to mean that you were not expected or should not have expected to get that job. Something could have been very wrong or could have become wrong OR perhaps there is something better just around the corner. When bizarre things happen like this, it's usually for a reason. And at the very least this mistake was uncovered now. Stay positive and the right position will come along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh my god was it bad now that I look back at it!! But I love my mom very much and A+ for effort ma Ohhhhh, I LOVE Halloween! My fave holiday!! My mom made me some kick butt costumes. I probably won more costume contests than any kid! Since then, I've made quite a few myself. I have a trunk full of costumes. And even more ideas for costumes!

Phoenix Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Sorry willpeavy, we're off topic..... It's CrispyQ's fault Hey CrispyQ have you got any photos of you as a kid at halloween? Hey wait a minute, you could be a kid right now Well, anyway, do you have any photos you want to share. I'll try to get a hold of mine. It will take some time but the laugh factor will be worth it. Are you a kid or not??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrispyQ Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 I'm a kid at heart but my body betrays me! Best costumes: Indian princess -- except the kids teased me cuz I have blue eyes. Blood dripping Dracula -- lots of fun Ragdoll -- my least favorite costume Bumble bee -- I loved the wings & used them with another costume when I was older. Caveman kid -- loved this cuz I got to smear dirt on my face! Sea fairy -- beautiful costume, but I lost track of this one. Hippie with the coolest tye dye shirt & a super cool peace sign necklace. This was my mothers least favorite costume. She hated it, which of course, led me to LOVE it! As an adult, my fave costume has been my Sam I Am. I have a rockin' paper mache Green Eggs & Ham. The ham is so absolutely fantastic, with a little fork sticking out of it. Whenever I wear this costume, people always comment on what a great costume it is. I think it brings out the kid in everyone. Unfortunately, no photos. We were not a photo taking family. If grandma wasn't there, there were no photos. But please, share yours!!! I love Halloween costumes & seeing photos of others always generates good ideas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
