hahaha can't blame ya, dude...

on a side note...I"ve decided that aside from VERY minor/super cheap mods and obsessive maintenance...I am putting my truck on hold.

I've invested too much money and a lot of time into it. I'm not regretting it...it's been a fun project. I turned a landscaping truck into a fun little ride with very little cash to spare. Had some wicked times and made some GREAT friends along the way. But...it's low enough, it's fast enough, it's flashy enough, it's loud enough...and it turns enough heads. Time to spend $$$ on things like travelling ;)

I've always loved Euro girls. And here I find myself in Europe for 5 months. :D Although British girls for the most part aren't great. But there's tons of girls around here from all over Europe. I live with 3 people from Spain, 3 from Poland, and 2 from france. Spanish girls are the hottest by far. I've also met some really nice Czech and Norweigan girls.

Woot I got an interview for the Supervisory Development Position at work. It's a person who is trained to cover team leads when they're on vacay. It's a 1 year long position, so everyone cross their fingers that I get it :)

I just received a different position where I'm off the phones a few hours of my shift a day, now if I can get this one I'll be VERY happy.

WSODgirlracer 02-07-2006 08:05 PM

congrats ricki poo :)

saucywoman 02-08-2006 08:04 AM

thanks :)

Saucy, you're one of those crazy types who can manage to stay at that place for a real unhealthy amount of time... aren't you? :p congrats on the mini-promo and good luck on the big one, having a job where you aren't on the phones all day would be great at that place ^_^

saucywoman 02-08-2006 02:31 PM

^^ Barely. The only reason I'm still there is because I can't get a job at a law firm and I don't wanna quit, cause 1. I don't wanna make minimum wage or lose the benefits, 2. if I can make it until Sept then they have to pay my pension, and 3. most employers have heard about convergys so the longer I stay there the better it looks.

I figure since I'm still there why not try and move a little higher up so I won't be on the phones. I'm doing the duty position which is 6 months, and if I get this one it is a year long position. If I'm not on the phones I don't mind the place at all. It's only the callers that make me hate that place.

yeah i hear that, if i didnt literally have a break down at that place it would have been a decent place to stay while between jobs... i could have used the money for school thats for sure.. what kinda work are you lookin for in a law firm?

HyperREV 02-09-2006 12:01 AM

I would love to be a legal assistant, but since I don't think that will happen right away then whatever I can do to get my foot in the door. I would prefer something like word processing, but I'll take whatever I can get.

haha I wish it was that simple. For some fucked up reason I keep losing clutch pressure. Replaced the slave, thankfully it was fucked...and it was cool. now it's fucked again. I'm thinking maybe an air pocket, but it's been re-bled (apparently) and it's still no good. Everyone's saying master, but I can't see any clutch fluid on the inside or the outside of the firewall...so I dunno...all I know is that I don't have the money, time or patience for this shit *sigh*

one true way to test
go for a drive, come to a dead stop like you normally would, but hold your foot on the pedal where you stop, then see if you can push it down anymore, if it moves, the seal in your master is probably shot or going!

my old mechanic josie at avos motors taught me that

Have you been applying much since you finished school? My ex gf got a job as a legal secretary about 2 weeks after she finished the course at Kwantlen. And Justin told me the legal secretary course at Sprott Shaw (I think that's where you went) has almost a 100% employment rate after graduation.

hmmmm thanks...well at this point...if I come to a dead stop and push my foot straight to the floor on the clutch...then start revving the motor it'll actually start cleeping forward. The master is only 61 bucks (god I love my cheap-ass domestic) but I don't know how to bleed it alone hahaha...and I don't have the money to get a shop to do it.

bmwwheelman 02-10-2006 10:33 AM

find a friend, all you need to do is get someone to pump for you, and you can do the hard part
