That's about all I can say. I had a follow up interview today for a job - who knows. I felt good about the initial interview, but the follow up was all about hypothetical situations, and/or what do you like/dislike about the field you work in, why did you chose this particular field, etc., etc., etc.
How do you really answer those questions without getting tripped up and saying the wrong thing? Do you lie just to have them hear what you think they want to hear to make you look good, or are you honest and try to explain certain things even though it's one of those "you had to be there" kind of thing?
You certainly don't want to lie; most experienced interviewers know when you are saying what you think they want to hear. I like very informal interviews. Try to think of an interview as a "chat"; not with your best friend; but with someone you just met at the airport. Be honest - why did you pick your field. Sometimes it is only because you like the earning potential and then found out you actually liked it - that is an honest answer.
Or maybe you are in this field because you're good at it; or because you feel you can make a difference.
Above all, relax.
Good luck!!

I believe the Navy freed them NOT the Pirates! GO US NAVY!!
You are right; I didn't say that very well.

We have ceramic tiles in the kitchen and baths. The grout makes it so hard to clean, it's cold and yes things shatter and if your dog drools and you slip and bust your butt, it hurts, especially if you have little ones... I like the way it looks, when it's clean, but I HATE cleaning it!
Since I hate cleaning, that is good to know. Thank you!!
-
Wow! Gotta say I was a bit worried about this guy! Thank God!
-
I have tile in my kitchen now. I really like it except if you accidently drop a dish it will shatter. And yes, it is cold. My last house we put wood laminate throughout, even in the kitchen. Loved it. I don't think we'd go back to vinyl in the kitchen again.
Thanks for your input. I just might do the laminate in the kitchen!
-
This weather is just insane. I, myself, am in the middle of my third "BAD" cold since early January. And kids just love to get sick on a holiday!!
Hang in there and no doubt they will attack their baskets with gusto soon; and it will be your sign they are feeling better.
Take care!!

I just got laminate wood in the rest of the house - time to do kitchen, laundry and master bath.
Tile seems "cold"; I might put vinyl in the laundry and master bath because I found one that I had at my last house and loved it!! Very high grade and did not show dirt; looked like Italian tile.
But what to do in the kitchen. Don't want to put vinyl there.
I have 4 dogs and 4 cats; how would tile hold up with animals?
I like the look of the laminate tile pattern but worry about the water possibilities in the kitchen.
Can I get some of your opinions? Y'all helped me decide on the laminate wood with the animals and I love it.
Thanks,

Well she did me on Saturday also - and I love it. She understands that just because I am a grandma, I like "new dos" and not that smooth football helmet stuff. And yes, she is also a nice person. Thank you, again.

filet mignon, country style bbq ribs, mashed potatoes mac and cheese, potatoe salad and garlic bread washed down with sweet tea
So what time did you say?? I'll even bring my chicken and trade ya!
-
I'm doing something with chicken but not sure what. Maybe just grilled chicken over salad. Not very inspirational, is it?

JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LMAO

That is good news. Glad your kitty is home and safe.
If mine stays out all night, she usually brings home a trophy - mouse, rat, snake, shrew, lizard. I yell and act all disgusted;and she smiles and trots in the back door and I am left to dispose of the trophy.

You can move the 'My assistant' anywhere on the page. The ads do not move.
I'll try that, thank you.
-
Do you mean after you click 'My assistant'?
Yes. I find that the best way to read my PMs is to go thru my email. I can't seem to make the ad banners stop.

Is there a way to make them go "to the rear"?
-
I hope you spot him again and able to find owner. did you call the Humane Society in case someone is missing their horse (uh, I mean, baby)?
-
If I recall, his first defense was that he only meant to rape her; and because she fought back, he was "forced" to kill her; like it was her own fault!

People who use nose spray publicly...loudly...while trying to figure out how nose spray in the first place.
(Yeah...that's a new one as of ten seconds ago
)Bad drivers in general.
Negative people.
Going to grab something in my kitchen, and there not being enough for one serving...
...or when I go to get coffee/tea somewhere where you serve yourself, and nobody has bothered to let the poor waitresses know that they drank the last of it. People making throaty noises.
Go ahead and add people making throaty noises *while* using nose spray.
Biggest one: Anything being in the floor at my apartment. It has a wide open floor, big walls with simple matching frames...very simple furniture and decor, all black. Think Ikea, minus the price tag. Somebody comes in and puts a bag/shoes/anything on my bar or in my floor and my OCD radar goes off.
OMG, you must be secretly related to my daughter! LOL! Question - do you ever go to someone else's house and put stuff on their counter???? She does!
-
I often wondered about that, too. Sometimes, it seems rude but at some salons I can tell they are just giving directions to one another so I am comfortable with the salon that I go to.
My other problem is that I do not have great hearing - so when someone speaks to me in a heavy accent - WITH a mask on their face - I can't always understand what they are asking. It is embarrassing to me when I have to ask them to repeat it more than once.
I have UGLY feet!! LOL!
-
I have two tips.
#1 - if you have any acting ability at all - "act" like a person who has a lot of confidence while speaking.
#2 - pick a spot above their heads (just barely above their heads), and talk to that spot with occasional looks to the left or to the right.
#3 - BE prepared, be sincere
#4 - Talk to them; don't speak AT them.
Good luck, you'll do great!

I have a friend that does this. She lives in Alpharetta. PM me if you want her number.
Too far away but gives me hope that there might be such a person

Well since you asked, Here's April's issue of "Pets Gone Wild"
Our first Pets Gone Wild Photo was sent in by Pedro. Pedro is 8 years old and he loves the Kitties! Pedro's favorite pastimes include licking Kitty hinies, peeing on random things, and scaring little children. Pedro is very active and loves to play ball (over and over and over) Pedro is looking for a life partner (either male or female) that will enjoy (endure) hours of being sniffed back there, and is not dumb as a rock. If you'd like to get in touch with Pedro, Maybe share your cheese with him, just let him know!
Here's a second shot of Pedro, just for the Ladies! Pedro wants everyone to know that it's not cool to be stuffed in a big old purse, but he'll consider it for the right amount of cheese!
Next up in this issue of 'Pets Gone Wild' is Snapper!! Snapper (aka Emo Kitty) is 7 and has spent the last 7 years of his life being sniffed up by Pedro. As you can imagine, this has left Snapper a little nervous around the doggies! Snapper's favorite pastimes are running away from Pedro, killing small animals and hiding them under the neighbor's porch, and begging kids to pull his tail. (I know, he has issues!) Snapper is a man (almost, he's actually neutered) about town and loves to visit the neighbors and pretend he's homeless. When not doing that, Snapper also enjoys staying under Pedro's gaydar!
Snapper is looking for a life partner who will groom his face, and not his bum, and is willing to go either way (Dog or Cat!) as long as you'll help him kill cute bunnies and squirrels! If you'd like to get in touch with Snapper, just kill something and throw it up on the porch!
Here's another photo of Snapper showing off his amazing talent... Sleeping. And oh yes, he's very limber too!
Next up, we have Fancy!! Fancy is the little old lady of the bunch at 9, but don't be fooled! She's still got it!! She's just trying to figure out what it is.... Fancy enjoys barking hysterically for no reason at all, begging for cookies and humoring her mother by trying to say 'encyclopedia' in doggie language. (Yep, more barking!) For fun and exercise, Fancy loves to sit out in the sun, bark randomly and stare off into space like a loon.
Fancy is looking for a Man(dog) who will join her in barking nonstop, and trying to figure out that crazy game of ball everyone is trying to teach her to play. If you'd like to get in touch with Fancy, just bark!
Here's a way sexy shot of Fancy (NSFW- cover the kid's eyes!). She's sooo hot for a belly rub! Doesn't it just make you want to take her home? No? It didn't work for me either but my Mom died and no one else would take her stupid dog...
This month's Centerfold is Grumpy Gretchen aka Tiger Lily, aka Skeeredy Cat aka Fraidy Cat!!! (Everyone has their own pet name for her, I just call her Satan) But, lets just call her Tiger for now.. Tiger is a little neurotic and we have no clue how old she is, but we are thinking 4ish. (A lady NEVER tells her age!)
After spending a year and half modeling in the nude (ok not really in the nude) in the adoption center at PetSmart, Tiger finally tricked someone into taking her home. (ME!) and promptly showed everyone how grateful she was by hissing, biting and generally freaking out whenever anyone got within a hundred miles of her. Since that 1st year, Tiger has mellowed a little and is ready for a man in her life.
Although she has spent the last year stalking Snapper, hoping that he'll aknowledge that she exists, Tiger is ready to move on and make room in her little black heart for a new love (victim). Tiger enjoys staring out the window with a look of pure terror on her face, running like her butt is on fire anytime someone gets near her, and scratching a escape route (hole) through the front door.
Don't you want to be her life-partner (victim)? If so, just let her know by totally ignoring her and not contacting her for any reason!!
Now, in this issue of 'Pets Gone Wild', we bring you the "The Girls Next Door"!!
First up is Heidi! Heidi is a gold dog of some sort and loves to shed!! Heidi's favorite past time is shedding all over the place, stealing Pedro's favorite tennis balls, stealing Pedro's favorite bones, and just generally torturing Pedro in general.(Well, according to Pedro anyway.)
Heidi is looking for a life mate that is smarter than her current mate Lola (who is dumber than a thumb tack and highly irritating!) Although Heidi is in a committed relationship with a female, she's willing to swing either way.. just PLEASE get her away from crazy Lola!!!
Our next "Girl Next Door" is LOLA!!! Holla! Lola loves running away, jumping on people, irritating the crap out of poor Heidi and getting punished for doing stupid things that seem brilliant only to her. For exercise Lola likes to run away, swimming in dirty mudholes, and jump on people in nice outfits. Lola is looking for a life partner who loves to exercise (ok, run away) and enjoys getting in the jacuzzi (ok, it's really a mudhole in the woods, but it's totally like a Jacuzzi when she's a little gassy).
If is that's you and you'd like to meet Lola, just let her know when and where, and she'll meet you there, next time her crazy owners make the mistake of opening the door!
Rounding out this issue of "Pets Gone Wild" we have our celebrity guest and her owner! Sarah Palin's wrap! We're not really sure what Sarah's wrap actually is, but it sure does look like alot of fun!! Sarah's wrap enjoys traveling, hugging Sarah's shoulders and just wants to LIVE!! (Please get me away from this crazy gun toting lady!) If you'd like to meet Sarah's wrap, you need to go to Alaska stat. But you better be careful or you just might meet Sarah's gun instead!!
This concludes this edition of "Pets Gone Wild" we hope found what you wanted ... pervs.
Umm.. Hi-jack over. Sorry couldn't resist. (edited to say, Sorry the pics are so big, I am new at pics.)

I really need to get this done! I usually keep a file folder going all year and each time I receive something that is tax related, I just add it to the folder. So it isn't like it is hard to get it going.
Maybe this weekend, I'll get my act together. I always get money back so the nice thing is that the government doesn't mind my delaying them having to part with MY money.
