  1. This is the one that's maybe 60 feet down the street from arby's, across the street from WI parkway. I think we're just gonna shell out the cash for a new tire, it's deflating too often, and the people are totally unfriendly and unhelpful.
  2. Personally, I think many degrees are realitically a waste of time, and the fact that many jobs require degrees that they dont' even use is ridiculous. Especially considering I barely learned anything useful while I was in college, except in my criminal justice classes. Everything else was recap.
  3. My fiancee had a relative look for two used tires for her car recently, and the two places in dallas I normally use didn't have any in stock. A relative of hers traded cars with her at work one day(she couldn't get off work, so she gave them the money, since they are unemployed and bored), and took it to the place near Arby's to get them to replace the two that were in bad shape. Since then we've had tons of issues with one of the tires, it keeps randomly going flat. There are no nails in it, and when we took it off to submerge it in water to try to find a leak, no air looked like it was comin
  4. Most of my friends can't find work with their degrees either. You really should look into the different careers other than animal control in criminal justice, there are tons that don't require alot of polite interaction. Also, private security loves people with 4 year criminal justice degrees. Target, home depot, or lowes would probably hire you in a heartbeat for 35k or up, and most of the time those jobs aren't very heavy on the interaction, it's more watching tape to figure out where items that are lost ended up.
  5. If I were you, I'd go ahead and get into law enforcement any way I could, and then keep applying for the job you really want. That way you'll have the experience on your resume to make your chances better. I thought I saw someone hiring animal control recently, either bartow or polk maybe?
  6. Two questions. First, what company is it? Some of us wouldn't mind sending in resumes lol. Also, why not go into probation? They make good money, and it's not a extremely hard job. Or if not probation, work for dfacs, they need people who are actually going to do their jobs.
  7. There is a way they can get around paying you, it has to do with offering training you need to be able to do your job, that otherwise you'd have to get on your own. I don't know the details, but I know my fiancee's work does this too, only their training is a few times a year on saturdays, and they don't get paid for any of it. Personally, I think it's bs, but I'd definetly push it with dept of labor.
  8. I really liked the first seasons, but recently, it's just gotten dumb.
  9. It's a good thing the parents didn't see that live, or she'd probably have been toast. That's insane.
  10. I had to use one, it was in Rome, but she does do it in Dallas sometimes. We both showed up, she was late, so we negotiated a bit before she showed up, and when she got there, we talked for a short bit, then she met with us individually, and we ended up working something out. She really didn't do much, I was pretty much ready to fold at that point, since I had a super liberal judge who ruled against me in everything, even when it seemed obvious my ex was in the wrong. And since it'd be going on for about 18 months at that point, and at some point you have to cut your losses and move on.
  11. Your best bet is to buy vitamins specifically for hair skin and nails. GNC carries them.
  12. No one cares about copyright laws anymore either. See the millions and millions of copied dvds, cds, and games that are used daily by probably at least half of the people under 50 in the US. Seriously, no one uses quotes and proper citations on message boards, or most anywhere on the internet. And even if people made a big deal about it, it's totally unenforceable. Actually, All you have to do to avoid plagarizing is mention somewhere that some of what you have written isn't yours. I've read books before where in the very back, in small print, it has one sentence saying some of the m
  13. not on a message board, because no one cares about plagarism on message boards.
  14. That sounds good. Is the recipe on their website?
  15. BBQ Chicken & Mac n' Cheese. Finally gonna get to try out the grill I got for Christmas.
  16. I went with a group to Congress and the White House, and I didn't give any info. Then again, I was with a group, so maybe whoever was in charge handed it over. This was before 9/11.
  17. She probably did. And even if she didn't, obviously she'd reported alot of problems with the child. Either way, the administrators there should have removed him, and didn't.
  18. No one without training on how to handle mentally ill children should be expected to be able to handle them consistently for a long period of time.
  19. This is very true. I know a kid who was like this (ex's brother) and he was continuously violent his entire life, until he ended up getting violently murdered by another young man with similar problems. He was in and out of treatment facilities once he became a teen, but it was a little too late then. No, the options, in a poorly run facility, are switch jobs, or stay at your job and hit kids until you get caught. Not hit kids and then go home. The fact of the matter is that most parents are in denial, and don't treat their children. And that most "treatment" especially public funded
  20. If their child is still acting like that, and they really and truly have tried everything they can, then that child needs to see a psychologist, and get some major treatment. I never gave a serious thought to hitting a child either, but my former coworkers sure did, after things like having (literally) crap thrown at them, being peed on, having hair pulled out, having their noses broken, or being severely bitten. Those children were so bad their parents couldn't handle them, which is why they were there. But even most of those kids, especially the non mentally ill ones, could have been handled
  21. Or to jail. But she probably though she could handle it, when obviously she couldn't. It would be interesting to know if the child hits less often now though.
  22. She probably did, but couldn't figure out an easy way to stop the kids without making it obvious that she was wrong.
  23. I'm sure she did wish she had done that. If the economy was better, maybe she would have, but she, like everyone else, probably knew she'd be unemployed, broke, and homeless if she just up and quit her job. After what happened, I doubt she wants to jump back into dealing with kids. She's probably sick to death of them
  24. If that's the case, the teacher should have had additional training on how to handle the child, and if the child was still acting out, and the teacher didn't feel they could control him, he shouldn't have been allowed around the other children, for their own safety.
  25. The facility shouldn't have taken the child if they didn't have the teachers trained on how to handle him. She had been at that job for years, and it's not a facility specifically for mentally ill children. The teacher absolutely was wrong in how she handled it, but honestly, so were the parents and the teachers supervisors for letting it get that bad. As someone who was worked around those kind of children, I totally understand it. But I see how someone who hasn't dealt with that sort of thing would not understand. I have two sons, and one of them does hit. And every time he hits, he
