DAS Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I got sick of working in manual labor and dead end jobs so I'm going back to school. I took my placement tests and the lady at the desk said they rarely see scores that high. They want to enroll me in the honors section.

DAS Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 ^ Thank you so much. The way I see it is sticking it out in a class room for the next 4-8 years will be better than breaking my back and/or not making any decent money for the rest of my life. Anyone can learn if they put there mind to it. It's just a mater of perseverance imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MollyHendrix Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Got a call about a job interview toady and one yesterday. Yay!! Nobody wants a 15 year old working for them Listening to the birth of Led Zeppelin on the radio...even though I already knew it is always very exciting!

DAS Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Yay!! Nobody wants a 15 year old working for them When you turn 16 you'll be able to get a lot of entry level positions. They will REALLY suck but it's best to start getting experience as young as you can and you'll be able to get a job easier down the road and for more money.

JuliaFinch Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I finally did my guitar-washing: I used special products to clean the strings and the body, and I also managed to remove the pickguard myself to wash the whole of it. Wow, now it smells of lemon and shines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAS Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I found a job! I'll be making more money than I've ever made to start with three raises in the first two years and an amazing benefits program. Plus it's only ten minutes away from my place so I'll save a ton on gas money. I've finally upgraded to middle class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmie ray Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I found a job! I'll be making more money than I've ever made to start with three raises in the first two years and an amazing benefits program. Plus it's only ten minutes away from my place so I'll save a ton on gas money. I've finally upgraded to middle class. I worked for the same manufacturer, and got no raise over the last four years. One year with The State, and I got an instant promotion and all the OT I can deal with... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe (Liverpool) Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 This was yesterday but I was busy so I didn't post it. My wife and daughters went to Alton Towers so I had the house to myself (and the dog). So I listened to the remasters six album boxed set all the way through, It never ceases to amaze me just how good Led Zeppelin really were, a few hours well spent.

Strider Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I'm just wondering where he's been...somehow, I don't think it would've been a Buddhist retreat. I was just wondering that myself. Funny how you don't realize someone's been gone until they pop up again. It's the first Sunday of the month: record swap meet day. Time to hunt for some bootlegs.
