Nah I can drive. But that's not the kind of job that I want.

Didn't you have a job at a pizza joint. What happened to that job? Next summer try getting a job at the seed corn companies detasselling it pays well if you don't mind actually working.

DH said detasseling was the worst job he had. He helped us small bale a couple times and claims detasseling was worse. IDK if I believe that but it definitely didn't sound like a job for lazy/whiny people.

Wasn't feeling 100% but came to work anyway. Not sure that was the best decision.

I survived detasseling, it wasn't too bad. My nephew will do it when he is available, and he is pretty lazy. ;)

So today is school picture day (which I hate--too much stress). Anyway I was giving my 10yr old options for what to wear. I thought this shirt would be good, until I realized the Eiffle Tower would get cut off in the pic. No bueno. 14418925341831432896354.jpg

(Sorry if pic is sideways, you get the idea . . . )

Heh...good catch, Birdy.

Mrs 00 had a mini-birdy schedule last night. Had soccer practice for little00 at 5:30, and she gets home from work and picking up kids at about 5:15, so her schedule went: Pick up kids. Run home (because little00 had to poop, but didn't want to poop at daycare :rolleyes:), run to Casey's for subs, go to soccer practice, her and littlest00 ate at practice, come home where little00 ate while she got littlest00 ready for bed. Read to littlest00 and put him down, sit for a bit, then repeat the process with little00.

Hell no. Even tho they make $8.50 an hour. I'll never work at McDicks.

Just a casual observation: people with few marketable skills can't afford to be too picky. $8.50 is better than $0...but aside from that, my suggestion was total snark given your discussion of McDonald's a couple of weeks ago.
