Beer-Thirty

Ah, honest beer. Beer bought by the sweat of my brow. So, so sweet, that there ale. :) Of course, it occurs to me, looking at that photo (fresh, helmet-friendly haircut!), that I'm looking less like the lovechild of Marty Feldman & Aunt Bea, and more like the old James Doohan ("Scotty") in my dotage... ;)

I'm looking for work for four people right now, believe it or not... for a guy who can't find a job, this may seem like a stretch, but just you watch -- I'll find all these guys work before I find it, myself, I bet (other than work I make for myself, that is). Then again... I talked to a guy who practically begged me to apply for a job at Asurion, a cell phone insurance/tech support firm near the Nashville Zoo. He works in claims, and said they sorely need people who know a little bit about tech stuff.

I'm happy.

Except... Coco's Internet pipe is clogged up. They use Bellsouth ADSL, and it looks like the problem is on Bellsouth's end. At 7:30, no one knows what to do about it, so, I'm heading home.

JP, you're starting to look like Stacy Keach. Have you ever thought it might be good to do placement? You'd be running your own business, and you could collect a commission from both the companies with whom you place workers and the workers whom you place. Headhunter Extraordinaire. Eh?

Sounds like lots of good things coming your way. Yay! Scritches to Curly, too!

ThePoliticalCat -- Placement... yeah! I have no formal training, but, hell... that's never stopped me from anything up to now. ;) I do like helping people, and few things could be more helpful and rewarding than matching people up with work that makes them happy, right?
