Lost my job... what a great way to start the day
hey stinky. just saw/read this thread and my thoughts are mutual with the others. With all the knowledge you possess, I know your new job will present itself soon. But like you said, "I want to take this time to end projects that have seemed never-ending, and tie up loose ends in my lifestyle. I want my calendar to be less cluttered" this would be a perfect opportunity to take a break from an actual job and get things finished! That greenhouse is being very neglected lol. If all else fails, you apply for unemployment and relax for a few months growing with extra tlc and getting all the shit that's piled up done and over with :thumbsup:
My mother had a similar situation and was without work for 7 months, but she has no masters or resume that comes close to your's. She's happy at her new job now and never looked better really. SO keep that head up, keep your eyes open. Things will be well again shortly. No worries beautiful. I'm not a faithful man but if he's up there, God Speed :)
mgm :jointsmile:

Aww Stinky I think I know how you feel a little bit.. I didnt have a good job and I dont have any of the job-experience that you have and I wish I had, but I lost my job a few months ago then my friend got me kicked out of the place I was living at. All of my stuff, my clothes, all my important documents needed to get a job, every sentimental thing that meant the world to me was either sold or trashed by the crazy lady whos house I was staying at. I was lucky it was still warm when I was living out of my car for a month or two :P But I finally got enough of a job for a few months working out of state to get me a bit caught up. Then as soon as I came back to Columbus, I crashed my car on a wonderful patch of black ice hahaha serendipity eh? At least I have a place to stay, but I hear ya on that damned Craigslist! Every damn job I want and would probably be successful as hell at requires experience I can't prove that I have. My saving grace is that I don't have a mortgage or car payments to worry about (and now I dont even have to worry about insurance haha :P) so that is why my situation isnt so bad. But finding a job is a pain in the ass!
Oddly enough, your resume would get you about every job I wanted here in C-bus :P. Oh well.. I have faith in ya! Good luck and kick ass!

Yeah I've been a mess. I killed the interview and have another tomorrow. I expect an offer by the end of the week, but that it will be low, as it IS in agriculture. Oh well, at least it's a job in these hard times. Now about that pre-employment drug screen I have to take... *sigh...

Here's a pre-employment trick I've used, maybe it will help. Hide clean urine in bottle, cover with big wad of kleenex. As you are entering lab cough and snot on the big wad of kleenex alot. No one has ever asked me to hand them the wad of tissues........:)

You must be new to the boards. We have a drug testing section. You should read the substitution sticky. ;) If you don't have any clean friends, and I doubt you do :D, then buy some QF. I'm sure your attic brings 'em to the good side. If not they're probably depriving themselves. Be something like being good friends with the CEO of Mercedes Benz and turn him down his offer to use the SL for the weekend.

Yeah FBR, I was planning to sub. I don't have any clean friends- ANY, lol- except one guy on probation who takes an antispasmodic that would raise a flag. So I may be asking my dad for a sample, or buying that whizzinator packaged stuff.
My second interview was yesterday and I am expecting a formal offer Monday. Woo hoo! Gonna be a farmer again, baby!

the whizzinator is discontinued due to a lawsuit but if you or someone you know owns one or you can get one on ebay your golden =D

Linear in Stinksters case I doubt she would want to be using the Whizzinator at all.
