Escapee is more than qualified for the position. I know. I read the job description and her cover letter. Her current manager already told her she was proud of her. She's just feeling a wee bit insecure, which is totally normal. Review aside, Escapee knows she can do this job, and do it well. She believed in herself last week. She just needs to regain her confidence before she goes in and interviews on Friday. Hence the smack upside the head.

I agree with Ruthie, your thoughts create your destiny. Say a prayer to help you give the best possible interview. Go in there with confidence. If it is meant to be it will be, if not then something better will come along.

i'm being corrected for my 22 yrs of experience. IF someone is ready for the responsibility, they usually dont second guess (in my experience) however, since people are taking this personally instead of it being my observances in life, I'll refrain from further comments on the topic.

Escapee, you seem like a very intelligent and capable woman and I'm sure that if you didn't feel that you were able to do the job well you wouldn't apply for it. I'll be sending up positive vibes for you and keeping my fingers crossed!

Sunshyne, it sounds like you had a high-pressure job and that you were very good at it. You have a long work career with a solid history of being able to take the pressure. I wish back when I worked in an office that I had the self-confidence that you seem to have. Your observations about the workplace are just as relevant--if not more so--than anyone else's here. Good luck tomorrow in the interview, Escapee. Positive vibes that you'll feel confident and WOW the interviewer!

update on animal smell in Bill's car. It is almost gone! since he got ill we hadnt done anything to it yet. It rained and I guess from driving in the rain and puddles it acted like an undercarriage wash and cleared it up!! Go figure! and ya know now I am a little suspious that the animal story was one big cover up. I always accuse Bill of having something that crawled up him and died when he farts.

Thanks Costa. I am so nervous and the interview is with 2 girls I've worked with for almost 6 years now. Of course, I am starting with a head cold and am congested and sound like crap. Of course I woke up late, hair only have 'done', but I made it here on time.....of course. It's casual friday, but did I wear jeans? Nooooo, I am wearing black slacks, heels, and a button down shirt with our logo on it. I'm ready, I can do this. I'm ready, I can do this.

Good luck, Escapee! Wish you were wearing some of Mocha's ass kicking boots. Heels sound like a good alternative. I hope they are pointy heels. Either way, I know you shall get the job.

While the interview went well, I do think it may be a touch over my head in regards to what the position would entail. I'd really have to step up my game, and that would mean less TVCH time, LOL. We'll see. I haven't actually decided what to do yet if offered. Gah. We'll see.

No, just the one. They already know my strengths and weaknesses. I told them that if they thought I was right for hte job, that I trusted their judgement and if they felt that the timing wasn't right for me in my experience and education that I would look forward to future opportunities. They were impressed by that.

Has anybody been to Blockbuster video lately? Does it cost the same to rent regular DVD as it does Blu-Ray?

The blockbusters here in my town shut down. I hated Blockbuster. I went to return a movie at 12:15 once and I was charged a damn late fee for it not being that at 12, even though they guy was JUST THEN getting the movies out of the bin. He said to me "If that's due back today it's late." I though, no it's only late if I pay the late fee, which I didn't and I never went back.

Question: is there a way to transfer something I record on my DVR onto DVD? Like with my computer cuz I don't have a DVD burner as part of my home entertainment system? Do I just hook up my computer to the DVR? Any advice will be appreciated.
