well, i tried to go online to apply for job at kaiser permanente. they have you create a profile. page 2 asks for information on 'current' job. i haven't worked for 8 years, so i try and leave the page blank but it won't let me go to the next page because i have to complete every asterisked line, which was the entire page. so i put my last e.r. job, but it's bugging me. there must be other people who aren't currently working. i decide to go back to that page and see if there is some way to not have to fill it in or a place i can write in a note about it being my last job, but not a current one, etc. and it won't let me go back without my name and password. what password?!! there was no place to request a password, the online application just came up and i had done what i could on it. i tried my email and my name again, but it says i don't have the correct password! so now, i probably screwed up my chances of ever interviewing with them because it looks as if i put i was still working at a job i left years ago and i don't have a password! is God trying to tell me we can get by without my working? then she must be falling down laughing to see our FAFSA report which says we are responsible for the first $28,600 dollars of our son's education each year and then takes a gander at our checking and savings account--which has to have 50 bucks in it to stay open, but that's about it! sheesh! do you know what the gal told me last year when i called to see if that was a mistake or was 'for 4 years'? it was $27,000 plus last year...anyway, the gal said to me, "well, maybe you bought a house or a car or something along the way instead of saving money for your child's education." aaaaaaaargh!

Dear Tabbycybermom, Go back to the site tomorrow, with fresh eyes. Enter your name with your middle initial this time, and try again with a new password. Maybe there is a way around it. Good luck, Tabby. I think you either need to jump in the zen fountain with us or perhaps contemplate this zen ring from a comfortable position.
 And sending you:

News Flash- For those of you who weren’t aware of recent events, I got a call just over a month ago for a position I had applied to MONTHS ago, with the secret service and they wanted to interview me the next day- I go in and all they really talked about was that I might get bored by day one and that I was more than qualified yada yada yada – I tried to put that issue to rest and they said they would let me know in 2 weeks but it might be longer since it’s the government. Anyway speed up to exactly a month and a day after my interview and I get a phone call from personnel at noon today- saying I was selected and would I accept- of course I said YES! So now comes the 6 month wait while they do a background check- I should get an official letter next week with the offer and forms to fill out – and in the meantime I will still look for work (maybe a summer internship since that would be over right when the job starts) but bottom line is I got the job- its as an intelligence research assistant, working on threats and unfortunately that will be all I will be able to share with any one but I am excited and lets hope my background check is all clear – and I think even though its not as an attorney it’s a great opportunity to get experience in that type of work and it will be easier to apply for other jobs as an attorney within the govt in future years, so that is that.. and I just want to thank Tess, Ms Eggie, Rosie AND HP, (and all the others) that supported me in going after this position! Happy dance time

Legal: What do you want us to say when they call to do the background check? I'm sure you listed all of us here on your resume as references, right?

Legal, that is spectacular news!!! I know a number of people who work for the Secret Service, and they are extremely happy with their work. It's also a wonderful and interesting addition to your resume should you decide to seek legal practice in the future. WOO HOO!!!!
