yea true, i was thinking of the pda phone as an alternative... i could take down notes on their, then email them to me and print them... but we will see what they say and how much writing i will have to do...

dont be mixing up your their/there/they're during the interviews though.

ALL of my bosses/supervisors immediately throw away any resume's with any grammar or spelling errors.

haha good strategy, but i dunno if i would want to work there after pulling the descrimination card on themh:
i was thinking of asking for more pay as it is since they are offering 10 an hour. i want atleast $12 i have never really made any less than 12 as an admin. plus i would have to cross a toll bridge every time thats 4 bucks right there.
