Those are nice.........If i had the money, i'd buy this S60R that we have right now. It's a hot color/interior and it has the navigation that I want. This is the last yr since they're discontinued and won't be out again for another couple of years.

Unfortunately i'm at a job that just brings in money monthly, enough to pay the bills. In the meantime i'm still searching for a job that i'll be able to retire with and hopefully i'll be able to do that with the NJSP. I can't wait til PQT in August.

I like my field, it's a bit of a wake up call at first when you realize you have a deadline everyday and most of them you don't know about till 2 hrs before you have to turn in 2 days worth of work

It's hard to say something like that. I mean, given the opportunity to grow and move up in the company, sure. But nobody knows what direction the company will allow you to take 30, 20, 10, or even 5 years down the road.

Ahhhh i see, yea same thing with my school. Maybe if I familiarize myself with those programs I can start looking for another job in that field. :rick:

Doing an internship with a United Way Non-Profit. Doing web design for them.
Been working here 1.5 weeks.
I like it. People here are fun(Well, some). The office is in the YMCA and there are babysitting rooms all around so there are lots of crying kids.
My computer is kinda slow, but I'm getting another gig of ram today.
Its frusterating work, since I'm new at it and there are lots of problems.(Not all my fault)
