Hi!

I did three years of I.T. type crap in the Army, and two in the civillian sector, right before the big dot com crash, and now when I talk to placement people and staffing agencies, I make it a point to mention that I am absolutely NOT looking for I.T. work, thank you very much.

It's great to see there's a whole bunch of us.

These days, I'm looking at an admin assistant position (I have an interview today, in fact), but my main goal is to go back to school and get a degree in mass communications, with the long term goal of getting an A.C.E. and doing video production (read: my REAL dream is to do special effects in Hollywood, but let's be realistic, here).

Anyway, I'm not a big fan of "I'm new here" threads, but this place looks to be pretty new, so why not?

I have invited a few people so far, and probably more by the end of the week. I am here due to dk533. He and I left the same place of business with largely disgruntled dispositions. Oh the joy of hearing the HR manager that walked you out and the CEO were both let go due to unscrupulous activities.

I wonder when we will get the 12 step program going in here??

Behold another of my referrals. Do I get like award points, or Delta Sky miles or something for referring people??

BratWurst and I work together. He is as disgruntled as I am.

You know that sky miles are worth maybe the cost of the paper they are printed on?

Hey ... you remembered that one!! Cool...

But back to the topic... I'm sure that there are a lot of us out there that need this place to wind down a little bit.. Just give it a while and this forum could very well become the largest one on the face of the planet.

Maybe next to the Britney Spears forum... Great place to pick up chicks..

I have just lost all respect for you as a human being.
