Default At least I have more time to detect...?

Got to my week-old job this morning at 5am, only to be told my badge had been deactivated and that I had been let go.

So now I guess I have more time to dig silver.

Man I know how you feel portraitartist, After being at my job for 9 years I was just recently let go because I forget to run a pitcher of water down the drain!!!! In my opinion it was total B.S!!!!!!

So I thought the same way, after working 70 hrs a week for nearly 2 years (with no vacation either!) that I would be able to get out and do some digging!! Well mother nature hasnt been too co-operative up here in New England.

Hopefully you will be able to get out!

Default What a difference a day makes!

So, yesterday, both me AND my girflriend lost our jobs (we worked at the same place)... this morning, she was offered a position at the newspaper, AND, I got a call from a temp-to-hire place that I'm pretty certain will end up with me working for someone!

So, after I'm done eating, I'm goin' huntin'! Not wasting this lucky day! No telling what I'm gonna find!
