Aliasalpha: Well I just had the best job interview of my life, reckon I might have a good chance at this cancer centre IT manager job. They laughed when I wanted them to, they were impressed that I spotted a flaw as soon as I looked at their comms cabinet (a single layer 2 switch for the whole facility?? Its called redundancy people!), they liked the fact I was willing to be there for the long haul rather than get trained then move somewhere else and the wildcard of my mum & sister having been patients might be the thing that tips the scales in my favour.

Awesomeness mate, you need it especially after your last few boards...

I do IT in health care too. It definitely takes a certain mindset. Having good people around you helps a lot too. If you get the job, it sounds like you'll be lightening somebody else's day since you sound like a good person to work with! Good luck with the job hunt!
In a week I will have a college degree. After that, hopefully a career.

Seems like an odd time to be graduating, does your college do 3 semesters a year?
Good stuff though, whats your degree in?

Thanks, I've definitely got higher hopes for this one, they're still asking me for more information so I've not been excluded so far...

School starts tomorrow. I'm nervous, because all my classes are brutal. How did I get into honors and astronomy?

The question is why isn't your ass in ROTC?! I am in it and it is fucking awesome (We are the best in the state...That, and since this is a pretty trashy school we get a lot of awards in the MARKSMANSHIP category.)! First football game to run on Friday and am already plotting how to get gf to go...I'm a sick person...=)
ROTC?
Today was a good day! First the GOG anniversary news and then my PS3 and new pirate hat both arrived in the mail when I got home.
I'm going to celebrate with a plate of nachos because I'm sick of cake now.

ovoon: ROTC?

Return of the Jed--I mean Children
Anyway like ovoon, I am on my way to getting an Economics/Law degree...well at least I am on the first stepping stone, which is to get the modules I need. The problem now lies with whether I can have a consistent CAP score, above 4.0 =\
Hey no one said that when optimism knocks on your front door, pessimism can't rear its ugly head too.
Whats a CAP score? Like an average mark?
ROTC....Awesome program, hard for someone with a GPA above 4.0.....Like me!
Whats a GPA? Noone's ever explained it to me but apparently I have 4.82. Is there a prize when you get to 10?
