I'm fired!

I am for sure joking about the firing, but I work under a female Department Head, and a female Mayor, both of whom I am sure would find the avatar personally offensive, or at least racy enough as to consitutute my inability to use good judgement when using the company internet.

Jar. Whaddayasay? It is hard to be a World Leader under these circumstances of actually being a mere employee.
 
A well deserved desire and these days of correctness, maybe worth further exploration. It's the holidays and lets try to remember why we all came here to share.
 
Jar, Personally I loved it and saved it. Some may take offense to the "Diver Down" but heck your site is still the best. Merry Chistmas and keep up the great work...thanks!
 
Yep, resigned and moved from Montana back to the Pacific Northwest to be closer to my aging mother, and also my kids. God has been guiding and blessing in the all these events. It's amazing to me just how things have happened. The day after I resigned I applied for a job in Oregon. They called for more info in 3 days, and then called to schedule an interview one less than 1 week! I felt the interview went "ok" and was not my best, but they called for a second interview the following week. After that interview, I was called with a phone offer. Of course I said, yes! (Given that Sandy is the size and type of town I enjoy, and close to my mother in Stevenson, WA, and my kids in Bend OR -- yep, WAY closer than Great Falls, Montana!)

Today I was given a written job offer to replace the Sandy Building Official when he retires next month. I start January 1Oth. (Didn't want to spill the beans until the offer was in writing.)

So when I start, I will have to give balance to your topic and post: I'M HIRED!

:^ )
 
Terre,

Good to see your back home; my friend. Looked at the city website; what a beautiful place.

Uncle Bob
 
Thanks, Bob. It does feel good to be back among friends and familiar places. (And it's nice to have more time to check this board! I was putting way too many hours in GF and don't have much time to monitor this site.)
 
Congratulations Terre!

Let's give praise and thanks where it is truly due...to the Lord Jesus Christ!

I ain't skeered to admit I am a Christian-work-in-progress. :D

You are where you are supposed to be, ...back around your family! We

look forward to you visiting on here more too!

Wow! What a true Christ-mas gift!

.
 
I am full of gratitude! Our jobs and lives usually touch much more than just where we work! I am encouraged to see all the good will expressed on this board. I would ask that you all would please remember to keep Bryan's Florida job, and Paul's family (and legal situation) in our thoughts and prayers this Christmas season. May much more good happen!!

May Christmas Blessings and a Wonder-Full New Year come to each of you!
