The Four-Year Itch in Business JoeUser Forums

Four years after graduating with my associates degree I’m still not making what an entry level bookkeeper should. I’ve stuck it out in this job mostly because I don’t know what else is out there and I don’t want to become a victim of not knowing what I had until it was gone. I know that I’m making ok money for the area where I live. I know that I am getting by ever

Reply to Bad, bad, bad haircut. in Misc JoeUser Forums

awww! I hate the feeling of a bad haircut. I mean, it's not the end of the world, but it's still disappointing. You always go in with such hope and anticipation and when your expectations aren't met it's a letdown. I used to have short short short hair, I always heard it called a wedge. I don't know if that's similar to a pixie or not. I finally got tired of it, because short hair is such high maintenance (at least it was for me, had to

where can i get one of those (the throne...not your son)? I got it at Walmart. They had so many different kinds of chairs that I had a hard time picking one. I thought I'd go in there and get one and be done with it. Not so. Sometimes I think people have too many choices now-a-days. I mean, reall

Mis-managed Micro-Managers in Work JoeUser Forums

I hate asking my boss any kind of question. Like, “Should I add so-and-so to the website as a contact?” Because he turns a simple question into a huge project. “Call everybody and ask who they’d like listed as contacts for their company.” We have 71 companies in our network. When a company comes online they are asked then who to list as a contact. *sigh* <B

Piss Off! in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

My little guy went pee-pee in the potty for the first time yesterday!!! I was changing his diaper and noticed that I caught him "in the act" but he quickly held back. So I scooped him up and rushed him into the bathroom and plopped him down on his potty chair. He's got a Throne of His Own

K got home last night and was super excited over the piano . She wasn't as surprised as I had hoped. She knew something was up when she left. I guess she knows her mama too well. (I'm not all that good at keeping secrets anyway.) She had a great time at Grandma & Grandpa’s but was happy to get h

wait...wait...wait...NOW! in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

Last week I went on a shopping spree. See, I am not the kind of person to just up and buy stuff. I have to research to learn about the product I think I want, figure out my options (perhaps another product would do what I want and more), then I have to find the best price. This can take weeks, even months, at times. I find satisfaction not in instant gratification

Reply to Frustrated parent in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

I also have two children, although the age difference is greater. My daughter is 10 years old and my son is twenty-one months old. He hit his terrible twos a couple of months ago and is still going strong. My daughter has learned the hard way that it is extremely important that she keep anything she values out of his reach, either by keeping it in her room which is a little brother-free zone or by watching it at all times.

**UPDATE** Bob was successfully transfered to the pet store. They were very happy to take him back. They gave me a nice, little blue betta in exchange who is now swimming happily in a very small bowl on my counter. His name? Bobtoo.

Reply to If you could take ONE memory with you... in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Right now, this second, I would choose the birth of my son. At that time in my life I was surrounded by everyone I love, and those that couldn't be there would be represented by those who were. My daughter was there and she embodies everything that was good about my first relationship. My husband was there. My mother. And of course, my son in whose eyes my father was reflected.

That's Not What We Agreed To in Business JoeUser Forums

I get to work today and the boss is on a rampage and for good reason. The phone bill came in. Thirty five calls on three lines that are only just now coming into use for a new arm of our business: $770. Yes, you read that right: Seven hundred and seventy dollars. We set up these lines in May, with a toll-free terminating at the main line. We set up th

Reply to Masks on JU exposed in Blogging JoeUser Forums

It is time that people take responsibility for what they write. It is time that people start to realise that the consequences of their actions, and what they say will come around to bite them on the ass. No more hiding behind masks. People are being hurt, and that for me is a good reason to expose them.

Fish are a pain. They are. Or at least Bob is, the current Bob. The betta I had in in 1996, who was Bob too, he was fine. He lived in a very small bowl and he ate little freeze dried worms every other day and regular fish food the rest of the time. His bowl was small enough for me to just dump out a
