  1. I have always been tempted to wear a black suit and sunglasses and say "I was on a mission from God." thanks- Egil Thanks chef- Will wrrite a new post next week- Egil
  2. Thanks for your thoughtful reply. I can honestly say that my life is better, and I am a wealthier soul because of all the experiences gained in those "lost" years.
  3. Excathedera- I was reading many posts. Enjoyed yours. Since I am new to this, be BRUTAL, as I believe grace belongs only to the graceful (ie, I am new with this technology as well)..

  4. I still believe in rainbows, Since I see them everyday' Can you you, tell me, dear sweet sister... Where's the Spanish class today? I took the class in spanish, and in english, just as well because my resume was weak... they sent staight to hell. Because I was un-learned, In a canyon filled with lies. I took the the pill so bitter. so that many could survive. Some day I 'll stand there with you, with a bucket filled with tears... And all will be there laughing Questioning the years... Love only- egilkent
  5. Thanks Suda! I prefer the coffee and Eggs Benedict to the 101 ways to eat humble pie (and serve it to others)....
  6. Thanks dreamin'- I have read enough to feel safe in posting. look forward to the laughter and tears- egilkent

  7. Thanks for the reply! It is odd that I gained so very much experience in those 10 years. So much so that I was qualified to work in management (for 10 + years), and was actually al lisenced cfoster care parent.
  8. Greetings and Salutations! I wish to to thank you all at Gresespot for providing this forum. As so many before me, I felt alienated, as though I alone had escaped... The following are questions I was actually asked at one time or another in job interview settings. The last is perhaps the most poignant: "I see you have lived in IA, WA, MS, LA and now NM. Were you on some kind of 60's roadtrip?" -No but I always wanted to travel and see as much of the country as I could... "You have a great variety of previous experience. Can you tell me why you think working as a chimney sweep would make you qualified for a management position?" -Did I tell you I also clean windows.? "We are unable to establish a credit history for you." -Oh. I have paid cash for everything for the last 6 years... "We would like to offer you a job, but frankly your references did not check out." -Oh. I think they are all in Ohio, but will be back by the first of September... "I see you went to college at *** in the 70's. And I can't help but notice there is a 10 year gap on your resume. Were you in som e kind of trouble?" -Out of the mouths of babes.... Again, thank all of you so much. Many tears of laughter and release have been shed here as a result of the communications concerned. Perhaps will post more! One of the almost 4,000 egilkent
