STOP THE MADNESS....where is this board going?
by SnakesInTheTower ini've only posted since feb 07..but i have lurked for several years prior and there was usually something interesting on the board.
as i was reading the active topics list this morning, only a couple things jumped out at me as interesting...its been this way since the dgate and tgate incidents.... i was discussing this with a long time poster via im yesterday....does it seem to anyone else that so many of the topics are ...i dont know....odd...or different than they used to be...and i dont mean that in a good way.. i miss the newbies coming on and telling us their stories.... i miss the long time posters updating us on their lives post-borg... i guess with the recent uproar, the lurkers are hesitant to become newbies (cant say as i blame them now...we probably scared them off , and maybe the vets are just as hesitant...after all, someone went 2 years with their fraud/hoax...who will believe anyone else now?
i hope this is just a temporary cycle on this board..i have read many many posts from the archives...i hope one day soon we can get back to a happy medium here.. by the way, i like the fluff threads, but these seem to be more and more sex related (maybe that word will wake someone)... yet they get all the attention....and then someone goes too far and it gets locked down by a mod and the poster restricted......(i am not a prude...just sometimes enough is enough).

Well, for me...I don't feel comfortable posting, even though I do and still try. I even have trouble posting things I've researched and found interesting. The board has a feeling of "clicks". I'll post some things but even on those things I feel attacked and even an "outcast".
Since the TGate and DGate, it seems a bit worse. Maybe those "clicks" are stronger now since the TGate and DGate happened because they are in their click of people they know pretty well? Just a thought.

Heehee, I've seen that joke before and it's funny. Though I have to admit, when I was going to your link I was thinking...good I sure need a math (algebra) link for one of my classes. Stinker!!!

one word to describe me
by Hortensia ini thought crumpet's thread was really interesting and that everyone was really supportive in their answers.
then i thought about what words would describe me - i imagine lots of folks thought that.
i used to have in my profile "short fat ugly old and mean" which was a joke but offended someone...currently i would described myself as tired and a little crabby and inclined to be unsympathetic, which was always my husband's complaint about me anyway.

Guess a one word that I would describe me is determined.

It looks like there is a job opportunity opening up for me!!!
by FreedomFrog ini got a flyer on my door this morning.
i was about to throw it away because it was a center opening up for a daycare.
i decided to call them to find out what their charges are to see if they were any lower...unfortunately they weren't.

Thanks A&W and the rest who I haven't thanked.
I'm so excited this is all I can think about right now...lol. I sure hope I'm not getting my hopes up too high. I imagine what it would be like. My ideal situation would be they hire me with full benefits including childcare. Who knows, this may be what helps me get into my career since I'm wanting to be a Child Psychologist. At least it's a start.

Congrats to you!! Great news, and I hope you will nail the job if it's best for you.
Ask about benefits, and specifically childcare benefits. They will understand what you mean.
Oh believe me...I will nail the job if I can work the childcare thing out. Though it may be a moot point anyway. Only 5 people are going to be hired there since they want the atmosphere family feeling. They have several centers and are opening this one up in November. I'm probably one of the first to apply or at least one of the few.
Even if I don't get health benefits the childcare benefit is what I most need right now so I will ask...and that's a good way to put it, thanks.

It would make sense to me, that while you are working there, the kids being there should be a freebie. You should only have to pay if you are going to class.
That's what I'm thinking too.
BTW-I haven't been on an interview for a long time...how do you ask an employer about "free babysitting" without coming of as a freeloader?

Thanks nj
I just thought of another thing...I need to ask her about benefits because if they provide health insurance I'll then have health insurance too...Oh god, I hope I am able to take this job..lol
Keep your fingers crossed...heehee. I'll let you know what happens.

Thanks all!
I'm excited too because I wasn't calling for a job and she asked me. She already knew my situation so she may work with me until I get the Title II. One top of that, after taking a few course on childcare she said my wages will go up.
