Update XV: Stuck Inside of Tulsa with the Oklahoma City Blues Again

[WalterMitty]

bushie you have *no financial cushion*.  you are living on *debt*

[WalterMitty]

I notice that the legitimately helpful link I posted wasn't even acknowledged.  Figures.

god > websites

[WalterMitty]

Yeah, it's just dangerous. When do you have to start making payments towards your loan? I don't know how student loans work.

i wonder if he has ever made a payment, or if papa and mama bushie have been making them since he graduated from university.

[WalterMitty]

bushie, in hindsight would you say it was not good to leave cadd on such bad terms?

[WalterMitty]

did papa allison specifically say 'get a job?'

[WalterMitty]

What happens if he gets a job, proposes to Allison and then loses the job shortly after proposing? That's not exactly an unlikely scenario given his history.

i wonder if allison has considered that very real possibility?

[WalterMitty]

have you received your cadd certificate yet?

[WalterMitty]

bushie you *can not* miss any days during the 3 week training period.  no grade 7 headaches or fast food induced upset tummies.   the only way you miss is if you are hospitalized.

[WalterMitty]

let's talk about the non-existent cadd certificate...

[WalterMitty]

Yeah why not give her the ring if you aren't going to sell it? Why keep it? How on earth can you get a wedding ring for $1000, and especially $200?? I thought they were $8k-$9k minimum!

that is nonsense.  even if one has the means (bushie does not) to spend 8-9k on a ring, to do so is ridiculous.

[WalterMitty]

to all of the lawyers out there, if mama bushie somehow lost the ring, would bushie have bailment case?

but let's talk about cadd...

[WalterMitty]

3 hours total for a wedding and reception?? In what world? The reception should last 4-5 hours at least.

Anyway, I guess you're right. I remember the last girl I was serious with looked at a ring that was $10,000 and I thought that was reasonable. I think my grandmother's old ring was appraised for $11,000 after she died. We've kept that in the family.

And I'm not sure if Bushie has a cause of action against his mother. I'll get back to you on that.

Why would I bite the hand that fed me as a youngster?

hypothetical bushie.

you gave her an item for safekeeping.  if she lost it, you might have a legal case.

[WalterMitty]

bushie do you regret walking out of cadd two months early?  all of this could have been avoided.

[WalterMitty]

bushie do you regret walking out of cadd two months early?  all of this could have been avoided.

No, I don't regret it, because I finished school successfully three months early.  I made so much progress through the fall and winter months that I was able to finish early, successfully.  Now, I could probably have slowed down a bit and gotten a higher score, but that doesn't deny the fact that I did complete the program successfully.

bushie i dont understand how you made so much progress when 1. your attendance was horrible.  2.  you spent over a month re-doing assignments.

[WalterMitty]

bushie have you ever eaten at bahama breeze?

[WalterMitty]

isnt bushie a 'certified' preacher.

why doesnt he pursue that line of work?

[WalterMitty]

"It's just a piece of paper" eh ?   Apparently a piece that's required and you don't possess.  A massive waste of time and money.

the cad certificate is definitely rip.

[WalterMitty]

Memphis, I haven't gotten around to it.

there is no cadd certificate.

and bushie, you weighed 245 in 2009.  you are on a really bad trajectory.  time for a wake up call.

[WalterMitty]

bushie have you contacted metrotech about the certificate?

[WalterMitty]

bushie, have you heard back from metrotech about your certificate?

and that pay policy of your current employer is horrible.  that should be a warning sign right there.

[WalterMitty]

I thought bushie refused to do the final project and he left 2 months early.

[WalterMitty]

bushie, did you enjoy cadd?

[WalterMitty]

Maybe bushie is just a really crappy interviewer? Or he's just being lazy trying to find places. I don't know why everyone else would be getting CADD jobs except him, especially since he claims everywhere he looks wants experienced drafters.

Very few 300 pound men make good interviewees. People that size simply "look lazy" to HR departments.

This is a very ugly truth. And unlike other things that sometimes trigger hiring discrimination - like race or gender - Bushie's weight is something that he can do something about.

I have no doubt my weight and my Tourette's affect the interview.

if you recognize that fact, why do your weight explode during the past 6 months, just when you were entering the job market?

[WalterMitty]

im guessing bushie didnt contact metrotech today.

[WalterMitty]

whatever happened the $100 worth of walking gear bushie bought?

and, yes, when will metrotech be contacted about the mia certificate?
