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

[Mr. Morden]

My guess is that Chris made the "Dave Leip" account himself. That's just a guess though.

A false flag operation?

EDIT: Also, if "Dave" is really him, then he's oddly fine with the name "Christopher Costantini" being associated with that page.

[Mr. Morden]

What's the longest job that Bushie's ever held?  ONG?  How long did that last?

[Mr. Morden]

Why on earth did you post something from my Facebook?  Do you seriously think it's perfectly acceptable to post information from Bushie's Facebook?

At this point, you've made it implicitly clear that it is acceptable.

That's true, I haven't been consistent in being angered about this practice.  I'll take the blame for that one.

Again, if someone keeps posting your FB info here after you've warned them not to, just de-friend them.

[Mr. Morden]

I forget, do you still get Indian health care?  Or are you on an Obamacare exchange now or something (if they even have that in OK)?

[Mr. Morden]

My life is none of your business even if I do post about it.

Missed this the first time, but this quote is goldmine-worthy.

[Mr. Morden]

I don't want any human life to go to waste so I want you to succeed Bushie. I've been nice this time. But if you don't get your act together and make yourself count, I'm not going to be nearly as kind and supportive next time.

This is the same cycle that hundreds of Update followers have gone through over the past four years.

[Mr. Morden]

Yes, I wrote a post like this almost a year ago, and of course it was ignored. We all do it though. Well done, Riley.

Someone should compile a best of "Tough Love for Bushie" posts anthology.

[Mr. Morden]

Yes, both Duke and Simfan had good ones.  But there may have been better ones in years past, I don't remember.  We've definitely had quite a few.

[Mr. Morden]

Here are the famous Simfan and Duke Update essays:

[Mr. Morden]

Merry Christmas, Bushie!

The 4th of July is still a few weeks off. We cannot focus on Christmas until after Independence Day.

He does have a fetish for doing it on the 4th of July after all.

[Mr. Morden]

I assume OKC and Tulsa are pretty cheap cities to live in?

[Mr. Morden]

Buxhie did the doc use a latexed finger to check the prostate?

[Mr. Morden]

I do plan to go to Walmart tomorrow night and get some healthier food.

What are some examples of things you'll eat for dinner on days when you don't go out to eat?

[Mr. Morden]

Also, did you ever get your CADD certificate, Bushie?

I haven't gotten it,  yet.

What's the hold up on that?  You did pass all the required coursework, right?  Have you been pestering the school to send you the certificate?

[Mr. Morden]

Will you watch the U.S. play Germany on Thursday at 11:00:00 CST, BushOK?

Don't know, yet.

Are you still a fan of Kenyan sports?

[Mr. Morden]

Are there no other jobs in Oklahoma but call centers? I just don't understand why you keep going back to them and getting fired each and every time.

There are other jobs out there and I apply for them, but I haven't gotten a bite on my applications recently.

What about retail or something?  Do call centers pay that much more than department stores, for example?  I honestly have no idea.  Or is any job that would involve standing up a no go?

[Mr. Morden]

And, seriously, unless he was stocking shelves (which seems bad too), the customer service part seems a bad idea considering his Tourettes.

As opposed to a call center, where his entire job would consist of customer service?

[Mr. Morden]

I didn't say call centres are a good idea. They're not.

OK, then what do you suggest he do for employment, if not retail?

[Mr. Morden]

I use Indeed all the time, along with Simply Hired and Craigslist.  I just find very few pure entry level CAD positions.  Everybody seems to want experience.  How does one get experience when no one will give them the experience?

I thought we were talking about retail jobs now.  Yes, it would be nice if you could get a CAD job, but you just said that you'll take whatever you can get now.  Both Inks and Joe Republic have just given you links showing retail jobs in the OKC area (though maybe you're more interested in Tulsa now).  Are you going to look into those or not?

[Mr. Morden]

I just sent the school and my instructor an e-mail asking the status of the certificate. I will now wait for a response.

I'm already started on my job search for today and have one application already in this morning.

What kind of jobs are you putting in applications for?  Are you looking at those websites that Inks and Joe Republic pointed out, to find retail jobs?

Those are included, but I just put in for a computer job - not a CAD(D) job, but an E-Commerce/Computer Science job that I went to college for.  Most of the time, it is customer service, clerical, technical support, and CAD(D).  I do look at the retail job side of craigslist, too.

Again, not to harp on the retail thing, but it still seems like the easiest option to explore, given that you just said yesterday that at this point you'd settle for anything.  Can't you just go to a mall, and ask a bunch of stores if they're hiring?  Don't those kinds of jobs have high turnover, such that there's likely to be an opening *somewhere* at a given point in time?  Or is the job market really that tight in Tulsa?

[Mr. Morden]

Woohoo! Way to go!

[Mr. Morden]

There is no website from what I can find, so I can't really investigate the company….

Here we go again?

[Mr. Morden]

Probably not the best idea to post that information publicly on this forum, given Mondale's shenanigans.

[Mr. Morden]

I'm only 11 1/2 months from the wedding and I have to have a job before I can ask her Dad and propose to her.  Even a low-paying job will show that I am at least trying.

EDIT: Note that this was said less than a week ago.
