Applied for a job with the US Postal Service as a rural carrier, and have really pushed for full time work.

Now with the Postal Service, I need to take an online assessment by 12/31 and an in-person test by 1/04/16.

Good luck to you, sir. I've got karmic waves to spare -- I'll send them your way.

Passed the online assessment going away. That was basically a questionnaire asking how well I work with others, how I work under supervision, and how well I've treated customers.

Now the hard part. I go in for a big test on January 2 in Grand Rapids at 9 AM, and I need to be there by 8:30.

Also applied at a couple manufacturing jobs. One of those places called back today, and they want to interview me too.

My "financial breakthrough" is coming...

I scheduled an interview with Shape (manufacturing) on Wednesday morning at 8:30.

How did the trip to Grand Rapids go?

How did the trip to Grand Rapids go?

Passed the exam with a score of 80.40. I had to score 70 or higher to move to the next step.

Felt good enough leaving the exam to play "The Next Episode" by Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg at high volume on the way home.

Had an interview with Shape Corporation today; they're manufacturing. The interview started out great, then took a downturn when she asked if I was "mechanically inclined." I am not.

Oh well... just keep on applying, I guess...

Nobody needs any prayers?? I do. Found out today that my mom has lung cancer. I don't know any details yet. They will do a PET scan Friday and biopsy on Monday. She will be 86 in two weeks. It never occurred to me that she wouldn't live until at least 90 - she won't see 87. As I and many others have said - **** cancer.

If you have some good thoughts or what-have-you to spare, a few extra could be directed my mom's way next week. She was diagnosed with breast cancer last week (was that last week? it feels like a month ago), and her surgery is scheduled for Thursday.

Thoughts are with you.

My mom was diagnosed in July. But thankfully it was caught early and surgery went well. Currently she is undergoing radiation and will not have to do chemotherapy.
