Laurel/Bill -- Hats off to both of you. Years and years without drama is very impressive. I'm not a "friend of Bill's" but was engaged to someone who was. He was sober so it wasn't an issue but I learned a lot about the AA world. However he did have big $ issues which ultimately led to the disengagement.

Keep up the great work on both fronts!

In fact, I have an interview TOMORROW with -- can you believe it -- the international studies office at my alma mater! If I get the job I'll not only have come full circle, but will be earning more money than I've ever earned at any other job. FINGERS CROSSED!!!

Good luck Jenney!!!! Let us know how it goes!

I left my last job because it paid a lot of money, but I hated it and how it affected my personal life. Now I make a lot less money but I love what I am doing.

Thanks. I had three interviews (back-to-back) last Thursday and they all went very well. I have been told I'm on the short list for the job. Again, FINGERS CROSSED!

Only problem is that they've had a horrible time with my Capital One employment verification. You can read all about it in another thread I started in this forum, to spread the word that some employers now charge for employment verification. I learned this the hard way.

I left one job in retail after 2 weeks when they told me to change my hair color. My black hair was "shocking and unatual". They hired me with that hair color and I do get asked if its my natural color.

I left JC Penney after working there for 3 years, I was not granted the vacation time I asked for. I needed that time to spend with my husband before he was deployed.
