Trav, Trav, Trav...have you learned nothing?
"as soon as i can afford some gas to try and find the " Defeatist statement.
Reword it to "Next time i'm at the ..."
PMA is everything. Oh, focus, lighting, depth of field as well.
Travis, how far is Tumbledown? If it is not obscene, then just get on your bike and go. We don't
need no stinkin rack!
It is far beyond my biking range, at the moment. a rough figure that it takes 45 minutes to get
there at an average speed of, we'll say 50, so that means it is about 37.5 miles, give or take 5.
and the mountain from what i hear (don't remember) is pretty steep, so after riding there, climbing
the mountain, and riding back down (pretty technical from what i hear), i doubt i will have the
energy to ride back home, no matter how many Power-bars i eat. that's why i like the car, i can
drive to the trail, have that much more energy, ride, and come back to AC and a cushy seat.
Quoted message said:Pete is right, PMA dude! You are not this defeatist in job interviews I hope.
Ok, i gotta ask, "PMA"? most of 'em i can figure out, but this one left me stumped.
And no, i am not a defeatist at a job interview (i have only gotten 3 in my life), instead i am a
nervous stuttering wreck for the first 10 minutes.
I am usually a defeatist before the interview though. i recall all the mistakes i may have made on
the application or resume if applicable. ah, but this is the hell of a perfectionist (who ironically
if far from perfect). That last letter of application i turned in, i was able to speak briefly with
the guy who was highering, so he knows who i am (ie, can place a face to a name). and my overall
impress of this meeting is positive. if he can overlook the fact that i forgot to sign the letter of
App, then i may have a chance. but then too, i think her is looking for highly skilled labor for low
wages. that's why they leave every couple of months. however, if he was to give me a chance, i could
learn that which i don't know (ie, macs), and most likely give him a good fair amount of time.
perhaps several years if he is good to work for, and maybe a career if i really enjoy the job.
