Doesn't take long to dance with the sandman when you're little and tuckered!
More than a month or so ago, I applied for a spectacular job opportunity. Got a call a few weeks back saying I was a candidate ... had an interview last week and hope to find out more this week. Ten people are being interviewed for the job; I think that's normal judging by how many companies near me have tossed out employees into the Dumpster.
It's a fantastic job, almost tailor-made for my skills and I'm hopeful it will go my way. But if it doesn't, there's always Plan B.
I noticed Boston Market is hiring all shifts.
It's a real crummy time not to have a job.
Not that it's anything new that athletes are using drugs, but it's a shame when one who's been elevated to hero falls. The bong photo of Michael Phelps reminds us that he's like most other college kids (dumb as a pet rock) and that he's only human. For that, we are thankful. Shame that someone who rose so high has taken such a hit, but I have no doubt he will recover from it and move on.
Apparently, A-Fraud has tested positive for steroids, so the nickname will continue to stick to him. But then, corruption of some kind in baseball is just part of the game.
