My ride, I have an interview. I live in oil country which means our economy is in the pooper. I made it to the 5th round of layoffs at a company I've been at for 10 years. I'm an experienced, educate business professional and have applied to around 100 jobs and this is only my 3rd interview.
Interview
Waiting for my interviewer, swanky digs
Condo
I own a rental property and after having to pay my mortgage on my credit cards for 2 months I have a renter moving in tomorrow! ????
Sink
I fix stuff because I'm too cheap to hire someone. Put in a nice new sink for my renter.
Walk
Condo is ready to go, time to go for a walk and grab some lunch.
