    Default Bad news

    I got a letter from Illinois Family Farms and I didn't get the job but anyway I'm gonna hold off on job searching until school starts cause I need to get my schedule fixed and everything so I'm sure that would have caused me not to get the job anyway.

    I'm sad to hear that, Double L. Would you have had reliable transportation to work if you got the job?

    As of now no cause when I went up there for the interview I lost 4th gear and the transmission is pretty much shot so I got to come up with $450 to get a used one and then save up money to get the one that went out rebuilt and put that one in.

    Like many others, ELL...I was hoping you'd get your start.
    There is a saying, "You can't keep a good man down."
    Stay positive... you inspire this message board.
    I'm reminded of my start, and the enthusiasm I felt.

    Things always turn out for the best, Double L. It may not seem like it at the time, but things always turn out the way that they should. When one door closes, another opens.

    hey Double L i think not getting that job is for the best also. Them farm outfits are real ruff. They dont pay **** and they want you to work 80/hr a week. Things will turn around for ya. Everything happens for a reason.
    Truck Driving an occupation consisting of hours of boredom interrupted by sheer terror!!

    Yeah I was thinking the samething as well, I'm gonna let the school find me a job since they got connections. I'm probably gonna put off driving a truck for a year. I already got my medical card and permit so I don't have to worry about that.

    I really like hauling the Harvest up here. All fruit...strawberries, cherries, plums, apricots, pears, apples... 8)

    ummmmmmm... I make lots of fruit pies this time of the year.

    whimper...I really LOVE pie.

    I'm not hauling the Harvest this year, but I have lots of friends who are. Just finished eating a fresh cherry pie last night.
    awah Laddie...at my age, it was better than sex too. Well...okay, it was just a lot cheaper, and lasted a few minutes longer.

    I agree with Dejanh, seems like things always seem to work out one way or another, you're young you got plenty of time. Something else will pop up.
