Hey all. Just wanted to let you all know that it has finally happened for me. I know I have not been on for a while. I have unfortunatly been living in a "hell hole". I have had no heat, water, or food in my house for almost three weeks. Mind you that the current temperature outside is about 30 degrees F. That makes my house about 20 degrees at night.
The good news is the fact that I am moving this week into my own apartment. I will have my best friend who will be staying with me and that way I will be paying about half of the rent. Anyway I will be back on as a regluar member of this forum in about a week or so.
So untill then...

*LOL* at the topic title  Nice news, Laguna! Congratulations with the move. No idea how much "20 degrees F" will be in Celsius though... Hey, don't forget to place Lisa portraits and pictures all around your new apartments! I know a couple of good pics

Yay for Laguna's new and less sucky apartment!  No idea how much "20 degrees F" will be in Celsius though... 20 degrees Fahrenheit = -6.6 degrees Celsius 30 degrees Fahrenheit = -1.1 degrees Celsius Also known as "not nice without heat".

Sounds rather unpleasant... But how did you survive without water and food for three weeks?

Well I did have food, just no running water. Have you ever had to resort to living like a transient in your own home? Well, that is what I did. My food was mainly stuff I bought while out at work and what ever left-overs I had, I ate before I went home. It really did suck, but that is ok. I am getting a new job and a new place to live so it was worth the crappy living conditions.
The one job that I am hoping to get would put me on easy street for a while, If i get it that is. It is a simple job, just a bit of typing, telephone answering, and paperwork, and it would give me almost $4000 a month. For someone like me that is like winning the job lottery. I currently make about $200 a month, so this would be a big step up. $200 a month keeps me right at the point where I can get to work and eat, but should anything go wrong, I would be screwed.
The worst part is the fact that the reason that I don't make much money is because I work for my family's business.

Eh, that must be a typo, right? $400 sounds more reasonable for a job like this. If not, I'll move to your place right away.

nope, 4000 is correct. The job is for the city manager and redevelopment agency. All government employees get payed a lot. It is called "Misappropriation of funds".  And I will definetly take pics of the new house

So there are such things even *outside* Italy Heh! Don't forget the UK - our civil servants do very nicely too! In fact, I think it's more or less universal - in far-off galaxies somewhere, little green government employees are rolling in their version of money... Anyway, I hope you get the job Laguna and all the best in your new home.
