Cleavage or NO Cleavage?

Well went to my interview today and no cleavage.  (see last blog)   But did get a shocker.  So these head hunters told me that they would take me on as a client.  I asked how they got paid.  They said it started with a $4250 retainer and $1500 after they found me an executive position.   Needless to say I will not be paying their fee.  I think they are scam artists and i refuse to pay up front for a service.  I told them to find me a position and if I liked it and got the job I would right them a check the same day.  They said it didnt work like that.  I asked them, "do you pay for services up front or after the service as been performed?"  They said their industry doesn't work like that.  I told them that I was not interested.  If they changed their mind they knew where to reach me.   FUN FUN

Either I am bored or there are no "GREAT" games

I am a big FPS fan.  I really enjoy these types of games.  I have tried other types but the only thing that comes close is racing games.  I used to like to play burnout 3 but then I switched consoles.  Well I have been playing a lot of COD4 lately.  Apparently too much, because I am bored out of my mind with it.  So yesterday I went out and bought Burnout: paradise city.   I was hoping to get my game fix from this game until RB6v2 came out.  BOPC has its good points but for the most part, it seems very confusing and not well thought out to me.  It is hard for me to figure out what the hell is going on.   I tried to play online and never could figure out where to start or even what was really going on.  I am really disappointed in this game.  I also bought a used copy of GOW.  I traded mine a long time ago, but thought I would give it another try to see if I could bring back the fun.  Nope didn’t happen.  I am basically stuck.  I guess I will just have to wait till rb6v2 comes out in March.  By then I will either be busy on the farm, or scuba diving, or hopefully a new job if I can find one by then. 

By the way here is a little tid bit of info for all yall.  Did you know that if you take a Bachelors degree in Agricultural Business and $5 that you can get half a cup of coffee at starbucks?  Apparently I picked a fairly useless degree.   I guess you'll have that. 

Let me share a funny story with you.  The other day a head hunter firm called me.  They were passed my resume through a friend.  They wanted to meet with me to take my on as a client.  They are an executive placement firm.  They only deal with clients who are "formally educated" meaning having a degree and at least 15 years in an executive position, so here the story of how the meeting went.  You will laugh at this when I am done.  I go the office to meet with these people, I walk in and tell the receptionist who I am and who I am there to meet.  I have a 1pm appt. it is 12:50 and they are not back from lunch yet.  Ok no prob. understandable, well while I am waiting for my appt.  I am talking to the receptionist and she keeps apologizing for being dressed casual and not in a suit.  She says she is going to a funeral but had to come in for a little while, and that this is not her normal job.  Instantly I realize this woman is 1-crazy as a shit house rat 2-very self conscience about being thought of as a lowly receptionist.  My appt. arrives and BAM the first thing that catches my eye are BOOBS.  This is an office where everyone is dressed in business suits.  This lady is V.P. of marketing and is wearing a suit, but she is showing some serious cleavage.  I am a boob guy.  My wife is very well endowed and she knows I look and even points some out to me sometime, but I am mature about it also.  I don’t stare when it is not appropriate.  Basically I didn’t stare at her HUGE TITS during the whole meeting.  I think she strips on the side. After the meeting I called my wife and asked her about dress attire for an office. I have never worked in an office before.  OK back to the meeting.  So this lady is asking me about my background and experience and so forth.  Then she asked me about my wife and personal life.  I tell her that my wife just graduated with her MBA with top honors and that she has 10 years experience with a fortune 500 company.  At this point the lady quits writing on my page and writes something on a tablet.  The meeting goes on for another 10 minutes and we start to walk out of the office.  When we get to the waiting room, the lady says that she will call once they determine IF they want to take me on as a client.  She says they will set up another meeting and normally they like to meet the spouses during this meeting.  I tell her that my wife is uber busy and will not be able to make any meetings.  She says that we will have to arrange it so that my wife can come or they are not going to be able to go forward with me as a client.  Anybody see what is happening yet?  I tell this lady that I see what she is doing and that my wife is not interested in finding a new job and that she does not need a recruiter.  I tell her to call me if she wants ME as a client not my wife. 

 

I found my first experience with a recruiter to not be what I was expecting.  However I did enjoy watching her TITs bounce every time she moved.  I have another meeting with her tomorrow, she actually called, but I had to have the “My wife is not interested” conversation again with her.  MY wife and I have a bet going on CLEAVAGE or  NO CLEAVAGE tomorrow.  They were huge and very pretty.  I will let you know how is goes, and if I can I will take a pic with my phone to post, but don’t get your hopes up on that one.  Also on my blog tomorrow I will tell a really funny story about the college parking patrol and the old alumni.  Guess who wins the battle of the parking spaces?

2 Mondays in the Week

    Well it looks like this week is going to have 2 Mondays.  I know everyone of you have had a week like this before.  Hell I have had an entire week of Mondays, but that is a whole nother story.  So as I have said in my first blog I am a farmer.  I farm with my dad.  I also have said never go into business with family.  Does anyone see where i am going with this yet!!!   I have decided to quit farming and get a normal job.  My dad pissed me off yesterday for the last time.  I am letting him have the farm and he can do with it as he sees fit.  One old saying will cover the on going battle between my dad and myself.  "you can't teach an old dog new tricks"  we that applies here, just add a whole lot of money and the possible out come of going broke again.  So I have decided to move on with my life and let my dad figure his out for himself.

Monday #2=   In doing all the bookkeeping for the farm and my dad.  I am having to take care of his finances.    All he knows how to do is write checks.  He has an account with regions bank,  regions bought out Amsouth bank.  In doing so they completely screwed up all the regions internet banking customers.  I have not received a statement in 4 months nor can i log onto the website.  So i called the help line,  So far i have yet to talk to anyone or get any help.  My total hold time to date (thank god for speaker phone) is 3 hours.  At the 1 hour mark the phone auto disconnects.  At this point my head has exploded.  So I went down to my local branch and tried to get some help.  No such luck, "Sir our customer service reps must help you with that, we cannot do anything for you at a local branch."   So in the nicest, non yelling voice i can muster, I politely ask " well lets see if you can close my account and give my all my money in cash"   Of course they say yes sir and give me all my money.  I go down to Bank of America open and account, go home log right onto my account on the internet and start paying bills online.  The moral of this story is  HOW DO MORE PEOPLE NOT GO POSTAL.  If i were on a jury it would be hard not to feel for these people.    Well that is the end of my 2 Monday story.

I cant wait until the end of march gets here and I can hopefully go scuba diving again.  I have a trip kinda planned to north Florida to Vortex and Morrison springs planned.  If you have never done it Scuba Diving is addicting as video games or crack.  Well ya'll have a good day now, ya hear.

Delusions of Grandeur

    Well boys and girls this is my first blog entry.  Hold on to your seats because I plan to share tid bits of vast wisdom with you lucky few here at 2o2p.  It will only take a sentence or two.   I will even try to spell check!!!! 

    The first item of business is to work on my blog title.  Now i know some of you lucky few are actually artistically blessed,  I am definitly not.  I would love for someone to volunteer to help me with my blog title and my signature for the site.  However I am a true believer in you get what you pay for.  Therefore I am putting the call out to you artists.  Please help me, I AM WILLING TO PAY ACTUAL MONEY or trade.  Please just drop me a PM if you are interested and some examples of previouse genius would be welcome but not required.  We will discuss what I would like and I am interested in.  Also If your work is great, I might be able to use you in helping me with my website which is in the infant stages(lets just say I am about to get to first base with its mother). I am hoping to have it started by the end of march or april.

    Now it is time to tell everyone about me.  My name is Flywalker and I am an addict.  I am addicted to video games.  This is unfortunate because if I had used my time I have spent playing games to do something useful, I would rule the world by now.  Or maybe just Arkansas.   I am a farmer, I farm wheat and soybeans with my dad.  Rule #1 never go into business with family.  I have a college degree in Ag Business.  Yes I went to school, paid tuition, and I am still a farmer.  (Insert Joke of life here)   I am married for the second and last time.  I hope I got it right this time.  She is great she is actually the reason I game.  She bought me my first PS2.  I went online with it playing Killzone, then I borrowed her brothers xbox and played Halo and the rest is history.  She does not regret her choice I hope.  She just graduated with her MBA,  I hope she does well enough to support me, did Mention I am a farmer.  I know most of you think of farmers as very rich.  Some are, some are my friends and they are very wealthy, I am not.  I am 35 and still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up.   I am looking for that life changing event that lets me know what I am susposed to do with my life.  Anyday now I hope.

    In my blog in the future I hope to discuss some of my insights into everyday life and such.  I will hopefully be an interesting read.  Or if it were on actual paper something to use in the woods during the absence of toilet paper.  I read alot of the blogs on this site and find that most of them are very interesting.  I really like the ones with naked chicks.  Durty and sexkitten I like ya'lls the most.  But they all give me a new kinda read on the people on this website.  Which by the way is the best website on the net.  Thanks doodi!!!

    Well this is all for now but hopefully you will be reading more from me daily and all you artistic people please contact me,  I can't draw a straight line.
