Re: Whatever Wednesday

  • Thanks ladies, I'll definitely check that out when I hit the store tonight. :)  Appreciate it!
  • Regarding JB, I thought I heard it was when he was 16 and she was 19.  Crazy

    I am SO annoyed this morning.  I have over 40 resumes to call on and I called this candidate yesterday and left a VM then proceeded to call my other resumes and go do interviews and meetings.  I had 22 missed calls from her and at about 2pm I have a teammate come get me out of a meeting because someone on the phone (who called in through our patient number) says they urgently need to speak with me.  I ask who it is and sure enough its this girl.

    I am not even going to interview her because her actions scream impatient, high maintenance and lack of judgement.

  • imageTiffany618:
    Thanks Ladies!  I will let you know how it goes, hypothetically. :)

    My fingers are hypothetically crossed.

  • Holy crap, BL... 22 missed calls? That's insane! I definitely wouldn't interview her.

    RE: Beebs, oh man. I really hope it isn't true. Mostly because I think he & Selena are about the cutest little things on the entire planet, and I want to believe they're different than the Britney/Miley crowd that goes crazy when they get off their leash.

    Surely there are other alternative forms of cheeses, etc.  I do know that Rice Dreams makes ice cream so that's another option.

  • We got some bad news yesterday about SD's education.  It seems she is completely regressing and they are moving her back to Kindergarten.  DH is so upset.  He feels like a horrible dad.  There isn't much more we could have done.  We worked our little butts off to get her to pass Kindergarten the first time and she has just slipped backwards.  The teacher said she wasn't even reading at a Kindergarten level anymore. 

    The teacher also thinks there are some learning disabilities but the district won't test until the end of first grade/beginning of second so we are doing it on our own now.  We are scheduling an appointment with her pedi so they can recommend a psychiatrist so we can get her tested for ADHD.  DH is also looking into getting her a personal tutor who is use to teaching children with learning disabilities.

    It breaks my heart to see DH so upset about this but I'm not sure what else we could have done.  DH's ex didn't fight him on getting her tested but she said she would make the dr appointment.  I told DH that if she hadn't made it by Friday he needed to call first thing Monday and schedule it himself.  I also know consistency is going to be a big thing and I think some things are going to have to change so SD gets all the consistency she can. I told DH that if we do the tutor it needs to be in our house every time because the ex has too many people coming and going and living at her house and it's a big distraction for SD.  He agrees 100% and said that if the ex isn't willing to do everything possible for SD he will take her to court.

    I'm glad DH is finally waking up and taking an interest in SD and her education and not just saying oh well this is what it is and not doing anything else about it.

    Good luck with the house Ashley!

    I heard Mark Davis on the radio this morning talking about someone who was arrested and his middle name was Wayne.  His next statement "Don't ever give your kid a middle name of Wayne."

    I laughed out loud after our conversation earlier this week.

    That's my new middle name!!!!  How dare he make fun of my new middle name!!!!!

  • BL - um, crazy - good idea on steering clear.

    Beiber - so if it's illegal, why would she say that?  Can't she go to jail for that?  Clearly I have not read anything on this, so I should probably do that instead of asking you guys a bazillion questions about it.  :)

    KK said that 3 years difference is a misdemeanor, 4 years is a felony in California... or something to that effect.  So she wouldn't be in too much trouble.

  • California bases the penalty on the age of the of age person.  Since she was 19, she'll probably only end up with a slap on the wrist.  And, since he's a boy, I doubt they do anything.  I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying that women are hardly ever prosecuted for rape/statutory rape.

    Yeah the 22 calls thing kills me but to have me taken out of a meeting like its some urgent matter is seriously crazy.

    I completely agree with the bolded part it made me sad to hear it this morning.

    Good Luck Ashlee!

    Ok ladies, hypothetically speaking... if your going for an interview with a casual dress corporation (like, jeans) and the recruiter specifically says that "business casual" is appropriate for interviews.   What would you wear?

    I dress business casual every day, but I still don't think that is quite 'dressed enough' for an interview. 

    My current job, I wear jeans every day.  No dress code except, come to work with clothes on.  When I interviewed, they said I could dress casual, I still dressed business professional.  Button down shirt, tweed dress, pearls, pumps, hose.  All out.

  • LOL! I Googled JB to see a pic of his alleged baby mama and instead found this. I personally find legit lumberjacks a little sexy...so who knew lumberjack rock was such a turn off?

    Re: JB - I will be very sad if this is a true story. Mainly for Selena Gomez. If it is not true I will be very sad for the woman because it will be obvious she is not mentally stable enough to be raising a child.

    ETA: OMG is this not the cutest pic ever? I love Pink.

  • imagestephiehall:

    I don't understand how the whole JB thing can be untrue--I mean, she has the ultimate evidence doesn't she?  Would she really claim he's the father when a simple DNA test would make her look like a complete looney-loon?

    I have no idea what is going on with JB, however when I read this, the first thing that popped into my head was Dirk and that Crystal chick.  She was lying through her teeth, and crazy cakes.

  • This person in my office has a nasty cough and said that people keep telling them to stop smoking. They followed up with "I just tell them Daughter's Name has the same cough and she doesn't smoke." She lives with your smoking self dude, duh.

  • Manda - I hope you find some yummy dairy alternatives soon, and I hope your treatment goes smoothly so you can get on thyroid meds and start feeling better!

    Leslie - I do watch The Little Couple, love them! And yes, I do want to talk about it. Does anyone else care, or should we start a new thread?

    Tomorrow Courts and I are going to Austin for three nights! I'm super excited to get away for a few days. Any suggestions on things to do or see?

  • I am exhausted today.  My desk is so full but I don't have the energy to do the work! 

     

    The JB thing - if it's true, Cadence will be crushed. Smile

  • Nesties, my DH and I just found out something horrible. My SIL who is fixing to give birth to her 4th child just found out that this one might have cerebral palsy. Her second child she has has a form of it. She has brain degeneration, where her cerebellum is shrinking. Shes 6 years old, and the doctors all said she wouldnt live past 2 or 3. So any thoughts and prayers her way would be greatly appreciated. They dont know what causes this, they think it might be from one of the genes, but nobody has this condition in their family, other than the 6 year old. So if you can, please send out any good vibes her way. TIA
  • Manda - Hope you feel better

    Sarah - yea!

    I hope the JB thing isn't true. He seemed like a decent kid.

  • Hi Ladies! 

    It's been a crazy busy week, and is going to stay that way until next week. My boss is getting married, so I'm trying to hold down the fort. She just left yesterday, and it's already more work than I anticipated! Hopefully I'll be able to pop in once in awhile, just to see what everyone is up to.

    And I am LOVING the weather.....FINALLY. This beautiful autumn you have is making the inferno summers a distant memory......

    Prayers to her, the family, and the unborn baby. It's usually caused by an undeveloped brain or trama. There is a likelyhood she won't have it.
