Signs of some relieve

Comments Off

DB had a few job interviews already since last Thursday and this morning there were one each with the staffing agency and the company that is hiring.  I am so happy and off course so is he.  DB said the interviews went very well and had no problems with the questions they asked.  All questions were related to when he was in the Air Force and when is the earliest he can start.

While we were prepping for our dinner of curry chicken mee (Hokkien mee), the house phone rang.  Usually we don’t look at the caller ID during dinner time.  But this time around he answered the call coz it was from the staffing agency.  The recruiter asked when is the earliest he can take a pee test.  Yeehaaa!!!!

So now he will go back to the staffing agency tomorrow morning to pick up the forms and go for the pee test.  He will have to pass three other background checks to get this job.  Apparently, this company works for the federal government, that is why all the checks he has to pass.

We are keeping our fingers crossed and I really have to thank the Lord for helping us through these hard times.

I went for a walk this afternoon with Ranger and I am very glad I do not smell the fallen, smashed up plums on the ground anymore. Along the street we live, there are a few Plum trees that the owners planted on his yard but they were closed to the road. The fallen plums were left on the ground where cars go by and SQUASH, the plums are no more plums but yucky stinky stale smell. I hated the smell but now, they are covered by snow.  Phew, just wait till spring, it will start all over again.

Fire drill in the cold

Comments Off

Our company had a fire drill this morning. The temperature was still 9F degrees, cloudy skies, and we had to go out of the buildings, stand in the open parking lot for 10 minutes. Yeah, there were quite a lot of effenheimers flying around. The funny thing was the security emergency light located every 50 yards in the building were out.  None of them flipped on.  That was great maintenance by facilities.  Anyways, this time around, the drill was an unexpected one.  Usually, the company will send out a notice via our intranet informing the employees of a fire drill.
