May be right around the corner

In Reply to: Good, you go ahead and take 7 cpl - gourdpainter

Over on the newbie board, someone is taking 6 cpl VBC. What's that work out to? 4.5 cents per line? On the plus side, if we keep cutting our own throats, there will be no need to send the work to India anymore as they can get it typed here for 3 cpl.

    I'm in your corner, sister MT...
    I find the archive search here to be a huge hit-and-miss prospect. Some peope apparently search and are able to find all of the info they want on the first try.

    However, I've had several instances where my search on a company I know has been discussed on here and a search will show no info, or either that VERY old info that probably isn't appicable.

    I feel your frustration!!!
    if you don't mind not knowing what's around the corner -
    and you don't know when you're next assignment is going to be, 1 month, 2 months, etc. then go ahead and apply, but there have been too many negative things about Kforce said, and I should have listened and took note.

    Here are some corner-cutting things
    Cut dryer sheets in half. Still works just as well. Also, don't use dryer sheets for anything but clothing and maybe a towel or two.

    Use stale bread to make french toast instead of throwing it away.

    Drink homemade iced tea or lemonade instead of soda. Better for your teeth, anyway.

    Turn off the pilot light to your heater (if gas is what you use) during all but the coldest months. Put clear insulating film over windows in the winter to keep out drafts, use the heat less.

    If you qualify (and I think most of us DO!), get on the low-income rate for gas and electricity.

    Coupons are gettting harder to find these days, but if you find coupons for something you were already going to buy anyway, use them! (However, buying something you really didn't need, just because you have a coupon for it, doesn't save you money).

    If you have tollbooths on turnpikes or bridges in your area, plan your trips so that you have to go through them as little as possible. Combine as much of your errands as possible. If they have electronic toll passes (ie, 'FasTrak') where you live, check into it. Some tollbooths give a discount for cars using FasTrak transponders.

    Learn to sew, by hand and/or by machine. You don't have to MAKE clothes (unless you like to), but if you can sew, you can repair rips, (or make them better with colorful knee patches, etc), or you can buy something used at Goodwill, and then customize it by sewing on flower patches, embroidery, sequins or beads.

    If you're a sweets-addict, like I am, kill 2 birds with 1 stone: Save calories and money - don't buy packaged cookies, or ready-made cakes. Buy the mix instead, & store it out of sight. I find that when I do that, I not only tend to not munch on them all day, but will even grab some carrot-sticks instead, if they're handier to eat. The mix is still there, for those times when you just can't stand it anymore, and you HAVE to have some goodies! But if you have to MAKE them, instead of just reaching into a package, you'll eat them less often.
    Yeah, I park it on the extreme left corner. I like to see
    nm
    When logged into Word Client, usually in the left lower corner of your
    screen is the Transnet player. Click on the More button and uncheck always on top.

    Hope that helps.
