New job - I'm pysched!View MessagesHere I go! “I am about to accept a new position with a company based in Boston, however, I get to work from my house Memphis! The best thing is I will get to travel all over the U.S., and Internationally! Now I can get up in the Northeast and out west to do some serious trails! WOOHOOO!!!” 9:41:39 AM 6/23/05 “sounds good--” 6:49:21 PM 6/23/05 “Wow, that sounds great! What will you be doing, if you don't mind my asking? Intrigue? Secret agent stuff? :)” 9:52:24 PM 6/23/05 “I'm going to be a Loss Prevention consultant for a company who represents some pretty large retailers. It's going to be a blast!” 1:04:26 PM 6/24/05 “I have once again convinced a group of people to pay me a ton of money to do a job in which I have no experience, in a field which I know absolutely nothing about. I love being me!” 9:10:04 PM 8/15/05 “did they elect you pres.” 7:40:54 AM 8/16/05 “What's your field?” 7:51:13 AM 8/16/05 “Sounds like me” 7:53:17 AM 8/16/05 “Dayhiker, My new field is spend management analysis.” 8:53:20 AM 8/16/05 Bison and Wounded Knee “Are you giving lessons? Wish I was in a similar position!” 8:56:57 AM 8/16/05 “It's all about networking I guess. Make lots of connections. I hadn't even started looking for a job yet, someone mentioned my name and they called me.” 9:02:21 AM 8/16/05 “So you're paid to spend money, cool. Seriously though, I thought you were in a technical field. Sounds more like a finance background. I have a friend that's an investment banker for a large bank. Cool gig.” 9:04:46 AM 8/16/05 “There's a tech side to it. Not paid to spend money, paid to analyze how others spend money.” 9:07:09 AM 8/16/05 “Is that sort of like window shopping?” 9:07:54 AM 8/16/05 “Not exactly, it's looking at how a company is spending it's money and letting them know how they could spend it more effectively.” 9:11:53 AM 8/16/05 “Bison: "OK, I've analyzed your spending. It appears that you routinely spend 8 dollars on a gallon of orange juice. You could be spending either 6 dollars or 9 dollars if you purchased different brands. That concludes my report. My invoice is in the mail."” 9:13:23 AM 8/16/05 “Cool. Not to get personal, but do you have a tech undergrad and an MBA? If so, I've heard that's a great combo.” 9:13:30 AM 8/16/05 “A degree, pshaw... who needs a degree? I have a what I like to think is a pretty impressive resume instead.” 9:18:19 AM 8/16/05 “Even better. Cool.” 9:20:07 AM 8/16/05 “congrats on the new job.” 9:23:41 AM 8/16/05 “Hey Ewker, turns out I'm coming to Nashville for a couple of days.” 9:26:43 AM 8/16/05 “BINGO! What you said way above dude. Friend and current boss called me to say the job was mine.” 9:49:58 AM 8/16/05 “good deal bison, enjoy!” 3:27:37 PM 8/16/05 “WOW, good for you....how do I do that? Right about now I need to do something like that. I've got to find a way out of manufacturing.....just got laid-off last Thursday, due to "downsizing" read that poor management. Now I'm looking at my options to see how I can make this turn around.....any ideas?” 3:43:13 PM 8/16/05 “Bison, let me know when you will be in town.” 3:45:16 PM 8/16/05 “Ewker, It'll actually be the first week in Sept. unless something happens before then.” 5:28:34 PM 8/16/05 “cool, come on Sept 3rd and you can help me move =)” 6:32:35 PM 8/16/05 “After labor day I'm afraid.” 6:33:29 PM 8/16/05 “dang my luck...lol shoot me a email when the time gets closer” 6:38:56 PM 8/16/05 “I'm off to work at a new job. going to learn about white tailed dear :) later” 5:18:58 AM 8/15/07 “And the clock starts.....” 5:20:40 AM 8/15/07 “Didn't stay gone long, did she? LOL” 5:33:11 AM 8/15/07 “Is this a different rescue job from the one a few months back?” 5:50:10 AM 8/15/07 “I've lost track.” 5:51:11 AM 8/15/07 “Good luck.” 5:56:15 AM 8/15/07 “Stovie...please be nice. Good luck Maple...what a great opportunity!” 6:00:00 AM 8/15/07 “I am being way nicer than she was to me, LOL.” 6:01:36 AM 8/15/07 “I'm asking because I thought the one from a month or two ago was also deer rescue. Maybe this is the end of the probationary period and the more formal part of work begins?” 6:27:47 AM 8/15/07 “Is this a different rescue job from the one a few months back?” dayhiker 8:50:10 AM 8/15/07 no dayhiker, it is the same job. I was hired about 1 1/2 months ago but it did not start till Aug 15th. I am also learning a lot about plants and there eating habits. It is very interesting so far. thanks HPM and Crazy, i wish it was more hands on with animals but i am looking forward to collecting sci data.” 5:03:24 AM 8/16/07 “ ![]() HMM "Hands On" with deer....? Um I think you are in the wrong part of the country...(LOL) Good luck Mapes, wishing the best.” 5:09:45 AM 8/16/07 “*giggle*” 5:24:38 AM 8/16/07 “Wow, you guys down south sure look at some weird porno.” 5:41:18 AM 8/16/07 “Usually, XL finds one that is at least stump broke.” 5:59:55 AM 8/16/07 “Chili...."Yeah but does you make a OPSIE shield out of a Kroker sack?"” 6:02:08 AM 8/16/07 No news is good news! “I'm kinda surprised to see it, but that is a good picture of yourself, XL400236.” 6:17:51 AM 8/16/07 “"I am also learning a lot about plants and there eating habits." mapleleaf 5:03:24 AM 8/16/07 I thought you were working with white tail deer?
