Man oh man I am sick of irrelevant comments from people who want a backlink that’s also irrelevant. I live in Oregon (this is mentioned all over this blog too, but I guess I can’t expect spammers to read, now can I?) The latest offender is promoting short sales in San Diego (California), how would… Continue reading Use THIS!!

Adventures in The Laundry Room
Whoever developed the latest incarnation of the All 2x Ultra Free and Clear laundry detergent container must not have ever done laundry in their life. It is also painfully obvious that Sun Products either never ran this design by an actual consumer or they just don’t care what how inconvenient and messy their containers are.… Continue reading Adventures in The Laundry Room
Paid Reviews
You won’t find paid reviews on this site. And that was true even before the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) decided to update/enforce the FTC Act of 1980. Bloggers are now required to disclose freebies sent to them–if they review those freebies on their blogs–or payment they have received for reviews. It’s called truth in advertising.… Continue reading Paid Reviews
Comments Revisited..Spam, Rudeness and Irrelevant Comments Will NOT Be Approved.
Comment #1 re finding Melody Hendrickson: I’m happy with Google Ad Sense. I won’t be adding Pay Per Click (PPC) to the blog anytime soon, and I won’t be promoting PPC, SEO, PTR, etc either as I’m not interested in losing my Google Ad Sense account. Don’t bother looking for your comment on my blog,… Continue reading Comments Revisited..Spam, Rudeness and Irrelevant Comments Will NOT Be Approved.
Mother Revisited…Or MY Privacy Just Isn’t Important
I discovered tonight that my mother in her delusional rampage on Thursday night actually gave out my cell phone number to a friend and presumably to the Bend Police Department too. Did she have my prior permission to do so? Of course not. A little thing like MY privacy isn’t important to her, but if… Continue reading Mother Revisited…Or MY Privacy Just Isn’t Important
No New Claim But At Least I Get The Last Two Checks
So after I pried myself out of bed at 11:30 am (I went to bed at 5:00 am) I called the employment office. My gut feeling that there would be no new claim due to lack of income (1300.00 earned in all of last year) was correct. At least this week I will get the… Continue reading No New Claim But At Least I Get The Last Two Checks
References……Or More Adventures in Job Hunting
References are troublesome for me. My last employer–Macys/Bloomingdales–I think the HR person was impressed with me. My immediate supervisor was impressed with me but she was a seasonal employee just like me. The store manager was NOT impressed with me. It’s a crap shoot as to what the Human Resources person would say about me… Continue reading References……Or More Adventures in Job Hunting
Melody Hendrickson, Wherefore Art Thou?
I finally broke down and contacted Jeffrey Lucas at Prime Pay about my reference, since Melody Hendrickson promised me a good one when I left Prime Pay back in 2005. I knew she’d left the company shortly after I did and I was wondering what Jeff was saying about me. It turns out that Jeff… Continue reading Melody Hendrickson, Wherefore Art Thou?
Being Nice Just Does Not Pay…..
Nice girls finish last, and that’s a fact. The last two times I’ve tried being nice I’ve gotten taken advantage of. And every time I let one vehicle out of a parking lot or a side street, five more drivers take advantage of my being nice. First at Saint Vincent De Paul (back on March… Continue reading Being Nice Just Does Not Pay…..
