Need a Hand?
Your Next Project Starts with Brownstoner
Biff, do you watch Mad Men? I can’t recall if you do. In last week’s episode, the main character, Don Draper, surprised his daughter with tickets to the Beatles concert at Shea Stadium.
bxgrl, I am not being offensive at all. Both you and MM seem to get very emotional about Obama and I think it blinds your / her judgment.
“Seriously, not sure what can help at this point. You’ve gotten great feedback from everyone but her and, from all I’ve heard, she sounds like a very bitter and cruel person whom will likely not be killed by your kindness. As I’ve said before, start looking. No job is worth the stress and abuse you’re taking.”
Biff, thanks, this pretty much sums it up, and I’m definitely starting to network and look. If I don’t have to cancel my day off Monday, I’ll be networking and sending resumes. Ugh. I hate the idea of looking again, and I really like working here. Bad luck of the draw, unfortch.
You have a pretty good handle on my situation, Biff. Couldn’t be because I’ve been talking your ear off ever since she came back from leave, could it??? 😉
Thank you Donatella. This is why I love Farrow and Ball. Limited choices. You want brown? Here are your 3 choices. But I don’t have a F&B budget on this one. I think Martha is taking a similar approach with an edited selection, but I’m not sure I want Home Depot paint
bxgrl, I don’t think etson said anything offensive in his discussion of the merits of Obama getting the NPP.

I took whatever dribs and drabs of house cleaning, house sitting, whatever work I could find to supplement my unemployment and savings
i hope you paid taxes on that!
*rob*
“You have said many times that Bush deregulated the financial services industry.
How?”
Still waiting…..
If you can’t answer the question, perhaps you shouldn’t be saying it?
Is it even true?
I know the answer.
“I’m not dissing the whole program of unemployment, food stamps or welfare. They are a necessity in a civilized society.
I’m saying that they have grown to such a large unwieldy mess that they are full of abuses and the management by the government is to blame.”
Yes, I’m sure there are abuses here and there, but you really can’t blame the large majority of people who want to work, who prolly did work, save, were or want to be self-sufficient, and that’s what I hear you and legion doing.
College football, sure! Always..
LSU / Florida winner??
Can anyone stop Alabama this year??
