Hey ya'll,
Just wanted to let you guys know that I finally got a job. I begin work on Tuesday Sept 2 at the Stokes County Government Center. I am really excited about it. I had actually began school 2 weeks ago and then I was contacted by Stokes County. So, then I withdrew from school so I could begin work.
How's everything going for everyone else?
Chat Later,....Cindy

Hi Josh & Cindy
Josh - how did the car sale's job go? What dealership?
Cindy - Hope you find a job but Global Logistics was one of the courses I was thinking of, was told there would be a demand for the job.
My job is going well, I finished my 90 day probation last week. Now if gas will just stay at $4 a gal I will be OK for now.

Car sales
Hi all,
I might be going back into car sales soon. I spoke with the owner of a local dealership recently and things went very well. I was told he is interested in me. Not many people are able to buy vehicles right now but I have to get back to work. So wish me luck I hope things are good for everyone!

Running out of things?
Hey Everybody,
I have been wondering if it is just me or what? But it seems that almost everyday someone here says "We are out of _____" or "We need some more ____". I guess I was so used to stopping by the store when I was already at town and picking up things that I knew we were low on, it has finally started to show. Now, in an extreme effort to save GAS, I limit myself to going to town once (maybe twice) a week. My list just gets longer and longer. I take Brianna to the bus stop every morning (I'm still getting up at 5:30 everyday). Then I stay here and "do things" like paint, clean out cabinets, or stuff that you just don't have time do when you are working.
What are you guys up to? The ones of you that were lucky and found work, how's everything going?

The Test"
Well, I just couldn't stand it. I went to ESC and took the test today. So here are my results.
Individual Profile Analysis:
Business Detail = 67
Plants/Animals and Humanitarian tied with a 45
Leading and Influencing = 43
Accommodating was a big fat ZERO. I guess I won't get to be a Wal-mart Greeter" after all, haha
For you artists out there don't worry about me being any competition to you. My score was only a 14 in the artistic catagory.
On the Aptitude Score:
Highest was Form Perception with a 121 and Verbal Aptitude 118. My general learing ability was 119. For Numerical Aptitude I scored a 108 and Clerical Perception 105.
When I was interviewed after my test, the interviewer suggested the following professions for me to consider: administrative, court clerk, paralegal, legal secretary, bookkeeping, accounting or payroll clerk and a few others. So now I will go to RCC and then to Forsyth Tech to meet with their councelors and they will guide me in the right direction. I'll choose one or the other and then they will set up a schedule to send to Raleigh for "approval".
Maybe I'll get this done next week (in between my painting which was postponed this week)

Hey everybody,
I plan on taking "The Test" the first of next week. I've been busy this week trying to get a mistake corrected on my "money". The TRA people sent me a letter and the $$$ amount was over $100.00 more than what ESC said I would draw. I was hopeing that the ESC was wrong, but the TRA amount was wrong, "Bummer". Then, I spent almost 2 days trying to get a call through to an 866 # because they said they needed "additional info" for my initial sign up claim. Any way, I'm starting the job search thing for this week and next week I'll let you guys know my test results. I can hardly wait to see what I'll be when I grow up!

What was your Career Scope Assessment?
Josh and Cindy both talked about their "CareerScope Assessment Profile. What surprising information did everyone discover about themselves?
Mine said Artisthic 71% -- Go figure that out.
Scientific 100% -- NASA here I am, come and get me!
Plants and Animals 27% - Don't tell all my critters about this - they'll all want new homes. I think it had something to do with not wanting to work in a poultry factory or a pet store.
Their assessment of me for areas of interest are - - Scientific, Leading/Influencing, Artistic and Humanitarian.
APTITUDE
• General Learning 95 percentile - so you can teach and old dog new tricks.
• Verbal - 69 percentile - so I can talk more than average.
• Numerical - dropping here with a 62
• But Spatial Aptitude I got a 99 percentile - I can think in 3D whopii sign me up for a 3D graphic program - PLEASE!!!!!
• Form Perception 87 - What did those pictures look like? Some were so blurry I am not sure anyone could tell one shape from another. They need a new printer.
I love what they said I should be
An Editor, Creative Director, PrintMaker, Restorer or paper and prints, Paste-Up Artist, Etcher/Photoengraving, Stripper/Lithographic, Electronic Prepress system operator (been there done that) Photographer/Lithographic, Chemist or Environmental Analyst, Forest Ecologist, Biochemist or some sort of Engineer, or how about a Psychologist. Programmer, Software Engineer, Computer Operations, Lawyer, Advertising Manager, Warehouse Manager, Customer Service Manager. The only 9 I got was for a Hearing Officer just exactly what is that?
So what are you suppose to be when you grow up.
Da Proofer here with a update
Hello peoples,
I took the Career Scope test yesterday and I am pleased with the results. Going in I didn't know what to expect as I have never taken anything like this before. Scores between 80 - 120 are in the average range. I scored 131 on form perception & done well on all other categories of the aptitude test. I had almost convinced myself that the test would determine my time would best be suited as a ice cream scooper at Baskin Robbins or picking up road kill for the state. I married a redneck so I am sure someone on my wifes side of the family knows how to make road kill pizza so that might not be to bad. (Can't argue with free meat) Haha I made a funny! I'm glad to see some of you have found work. ( Congrats ) I am planning to go to school but I don't know if I can as my wife has been out of work with a health concern since October. If I got a job offer at this point I think I will take it as money is tight & hope to better myself education wise later on. For those of your who don't remember me my name is Josh and i am a recovering Libertyholic.
Take care,
Josh

Hi from Cindy
Hey Everybody,
Well, I had been saying for a couple of years now, that I was "flying under the radar" every time there was a lay-off. So we (my family) had "off and on" tried to get prepared. Regardless of how hard you try, you're never actually prepared, for the mental part or the money part. But anyway, I had told my husband, Ted, that I wanted to paint the inside of our house, while I was out of work and trying to decide what to do. In mid-February, we bought a bunch of paint, brushes, rollers, etc. So, on March 3rd, I got busy. So far, I have painted our kitchen, hallway, bathroom, and livingroom. This week our daughter, Brianna, is out of school for spring break, so we have been able to spend some time together. I've been working on bedroom closets while she's here to help me, especially with hers. We took everything out of them and I painted the insides of all 3. That was tough! Next week I'll paint our bedroom and the following week, I'll finish up with her room. Then the painting job will be done for several years! The walls are not so bad but the trim work and ceilings have been the hardest. Oh yea, Ted showed me how to use a caulking gun. That was actually fun. Well, maybe not fun-fun.
We have also started our garden. So far, we have planted cabbage, onions, green peas and potatoes. It's bad when you go to the grocery store and buy a can of peas for $1.08, but you can buy seeds to grow enough to last all year for about $2.00. Canning is a lot of hard work, but it is nice to step to the basement and get your veggies in the winter.
I have to go to ESC Monday to start my signing up. I've checked on the school thing. There are a lot of rules, regulations, deadlines, etc and it seems every step has to be approved by Raleigh. Since I am undecided on what sort of classes to take, I have to take a test to let a computer program decide what I am best suited for,..... I think it will be interesting to see what the computer program says. Maybe it will say I could become a rocket scientist, or a brain surgeon (hahaha). I'll post again, when I find out what the results are.

Jury Duty
Well so far jury duty is a breeze!
As required I called Sunday night to find out when I was to report for duty. Yes my civic duty to listen to evidence and decide if some one is innocent or guilty of who knows what dyer crime.
Any way the recorded message told me that Rockingham County did not need me or any other jury member for Monday. Well hip hip horray! I have a free day to do what ever I want to do. I could have been at my new job, but no that was postponed for good of the free world and democracy. I will take the free day and enjoy it by cleaning out the chicken coops. The joys of living in the country.
It is nice to know that in my little corner of the state crime is not running rampant and clogging up the court dockets. My only instructions, to call back on Monday night after 5 pm.
So once again after 5 pm, I called to find out - when am I to report for duty sir. I am so glad that Rockingham county is a sleepy little county far from big city crime. I also have Tuesday off . . . what luck! And the coops are all clean! The barn was cleaned up last week so with little else to put straight I guess I will tackle the biggest mess of all . . . gasp . . . my bedroom! Run for the hills and back up the dump truck.
Wed, March 19 - the saga continues
I finally received instructions on when and where to go for my Jury Duty. The original summons was for Monday, Courtroom-A. You already know that I did not have to show up on either Monday or Tuesday. Today was the magic day. The recorded telephone message - after playing it 3 times so that I could understand the muffled message - instructed me to arrive at Courtroom 'C' at 8:30 in the morning.
Now if you worked with me as all of you have you know that I have to be early, just in case. Like the world would come to an end if I was late once in a while. Any way I arrived at 8:10, failed the metal detector at the visitors entrance, got the wand treatment and never found out what tripped the metal detector. Had my case searched, was carrying a copy of JavaScript & Ajax sixth edition. I thought I would learn some web scripting while I was waiting. Last time I had jury duty was in Cincinnati and I was there all day for 5 days any only on one trial. The rest of the time I was in a room with all the other jurors with nothing to do but watch a TV. So I came prepared for a long boring day.
I was directed to Courtroom-C at the other end of the building and on the second floor. Oh the Rockingham County Court House is an OLD building no elevators - keep this in mind. So I get up to the second floor, Courtroom-C is locked, I park my butt on the steps going up to the third floor and wait. A few more very happy (not) people arrive and wait with me in the hall. Eventually an official looking person shows up to inform us that the trial has been moved to Courtroom-D. First floor at the front of the building. We all trudge downstairs and wait in the hallway outside of Courtroom-D. This room was quickly opened and we all filed in as plopped down on wooden church pews.
I opened my book and started to read again. About 15 mins latter a bailiff come in, tells us the person up stairs (Courtroom-C) doesn't know what they are talking about and send us back up the stairs to the second floor. Of course by now all the church pews in Courtroom-C are filled and I have to stand and try to fill out a form that said who I am so that I can get credit for showing up. Try writing on a piece of paper with a ball point pen while holding the paper up on the wall. Some one handed me a bible to use for a desk, I thanked him and scribbled out the required information and returned the bible to one of the fortunate seated jurors.
The judge shows up thanks us all, tells us its not really Jury Duty but Jury Service. Right, if you must know it is Jury you gotta do it or you're gonna be in trouble. The court 'some body or other' puts in a VCR tape in the TV and the judge leaves the room again. We watch a 16 min 12 second or was it 12 min and 15 second . . . movie on what a Juror's responsibilities are. So I am propped up against the wall just wanting to slide down to the floor and sit down and doze off during a high school civics class. After the movie the bailiff informs us that the bathrooms are down in the basement two flight of stairs down the two back up . . . if anyone needs one. She (yep a female bailiff) tells me that I can't keep my case if I am chosen for a jury and that I will need to take it to my car at the next break, while the lady next to me has a huge purse and nothing was said about it. OK, it's your court room I'll take it to my truck. Of course I don't have any pockets for my keys and wallet but I'll just hold it in my hand all day if necessary.
The judge returns, tells us the lawyers for the two parties are considering having the judge make a decision on the case and waiving the jury trial. To be continued. The judge has us all sworn in and leaves the court room again.
The big purse lady complains that she has things to do is not accustom to waiting. I inform her that she is a juror and she really can't do much about it but wait. Return the judge. The lawyers have agreed to waive the jury trial, the Judge thanks us all and dismisses us for the rest of the week. Big purse lady now lets everyone know that she was really looking forward to being a juror. I suggest she volunteer her services and maybe they will let her serve next week. Gathering my thing I quickly exit the building before anyone can change their minds again.
So there you have it, the whole sordid affair. Now I don't have to worry about Jury duty until 2010.
Of course that 2 hour period (my entire time spent on Jury Duty) delayed my starting work by two weeks. I could have started on the 10th if it wasn't for my Jury Summons.
So what is everyone else up to?

I ALSO Have a Job
I start Monday the 17th at M.J. Soffe in Fayetteville. Pretty much doing what I was doing at Liberty except its more building art along with color separating and doing some design as well. The pay is ok but there is also, (I'm told), opportunity for lots of overtime pay. I know you other artists reading this might not know what those words mean coming from Liberty, (HA!) but at some places, when you work over your 40 hours, you get something called "overtime pay" which is time and 1/2 of your regular hourly pay.
Also found me a little 2 bedroom house to rent in Hope Mills - which is right beside Fayetteville - that I have to move into this weekend. Everything is going very fast. Here's the house:
Good luck to everyone and start posting some stuff on here so we all know what you guys are up to!

NAFTA - TAA Qualifing Health Insurance
As some of you may remember from out meeting at Liberty, the TAA will cover 65% of qualifying insurance. From the information I have gathered the ONLY qualifying insurance will be COBRA or BlueCross BlueShield of North Carolina's "Blue Advantage" programs.
The 65% that TAA will cover must be claimed as income on your tax returns, however, according to my tax preparer (who is a CPA) there is also a 65% tax credit on self insured policies. So the two figures will cancel each other out as far as taxable income.
If you opt for the BlueCross BlueShield "Short Term Health Care" policy please note that it is NOT covered by the TAA program. You can start with the "Short Term Health Care" and switch to "Blue Advantage" at a latter date and it (The Blue Advantage policy) will be eligible for TAA assistance.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT AND CONFIRM WITH THE NAFTA-TAA PROGRAM ADVISORS! 336-634-5600

WELCOME!
Hi everyone,
After saying goodbye to all my fellow employees at Liberty I knew that we would have to keep in touch. I don't want us to all drift apart and lose touch with each other.
Post you job search up and downs, your education direction if you are going that way, ask questions (someone else may have the same issue). Need a shoulder, a cyber hug or just let off steam and vent, lets give each other a helping hand.
Wondering what those symbols at the top mean? It is the word FREEDOM in Langash. The first known use of the word freedom in a political context dates back to the 24th century BC, in a text describing the restoration of social and economic liberty in Langash, a Sumerian city-state. Enough of the history lesson . . .
Now let's not be shy and join right in. Posting is by invitation only, so don't worry about outsiders jumping in. If' I missed sending an invitation to anyone please let me know.
