I was suffering from severe depression after losing my factory job due to the downturn in demand for buggywhips, but things are brighter today; I just received word that a full-time position is available for me, and I plan to begin work bright and early on Monday morning. I paid the employment recruiter big bucks to find an opening, but I'm sure that every penny was worth it. Transitioning from making buggywhips to making buttonhooks for shoes should be a breeze!
Remember dear Bootsie Randy? Our Answerbag pal? She could set you up in a top-of-the-line boot emporium. I'm sure she has an "in" everywhere bootwise. Thank you for your reply and the graphic and Happy Sunday. Do you happen to know of any colleges/universities that train coal miners? Trump says he's gonna bring back back all their jobs. He didn't say when. :(
She WAS here for awhile when I came over from the abandoned Answerbag but from what I heard she and someone on Answermug didn't get along at all so she left. I do miss her. I hope she is well!
I did, I was superseded by a computer. Architects and Engineers stopped using pencils. A computer can analyze CADD plans and produce a BOQ more quickly and MUCH more cheaply than a team of quantity surveyors.
