I start next Tuesday. My current company is going belly up and I think I was about to get laid off. Anyway, the new job is much closer to my house (18 mi opposed to 42) and I'm getting a chance to get more into the employment law/labor law and project side of HR.....NO MORE RECRUITING (y) Yea!

That'll probably equal like an extra hour a day that you get to spend with little JBernas.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

At least......Not to mention it's more money and the benefits are less than half of what I'm currently paying..that's like a raise right there

Less time on the road is a blessing in itself. Good for you, Mrs Bernas.

well done!

Still, I can't wait until we live in a world where robots do all the work and we all live in luxury

work is such a rip-off! The money my agency fleeces of me!!!!!!!!!!!!

A worldwide recruitment agency ban is needed

With gas being 3.50 a gallon, it's not only more time off the road, but more money in my pocket.....that car costs 50 bucks to fill up (and I fill up twice a week :eek: )

You have to fill up twice a week? What kind of gas guzzler do you drive?

Thanks everybody (y)

Same one you do mickill, if I remember correctly (Passat drivers of the world, say what?). I drive almost 100 miles a day though. Sucks.

Ahhh....subtle sarcasm is a little tough to read in black and white ;)

Jabumbo....I don't work for an agency (I don't like those people either....they hound you), but I am in the HR department and handle the recruiting for the company (placing ads, screening resumes, etc.)......I will be glad to move past that.
