schulzie @schulzie (4061) • United States 8 Feb 11

What are you cooking for dinner tonight? I'm making burritos and enchiladas and guacamole and homemade tortilla chips. Also for the people who hate Mexican food (I can't imagine that) I'm making ravioli with red tomato sauce....

Sailor I would have to choose my current profession of a Truck Driver. I enjoy being paid to travel and I like seeing the sights of the country. I also don't have to deal with many people outside my realm on a regular basis.

Sailor Looking at the current state of the young people today you can almost understand where the father was coming from. But there is/ was a much better way to accomplish his goal than utilizing the home pet. I especially believe that no matter where or how this...

How do you choose a career path?

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 22 Dec 07

Both my husband and myself are in similar situations. We both have so many interests that we are not quite sure which career path to take in order to finish college. Any ideas about how to choose?

Sailor Try not to look at the money as hard as that may be, but look at what makes you happy in life. For me that makes it much easier to go to work in the morning. There is nothing wrong with making money at something you like to do.

How do you get a job with a school system?

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 22 Dec 07

We will be moving at the end of this school year. I would love to get an office job at the school or a close by school to where my son is so that I don't have to pay daycare. I have spoken to people who work for schools and for...

Sailor It all depends on what level of school you are looking to work for. Yes a solid reference is great, but most of the city and county school boards will allow you to call the recruitment/human resources office and request a job listing in which they will send...

Are license plates with GETOSAMA on them wrong?

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 29 Nov 07

The New York State DMV think so. AFTER issuing the plates to a retired NYPD officer, the SMV is asking for the plates to be returned. What is you out take on this? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,313725,00.html

wrong

Sailor I think it is wrong, because we are supposed to be teaching peace not hate, and how many of us really know he is behind all of this. Don't get me wrong, but we only have the word of the gov't. who isn't exactly truthful.

A bit of information for those looking for contact work

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 2 Jun 07

Call temp agencies! I know that sounds crazy, but both my husband and myself just got two excellent contract, work at home jobs from a local temp agency.

Sailor Depending on the work I have always found that a Company called "Labor Ready", was the best because when you are in dire straights, they are the best. They pay you the same day you work.

Saving accounts

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 5 Nov 07

Do you have one? If so, who do you bank through and what kind of interest are you getting? I have been heavily looking into MMA Savings and have found a few banks that look good until you realize that I am thinking about going...

Sailor Look into some out of the country banks, they tend to provide higher interest, plus you gain some money right away because you are depositing U.S. funds. As far as here, check online into Flying J.com. It is primarily services for truckers and travelers, but...

Bed matress sizes

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 8 Nov 07

Does anyone know if a Double bed is the same size as a Full bed or the same size as a Queen bed?

5 responses

Sailor To me a double seems to be almost the same as a Queen, but they claim it isn't. So I to have began to wonder. If your looking for size I believe it's safe to go with a Calif. King. Supposedly the largest non custom mattress.

Cat Genie auto washing litter box

sedel1027 @sedel1027 (17846) • Cupertino, California 11 Nov 07

Anyone own one of these? Do they work? I am very tempted to try it out but for over $100, that is too much of a risk for us right now.

Sailor I don't own one, but to me it seems a lot less problematic to do the usual scoop and clean occasionally with your average pine cleaner.
