August was ridiculous. I've learned more about recruiting agencies and job sites than I ever knew existed

And what's sad is that I was one of those desperate people for years, and only JUST realized how crazy it gets. I would get 5 phone calls from people all pitching the same "exclusive" job they have for me, and just needed me to sign a few things to get my info to the right person. I didn't realize how stupid it was until I noticed that they all used the same words, were equally as uneducated, had all NOT read my resume

Thanks! Today was my first day, and it went pretty great!

Hi, 13

CONGRATS on the job offer!!! : )

I can't believe that those job hunter sites try to claim a percentage of your income for the life of your career with a particular company. UGH!!! That is appalling. Monster is aptly named. They are indeed monstrous. : (

Edit: I forgot to ask, but what breed is the "drooly office dog"? I wouldn't worry too much about him. He is probably friendly or they wouldn't allow him in the office around so many people.

Take care!!! : )

Hey Tarnished! The dog is a girl named Marla :). She's actually really, really friendly. I only put that I was fearful of her because she drooled on my skirt, and a sweater that is hand wash only :(. She's a chocolate lab!

Thanks for the congrats! Monster is wild, infested with money-hungry recruiters.

:D

Hi again, 13 : )

Oh, I see why Marla is a bother now. She is a threat to nice clothes but not people. LOL.

I LOVE labs. I've owned 2 yellow labs in my lifetime. They make wonderful pets.
