Went in for my second interview for the Health&Safety/HR position this morning. It's a smallish (100 employees) family-run business that sells, rents, and services Big Ass Tonka Trucks various pieces of heavy equipment ( Read more... )

During my lunch break, I had three pinecones bounce off where his head would normally have been, landing squarely on my book each time ( Read more... )
