It's been a weird couple of days. Monday my dad called while i was at work to tell me that a highschool classmate of mine died Sunday of a heart attack. it's really hard to imagine a 25-year-old athlete dying of a heart attack...especially one I had known most of my life. It's not that we really ran with the same crowds, but when you spend ( Read more... )

The company that I interviewed for the Accounting Assistant position never responded at all to me, which I find rude and incredibly frustrating. No phone call, no e-mail, not so much as a rejection letter. I understand not sending rejection letters to every ( Read more... )
