I hadn’t thought of that

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I’ve had my fair share of conversations with HR people who are somehow convinced that I’d be more qualified for their IT job if I had finished my Accounting degree instead of quitting college 15 years ago, regardless of the fact that I’ve been doing exactly what they are looking for someone to do for the last 6, but that’s probably another long article sometime when I’m in the mood to rant.

Anyway, even through all of those, it never occurred to me to just hire a hacker to insert me into the alumni database!

    We spent the weekend with Angela’s parents in Findlay.

    Wow, I’m exhausted, and it’s only 9AM. We actually had a good weekend, but a very busy, social weekend for us. Friday night we had my brother, sister in law and their three year old over to watch the HS football game that takes place across the street from our house this time of year….

    So somewhere in the area of 8 months ago I setup a “job search agent” on Dice.com. I was having it send me the IT jobs that were being listed in the Columbus area, since I was thinking about doing some job searching. (It has been put off until next year) Only the search agent…

    I found the Peachtree Forums today and discovered that we’re not the first one’s to have issues printing with this version of Peachtree. I suppose that means more work on that tomorrow to see if we can finally get this working correctly! Speaking of tomorrow, I’ll be up around 6 to take Angela to the…
