A yellow orb poked it's way out and then this happened along with some yoga @Sans Souci and @HouCuseChickie. @MySmallWorldof4 I used store bought bias binding for the neck and arm holes, sometimes lazy is good lol

In other news.
Got the email from the cruise company.. I didnt make it.

I'm definitively disappointed and scared in terms of financials.

noone of my leads have helped me much on my attempt to move to Canada either.
A lot seem interested when I mention my experience. but as soon they hear or read I'm Mexican looking to emigrate.. poof.. silence.

So sorry about this. Hope you have better luck with a new job and move.

James won't eat well done steak. Runs and hides under large rock.

And that is the way it should be eaten 🍽

Thanks.
I'm going to see if I an get a temporal job somewhere with a decent salary just to establish myself while I keep trying elsewhere.

 

[Cesar R M]

So terribly sorry. Is there a headhunter group that can help you?

I'm unsure about that. This is the only company that they use to hire nationals of my country to cruise companies.
As for Canadian jobs, I have been applying to a few jobs in Canada using online resources.
It would help me more if I had more contacts with people who know people who are in management. Because not many companies are keen to try "untested" people like me.

Similar to Soarin?

Sort of.. you do have to wear 3d glasses, and you are sitting forward on a motorcycle style seat... the seat moves some, to simulate the dips of flying, so there is movement, but I don't remember anything jerky. I'll watch YouTube and let you know in case you don't want any spoilers on that one. Honestly it's so worth it if you can!

 

[Figgy1]

I need to stay away from IG now I want this top

 

[Rista1313]

Keep trying throughout the day though. When I first grabbed CRT, I got 8:20, but then later that afternoon I snagged 8:05

I'm now at 910am... getting there!

ps. I rewatched the FOP video and read some comments... everyone agrees with my memory.. very smooth.

This one sounded so promising, and we were all really rooting for you.
Prayers that you'll find something even better, soon...!!!

Most places over here won't accept credit cards....only debit. So you have to use either cash or debit card. It's a pain sometimes when you need to buy something big. You can't buy it and make payments on it every month....you have to buy everything outright.

Not completely a terrible thing. It keeps people living within their means. I can see how it could be a problem though when you need to make an expensive purchase.

My mom was this way with salt for a couple months in my childhood. She'd even buy salt free saltine crackers. Why do they even make those?!?!

They were made for what was my dads favorite evening snack. Crackers in Milk. Just like cereal, but, cheaper. Actually I used to eat it with him and I loved it. Still do, but, I very seldom eat any of it now. I would but I don't want to throw away that many calories. Sometimes when I am feeling very depressed, it is a handy comfort food.

I put it on the no list, thanks guys! I kept Speedway (if it's open when we go) though.

I think Speedway is worse then Test Track. Test Track does have some stop and go, but, nothing more intense then taking a ride in your car. Speedway doesn't go very fast, but, as soon as one of those top notch 4 year old drivers smack into you it does create a bit of a "whiplash" action.

My son in law eats steak only if it is done to the consistency of shoe leather. BTW, it tastes the same as shoe leather as well.

But you have a resume as well as previous employers who can vouch for you.

I wish, this probably was my biggest opportunity.
And I felt confident because the interview went very well and the language used seemed like I had passed such interview.
But like I said, it seems they filled the position first in another country.
There was no way they could have interviewed the mexican lot that fast.

Doesn't seem to mean much I'm afraid.

My resumes I have been throwing around had full contact and recommendation letters.
