		On The Other Other Hand From Our "Good News, Bad News, Good News Dept." Had a great first interview with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation yesterday afternoon. Ironically, two of the three temp agencies I'm signed up with wanted to send me to interview for the same position, but even if I don't get this one (a three to six month assignment), there are two more similar positions available that I might get a shot at. Last night my bus was broken into - again - while attending a charity event; this time they smashed out the right front wing window, stole some CD's (which for whatever good it's worth I had already backed up to MP3 files in light of previous break-ins), tore the CD player out of the dashboard, and generally made a big ole' mess of the interior. This morning I drove it to an auto glass shop, but due to the age of the vehicle, they can't just replace the glass, but need to R&R the entire wing window assembly, which unfortunately is no longer available after-market. Managed to track down a used unit, which I'll pick up tomorrow. In the meantime, I'm having a car alarm system installed; after two breakins and a significant amount of body damage inflicted on my vehicle in less than six months, I figure it's time to bite the bullet and make the investment. This IS why we own credit cards, right? Finally, just got a call for a second interview on the AFTRA job, scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. So, maybe I'll soon be able to afford all these darned car repairs... Posted byCOMTE on 11:17 AM
