It looks like I'm going with the first job offer. The HR lady said she would call me at 11am and no call. I'm kinda anal with promises. It appears they wanted a full time employee and that was their focus. If they do call back (I'm sure they will drag their ass) I'm declining that one due to their lack of organization. Calling someone at almost 9pm sounds janky and then promise to call in the morning seems weird.
Ya I agree. If the company or representative of, doesn't follow through its a turn off for me as well.

Sounds like a wise choice. I hope it works out for you exactly as you envision it.
Thanks! It should and I hope it does work out. I just want to pay the internet bill, food and vape stuff. I told a nurse friend and she said "What? Are you crazy for taking a pay cut!". I explained to her that environment is more important that money. She is still working at the last place I worked and is looking for a job as well.

Kinda like when I left my first husband for the guy who became my 2nd -- the 2nd makes a lot less money, always has, but love, companionship, and good treatment have no monetary value (because they're priceless!) -- I've never regretted that choice!

Good evening all. I hope everyone is doing well or healing up nicely tonight. It’s a rainy yucky night here tonight so I’m going to kick back and play some subnautica on the computer, toss the occasional biscuit and generally decompress from a week full of Mondays.

Been working on my basement workshop all day.

Got 2 cabinet bases with an old folding table on top. Just the top of the table removed all the metal stuff.
And a 4X8 sheet of pegboard behind the workbench.
tomorrow I fasten the top down and work on lighting.
Dark down there.

My new hidey hole. Electronics and such small stuff.
Don't want sawdust all over everything stored in the basement.

Mainly a hidey hole I suppose and a place to put the tools that I acquire.

Sounds like the work shop is coming together nicely.

Yeah pretty much... He's the first person (other than my beloved grandfather who died in 1985) who ever told me "I love you" who didn't try to change me, criticise me, or hurt me in some fashion -- that's pretty hard to say no to! :)
