I can't believe I did this. My financial aid check just cleared today ( ;D) and I bought plane tickets to visit one of my online friends next weekend. We've been wanting to meet up for a while, but we keep having barriers...so I decided to go ahead and just get them, with her approval. I must be nuts.  :laugh:

good luck with it. :)

I just saw this. I hope it turns out to be a blast.

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

I should have taken less Xanax getting very fuzzy  but it's better that the meltdown that was coming :-\

Well over half the questions.
It was twenty pages of questions, many of them hypothetical, ten to twenty questions per page, depending on the complexity of the answer choices. I have taken several of these lately and I did not answer this one until I had read every question, in order to try to get the general drift of their philosophy. I have failed to qualify in several other cases and I suspect it was because I tried to be honest and portray my own needs and preferences in the answers.

This test, and one other whose company I have heard from, I tried to fool and it may have helped. I just don't know yet. I have only done this twice. All the rest of the personality profiles, I have answered honestly. (I just looked - I have put in nineteen applications, since June, and only two did not require any personality profiling)

Again, I may be jinxing myself. I'm sure glad I'm only lightly superstitious.

That, right there, is a huge part of it. I have been losing confidence with every smartassed twenty-something that rejected me, all the while, me knowing that I could do their bosses' jobs with no problems. I just don't get many chances to even prove that I'm smart enough to do their simple work. Fifty-ish really sucks in the job market.

 :violin:


I'm not like some guy getting a job, because his dad cut off his allowance, though. It's my son's and daughter's needs that are influencing me. A kid's simple needs seem to carry more weight than a dad's barking does.

I've never heard of these personality profile tests. What kind of work are you applying for that would require something like that??

Have you found a job yet?? You're prety talented in many areas, I'd imagine you could find a job doing most anything. Are you just looking for the RIGHT job?? I know what you mean about being able to do the job of people in charge of you.... happened to me a few times in the Marines.
