Thanks

Awwwww.... lonely? I am also a little bit... hubby is at work and my son is staying with my parents for a week or so... so it is very quiet around here...

We'll be 'not lonely' together

That sounds nice.

I'm not doing anything constructive today. I've had a long week with all those interviews and callbacks so today I am just lounging around the house and doing nothing. I did walk to the convenience store, and then went to the grocery store, but that is about it.

Good for you M.

**Mio** · 07-18-2008, 07:09 PM

I just figured that with all I've been doing lately and I know I will have a job relatively soon, I just need to sit down and relax.

We were trying to watch the Bucket List, but then the cable box spazzed out and apparently that movie is screwed up according to the cable company; so now my dad and I are watching Rambo. Dare I say it's good so far, but very very violent an very very gory. The other Rambo movies are tamer than this one!

~ Janet ~ · 07-18-2008, 07:18 PM

You definitely deserve it.

Have you seen Flashpoint yet? I haven't watched it last week, but so far I'm liking it.

**Mio** · 07-18-2008, 09:08 PM

I tried watching it tonight but Rambo ran into it and I caught like one second of the ending.

~ Janet ~ · 07-19-2008, 10:02 AM

It was good. It's nice seeing Enrico Colantoni on tv again.

Hey Labrats! I just saw Batman: Dark Night and it was awesome!! I can't believe in two weeks I going to be in London. I better start packing.

**Astra** · 07-20-2008, 04:56 PM

Karen -- I've heard that movie is AWESOME... It got 4 stars I noticed in USA Today...

Ooooh London... what fun! How long are you gonna be there again?

**Mio** · 07-23-2008, 10:15 AM

Hello labrats! How is it going? It looks pretty dismal outside as a system is moving in and we're supposed to get a thunderstorm today.

I got the results back from the personality test I took at the call back I had last week... I am above intelligent, well organized, have a keen abiity for detail, I am focused, I know what customer service is and strive to give the best customer service experience one could recieve, I am personably, friendly and a good thinker.

Okay, so does the first few results make me a serial killer?

Serial killers are above intelligent, well organized, keen ability for detail and focused.

Oh noes!

~ Janet ~ · 07-23-2008, 10:41 AM

I know I recognized the above intelligence factor

I wasn't too sure but you did strike me as fairly organized, it's hard to judge a person's focus if you only talk to them online, you strike me as someone who knows what you don't want to be treated like and in turn will treat people with the same respect (definite plus for customer service, in my opinion), yes, yes, and yes.

Last time I took any sort of personality test I was told (oh so shockingly) that I'm an introvert.

I do know that I see myself, in terms of relating to characters, as a Donna Noble or a Ron Weasley. What does that say about me? Donna, by the way, is the type who will say "what can I do? I'm not special, I'm just a temp from Chiswick." But aside from myself seeing me this way my friends online see me this way too.

Finally, I've been searching for another job, I applied for a temporary job at a university bookstore, the pay isn't too hot (minimum wage) but I think I'd kick ass at it. Keep your fingers crossed.

**Mio** · 07-23-2008, 12:04 PM

Why thank you Janet!

I think mine said I'm an extrovert. I was like, "What? Life of the party?!"

~ Janet ~ · 07-24-2008, 07:26 PM

Wow. I think if I was labelled as an extrovert I'd e "umm, I think I got the wrong results."

So I shall be working at a large English university bookstore for 2-3 weeks from late August into September. My mom told my brother-in-law and he was all "can she get a discount? Will they order books for her?"

I get where he's coming from though... College textbooks are outrageously priced

Congrats on the job by way!

Yep... you're definitely sounding like an 'organized offender'.... Sounds like we're cut from a similar cloth as far as your results go... I love taking those kind of tests... (I took a bunch in a psych. testing course I took years ago... Fun!)
