I'm going to try and muddle through the new player FAQ on their site once more over the weekend because I refuse to believe that I'm now too stupid to figure this stuff out. However... someone really should make a video for a beginning "how to" and a typical login session.

Here's what I did... it may help someone.

Since we were in dire need I went to the professional staffing agencies. Go to a few of them, and recognize that there are manufacturer staffing offices and skilled/office staffing offices. I found as many offices as I could that were looking for data entry monkeys while I continued to apply independently for jobs they also looked for me. I knew that my inexperience and lack of longevity on my resume made it extremely difficult for the professional staffing agency to find me anything. I set my salary requirements low, though, and conceded to a "strictly temporary" job. Then, once I arrived at the office doing a data entry project I acted extremely professional, respectful, inquisitive, and resourceful and they scrambled to find me a position in their company. Given, it's still poor pay but it's a permanent job that I can keep while I continue to go to school. Also, it's building up my resume with that longevity that people really want to see.

Once I get my degrees in a couple of years I'm hopeful that they'll actually be worth the paper they're printed on again and I'll be wanted for an above poverty salary. <3

I can't understand how they thought it'd be a good idea to have another social networking site when facebook/myspace really have taken care of that need in the casual population.

It's rather startling that downtime and me haven't seen much of eachother lately. I've gotten myself a full time 8-5 job in the city and am finally back on track getting my Associates degree at the local college. Even with doing classes online, a lot of my time are taken up by these two things. Then, since my husband has been taking a health and fitness class for part of his degree, we've implemented a healthier lifestyle to our rather sedentary gaming lives. So we've been going to the gym a lot and playing racketball, walking the treadmill, dreaded elliptical machines, and some minor weight lifting to just help tone the body. We've also taken to eating better to help us regain healthy bodies and y'know, healthy cooking takes a LONG FREAKING TIME! Why is this? Hm?

Anyway, that's where I'm at so far. My free time is otherwise taken up with Final Fantasy XI (and once Final Fantasy XIV comes out, I'll be pestering all of you to find out if you're playing and where you're at) and Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility for it's very soothing effects. There's also D&D gaming, but that's become sporadic due to the lack of time commitment and friends going to work out of state/country for awhile.
