Congratulations on the new job TB! Family first! Work hard and soon you'll be able to afford a computer at home.
We'll be here when you get back <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

E-Bay seller name is Blairtg, stands for Blair Technology Group. I paid 78.00 for mine and 76.00 for my daughters computer. Bought them about 2 months ago. Plugged them in and booted up ,went straight to the internet. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
They always have tons of Dell refurbished desktop computers starting at .99 cents. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />
Just a thought. These days you can almost steal a desktop on E-bay. If not trad, please just P.o.P. in from time to time till the fortunes turn!
God bless you and your beautiful family. May your new job bring all the security and stability that you all so richly deserve. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
Peace.
Some people just never learn.

The good news is I just landed my career job. Its a great job at a coal fueled power plant here in Page, AZ. This plant pays great, has amazing benefits including an outstanding 401K program and nows the time to get in since their losing half of their employees to retirement within the next five years. That means I can move up the ladder really quick if I do well. Needless to say my family and I are very excited, this will give us the financial security we need for the rest of our lives. Here's the catch though; there's a 10 week payed class that I have to pass to be officially hired on. I don't forsee any problems with passing it, I'm a pretty good student (3.75 college GPA) but its pretty intense so here's hoping.
Now for the bad news. My current job keeps me on the computer all day so thats how I am able to be a somewhat regular contributer to this forum. I don't have a computer at home so you guys won't be seeing me too often anymore. I'll try to pop in to say hi every once in awhile (and of course to check on knife releases) but I won't be a regular again until we get a computer at home with the internet (which might be awhile, like towards the end of the year). My new job starts the 11th of June so next week will be my last week as a regular here.
Thanks to the yard for being such pals. This isn't goodbye, just a see ya later for awhile. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> That's tremendously good news.....Congratulations Get focused and pass that class Dan

You have your priorities straight for someone with a young family. You will do great on your test and I am sure everything will work out fine for you. I am down here in the valley if you need any assist from me. Good luck.

Congrats. Good luck on the class. Show up to work early and use the PC there. Showing up early makes a good impression too. Lunch hour is another opportunity.

Work may have one of the site firewalls that tries to make it so you can't visit with your pals because the URL has the word knive in it. Here's a little trick to beat those annoying system administrators: use TinyURL. www.tinyurl.comGet the tinyurl and then click on the new URL <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
