Darts
Saturday, March 21st, 2009 | Author:

Having played the game of darts throughout my life, I have become fairly good at it. It just happened that I was at a local sports bar with my boyfriend recently to watch the big game. After the game they were sponsoring a darts tournament. Being as that I was interested, I decided to sign up. I won my first two matches fairly easily and was pretty warmed up. The third match was pretty close but I won out in the end. Only one last man to beat now.

Apparently this guy was on top of his game and had gone through the competition easily up till now. I shot my first round and came away with a great score. After that, the wheels fell off as they say and I tanked for the rest of my turns. This guy proceeded to wipe up the floor with me and that was that! Anyway, it was a lot of fun and there’s always next time!

Helping others…
Saturday, March 21st, 2009 | Author:

One of my duties at my job is to hire new people. This includes the office personnel as well as the people who will work in the back (the shop). Many of the applications we receive for the shop are people without college education, driver’s licenses, or even sometimes without Bank accounts. While these people may be good workers, sometimes they can cause problems with a lack of ability in cashing their checks.

One of the best ways I’ve found to deal with this situation is to recommend a prepaid debit card. This can solve a lot of headaches for me as well as our employees. The good thing about these cards is that we are able to take advantage of direct deposit. This can save our workers from having to go to the bank or paying fees to cash their checks. Some employees choose to have a prepaid credit card. In some instances, this will help to rebuild their credit rating.

I don’t know where they get it, but sometimes employees will come to me with cash and want me to put it on their cards. I tell them it’s easy to do that themselves. There are thousands of places to load the cards. A few of the employees even have their own prepaid MasterCard’s. This allows them to use their cards anywhere that MasterCard is accepted. I’m glad to be able to help these people. It also makes my job a lot easier and lets me focus on the many other responsibilities I have.

Cosmo

The new Cosmo magazine came out today, I really enjoy reading it. My boy friend always “runs for the hills” when he sees me with it. Trying to get him to take some time to answer questions about our relationship is like torture to him. I don’t understand why some men find it so difficult to reveal how they are feeling. I think it’s a great way to find out new things about each other! Oh well, I’ll get him later. I always do.
