Surreal Wedding

Well the part time job at the candy/chocolate/gum/cough drop conglomerate is turning into a full time job. I worked 29.5 hours this past week, and I'm bound to work close to 40 this upcoming week. I soo don't think it's going to last any long time, the job is too easy, and they are paying me way too much.

But hey, that's for them to find out. The people seem nice and the people at Cadbury seem to be quite the international group. They even got a couple of South African kids! Go figure. Of course, they have a company store as well, gotta love those low priced chocolate goods!

Vick and I are off to a wedding of an old Sincoff family friend. To say it will be an experience is putting it mildly. While I quite like the family, the guy who is getting married is the living embodiment of Beavis and Butt-head, at least he was when we went to high school and elementary school together :)

Should be wild to revisit all of those painful high school memories! OH BOY!

You might be wondering

Why I mentioned a chocolate factory in the last posting. Well, Dear Reader, it just so happens that I have been offered a contracting position at a major confectionary company. You can say that they offered me a "sweet" deal. HA HA HA HA HA .

I am not gonna name drop who it is. Those in the know in my life will know who it is, those others who may be browsing.... I'm sure they will figure it out in time.

On a totally different note, Neil Young is looking pretty scraggly these days, right??! I just saw an advertisement for his Greatest Hits album. Sheesh.... it makes you think is it him, or his son who is the autistic one! LOL

Ethan Sincoff & The Chocolate Factory

YES!!

I am back working once again. Let me tell you when it rains, it pours. Today, out of nowhere I got a job offer, and really really really really really great money! In fact, 2 other employers had scheduled interviews w/ me, and I had to cancel them, unfortunately. The money was that great. We're gonna be swimming in it!

About time I wrote about some good gnews, right????? Now, only if John Kerry could have been elected :)

Turn, Turn , Turn (the Byrds Song)

Yes, in the spirit of healing and reconciliation that has stormed America, it is time for another Post here in the blog of Ethan. Actually, I don't feel like America is healed, and I STILL think George W. Bush is a cunt, and all of Florida and Ohio should be ashamed of themselves, but I digress here. :) I'm past that now.

Things are looking up, up up on the job front. There are several major players that are interested in bringing me into their midst's. One of them is a major Non Profit Trust, based in New York City (and, YES I think I can work in a brownstone on the Upper East Side!), the other is at a big time confectionery Company (nice peeps, love the chocolate and the gum), and the third is a major Mail Order Pharmaceutical Company.

Now, the reason why I don't name names is that in order to avoid the previous weeks' drama, I don't want some Schmegegee Googling me, and saying "Ethan why do you reference us" ..... So I'm not about to !

I hit the gym today and did 60 minutes on the cross trainer, yet I still can not sleep. Go figure.

Watched a disturbing Brazilian Documentary called "Bus 174" Tonight. They really do have the problemo with the street kids over there!! Alas, that is President Lula's problem, and not mine!

A Funny thing happened on the way to the telephone

I don't know if you noticed it, but the old blogster here is a few postings short. That's right, apparently the company I temped at (and we all know who that is, I mean, I write this for myself, and Vicki!) did not like the way they were referenced . They asked the agency that put me there to have me change/delete postings that very vaguely mentioned people..

As opposed to making a whole schpiel about "free speech" and stuff, I just deleted the postings. For some reasons, the postings still do show up under my profile when you click on the profile, however the postings themselves are deleted, wacky, wacky stuff, right? It would be nice if the agency were calling me repeatedly going "Ethan, ohmigod, we have multiple job postings from clients we want to put you in touch with"... but that tain't the case me boyo!

Props to Yasser Arafat for being in a coma!
