...Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite. Or waiting around for Friday night or waiting perhaps for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil or a better break or a string of pearls or a pair of pants or a wig with curls or another chance. Everyone is just waiting...

Gainful Employment, Finally

I started working yesterday. I am apparently going to be in the classroom component of my orientation for approximately two weeks, though it could be longer. A lot of the people who should be training us have been deployed to the gulf coast because of Gustav, or are being deployed to Florida in preparation for Hanna, Ike, Josephine...
So far I have no complaints. There are five other new people, and none of them seem like tools. Only one other person in training is going to the Riverside Division (which is AMR's largest division with about 500 field employees).

Overall, I have to say I am glad to be working again.
