If so...what kind?

I haven't gotten any yet But, I usually pick little candy bars and stuff that I wanted to get when I was a kid

I always go to my parents' house for Halloween to hand out candy, since I live in an apartment-style condo. Not sure how many kids I would get coming to my door. I enjoy seeing the little kids in their cute costumes, plus my 2 nephews go over to my parents' house as well.

I usually go to my mom's to hand out candy too. I live in an upper flat, so I don't get kids coming to my place. I buy some of the candy, though, to help out my mom. She usually gets hundreds of kids!
It's so fun to see all of the little ones

It sure is! My parents usually get around 100 kids, but sometimes a little less than that.

I've been bad this year...I haven't gotten a pumpkin or anything so far!

Usually I'm all in the holiday spirit.

I understand, I haven't been in the spirit either. I think it's being out of a job that is making me feel this way.

I love your avatar, by the way.

psychodelicide said:

I'm out of a job too... Must be the reason!

Thanks...I thought that the avatar would help my mood

You're welcome. Let's hope we both find jobs soon.

I've been praying too. How's it going for you? I just had a great interview today and I have to do a writing test (I'm a journalist/communications officer) and submit some of my portfolio and have ANOTHER interview (that will be the third one for this job) and hopefully I'll know within three more weeks. I really want this one...it seems just wonderful

Good luck to you, I hope you get that job, it sounds great. Things have been slow for me as far as getting interviews go (as they have been for everyone). I just have to hang in there and keep plugging away.

psychodelicide said:

Thanks I'm sorry to hear that things have been slow for you. What field are you in?

Administrative assistant, been doing it for 24 years. Problem is that the jobs that are open are only willing to pay $10-$12 per hour, which is too low for someone like me.

psychodelicide said:

I know... It seems that a lot of companies are wanting to hire people with no experience or people right out of college so they can pay them less.

So true. Companies look for ways to save money, especially now with the economy being so bad.

I'll start the bidding at $9!!!

It's not cheap you know.



(Is it bad I bought 3 bags of Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Miniatures and I never have trick-or-treaters?)

subhuman09 said:

YES, it's bad. You need to join RPBC Anon.

applekisses said:

I figure I can give a bag or two to my mom so she can have extra to pass out to the kids in the neighorhood.



(I might actually do that. I think.)

applekisses said:

Sure as hell not me Applekisses....

I've been looking unsuccesfully in the same field as you for the last few months. Only had one interview so far. Graduated recently with an Applied Comm. - PR degree, I have consulting and contract experience, but nobody's giving a damn. I'm glad we don't live in the same city though! Less competition. GRrrrrr.

Anyway, do you want to give me some money?

My haddock is famous around here
the kids come from as far as 100
km to get one.

I wish I could, hon.

I've got a degree in Journalism and years of experience in both newspaper writing and PR...it's tough out there!

applekisses said:

Hmm... that's strange...

A company out of Detroit called me earlier today and asked if I wanted a job because the next best candidate was some crazy Prince fan who wants to rot the teeth of young kids. I'm not sure if I should take it though. What do you think?

No, I don't really celebrate it... although I do get caught up with how cute my nephews and now niece will look all dressed up and excited.

I STRONGLY advise against it!
