How funny I was looking at this Ca. thread and over a year ago my wife was interviewing for State jobs in Sacramento! Yesterday (Monday) she interviewed for the same job she did last year for Cal-Fire. Last time she was considered and the State pulled the position. Then today she found out Cal-Fire is calling her references and this time they are not wasting time getting the job filled! They told her they wanted to fill the position ASAP and she told them she is available whenever they need her!
We were running late yesterday and I was going to get her just about on time for her interview. She likes to be 15 minutes early, but as we entered down town Sacramento the streets we need to travel were blocked off due to " Occupy Wall Street protestors along with another group of college students protesting the high cost of Ca. college fees. In Sacramento every street is one way and we ended up being 5 minutes or so late. I dropped off my wife and I had to circle the block until I found a parking space. Lol of course the protest was so long it I ended in front of the Capital where the protest was being held.
Then I found a space back at Cal-Fire and needed to buy a parking pass because I didn't have change for the meter. I found a parking pass machine that used my ATM and after finally figuring it out bought the pass. I hurried back to the car to find my wife sitting in the car wondering where I was!
So again this year we hope to be living in Folsom, Cameron Park, Eldorado Hills, Sacramento area! Boy I pray I not to hope for this next year!
