to look up for you.

I'm baaaacck! The test was as boring as I thought it would be. Then they threw me a curve by having SAT type analogy questions I HATE those things, and get them wrong 9 times out of 10.

Anyone know this answer?
Horse is to mule as obedient is to ____
A) dog
B) whip
C) bad
All I know is that mules are hybrids of horses and donkeys. So what in thse choices makes for hybrid of obedient???

I have to go back yet again to take the computer test. The guy forgot I was coming and had a very important meeting to attend. Thats ok, that gives me a few days to try and figure out how to do the AutoCAD function expects me to know!

[Edwina's Secretary]

I would go with "bad."

AutoCAD function is pretty easy to pick up A lot of city colleges teach
adult classes in it.

I usually love questions like that, what this one is wierd. Bad would be the
only choice available.

Well, I finally got a good night's sleep and was able to play on the computer for a bit this morning figuring out the finctions they want me to know. Still have NO idea what it does or why its important, but I have figured out how to USE it! LOL

I also downloaded a 30 day trial version of AutoCAD 2006 because the interview I have this morning expects me to have experience on that version. I have been sitting here with my jaw in my lap with how cool some of the new things are. A lot of it is stuff I have said "I wish it could do this" and now it does! So now if they plop me in front of a computer and ask me to draw for them, I won't be saying "wow!" and "how cool!" I can act like I know what I'm doing, especially since I told them I have experience on 2006... now I technically do Also, its pretty much exactly like I'm used to with AutoCAD 2004, only a little bit more powerful with cool new functions. And probably 90% of the new functions will never relate to me and what I do so I'm not going to worry about them.

Wish me luck again! I also feel good about this job, though not as positive about it as the one I went for on Wednesday.

My husband uses AutoCad all the time in his job as a engineer. If you need help with the program I am sure he would be happy to help you..

[Edwina's Secretary]

Got you question done? Good....gert those business cards too!

By the way...my reasoning on the question....horse and mule are both animals....obedient and bad are both behaviors.....

Oh very good!! lol..

[Randi]

I missed this the first time around. Two job interviews! Great! Hope you get the one you like best!

If you've used AutoCad before you should be able to pick up the new version pretty soon.

Good luck!!

Oh my goodness! I just got back from this second company and REALLY hope I get this job. It was such a cool place and the people seem great.

Its completely different than anything I've ever done. Its all custom designed wood or metal walls and ceilings like you'd see in airports, colleges, business, etc. The guy said that most people take 2 or 3 years to learn and feel comfortable with everything. It seems more like engineering than design and thats exciting to me.

There's going to be a lot of overtime and they pay for overtime, so the base salary looks smaller than what I'd expect a job of this nature to have, but with overtime the paychecks should look and feel pretty darn nice!

They described as high stress with tight deadlines. Yet, I want that job!!!

Two interviews in one week: one that I really feel I have the job, the other is 50/50 - they told me its between me and one other person. It looks like Santa is bringing me a job, I just have to wait til after the 25th to get it!
