Read the requirements for ID on the SS-5 online before heading out to get your daughter a social security replacement card so she can get her ID/learner's permit.
Does it really make sense that school transcripts qualify as ID but a birth certificate doesn't?

Never trust a coworker to tell the "Boss" the truth about any other coworker/manager. Everyone is out to cover their own ass - - no matter what goes down, be it illegal or otherwise.

"User attempted to skateboard down stairs on laptop," is not a valid cause of "accidental damage" when sending company laptops back to the manufacturer for repair. They do occasionally read them. |

When you feel overwhelmed by a task, don't put it off because you can't decide where to start. Pick a random place to start and the rest will eventually fall into place, showing you that it wasn't half as bad as you were making it out to be.

No matter how hard you try, you cannot run away from your past. As it is a part of you,
you must face it, and learn to live with it.

Don't try to climb a wall wearing a giant inflatable sumo suit and then expect it to stay in one peice.
Also, make sure its your own wall, and not the one at the back of the next door neighbours house. A service announcment provided by the alcohol for morons appeal.

If using "ready mixed" allways check it really is ready mixed.
I built part of the base for my shed last weekend, got all the bricks neatly laid and the joints dressed... and then discovered a little bag of cement in the bottom of the "ready mixed" mortar bag. Yup, I'd built the wall using just wet sand. |
