That seems so strange to me as I am the only person who has had my number. I guess it helped that Atlanta added about 3 new area codes in the last 15 years. I just get car warranty offers for my 1 year old car and zero intrest rate offers for credit cards I dont have. Booty calls seem so much more exciting.

The new thread title gets me in the mood to listen to Fiona Apple's song "Criminal". That's all I got.

You could have stopped them 10 years ago by replying with dick pics.

You could probably start a lucrative business selling old escort/hooker/sugar baby phone numbers to the fresh crop.

Too old to hook, sell me your number.

I may have mentioned it before, but for a while, I've been getting random text to my number that made it very apparently that whoever had my number 10 years ago (that's how long I've had it) was gay and into random hookups that he listed the number on some kinda shady websites.

Or on some kinda shady bathroom stall.

So sending these guys a dick pic would just encourage them.

How’s that Portland job search coming?

Drazzil · Post by **Drazzil** » Fri Oct 04, 2019 9:49 pm

Good. I have another interview on monday. The last place that I had an interview with was like "I'm not going to do what they want me to do and BS you, it's canvassing" and I said "Okay thanks but I came to Portland to get away from canvassing" I made an outdated joke about how it would feel too much like being a Jehovah's Witness again, we both had a laugh and I left.

Drazzil · Post by **Drazzil** » Mon Oct 07, 2019 7:06 pm

So heres my update. I have a job interview tomorrow; they were kind of nebulious on what they want me to do. Thinking it may be another "canvassing" or "sales" position. I also have a noon appt with a job agency that helps people who have disabilities find jobs. Not comitting to anything, but we'll see how legit it is.

That's been my experience. I take whatever I can get to stay on my feet and keep looking while I'm there making a paycheck. I find that having a shit job is a great motivator to find another, better job.

Bingo! Of course living off hand outs has it's appeal as well I guess, just not for me.

Did you not read the job description when applying for the job? How do you not know what you are interviewing for?

There are tons of entry-level office jobs on Indeed.com for Portland - data entry, office assistants, warehouse clerks, receptionists - both temp and permanent. Any one of those positions would allow you potentially to put your foot in the door, reacquaint yourself with the job market, or at least put something marginally useful on your resume. And yet you manage to avoid anything with even a hint of respectability.

I'm trying to figure out what you mean by saying you are a Kiva project?

If I'm not mistaken, he seems hell-bent on Sales jobs. Not just "any" job.

I'm completely paid for by the taxes of others. It struck me as I was reading the kiva thread.

If you read the thread you should know how Kiva works.

Kiva is for people trying to make something of themselves who need a small loan to get a business or idea off the ground. Are you alleging that's what you are doing?

If so, why not apply to Kiva?

Drazzil · Post by **Drazzil** » Tue Oct 08, 2019 7:06 pm

No business idea, but I am trying to get my life off the ground... And I could definitely do better then the rates kiva offers. I made the comparison to kiva because basically, a lot of the people on this board are "contributing" directly to my "project" of unfucking my life.

Zarathud · Post by **Zarathud** » Tue Oct 08, 2019 7:12 pm

Not an investment I’m making. The business case is seeming more like a pipe dream.

You need to be doing more. You can do more. Get out and do more. The world isn’t going to give you a job. Go get one.

Do or do not. There is no try.

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Thu Oct 24, 2019 1:31 pm

They are definitely similar. But it's really hard to tell. The key markings that would really help aren't displayed since the angles are different. Do you have any other angles of your cat? Right now I'm leaning towards no.

Me too.

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Thu Oct 24, 2019 1:34 pm

If it helps, I was looking that the markings right above the eyes/middle of the forehead, and the bars on the right leg.

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Thu Oct 24, 2019 1:35 pm

Also, for some reason the cat in the top picture seems younger to me. Though I have no idea if that is true.

Not sure about the leg markings. The angle is really tough.

However, looking at the white markings around the right eye, your cat looks like it had a larger light area on the lower right side of the eye.
