Census Jobs 2010

I worked for the Census in 2000 when I lived in Atlanta. It was a great job and paid well. I think I made about $17/hr to be a crew leader which involved managing enumerators (the people that go door to door collecting information from those who did not return their census).

A couple of weeks ago I was looking up some statistical data and ran across the Census page which says that they are now hiring for the 2010 Census. So if you are interested, go to their website and click on jobs to find work in your area. There is a practice test on there as well.

They offer positions that are very flexible and can be done with children. I took my kids with me yesterday when I went to take the test that qualifies you for all the jobs. I'm not even sure if I will take any jobs, but it's nice to get the test out of the way just in case. :)

It's A Dirty Job, But Someone Has To Do it

I bought some Vegan Cheese for my son after he begged for it. He's allergic to milk and even this "non-dairy" cheese has casein in it. I bought it any way, and now remember why I was initially hesitant. He woke up this morning very congested and this afternoon spent quite a bit of time in the bathroom, you know, bowing to the porcelain goddess.

Every time one of my kids is sick, I am reminded of when I was in college working for the State of Florida. I had a boss named Suzanne and one day she was cleaning gum off of the bottom of a desk with her bare hands. I said to her"Suzanne, that is just nasty". To which she responded, "Honey you ain't known nasty until you have children".

Suzanne, you were right!!

To all the Mothers out there. I know it's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it!!

Happy Veterans Day

I have several family members and friends who serve or have served this country at one time or another. To them and to the brave soldiers who risk their lives everyday that I may enjoy peace of mind, I say thank you!!
