    I put the Beck CD on repeat for about 3 1/2 hours while playing Madden 2000 on the Playstation (yeah I know I need to get a PS2, but please refer to my sig). Talk about a great CD. I hated it at first and thought it was waaaaaaaay to mellow for Beck, but it really has been growing on me.

    So in conclusion, you should listen to a CD about 10 times before you decide that you hate it and put it up on Ebay.

    I know I know I know...... I faxed out 10 resumes yesterday, and decided to treat myself to a little Madden playoffs as the Broncos destroyed the Eagles in the super bowl 42-10.

    Hey do you guys have anything for PT Warehouse work? Thats something I wouldnt mind doing in the meantime......

    Aren't there some part-time agencies that handle that? I did that for a couple months right out of grad school.

    Have you tried a temp agency?

    It gives you part time work (sometimes full time), job experience, references, etc. A lot of companies use this as a recruiting tool as well -- if they like temps, they hire them. If not, they'll ask for another. You might even find a job in your field.

    Have you tried Enterprise Rent-A-Car? There are worse jobs than that.

    Drew, temp agancies work great to keep money coming in till you find something better...the 2 times I used em I got some warehouse work and the second time I got some temp wiring work(stringing network lines)..Doesnt pay real great, but anything is better than unemployment...good luck man..

    As Drew knows, I recruit for a temp agency here in Austin and I can tell you, work is scarce.

    Drew, I don't have any PT work, but I am working on a couple of orders:

    1. Windows 2000 Installer/Tech - reqs: knowledge of W2K installation process, registry editing, detecting errors in scripts and rewriting them. 10 week assignment, must be flexible to work any shift. good pay

    2. Outbound Lead Generation/Sales - various accounts some that require technical/networking exp, some just sales. these are hardcore sales positions. temp to hire with avg-decent pay.

    3. This one sounds like fun. A one day assignment on 10/26 where you get to dress up as a foot for a Dr. Scholls promo during the UT football game. I need someone that is at least 5'6". Hours from 2pm to 6-630pm. $10
