When I think of that moment, the torture, all the idiots soft in their beds while I suffered... You have to be willing to take a bullet for people. That is at the heart of it. It e... |

Its like I have to choose, and I don't want to do that either. Worst yet, I am a 6 foot tall female. Just ... |

| If they are under no obligation to provide work, then it is not a job. Its like occasional babysitting if you have time. Why not look for another job? When and if they call, tell them you have another job, and maybe you might be free some other time. Eventually you will slip off the page. |
