A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Our Member's Interactions wheres Jiffymouse?

Any one know what happen to Jiffymouse the old moderator?
Last I heard she lost her beloved job at the college.
Said her an hubby would throw each other out if they were both off?

I see her every once in awhile on Facebook. But we have not spoken in years.

OK......was wondering if she got a new job?
What was the other girl Louise or something, Tall skinny red head who was afraid to leave her mother? Afraid to drive an afraid to leave without mom.

they are on face book regularly.. I don't interact with them.


Yea on facebook,, and ,,, me either,, I have no interest.

Barb you talking about Loz,( tall red head). She was sweet, Tough time back then.

I see Loz on XBox Live all the time, she plays a lot of Call of Duty... I was shocked lol... I don't really talk to her though.

That's her name Loz...........
What is call of duty on x box? She was never brave. Shopped for Christmas all year an bought like 100 gifts.

Only games I play on here is Spider Solitaire ON here. I love the challenge, an don't win oftern

Well, the XBox is a gaming console, and Call of Duty is a war game

HMMMMMMMMMMM

dodge, remember a few years back there was some type of argument on here and many people either left or got poofed. Jiffy and Loz were in that group. It's been at least 3 years I will say. Where in the world did you read she lost her job since you're not on Facebook. I do know that she just recently got a part time job at her local library. She was out of work for about a year. I think age discrimination is certainly alive and well. My friend worked for Atena insurance company for 27 years and when they downsized she was laid off. She went on so many interviews. She had a vast amount of insurance knowledge but no one would hire her. She finally asked a lady if it was her age and the lady said "I really can't say this but yes, it's age discrimination. If I take your application to our HR department they'll just laugh at me." Knowledge doesn't count for anything if you're over 35.

I come in and out but I do remember the big fight that was going on and I remember them talking about some people that got poofed...

I got scared an would get off for a while.

lol you never know here one day and *POOFED* the next

Here it can be much the opposite; they take full advantage of older workers since they get tax breaks galore...

I'm pretty lenient, I don't think anyone has to worry about that unless they go on a mass spam spree...

Same here,, My boss has hired many in there 50's this past 2 years Because we needed someone with experience, Hire them they sit down and get to work and do it well. Younger people now days don't have the same work ethic as 'seasoned' employees, take the cell phones away and maybe the young ones could get some work done, LOL

Hint Grem......

And now I know why I kept getting interviews galore, they tell me my resume is impressive, but yet & not once did I get hired---although someone did tell me if you apply they "have" to interview you.....

If you were here Carol I'd hire you in a second,, we need someone to answer the phone and transfer them to the right departments, and schedule custom shade patients,, they hired 3 young girls the last 6 months 2 quit, and 1 was let go ,, all three were always on their cell phones on FB or playing games, They are now seeking someone 40 to 65 years old to man the main phone line and schedule,, My boss is fed up with 18-30 yr olds like I said before NO work ethic, and not committed to work when they are there.

we even have retired gentlemen as our delivery drivers taking cases from the lab back to the dentist offices,,

In our area they tell those over 35 Over qualified..Meaning your too old

that's a good company you got there Dianne. You'd think more companies would figure this out.

It has been my experience that the younger less experienced workers a company has the less they have to pay them & sadly THAT is the bottom line a lot of the time.

& Diane: Thanks for the kind words--I appreciate it.
