Carolina Hurricanes!!! June 14, 2006

Posted by Administrator in : Sports , add a comment

Carolina Hurricanes

I know this post is not about finance! But I live in Raleigh, North Carolina and of course Raleigh is home to the Carolina Hurricanes of the National Hockey League. Around Raleigh it is hockey mania. It seems as if every vehicle driving down Interstate 40 or anywhere for that matter has a hurricane flag on it with a hurricane bumper sticker. I guess this post is a shout out for the CANES to whip some Edmonton Ass tommorow night at the RBC Center.

To find out more about the Hurricanes and the city of Raleigh itself I provided some links below.

I recently started an online savings account with EmigrantDirect.com and find it very easy to use and agree with this small business owner in this video clip.  It is really a no brainer

See for yourself!

Finally the long wait has arrived! I finished my training 2 weeks ago and still have not heard anything for when I will be starting. So after many phone calls to the hiring company finally Dell got in touch with me today. The message was…

Dell Direct Store Kiosk

Come into work right after I get off of work at my full time job. My full time job I work an early 5:30 am - 2:00 pm shift. I will head on over to the mall to work till 5 pm. There I will just be shadowing someone to learn the selling skills I will need. Finally though I am starting. This will be the first time in my life where I will work 2 jobs. But I think I will be ok. I used to be a Store Manager working probably more hours than these two jobs combined.
