Nothing is certain but death and…

Work and school
If you’ve been following for the last few weeks, you know that I’ve been trying to get hired as a receptionist (or client services professional) at H&R Block for several weeks now. I had the paperwork finished, but because the district manager died last month of a heart attack, my paperwork ended up getting booted out of the system.

How many organizations that aren’t specifically church related actually include God in the course of their business meetings? I admire them for doing this. Continue reading
