Just finished my 90 day probation at Black and Decker.

They have hired my permanent, said I was a hard worker and dedicated.

Thoughts?

Congratulations, Lynch... sounds like your hard work paid off.

Los Broncos · 06-12-2008, 08:23 PM

Yes it did, one minute I had the unemployment blues, then the next I get hired by a large company.

All the "info" is giving me a headache...not sure how much laptop I really need...still confused...the guy at the store told me if it has built in wireless it can pickup anywhere...

...what's an aircard for

What's all the service options that are there...like deals with Verizon and such? I'm confused.

An air card will give you instant access to the net anywhere, anytime.

Los Broncos · 06-12-2008, 09:07 PM

I think there is a monthly fee.

Worth it if you really want it, I guess.

I don't need it because I don't have a lap top.

Jana® · 06-12-2008, 09:43 PM

congratulations, Lynch! That's wonderful news!

There is a monthly fee for an aircard and it isn't worth it if you have internet at home, trust me. I have Sprint for my cell phone and I could of gotten a Sprint Aircard for my laptop, but would of paid an additional 60 bucks a month for internet. SO not worth it when I can just use my wireless internet at home. When I go on vacation, my friend has internet. Or stay in a hotel with free wifi.

Sassy · 06-12-2008, 10:40 PM

So with all the coffee spots, hotels, airports...yeah, I don't think it's worth it.

They should have waited 100 days. You were holding your breath on those 90 days! Be on your good behavior still as this might keep your ass in OC. Congrats Adam.

Thoughts? The bosses at Black and Decker are obviously misguided.

Congrats on pulling off the deception.

theAPAOps5 · 06-24-2008, 08:33 AM

Thoughts?

You have ass kissing down pat!

Just kidding, conrgats. Now set another goal for yourself. You wanted to make it past 90 days probation and did. What do you want next? Aim for something attainable like a raise. Then strive for the next step, like supervisor, then onward and upward.

Good advice, I need to keep it up.

Los Broncos · 06-24-2008, 06:50 PM

They gave me a raise already, just have to work towards the next step.

theAPAOps5 · 06-24-2008, 08:24 PM

So whats the next step? Do they have bonuses?
