Show us some love and leave us a review at iTunes

View Kris's resume or download it

You wanted more than Wheel of Fortune?
Now you got it
Sure you want it
How to tickle a nerd?
Let us see funny stuff in our stats
From Google searches
Yeah I look for the search term
You know that your IT people got their space
They all need a little space
Evidently we are more exciting than a blue haired lot lizard
Those I dig, they were funny
I'm glad you are getting tickled
Not those industries
If I could reach a lower point in my wife's eyes . . . don't know what it is
Things couldn't be going much worse for me
Instead of life preservers I'm getting styrofoam cups
I am smiling and laughing because I know you are on cusp of something terrrible
Monday was going to awesome
Back story
Interviewing and meeting with people
Turns out they didn't want me for the job that I had applied for
We really want you
What do you want to do?
What would you want me to do if I worked here?
What does my resume say to you?
In all honesty, I haven't read it
Nice
So they loved me
For the last two months we'll get back to you
We are figuring this out
We know how to make it happen
When job hunting you are in a hurry but no one else is
The key is to not come off desperate
I asked what the culture was like
Sure I ended up over dressed
I'm applying for every job that I can
Everything and anything
Manager at Caribou Coffee, you bet
Come Monday most likely we'll be selling the Maguar
We've learned a lot over the last two years
Kris explains how his job ended
Next time all the other cats get gone
We did the best thing we could do at the time
If I would have waited three weeks I might not have had a job
We thought being proactive would be better
Betsy is keeping us afloat in food and small bills with china sales
The eBay sales have been
Listen, it even gets worse
I am fucking everything up
It's me
I'm not doing it on purpose
But it is surely me
Betsy runs her business like a busy mommy
So she gets an all caps email
Directed at the software that she sold for me
It's not my fault he doesn't get it
Oh, my God I am going to kill Kris
For this software, you have to be a nerd!!!!
If you aren't you won't even know what this software is
Not just a nerd but an audio nerd to know what Yellow Tools is
Yeah, I went after him
Not my fault he typed in all caps
Reaching pretty low lows
Wasn't listening to the Wheel shows better?
Man, this is depressing
Got a line on a gig?

1	Kris, I bought this book for my husband for x-mas, "How Starbucks Saved my Life." Check it out at this URL. http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9781592402861&itm=7 Why dont you get a job at a community college? They pay pretty well and they sure need people to teach computers..

4	what is the best method of connecting you to my VP? i can't promise anything b/c i am a bit clueless on the business front, but i think we need YOU. of course, i don't know if they have already hired a person like you yet. just let me know how i can best direct someone to you. i hope i can pay you back for all the laughs this way.

5	As a seasoned job seeker, I know it sucks. Hang in there. I passed along your palegroove info to someone at my company who may be interested. Hope it works out. Also, don't dismiss the headhunter thing. There are plenty out there who are paid by companies to find suitable candidates like YOU. You pay no expenses, they get paid a finding fee by the company who hires you. I found that they like to find you jobs that require relocating, but it sounds like you're not completely opposed to that. So it might be worth a shot. Best of luck. Karen

6	@margot - community college! That's perfect! It would complete the circle - the show could begin and end with the Smiths broke and Kris working at a community college. Now, Kris - you just need to reverse that vasectomy and get Betsy pregnant again and there would be complete closure.
