OH NO!!!  YOU DON'T MEAN THIS ISN'T A REAL JOB???

Now my Monday is ruined!  I spent all morning over in receiving testing 400
"things".  I had to stick one end of this thing in a little slide on a tester, slide it
across and make sure the little light went from red to green.  Then I had to take
the bare wire on the other end and put one of the coated wires on one screw
terminal and the other coated wire on the other screw terminal and make sure
another light turned green.  All morning I kept thinking - THIS IS
SOOOOOOOOO BORING!!!  I wanted to get back to *my* chair, in *my* dark
cubbyhole and work on *real* work.  Now I learn it's not a real job.

I wonder if my parents would mind supporting me again..........  Mommy?

Have a delightful Monday all  :-)
