I have a stack of old gospel records I don't know what to do with. I don't want them. Nobody I know even has a turntable. I can't dump them on the local thrift store, they'd never be able to sell them.

What do you do with old records?

Uh.... my hubby collects them... :rolleyes:

He has a stereo that actually looks like an old fashioned turntable... :D

Hmm... seems firefox for android is not as stable as firefox for a real computer. I switched to android's default browser and everything works.

LittleBit, think he would want them?

They may have just one or two representatives. OR, the same team of representatives may be working for other firms as well?

How am I so sure? Look at my nationality. :p

What do you do with old records?
some might be collector stuff...got any Jim Reeves? if I were you I would try to convert them to HD by getting one of those modern record players that convert the sound to HD and then use my computer to encode it as mp3....at least thats what I did with some old tapes I had.....don't break them is my suggestion, try also advertising them on ebay? you never know who may want them....

On Tuesday, there was a girl at the smallgroup I attended that said she was looking for a job, probably an administration type job. The company I work at said they were going to hire an office admin when they moved to a new office, which will be happening in the near future. I suggested that possibility, and she seemed interesting, so I said I'd get more information from work.

I got the job description and looked it over. They have "Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university" listed as a requirement. What about office administration requires a Bachelor's degree?
Some back story..

When I got hired, they didn't have an office admin, and they still don't. As such, the responsibilities fell onto my team(not quite sure how that worked), and since I was the new guy, it landed on me. This continued until earlier this year, when I got a new boss and he declared it sill for a Computer Scientist to be doing office tasks.

My point of telling that is to say, I know what is required of an office admin, and I can assure you that a bachelor's degree is not needed. Is it just me, or does that seem a bit extreme to have that as a requirement? There are plenty of really intelligent, hard working people who don't hold degrees, and they shouldn't need to.
