| | Posted: | | | | I need advice.
Yesterday, after three phone calls lasting maybe a total of 15minuts and without an interview, I got offered a job working at Ft Lewis (local Army base) doing server admin work for a couple grand more a year.
First thing today I found a four leaf clover in my garden. Then I got an official job offer.
So, with this strange luck, should I go out and buy a lotto ticket or wait to be struck by lightning?
EDIT: I also won an eBay auction that I was convinced I wouldn't win. | | | Schultzy - http://www.michaelschultz.net

| | Posted: | | | | Back when the California lottery first started, the odds of winning were something like 15 million to one. Which is a little worse than your odds of being struck by lightning twice in your lifetime. Now the odds are about three times worse.
So, yeah, buy a lottery ticket.
But expect that you will be stuck by lightning twice before you win. | | | If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.

| | Posted: | | | | I did take the job and I am giving my notice to my current employer tomorrow. Unfortunately, it is not a GS job  I am working for a contractor (NCI). I did buy lotto tickets and I have wait for the mega million, but on two $5 scratch cards I did win $25. | | | Schultzy - http://www.michaelschultz.net

| | Posted: | | | | Congrats on the job They do say all things happen in threes... 1. Job Offer 2. Four leave clover 3. eBay winning ... I still voted on the lotto ticket, cos tha way I look at this, the clover should give you an additional goodspell of three Do we receive a DVD when you win like over 500,000,000.00 US$ Anyways good luck !!! | | | | Jean-Paul |
