Of course, she could stand by him, rustle up some political clout, and eventually run for the presidential nomination!

I googled "Unions in XXX (the nearest big city)" and I got all the listings for the credit unions...no trade unions. I have tried it with all the cities around us and even did it for our county...hmm...



Girl, you need to move out of the boonies! Did you try some specific trades? Like carpenter's union? That's usually a big one. Or IBEW?



fi real,

ask a trade person where they went to school

A always talked about getting into a trade. He is working in manufacturing making doors presently. How can someone get into a trade? Do you have to go to trade school or can you apprentice your way in?



U can apprentice...or join the union and anyone can join...and they will get u an apprenticeship....It is good to get a trade because wherever you go...you can get a job because u have a transferable skill...my dad went to school in england and come over here and got a job with a shipyard...and before he died he got a job in st. croix...

I get u Lita..and I agree.."when am i going to watch the next man wash the floors" laughing.gif



Exactly, I get that everyone has to start somewhere, but knowing myself and the things I want to do in life...that have nothing to do with a career....I need someone who has the same goals otherwise we as a couple will be so out of balance and will probably never get there. I believe in being compatilbe on many levels....religion, ambitions, dreams, this compatiblity will help us grow together, and not grow apart.


But what if your man is content and happy "washing the floors" or any other "menial" type job? What if that is his passion in life and he doesn't see it as a starting point but somewhere that he is happy and comfortable with as his job in life? Would you be ok with that?


ok like i stated before santation workers in nyc make $70K a year. i'd be happy with that. now if he is in a low paying job and he's happy with dat..then he wouldn't be my man for long....


What exactly does "happy with that" mean?

If you are struggling and he's itching to get a job. He's finally able and he calls, e-mails, applies, interviews, and interviews some more. He finally gets a job. Not the one either of you really envisioned; but it's a job.....a paycheck.....money coming in. He gets his own insurance. It's a HUGE deal. He's happy. Your happy. You ask him to stay for at least a year to make the resume reflect some quality US experience. He starts to progress in the company. It's a slow process and he hangs around to get every little bit of training and experience out of this job he can.

I don't know what the criteria is or the length of time is that anyone is thinking. But to me, a JOB, any job is a plus. If he moves up or moves on to bigger and better things, that's even better. Any way you look at it, I'm happy with it.


read what i was responding too....and what makes u happy...may not be what makes me happy.



What does your husband do, Jengles?



What does that have to do with anything??

Anyone in the MD/DC/VA going to Crossroads this weekend? I think I'm going on Friday or Saturday because I need to get out...


Sunny, we need to hook up and do this one weekend, but I have a lot of family here from Jamaica that will stay with me for the next 5 weeks (LORD HELP ME)...girl pray that I don't kill one of them. My grandaunt got up 4 o'clock this morning making fritters and cooked my LUNCH. (I appreciate it), but....she wakes me at 4:30 asking me where is the clothes I'm wearing to work. So, I showed a blue pantsuit, she says, oh, no my baby-- u can't wear pants to work, what will they think. I said auntie it's 2008, I love, go back in the kitchen and finish cooking. She's 86 and I love her so much. Now, I have to find her some fish net sockings. She going to a function at Martin's Crosswind on Saturday. I haven't been able to find any. Any suggestions?



Is Auntie big or small?

You can get fishnets at Lane Bryant... or Kohl's I think.
Try Macy's or JC Penney... any big dept store should have the nice ones.


Try Wal-mart. They have lots of stocking selections.


Hey girl, how MD treating you? Suppose to be almost 70 degrees tomorrow and I can't wait. I'd love to hang out a CC, I just have a crazy scheduled right now and family in town. I just told my mom to try walmart. My grandaunt called my dad and ask him to start up the grill. Now, she's outside frying fish. I'm going to gain so much weight crying.gif


Nothing much going over here...just working my @ss off. I'll probably go for a long walk after work tomorrow. I wanna start jogging but I haven't ran in years blush.gif

1luv...This is real life..no poking fun here

Ur hubby knows that reading and writing is something he wants to achieve so he is doing what is necessary. I forget who said but some men DO NOT care to ever learn and they are ok with that. Is it that they "think" learning to read and write will get them no further than where they r right now ?


i agree with that....and i think there is more too it as well...i know for mike he was ashamed that he could not read or write that well....and there for did NOT want to get help because he felt like he was the only person in the US with this issue....i explained time and time again he is so not the only person with this issue....still he didn't want to believe me and got a ok job...stocking shelves which is fine...happy for him to have that job....BUT he doesn't want to look for a better job or a second job because that would mean more paperwork....


This is where it gets to be a problem for me. He's holding himself back cause his mind is not free....not because someone tells him he can't do it.

and it is aproblem for me as well....i want to drill a hole into his thick head and put some sense into him....it really bothers me....

Nans, this is a very tricky situation. You have to thread gently. Do not push too hard or else you will never get him to try. Just talk about it and not get upset when you do. I know it is fraustrating but you can't give up.

My ex (the barber) was very smart (street) could read and write but could not hold a conversation in public. You know how it is in a Jaamican barber shop. That is all the conversation he wanted to have. When he moved to NC with me, he claimed he could not get a job but I think he was afraid to actually go on an interview for fear ne would not be able to handle it. I was patient with him but he decided to go back to NYC back to his old barber shop where he was comfortable hanging out with the guys. mad.gif mad.gif


girl u almost had me, because my son's father is a baber and this sounds like him too a t. the sad thing is he went to school to become a teller and was number one in his class...but he couldn't talk and it didn't help that he would go on interfviews in his dancehall clothes...

OK JG ..dats it mi come off di soap box b4 mi slip laughing.gif



I value different things in a man...like can u fix my plumbing...no not lay the pipe...fix stuff....now it doesn't mean that if I met a professional down to earth man, I wouldn't date him...and plus a plumber makes more than some of these professional types...so it sometimes doesn't pay to generalize.

Lawny,

I ain't even finish reading your post yet,...get an order of proctection that says she can't come within ex-number of feet within your house. i'm sure she threanted you...and even if she didn't call her and leave some bad wud pon her phone and when she call u back don't pick up, let it go into voicemail and take it down to the police station....and i don't even think u need a voicemail....while he may have the right to be there...she doesn't...Go to the police station...there has to be some sort of trespassing law for her....she's in your house...and you never invite her...he is part owner but he doesn't live there, I really can't believe he has free access to the whole house...now let me see what else u had to say...


He owns half the house...we live in MD, so law says, I can't put him out or lock him out (unless he HURTS me). Girl, this is just FRIGGIN fustrating. I told that gyal no come back a mi yard. I told her to get the hell out and when she refused, I took her purse and threw it outside. She start cussing, neighbors were outside working in their yards and I was so embrassed. I told her I'm calling the police, so they left.


Yuh see wah mi seh... Mi haffi shawt shawt tempa, wen she refused mi wodda had deh green light and license to WOOP HER A$$!! Mi nuh wan fe mek yuh no more upset but dis ere really mek mi angry. Ah who she tink she is??

Bwoy mi tell yuh mi haffi calm dung nuh mad.gif



I feel the same way...go the police station and file a police report...i'm sure somewhere in the cussing yesterday there was a threat, if not make one up...think about it this way...say Marcel does get his NOA2 in weeks and is able to come up here before the 4 months...what would happen when your ex come in the house like he live there...Marcel would kick his ###..then he would have a police record and no AOS...U NUH WANT THAT...so you have to start setting up shop the right way from now and secure you and your man's future...


Shyne/Jengs,

Trust mi...I've thought about doing all sorts of stuff. I went to the police 6 months ago and was told there's really nothing that can be done in obtaining an order of protection, since he hasn't done anything. Then they told me about the law and locking him out or changing the locks. If I change the locks, all he has to do is call and locksmith and have them open the door. Marcel and I won't be living at that house. I hope (and ladies, please pray for me) that I'll close on this house April 30th. Everything is in place so far; and Jengs, Marcel will kick him down.

Hear the gyal...she ago call police cause mi destroy her property (cause mi fling her purse outside)...mi stand up a mi front step and fling it into the street. I didn't care. I told her to get out and she was refusing to leave. What hurts me the most, is that my son was there and the BURNED me. You have no idea. I'm telling you right now, if she's there today. Ya'll will not see me on line for a while. I hate to say that, but that's how I'm feeling now.

Just got of the phone with local police and was told I can get a no-treprass order against her since she's harrasing me. So, back to the Courts tomorrow. That I will not be able to get for 6-8 weeks. Now, if mi BAX her down...they'll lock me up right away. I just don't get it.

Morning.
Ditto....ambition, better yet goals setting ability. 'Where do you see us in five, ten, 15 years?....that's my kind of man!


Agreed good.gif


as long as we are also working towards those goals then i'm cool, setting goals and actually working towards them are 2 different things.

We were married for 13 years and had two children with him. Then he punched in in the face and I left him. He is a CPA with a good job with the NYC hospitals system and very intelligent. He is so into politics and he ran for NYC councilman last year but lost. He thinks he is all that. LOL While we were married, I used to work as the assistant to the president of a woman's org. I always wanted to be a nurse so I went to nursing school and worked part-time. We had previous discussion about me not working , because I was required to be in school fultime to complete my clinicals. He was not as supportive as he promised to be. I kinda figured him out and that's why I decided to struggle and have a job while going to nursing school fulltime. I was very successful in completing school and getting my nursing license. I started as a psychiatric nurse and whenever I wanted to work overtime to make some extra money, it became an issue of my acting like I was a single woman and a lot of other complaints. The marriage deteriorated from there.

When I left him, he vowed to destroy me saying "I made you and I will break you." We had a terrible divorce which I sheltered my kids from. I got full exclusive custody of my children and signed over our house to him (that's what he wanted). After that I was able to buy my first home and had a very successsful job. My relationships with men have not been the same, couldn't trust them. I found that I always levitated to non-professional men. The last relationship I was in was with a barber. He tole me one day, I heard you are seeing a barber. Why don't you find a man who is a professional like you and meets up to your standards?" My reply was "He is a professional barber and what does his career have to do with our relationship? As long as he treats me with respect and love me the way I deserve to be loved, Why does it matter what he does for a living? The convo ended right there.

Last week he called me again, not to talk about my kids but to inquire about my personal life. I used to always shut him down, but decided to go along with the conversation. I told him that I was not in a relationship at the moment and he went ahead to say why can't I find a professional partner who meets my standards? You are a smart intelligent and beautiful woman and you should not settle for less.

Saying all that to get to my question. I hope you all are not saying "get to the question already"

How do you all feel about that statement? Do you guys think that you should try to get with a man that meets you on that professional or educational level? Or is it more important to be with a man who loves you and treats you with respect? My thoughts on this are that as long as you are both compatable and you both love and respect each other, what he does for a living should not matter. Love has no boundaries. If you go out there looking for only that "professional" are you sure he will treat you the way you deserve to be treated. I feel that some of these professoinals are so into themselves and their profession that they might not give you what you deserve.

Opinions?

I refuse to settle.
Why should I be forced to choose between someone who is equal on both a professional AND who loves me and treats me as he should?

Been there, done that and worn the hat.....been with men I was embarrassed at the thought of taking to my office party, who I didn't want to tell my friends about because I knew they'd say he wasn't good enough. Decided I was going to list everything that I would like my partner to be and REFUSED to compromise along the way.....almost gave in right before I met my husband, but luckily didn't.....
My partner is the man I am going to spend the rest of my life with, why should I accept anyone who loves me BUT, or who is smart BUT, or is a lovely person BUT.....

If you DON'T care whether a man is a professional, then fine...But if you would PREFER, why compromise?
I believe Mr Right is out there for EVERY last one of us, however MANY of us married Mr Almost Right, or Mr Could Be Right Just Not For Me.....
This was my personal epiphany, and it took long enough coming!


Agreed! For me the most deciding factor in a man is ambition...and not just the kind you talk about but the ones who are are doing something. Talked to a lot of guys who wanted to do this or do that..but never did anything..

I ain't even finish reading your post yet,...get an order of proctection that says she can't come within ex-number of feet within your house. i'm sure she threanted you...and even if she didn't call her and leave some bad wud pon her phone and when she call u back don't pick up, let it go into voicemail and take it down to the police station....and i don't even think u need a voicemail....while he may have the right to be there...she doesn't...Go to the police station...there has to be some sort of trespassing law for her....she's in your house...and you never invite her...he is part owner but he doesn't live there, I really can't believe he has free access to the whole house...now let me see what else u had to say...


He owns half the house...we live in MD, so law says, I can't put him out or lock him out (unless he HURTS me). Girl, this is just FRIGGIN fustrating. I told that gyal no come back a mi yard. I told her to get the hell out and when she refused, I took her purse and threw it outside. She start cussing, neighbors were outside working in their yards and I was so embrassed. I told her I'm calling the police, so they left.


Yuh see wah mi seh... Mi haffi shawt shawt tempa, wen she refused mi wodda had deh green light and license to WOOP HER A$$!! Mi nuh wan fe mek yuh no more upset but dis ere really mek mi angry. Ah who she tink she is??

Bwoy mi tell yuh mi haffi calm dung nuh mad.gif



I feel the same way...go the police station and file a police report...i'm sure somewhere in the cussing yesterday there was a threat, if not make one up...think about it this way...say Marcel does get his NOA2 in weeks and is able to come up here before the 4 months...what would happen when your ex come in the house like he live there...Marcel would kick his ###..then he would have a police record and no AOS...U NUH WANT THAT...so you have to start setting up shop the right way from now and secure you and your man's future...

Good Morning. I can't believe we are back to another Monday dry.gif

Congrats and Happy Birthday to Shauna!!! What a wonderful weekend for you kicking.gif

Well my weekend didn't go as planned. My mom was out of town and she is my grandmother's primary advocate while she is in an assisted living home. Anyways my grandma was having a lot of trouble so then I got to step in and play my mothers role alongside my aunt. Trust me it is disgusting the way the elderly are treated ranting33va.gif I just can't believe it. My grandma gained 10 pounds in 4 days and not one of the nurses noticed. Her belly was all extended and her ankles were the size of her thighs. This happened on Wed. so my mom threw a fit and got my gma on some new meds and the docs told the assisted living people that my gma was to be weighed every single day to make sure her lungs weren't filling up with fluid. Anyways I get a call on Friday night that my gma gained 4 pounds in ONE day and she was already on a double dose of the meds. Ugh it made me so mad. The nurses then tried to convince my gma that it was her fault because she wasn't going to the bathroom enough. She called my crying on Saturday telling me about how they keep telling her to go to the bathroom but she doesn't need to go. She was having all this trouble breathing and was turning blue - while on full oxygen. She asked if she should go to the hospital but the damn nurse told her there was nothing the hospital could do that they couldn't and she just needed to go to the bathroom and she would feel better. My gma was so distraught she called me and told me she was going to drown. I was furious. I channeled my inner Gill and went and had quite the talk with those nurses mad.gif How dare they make my gma feel bad for something she can't control. I can't believe the treatment she is getting and my family is paying so much for her to be in this place. Can you believe it is one of the top facilities in our county?!? Imagine the care she would be getting elsewhere...unbelievable. So if you could all keep her in your prayers that they can find a way to stop this fluid from collecting in her lungs that would be great. I know she probably doesn't have a lot of time left on this earth but I at least want her to go out comfortable and well taken care of. Thanks rose.gif

So anyways that is how I spent my weekend. Not what I expected but glad I could be there for my gma. Hope you all had a good weekend.

Hey Yardie, sorry to hear about your grandma. crying.gif How could these professionals be so cold and uncouth? Why are you in the healthcare business if you do not have compassion for older, sickly people. That is what is wrong with our society today--no respect for our elders. It is all about making the money without fullfilling their obligation to their clients. mad.gif mad.gif

Telling her to go to the bathroon if she can't? Bwoy I tell you. Some people wacko.gif wacko.gif

Yardie, not to scare or frighten you. If she has congestive heart failure, maybe it is at it's endstage. You say her ejection fraction (the pumping ability of the heart) is low. Even if they triple her diuretics (water pills), it might not make a difference, because your heart has to be able to pull that fluid out of your vascular sytem and pump it to your kidneys and then the kidneys filter out the watse and it comes out as urine. Is she being evaluated by a doctor? Whenever people are on diuretics, they are supposed to get daily weights. How could she have gained 10 lbs in four days without them knowing? ohmy.gif ohmy.gif What kinda of system do they have set up to moinitor fluid intake and loss? I am so mad mad.gif mad.gif right now, I might not be too sensitive right now. Not directed at you though, just the system. More and more of these facilities are being exposed for the slackness that happens there. They treat these people like trash. Can you imagine what happens to those people who have no family?

I know this situation suck really bad, but you guys have to keep closer monitoring on her. Light fire under their asses and let them give you what you are paying for. I do not know what you guys schedule ia like, but you all should take turn and pop in and see what else they are neglecting. I am so pissed right now, me head hurts.
Sorry for the rant, but I hope she feels better soon as this fluid issue gets resolved. good.gif

Much Love
Claire


I could tell...U started to get technical on us...I thought i was going to have start googling stuff...so I could keep up...no matter still...rant..maybe Yardie or someone else can make use of what u wrote...

I cannot go to Isreal and tell them to keep stores open on saturdays so why should they be allowed to say American cannot have school prayer...and it wasn't just them..don't want to seem like i'm picking on a particular group...everyone gets all caught up in the whole seperation of church and state thing..when this country was supposedly founded by a regligous group or colonized I should ...talking about the Puritians...who established schools with prayer in them...I'm not even saying everyone needs to pray to god "let everyone pray to their god" and the atheitists can stand and think about nothing as they belive in no hell or no heaven.

Ok I am headed off to lunch but had a topic I wanted to throw out there...

Would you still file AOS or removing conditions for your spouse if things in the marriage didn't work out between the two of you? Take out all the factors of them just coming for a green card and all that. It was a genuine bona fide marriage but it just didn't work between the two of you. Would you file to let them stay here?

What factors would or wouldn't cause you to file for them?

(Please don't read more into this than there is in regard to my personal situation...I am genuinely just curious and wonder what others would do in the situation.)



Well, considering AOS should really be filed before the I-94 expires and he is out of status, I would say Hell no. If my marriage can't last 90 days, it couldn't have been very bonafide in the first place. And, honestly, I would not accept any reasoning whatsoever at this point.

Now, if you are talking about Lifting of Conditions......2 years later, that would be a different story for me. I'd still say NO; but at least he could file a waiver and file for himself. I would not oppose his petition.


Yep that is basically my standpoint as well. I wouldn't oppose it but I am not going to be held responsible for the next 10 years of my life for someone who doesn't want to be married.



but what if it is the american citizen who wants to end the marriage?

Ok I am headed off to lunch but had a topic I wanted to throw out there...

Would you still file AOS or removing conditions for your spouse if things in the marriage didn't work out between the two of you? Take out all the factors of them just coming for a green card and all that. It was a genuine bona fide marriage but it just didn't work between the two of you. Would you file to let them stay here?

What factors would or wouldn't cause you to file for them?

(Please don't read more into this than there is in regard to my personal situation...I am genuinely just curious and wonder what others would do in the situation.)



yes because I would want the child support whistling.gif whistling.gif

GOOD MORNING my BEAUTIFUL SISTAHS!

Order our steps dear God this week.

Heavenly Father, another week is upon us. I ask that you order steps this week dear God. So much is going on in our lives that we sometimes don't take the time to thank you for what we have and to cherish and appreciate everything that you have blessed upon us. But, today, I/we lift up our hands and voices in prayer dear God and ask that you watch over my sisters here and elsewhere in the world. I ask that you hold on to us as we go through trails in our life dear God. I ask that you protect my sisters on VJ that are pregnant and watch over their precious gift that you have blessed them dear God. (Especially, Kimmy - I pray she gain at least 25lbs). I ask that you heal those that are in pain and those that are recovering from illness, so that may remain healthy. I ask that you keep all of us near and dear to you, as we go through the immigration process. Shower us with your strength and wisdom dear God.

And Lord, GILL, GILL, GILL, tommorow, Tuesday, March 11, 2008 is her interview day. Lord I ask that you stand over the Embassy in Jamaica and you stand beside her as she waits in line with Ken and as she goes through the interview process. Lord, please deliver her safely to the embassy, please protect her and wrap your arms around her and Ken. Lord we know that without you, we are nothing and with your we are everything.

All of these I/we pray and ask of you, dear God, in your heavenly name. Amen.
