Temp to perm position ..education challenges

OP, please say something like: A) "How could I have ever mentioned photoshopping a degree? What was I thinking? I'm sorry..." B) "I was just kidding about photo-shopping a degree. Did y'all really think I was serious??". C) Some other explanation. Then we can move on. Until then, some people will ...

2016 Audi Q5 or 2017 Bmw X3

I vote for the Audi. BMWs have been slipping of late and Audis getting better.

Audi interiors are tasteful. BMWs not as nice.

Dynamics of both are excellent.

Then, consider image. BMW drivers are jerks. Audi drivers enlightened :)

Temp to perm position ..education challenges

I have to admit I was shocked by the reference to photoshopping a degree. It wasn't made in jest. Remarks like that have a way of coming back to bite you.

However, now that I've growed up, I realize that in fact, the opposite would have been better. Put your children in school as [I]late[/I] as possible ...
