    So I got this new job showing Cutco. I get paid 15 bucks for every demo I Set up and commission If I sell something. I want to quit even though I just got it. Any of y'all need any Kitchen knives that are freaking amazing, I'll get ya a nice deal.
    Any of y'all heard of Cutco knives?

    LOL I don't want to say that's the worst job in the world, but when I was in college I knew of tons of people who signed up for that shit and never sold shit. If a paid job could ever be called a scam, it's selling Cutco knives lol. Don't get me wrong, they're great knives, but the system sucks.

    The pay is a amazing. Its not the best job but isn't a scam. The products work, we have had them for 8 years. I don't know if things changed but all I gotta do is read a manual word for word at a scheduled appointment, I guess it works for some but I was just seeing If anyone would want to buy or just listen to my presentation

    As badly as I would like to, I'd feel bad to leave him without a project that's worth 20% of the final grade..

    Fuck him - he bailed on you and let you do the work. If the teacher is worth a shit they will knock his grade at least.

    I'm going to tell the professor that I did 100% of the work, and let him make the decision whether to knock off his grade. Only so he won't go after me for his own problem..

    ah, hey I almost got a job with them, went to the first training day and didn't like the fact that you have to drive around in your own vehicle. I went in the 2nd day and just told the main guy "I don't want to do this!" haha, man I threw that guy a curve ball. :D

    Im doing that tomorrow. I do not like having to call up people I don't really know, it goes way out of my comfort zone. I'll probably end up working there during summer. I just submitted my application to Patt Lobb Toyota of McKinney so I pray that I get a job there

    Took my truck through the mud for the first time, when I finished fishing. I just about ripped that little 7pin tailer hook up off the bottom of the bumper. Terrible placement. Other than that I crawled through the mud with no problem. had to have some fun since the fish were not bitting.
