hey marla, thanks for the compliments.. but not only do I have "2" kids in highschool (jr. and freshman) I also have a 20 yr old son.. (still living at home at that) being a young mom had a few advantages.. LOL what kinda job are you doing that you get tested on? Theresa

Thersa! your picture says you look about 26-32, now your telling me you have a 20 yr old as well geeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzz, when the weight comes off do you just start looking young or what!!! For your question about my new job, Its t-mobile,(Customer service rep) Im in the training right now, and for me its tough, I have about 3wks left, then we go to the floor(start taking live calls from public)YIKES!!!! The highlight of this job however is the benefits, and the people and atmoshere at the job site is rare, they actually have lots of fun at the job and oh how was i delighted to find out that (Aetna plus plan) covers gastric bypass!! It has to be medically necessary and ooohh how it so is!!! So i just got to keep passing the tests and ill be cool. talk with ya later. marla c.

hey marla, actually I am 37.. I had my son (if you look at my WWW you can see pic's of him too) when I was 17.. the wieght thing and looking younger/older is all about genetic's and GOOD MAKE UP.. LOL (long blonde hair doesn't hurt either.. LOL) also that pic was taken 2 years ago at 240'ish pounds. it's my favorite pic is why I keep it up. I am not photogenic so if I find one I like I'm keeping it.. congrats on the job.. I didn't realize T-mobile was so customer sevice oreintated.. SHHHHHHH don't let tammy see this!!! I think it's T-MOBILE that she is having some serious issues with.. (tammy, maybe you have an insider to some help here!!) but what ever the job is, WHOO HOO it has ins. to pay for surgery!! Theresa

Marla, HI! I work at T-Mobile/ Welcome. It is definitely a fun place to work, but be ready for one thing. This place has a lot of rewards for jobs well done and the majority of rewards are food related. Not that I can tajke advantage of that since i jsut had DS 6/28/04. But the people are great. Are you in day training or night? Maybe I will see you there. Sheri PS. I have 4 b9oys living at home... 21 year old starting college, 17 year old starting college, 16 year old going into 11 grade and 7 year old going intol the second grade.

I have one daughter (Kirstin) going into 7th grade and has killed us financially with clothing bills. I have a son who is going into kindergarden this year too. Kirstin takes karate along with me and now my son wants to do that too...cripes! I will be spending $250 a month for karate; I should start my own martial arts school.
