How far is the lake from u skippa? I wish I could go out for a afternoon sess

This one is about 40 - 45 minutes depending on traffic. I need to check the mileage, not really far just slow posted speeds.

Thanks, I'll let u know. What do you think bout the pay question? Don't bring it up unless they do?

I just did a quick search and every where is no.

They liked your résumé, you wowed them with your cover letter and now it's time for the interview. You've answered all of the tough questions but there's one area that remains to be discussed: salary. Should you bring it up?

In short: no. There are serious repercussions for job candidates bringing up salary before the employer does, says Ronald Kaufman, author of "Anatomy of Success."

"If the candidate brings up the money first, it could imply that's their main focus and they'll leave as soon as they get a better salary somewhere else," Kaufman says. "I want someone who wants a long-term career with my company and who wants to do the work they're interviewing for."

Additionally, if salary is brought up too early, candidates run the risk of being offered the low end of the scale.

"Once an employer gets to know you and how you can help them to achieve their goals, there's a greater likelihood that they'll offer the higher end of the scale or even a better job," Kaufman says.

What is the salary for this position?
Do not ask this question on a first interview. If you know that you will refuse a job that pays less than a certain amount, you can state the amount in your cover letter. However, if you are even somewhat flexible regarding salary, it is best not to discuss compensation until you are offered a position.

Ding hasn't been posting, he is busy hosting.

Nah - I'm happy to keep away from traffic snarls and such from POTUS hanging around here for three days. Actually, I read that they weren't shutting down all roads along his path like normal. His motorcade was actually driving through traffic and stopping at red lights for a change, which even split the motorcade a couple times.
