One Sad day for Hurricanes Fans

Erik Cole

I am so bummed. My all time favorite hockey player, Erik Cole got traded to the Edmonton Oilers....hmph! For those of you who don't me well, I am a HUGE hockey fan and I LOVE the Carolina Hurricanes. Erik grew up in Oswego, NY and it just so happens, that is where I went to college so I have been following him for awhile. He's a great player and the Oilers are lucky to have him. I do hope the Oilers give him a good welcoming considering he was a key player in the last 2 games of the 2006 Stanley Cup against the Oilers and my fellow hockey fans know that the Canes were the 2006 STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS!!!!!! Ah, memories!

Mom, Dad, Trish, Rob and I...GO CANES!!!

July seems to be off to a much better start! Even though I had to get my car fixed today and more was wrong with it than expected, it still was better than my whole month of June combined! I also found out some very interesting information. As you know, I was a nutritionist and Assistant Manager at LA Weight Loss until April of 2007. I was treated horribly and I lost all the respect for the company, my manager(s) and the regional managers. I was miserable there. I finally quit after putting up with their BS forever and then I became Ry's nanny. So one of the girls I used to work with called me today and she had found out some very interesting information. She had not received her W2 and she called the center we used to work at and she found out that our manager and regional mangers were no longer with the company. The company was in trouble last year when I left even though no one would admit it. Well, I guess they were really in trouble. The centers in Raleigh and surrounding areas were all franchised owned and in my opinion not run very well at all. So she called the company headquarters and the number was disconnected! Finally, a girl she knew from the center called her back and explained that LA Weight Loss was bought out by Corporate and they got rid of some people who were not an asset to the company and they even closed all the centers in the area except 2!! All I can say is I left at the right time (and so did my friend) and I am finally something was done about the the managers in that company, they needed to be fired! That news made my whole day. Revenge is so sweet!
