rubberdinghy Posted December 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Two things you guys could do for me...1. Really good vibes that we get a last minute deal.2. Feel free to email your councillor and tell them how much the bus service means to you. Coucillors email addresses. Also...if anyone knows of any Xmas rush temporary jobs...I'm looking. I could carpool people to work for a minimal fee too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradm Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Not really, as I need access to the corporate network, which requires hardware/software I don't have (and can't get in time). I have a pretty good line on some carpooling, though, so I might be OK (albeit shifted in time a bit; one reason I don't carpool is because it puts you on someone else's schedule).Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Smart call Lisa............I've been trying to figure out who lives near me that we can help out in the mornings. I mentioned it to our Carleton-attending neighbour last night but her classes start much later than we go to work. Its up to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
