Belle, I have heard that. I attended a meeting several years ago where a hand writing expert was suppose to tell us something about us by the way we wrote. Unfortunately, she didn't get around to our group. She did say if our letters were large & not connected (mine are that way sometimes..but it made me a certain way & if I wasn't, the opposite I would be just the opposite.) She had so many people there & everyone wanted their handwriting read. So they drew names. Mine didn't come up.,so I figured it wasn't meant to be. Like you said, many businesses this as part of their interview. ~J ----- Original Message ----- From: "Belle Shepherd" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2010 8:24 PM Subject: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Handwriting.. > Hello all, > > Many companies use Handwriting Analysts in qualifying new employees for > high responsibility positions.

Belle, I know what you mean. When I graduated from college I had my BA degree in education & I was ready to teach any grade K-9. I know today it seems like young people walk away with a diploma & they aren't able to do much. Makes one wonder why they ever bothered to attend college. In addition, if they didn't pay for their own college education, I bet after all that their parents had paid out for them to go to college, it was a big disappointment to the parents if their child couldn't do anything worth while. I would have loved to have been a mouse in the corner when you were interviewing those gals...especially the one who wanted the position of a bookkeeper. Makes one wonder how they would come to a place like they did thinking that they would be eligible for a position. I mailed an e-mail to the So-Chat Group about a young girl who was a cashier at a drive-up window at a McDonalds. The patron gave the cashier extra money so that it would make it easier on the cashier. Well, this gal got all confused & said that she couldn't give change like that. She even went & got her supervisor & the supervisor told the patron that they didn't do business like that. Hard to believe how either of these people got the jobs which they did. Belle, you are on that list..once you read what I sent out, you will understand what I'm talking about. I just shake my head when I see people do some of the things that they do nowadays. The people who are cashiers in stores really don't have to use their brains. They just scan the item & it goes into the register. Makes you wonder what they would do if they had an old time cash register...or better yet, a cash box. I worked with a cash box when I was a cashier in an old restaurant near my home between when I was attending college. That meant that I had to use my brain & watch the money carefully when it came in. ~J ----- Original Message ----- From: "Belle Shepherd" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2010 8:01 PM Subject: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Fw: [KYHeritageFolklore] School subjects... > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Belle Shepherd > To: [email protected] > Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2010 7:52 PM > Subject: Re: [KYHeritageFolklore] School subjects... > > > Hello all, > Every year, this country is floodedwith thousands of 'uneducated > Graduates' from various schools, colleges, etc. Going through school and > getting a Diploma was all important and most of the time a guarantee of > employment.

Hello all, Many companies use Handwriting Analysts in qualifying new employees for high responsibility positions. Many character traits can be uncovered by these methods. Sloppy, disconnected letters suggests one mught be unorganized in his work. Small wring, though letter perfect denotes a narrow mind and selfish character. Bold letters , neatly spaced and says an honest, generous person and one who will get the job done and do it right. There are several books out there on the subject, very interesting. Regards, BELLE

Hello all, Every year, this country is floodedwith thousands of 'uneducated Graduates' from various schools, colleges, etc. Going through school and getting a Diploma was all important and most of the time a guarantee of employment. Not anymore. Your Diploma was saying you were now EDUCATED.Not anymore! At one time I was in the position of checking application for new employees for the company. Handwriting and spelling were very important. One can really discover character traits in a person by checking on these. Many of the applications went in the 'round file' , others to be gone over and given to our Supervisor for more checking. One day I had an application that interested me more than others. The old blanks had a space to report you religion, this applicant had tried to spell Presbyterian , gave it up, crossed it out and printed BABTEST.

I think all states are different in what they teach now days.Cheyanne was taught printing and cursive almost at the same time.They started with printing in kindergarten and half way thru kinder. They started with cursive.So by the time she started 1st grade she had a good understanding of both.Or at least that's the theory.It worked in Cheyannes case.

That's what my dad said. I didn't understand what he was talking about at the time, but later in life figured out what he meant. Kay In a message dated 02/15/10 21:05:25 Central Standard Time, [email protected] writes: I have a booklet titled "What about the Ouija board?". It says one of the perils of the board is what might be termed progressive entrapment. Without going into a lot of detail, it says it is so clearly identified with the occult and the demonic, Scripture must be heeded. The Bible condemns all forms of occultism. The experiences of many involved also argue for complete avoidance of the board. I agree with their explanation. I didn't want anything to do with anything that could control my mind.

Such a great story, Southern Belle ! Hubby's great Grandfather was considered to be a True Dreamer....Once the neighborhood General Store had a contest...If you could guess what was in the back of a chiming wall clock you got it and the clock...Grandpa laid down on the bed and covered his face. After awhile he got up and said lets go to the store...It's a $100.00 gold certificate...Sure enough...when they opened up the clock there it was....He got the clock and certificate. That would be worth a thousand dollars or more now , I guess......Jeannie T ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Sun, 14 Feb 2010 23:08:09 -0800 "Belle Shepherd" <[email protected].net> writes: Back in the early 30's my Mother took me with her to visit a Westmoreland cousin in Demorest.

I have a booklet titled "What about the Ouija board?". It says one of the perils of the board is what might be termed progressive entrapment. Without going into a lot of detail, it says it is so clearly identified with the occult and the demonic, Scripture must be heeded. The Bible condemns all forms of occultism. The experiences of many involved also argue for complete avoidance of the board. I agree with their explanation. I didn't want anything to do with anything that could control my mind.

A friend of mine brought a ouija board to our house when I was in the 12th grade. My dad had a fit, forbade me to ever touch one again, so that was the end of that.

Well, Kay & Emma..I really appreciate that fact that you knew how to spell quija. I think people tend to go over-board on things like this. Just like my s-i-l, once she got involved with this board, that's about she did with her time. She was so positive that everything that she learned on that board was the gospel. Come to think of it, someone in my dorm in college had a quiji board & sometimes when we had nothing to do, we would sit down & fool around with it. Like I said, we had nothing else to do...that's far from being addicted to it like Ginger was!! ~J ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 15, 2010 4:50 PM Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Wise woman.. >I have heard all kinds of bad things abt them.But don't have any personal >experiences with them. > Linda > Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T > > -----Original Message----- > From: Roses <[email protected]> > Date: Mon, 15 Feb 2010 16:30:31 > To: southern-chat<[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Wise woman.. > > > I was at a party when the daughter brought out a Ouija board.
