Recruiters are the ones you had interview with? You should be fine. The company they ultimately send you to will pay out a rate for your services, and about 25% of what they pay out goes into recruiter agency's pockets... So they want to get you hired asap because it benefits them. A good recruiter is like a lawyer, theyre all evil bloodsuckers, except for your own, lmao. My favorite recruiter is through Teksystems. Hes a former car salesman, so full of s... it comes out his ears, lol. But in essence, your recruiter is a salesman and you're what he's selling. You shouldnt have anything to worry bout, they want their money:)
N n n n n no. A recruiter within OpenText, AKA Human Resources... I applied for the intern position about a week ago.

There is something in Seduces base I don't get along with and its not their cream base because I got it in Jezebel too
It doesn't make me sick (the way five pawns does) I just don't like it. I couldn't remember if you liked them or not when I sent what I sent. I just remember you saying you wanted to try some Absinthe juice and that one had that in there.
I still haven't tried Highbrow... I think that may be my next vender. I heard their strawberry lemonade is bomb and I'm tempted to try the cheesecake... but I'm afraid of the butter note. I'm not big on that, especially in vapes. But I love cheesecake... so if it tastes like cheesecake... IDK

has anyone ever had a good juicy fruit gum vape? I tried good life's juicy joose and it was ok but kinda flat and not strong enough
what's the best mint you ever had?
I've done DIY with it from TFA and it's good. Pretty straight forward flavor. Easy to DIY

does anyone know as far as mechanicals go most that use an 1860 also can use stacked 18350s does that mean the mah equals the total of the two 18350s or does it just double the voltage and only last as long as one or a little more? im so dumb all my mods are plug and play.

It actually adds up to 18700. The first 2 numbers are batt diameter, 18 mm. 3rd and 4th numbers are the height, an 18650 is 65 mm tall. Last number, 0 is actually a letter "O", which designates that batts are cylindrical. So, and 18350 is 35 mm tall, 35 times 2 = 70. Some mods will take an 18650 and a kick on top, some are only big enough to use flattop 18650s. As long as there's enough room/play in the spring, you can stack batts. I hear its not the safest thing to do, though.

Great idea! I think if i really want certain things I need to start doing that. There's just so many things I want to vape that I can't find.

who is TFA again? Who do you think makes the best flavorings overall? Or who should be avoided?

Seduce juice has been gross when I tried it. At the time I was fairly new to vaping, I dunno if it was just because I was only using mr-e, which is sweeter. They use that nasty ethyl maltol to sweeten, it doesnt get along with me a bit.

I am still working on my diy mint, it needs tweaking but its the only good diy ive ever done. My favorite mint otherwise though is Fuzion vapor Shammy Shakes. Unfortunately it was a seasonal run. Wish I had bought more!

I haven't tried Highbrow or HHV yet they are on my list somewhere lol. I want to try AiV Mind Toulouse. I shoulda went ahead and threw a bottle on my order last night. I am just in such a tight spot been trying not to stray too much. I know I don't like anise or licorice so I already know I probably wont like it. I am really trying to save up for a REO most days but then Im like "girl what are you doing it wouldn't be that bigger of a deal to just carry a w/rda and a ucan or something and drip yourself. I just am really having a hard time justifying the cost and the wait to have enough money. I have enough to get a new mech and rda and juice w/ the money I have saved for a reo and I only have about half!

I think my mistake with diy was trying to start with fruits. lost interest and patience quickly and gave up for awhile. I still have 3 I mixed Ive never even tried! They are just single flavors to get the "feel" of them see what the flavor is alone. My trade buddy says she is having really good success with her diy so far. I am so happy for her. The only thing she has bought recently was I think some Gentlemans Reserve after I sent her a sample and she couldn't quit vaping it lol

I was trying to figure out what makes juicy fruit gum taste the way it does, and saw this-has anyone ever eaten a jack fruit? I don't think I've seen it in a store ever

People often report that the (Southeast Asian) jack fruit tastes nearly identical to Juicy Fruit, but just which "fruit" serves as its flavor has been deliberately made vague by Wrigley's. Wrigley's apparently told Imponderables that banana is one crucial flavor among many others. It is likely, however, that the chemical used for flavoring is isopentenyl acetate, a carboxylic ester.

Perfumer's Apprentice has the Juicy Fruit and it's cheap so if you don't like it, not that big of a deal.
As for flavors... for me... the best are Flavour Art for fruit/dessert. Vaping Zone Super Concentrates for tobacco. The percentages are most consistent.

Thats exactly what kept me from buying a reo for so long. It will be worth every penny to never have oxidized nasty/wasted juice again. Stupid gennies, lol. Wish I wouldve just listened to the girls months ago and got one. The only other mod I use much is my vmod. I taste test w my kamry or zmax sometimes before I fill a reo/vmod bottle. Just save your money and get a reo, you probly will later anyways, lol

Nice. Theyre hiring in 1500 new people right now, and theyre canadian based so I bet mgmt is all polite and not aholes, lol.

I only talked briefly with the lady but she was very nice. Not sure if she personally was Canadian or what. They just bought out GXS so they are fairly new handling our area. My brother and dad both work full time at GXS and they love it. Open Text sounds like it's just as good or better. They actually will cover your gym membership because they want you to be healthy, up to like $300 a year or something. They have a small work out place on site. Great benefits, 401K all that if you're hired on. Interns, of course, don't get all that but my brother said he started at $12 an hour (which is much more than I make hourly now) and 25 hours a week (also more hours than I have) and on down time, you can study/do your homework.

Vapenectar from MR-e tastes dead on like juicyfruit. Before it steeps, it tastes like straight honeysucke, but after it tastes just like juicy fruit gum.

so if i try to make juicy fruit gum, or any other flavor that's typically sweet, do i have to add sweetener? Or is it already kinda sweet?
It is a little sweet. I would wait/hold off on adding sweetener. It doesn't take long (if at all) to steep and you can always add.

It's just a Help Desk position. Right now I'm making minimum wage so anything is a raise. LoL. And it gets me out of the elements and damage/miles on my car. My poor car is getting raped everyday on these roads. (potholes EVERYWHERE) And driving with these idiots gets old really quick. I was contemplating keeping both jobs but like my bro was saying... Why? 25 hours a week and full time school... I don't really know if I can do another 15-20 hours a week on top of that. Especially for the money I've been making. I worked today and it was a crappy day again. It even rained, which usually means we're busy but nope. I took 4 deliveries in 4 hours. (to give you perspective, I usually take at least 10)
