Christmas? more like Hollween!
Howdy! Y'all-
I wonder if her lip is packed with snuff? Or chawing a wad of tobacco.
The necessity for anyone to "attempt" to diminish the accomplishments of others, especially this young girl, is simply the work of small negative minds. She's more accomplished, wholesome, and driven then the majority of young people that I get to see or read about in the media today.
She will have fun in the Pits!
You go girlfriend!
Easy to guess how she got the job.
About as funny as driver #7 dannica ding-a-ling something.
That's no easy job, and I challenge any of the expert typists here to beat her tome. BTW, she got the job because she can not only beat the time, she's motivated and energetic about learning more.
How many of you commenting here have similar employees, co-workers, or even friends?
I know the answer to this, really.
