Payroll Professional??
Well, I can't really think of anything fabulous to talk about so I am posting a picture of my hubby..yeh, he looks real happy don't he? He always looks this way in pictures. He is my little hottie. I luv him. Anyways, I have to tell you bitches about my latest thing to obsess and worry about.
I am taking something called the FPC test on October 14th. Just in case you want to get a quick overview here is the link. http://www.americanpayroll.org/fpc-outline.html
This is a test for Payroll Professionals just like me (WTF?) and it just gives you something to brag about at your place of employment and that is basically it. Most people don't care enough about PAYROLL to actually take the test but for some reason my dumbass has decided this is something that I need to do in my life. I am trying to study for it which I should actually be doing right now but I am sitting here blogging about it instead..imagine that.
Anyways, I had to pay $255 to take the test and if I pass my company will reimburse me that money. If I fail, well..let's just hope I don't fail. And what is the reward for passing? Well funny you ask me that... it would allow me to put F.P.C at the end of my title in my auto signature and letters and business cards(WOO FUCKING HOO HAH). Yeh, I will get a little recognition from my company but that is about it. I have the book which is THICK as a motherfucker and so far I have made it to page 20 (of like 200). I am figuring since I haven't taken a TEST since 12th grade that I should have been studying my ass off about 2 months ago. But, I have had better things to do like go to California and meet my blogger friends, Motley Crue..etc..you get the picture. I AM FREAKING OUT. If I don't pass this, everyone will know and I will be hu-fucking-miliated! It is pretty hard shit too. The test is an all day thing, taken at some strange place with a bunch of strange people sitting and staring at a computer calculating, answering questions ALL FUCKING DAY. I suck at studying, always have, always will. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO??????? Wish me luck, I am gonna need it!
Must

Oh my little Pissy friend. You will do just fine. Taking tests is a little easier as an adult I have found.
You will kick some Payroll ass and then your name will be Mrs. Pissy Britches, Bitch with a lot of letters after her name.-

Mrs. Pissy,
I'm sure that testing in this case is simply a way to "validate" all that you do know... meaning you've had life experience and OJT-- that'll definitely count for something! Think of all of the good bloggin' things you can write about after you test... the smell of a cold sweat and the "nerd" packs filled with calculators, pencils. ;) To supplement, don't forget to wear/bring your lucky [insert lucky item name here]! So don't worry the teats off a boar hog about it-- You'll do great! :)-

If I can get through algebra, you can get through this.
Honestly, that is saying A HELL OF A LOT!-

You can do this, girl!! You DO have plenty of time. I agree with what everyone else has said.
Try not to freak out. Take a deeeeeep breath. Now take ANOTHER one. You KNOW this shit. Think of it as icing on your cake.
Then you can be proud when your business cards say "Fucking Payroll Clerk!"-

Oh man, payroll sucks. I was the payroll clerk where I work for about 8 years. I'm so glad I don't have to deal with that pain in the ass anymore lol. Good luck on your test!!! I've got my fingers and toes crossed for ya.

Thanks guys.
Well luckily I don't DO the payroll, I sell payroll services to companies. A lot different but you pretty much have to know the same things.-

You get business cards? You lucky bitch.
I'm gonna make my own business cards. They're gonna be pink and say, "I'm the coolest chick you'll ever meet."
Good luck on your test!-

you'll do just fine Pissy.
and if the Rock was giving that test naked,,,, I would take that test in a New York second, I might fail but who cares?-

Heh, my last job was working for a payroll company (ADP). Now your fuckity fuck fuck language makes perfect sense ;-)
Good luck! You will do just fine.-

STUDY STUDY STUDY, from now til then. But don't forget to come and blog during that time, too. You'll pass it - you GOTTA. You're SMART and FUNNY and, well, pretty near perfect, so it's a given... except that you need to study, too.
Remind us just before the test, so we don't forget to send you "passing" vibes.
And take a little lesson from me (who recently flunked a work-related certification test) - STUDY, dammit!
PS I passed it when I retook it 2 days later! ;)
