      • David B. - Hi Mr. Adams!
        If we happened to mess up three times on three different job applications, is there anywhere where we might be able to print out a template of the sheet?
        Thanks
      • Mr. Adams - Dana, yes, that's correct.
        David, you'll need to come see me for another copy. For some reason, we still use an old application for this course, and I've never had an electronic copy!
    • Nilda A. - Mr. Adams tommorow morning I will have to drop by your classroom to get another job application, since I had created amistake when my dad ask, "Did she say fillet migmon?" and the one before that my penexploded on it. So yeah I have bad luck with the Job Applications. (:
