Hi, Robert...and welcome to the okctalk forum. The Dell building project is looking great, and we are all looking forward to all the new jobs that it will be bringing. We are especially happy to see all of the new jobs that were created when the construction began......yours being one of them .

Anyway, feel free to jump in on the discussions that we have here, and get to know the others on this forum. We have a friendly bunch of people that post on okctalk, and there is always something going on.

Hello...

My name is Brian. I'm 32 yrs old and am currently living in Moore. I have a daughter, age 7, and am recently separated. I have lived in Oklahoma all my life.

I'm 5'10, brown hair/eyes, somewhat overweight (hey, I'm working on it). I wear glasses some of the time.

I have a great sense of humor and love to laugh. I'm a big kid at heart, but definitely know the appropriate times to be serious.

I work in one of the many call centers in the OKC metro area, providing world class customer service to many wireless phone users throughout the country. (lol, how's that for some B.S. ) Seriously though, I do work in cust service, and I do enjoy my job. I have been involved this occupation, in various forms, for 10+ years. I enjoy working with people and giving a helping hand when possible.

My interests include surfing the 'net (otherwise why would I be here), hanging out with friends (either in small groups or one-on-one), current events, politics, movies, music. I am considered to have a middle-of-the-road and somewhat liberal view on various issues, but am open minded and am willing to listen to opposing view points, no matter how wrong they might be. (hehe...see? there's that sense of humor I was talking about)

I'm looking for new friends to chat/talk with. I check my email often and usually have some sort of chat program running (usually Yahoo Msgr or AIM).

Hi Brian, and welcome to okctalk. Hey, thanks for letting us know a little more about you. I think you will have a great time posting on okctalk, and I know that there are many friendly people that will welcome you here. You say you work for a wireless company....I hope it is Cingular, since that is who I am with .

Either way, thanks for taking time out to register, and I hope to see you on here often.

Yes, I do work for Cingular, by way of AT&T Wireless. Our call center was incorporated into Cingular due to the merger.

Hi, I'm new here today. My name is Erin. I just moved to Oklahoma City with my partner in December 2004, so I'm still getting to know the city and finding my way around. I'm...ummmm...between jobs right now, but ACTIVELY looking (please let me know if you know of any job openings. At this point, I'll consider almost anything!). Once I pay down the balance on my student loan, I will be going to OSU-OKC to study nursing. Anything else you want to know, just ask. It's good to meet everyone.

WOW! Thank you, Google. Finally, Oklahoma Cityans who are as excited about OKC as I am!

My name is Andrew and I'm originally from the conformist suburbia known as Edmond. I am now in Stillwater attending OSU as a 3rd year architecture major. I have grown up in the OKC metro and, unlike nearly all of my classmates, I wish to stay in OKC for life. OKC is THE place to be in the new century!

Hello all!
I stumbled across this site yesterday (by accident) and was pleased to find a site like this, so much so I became a premium member on the same day.

I wanted to briefly introduce myself. I am a small business owner of a marketing consulting and graphic design company in Oklahoma City. I am married, father of two wonderful girls, a Lhasa Apso and two fickle felines. I enjoy researching and discussing politics and social justice issues. I also enjoy football, hockey and NASCAR.

So, that's the Reader's Digest version. Glad to be on board.
