Hugh Mughnus Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 that's a positive imo that's the way I'm thinking too! But my wife is upset about it and doesn't want to move!!! So I ran the numbers and even if she stays here (where I own two houses) and I rent an apartment in Taber, I'll still come out ahead about 20,000 a year. Also the position is designed for 5 promotions in 7 years, with a minimum 8% of my salary as an annual bonus.... So it's ALL positive, I guess. Except my wife is mad. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get that money. Get your retirement and get out of the game. Then you can kick your habit with no demands or real stress right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 That's what I'm thinking! I'd love to retire early. REAL early. 45-50 years old early! lol I'm working on kicking the habit before then though. I've been working on it the last few weeks anyways. Things have been going good in that regard, last week I only had maybe 30 beers (I was on vacation). Would rather have a toke than get wasted lol.

Guest boo Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) moderate use is fine but steve, you are an addict. i can't believe anyone would encourage you to smoke. there's a high chance you'll just be stuck with two bad habits to get over.

I do have an addictive personality, you're right. But I've found that I don't use weed or cigarettes habitually for some reason. I can smoke weed once on the weekend and then not again for weeks or months. Honestly, I need to stay away from all substances you're right. But it might help to have something to fall back on as a tool to help with the alcohol, I'm not sure... =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenGOD Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Lol living in taber would suck for real. My fwp: need to start saving money for upcoming trip to Japan. But income has been low this month and grad school starts next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) Lol living in taber would suck for real. My fwp: need to start saving money for upcoming trip to Japan. But income has been low this month and grad school starts next month. I know! But it's enough money that even after renting an apartment out there I'd come out way ahead. And it's a tier 1 company (PepsiCo) and they want to fast track me into a sr position so it's kind of difficult to say no. I'm 24 so I don't think this level of opportunity will come around again... But taber... really? Well, to be fully honest they haven't put the full offer on the table yet. Fingers crossed.... Corn. =( Edited August 27, 2013 by StephenG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambermonk Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 After I parked in front of a restaurant earlier today, I lifted my left arm to see how bad I was shaking from all the caffeine in my body. As I did so, some woman who happened to walk past flipped me off, mistakenly thinking I was waving at her.She was rather unattractive anyway. But even if she looked like a supermodel, I wouldn't be waving unless I knew her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I considered posting in the other thread, but I posted my issue first here, and was only posting this as an update to my situation. Also, fuck a person that will flip you off for waving. But to add another FWP. The movers will be here in 11 hours and I have only just started packing.

spratters Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Can't decide whether to buy this tee off Bleep now it's 20% off. They diddled me with the wrong Fennesz order and I haven't managed to send it back so think it may be too late to now. I don't want to give them any more money but I would quite like the shirt. https://bleep.com/merch/622-jan-hkon-robson-she-asked-what-are-regular-polygons-t-shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
