    Noice

    It's a scam their going to harvest your kidneys.

    As long as they still give me money they can have my organs

    why do you think we have two kidneys

    Exactly, God had the foresight to grant us disposable income

    Guys, guys. This is big. Today I got a job offer for a lot more than I am making now. I told them I needed a day to think it over and give notice at my current job. For the rest of the day, I could barely focus on work. Tomorrow I'm going to march into my boss's office with the offer in hand to see if they can even come close. I doubt they will so I will have to give my notice.

    I'm all kinds of scared and excited.

    you da b est!!

    Just got to reference the Money Pit. In your face millenials who won't get this reference.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    On the getting paid front: I met with the Big Deal managing director about my letter of resignation and a counter position. He told me to go to glassdoor this weekend and put some numbers together.

    I'm going to put a goddamn deck together. For Fun.

    Slide One: Here's what glass door says the salary range of the position below me is. You will note that Im making below the mean. Glass door is bullshit.

    Slide two: Here's my offer letter for the company that hired my ass. You will note that it is significantly higher than my current salary.

    Slide 3 - 12: comps from other companies with skills bucketing because i fucking love making decks.

    my boss's boss called me at a quarter to 5 to check in and see how the meeting went. Earlier in the day he felt poorly and was brought to a nearby hospital in a fucking ambulance. He was released a few hours later and went home. I was still for some reason on his radar.

    Letting you guys know the next dank meme will be "it's a gay bar pamela" fresh off the dank meme tree.

    For context. The Saloon is not "a gay bar", it is the gayest bar.

    It's not like the Gay 90's, which is for hetero tourists trying to edgily check out the scene.

    It's for people who want to be offered poppers and push money in a slot at sudsy men behind plexiglass in their infamous shower competitions.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    This seems to be a day where a lot of people have new exciting stuff going on, changing careers and stuff.

    Happy then to announce publicly that I will keep working at my current job and have no plans to do go anywhere else, and I’ll never study anything again!
