I want some good news.
My employer offered me a modest severance package, and set my last day to be the first working day of the month, meaning my health care benefits are valid for almost a full month after my last day.
Tell me you’re American without telling me you’re American
Cool! Good luck with the next chapter of life!
I just quit my soul-sucking job yesterday. I’m ecstatic to not have to go and sit in that office again.
Congratulations!
Congrats!! If you don’t mind me asking : Is it two weeks of ‘I don’t care about y’ all? Or just said F it and left?
I did put in my two weeks, but I had nothing I was working on and I canceled my meetings, so now I’m still laying in bed instead of freezing my ass off in a cubicle :)
More power to you!
Prepare for mental stability. Good for you!
my game did pretty well on a gamejam
You wanna share?
Not much to share (・–・;)ゞ. But for 3h I’m satisfied. https://prti.itch.io/overcharge
As my mom would say- I woke up on the right side of the dirt.
The company that lost my $3500 computer a month ago finally sent off a free replacement and it’ll be here next week! Normally, they replace it with a refurbished one but since they don’t have any, I’m getting a new one.
You’re important enough for a new one, nice!
A “good” thing from a bad thing: my 6 year old computer monitor decided to croak today. As it’s currently black friday deals, I managed to order a new one fairly cheap-o.
Nice! I just had/got to replace my phone.
The other day I made butter chicken and it was one of the best butter chickens I’d had, at least as good as restaurant quality. Can’t wait to make it again and it was my 2nd try ever so I think I nailed it pretty quick. Wicked proud of that.
Nice!
I am traveling through Greece with my girlfriend. After a nice (and exhausting) hiking route we are back in the hotel – one of the best rooms I have ever been to. She is having a shower and I am chilling over the bed. At this very moment everything feels great.
Damn. That’s worth savoring.
Traveling is amazing! Wish I would do more. Stay safe!
I started my own business where I get to take advantage of landlords 🥲 it’s pretty much my dream
Where the hell do I sign up
If you can do stuff, literally just on the Thumbtack app lmfao landlords get on there when they need repairs done, so I do them and they pay whatever I want. I fleeced landlords to the tune of like $2000 last week, only worked 3 days.
Then when I get honest hardworking customers, I cut them a break. The landlords subsidize the regular people.
…then next year pass on the costs to their tenants
Bravo
Rent has actually been going down in my area for the last few years, and they pay me enough that I can do stuff for like the elderly or the impoverished for drastically reduced rates. So I’m good with it.
Leave it to lemmings to make even Robin Hood-ing landlords into something bad 😂
I don’t usually like to use clichés, but that definitely seems to be God’s work. Keep it up!
My wife is preggo and the baby looks healthy
Oh man congrats!
I remember when mine told me she is pregnant, I was so happy I wanted to jump!
Congrats on your baby!
Thx fam
Congrats! Remember these years because they’ll fly by as you try to keep up.
I like to think that they don’t “fly by” as in “pass” because they keep being a part of who we have become, parent and child alike.
I ordered more edibles for tomorrow which means I have an extra one for today and I won’t run out like I thought I would.
Thinking ahead, nice! Future you will thank you!
My partner and I both woke up early and are getting breakfast together
Great way to start a day!
I just got offered a new job after rage quitting a really bad one. I’ll be working with at-risk kids in a group home, basically a low security facility for kids who have either had run-ins with the law and need a second chance or who just don’t have anywhere else to go. I’m excited, for once I feel like I’m going to be doing work that’s actually important and not just making some wealthy idiot wealthier.
Congrats! That sounds like actually meaningful work.
Doing something important in your profession has a certain value that money won’t fulfill. Congrats!
I mean, the money’s not bad either 🤣 so I don’t have to worry so much about Christmas presents now
Hard to be mad in the moment when my 9 month old smiles, makes me forget about the mess for a while
Wish I could look my kids in the eyes again when they were that little. Congrats! I hope for many healthy years.
my kid slept the whole night last night. first time. I didn’t even know what to do when I woke up and no one was crying.
That is just amazing! Been there, felt that! Enjoy!
I was lucky with both of my kids. They both started sleeping through the night relatively quick.
Good for you! Now, on to the next parenting challenge, but at least you’ll be getting better sleep.
