What made you happy today?

[King Postwhore]

Thank you Adami. Tim, it's called the guest room not the cat room. Lol

[TAC]

Tim, it's called the guest room not the cat room. Lol

Sure it is...

[King Postwhore]

It's actually very neutral.

[TAC]

It's actually very neutered.

Gotcha.

[King Postwhore]

Me?  I'm an alley cat dude. Passing where I please.

[TAC]

I AM NO LONGER TALKING ABOUT CATS TONIGHT!!! 

[King Postwhore]

I saw a beautiful cardinal in my back yard today.

[svisser]

Two things from yesterday.....

One: it was my 3rd anniversary with my girlfriend.
Two: she bought me a Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face Mini!!

[TAC]

What on earth is a Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face Mini?

[Skeever]

My boss has been really good to me, so I am not ragging on him by any means. There was just one incident a while back where someone emailed the company on a Sunday evening about something (they sent it to the entire company so someone would see it), and because I did not see it and reply till first thing Monday, I got the thing about needing to check emails if they are paying for the phone.  I get it.  I didn't have an issue with it at all.  But, by not turning in my cell anymore, I don't have to worry about it anymore. I stress out about work enough already in general. 

This is why I never want a work phone. Sorry, but my family is more important to me than that to be checking work emails when I'm supposed to be home. There are busy periods and occasional late nights  like any job when something wild is going on, but as a regular matter of business I walk in at 8 and leave at 4:30 and don't look back. I'll walk out of this place the minute those expectations change on any more than a by-exception basis. Even if it meant taking a drastic paycut.

Like this?

Guessing it's a guitar effects pedal.

Fuzz is a type of effect, what he mentioned is a guitar pedal.

Side note, this is still the funniest name I've seen for a pedal:

That is no doubt a beautiful man (Paul Goldschmidt, I assume), but I was thinking more this:



If you're inclined to think that way, the cardinal, a vibrant red bird, is an uplifting, happy sign that those we have lost will live forever, so long as we keep their memory alive in our hearts.

[Dublagent66]

That's not true for Arizona Cardinals. 

[Stadler]

That's not true for Arizona Cardinals. 

Haha!

[frogprog]

Love cardinals (the birds). I have a few that come and go around my house. I also find them very uplifting when I see them!

[RodrigoAltaf]

I interviewed Derek AND Jordan on the same week!

So today is a big day for me as I've crossed off a bucket list item. I bought a 2019 Porsche 718 Cayman GTS!

I'm probably one of the bigger car guys on the forum so it's been my absolute dream to own a Porsche since I can remember. I had a deposit down for an allocation for a brand new GTS but it seemed unlikely I'd get one. I've never actually driven a GTS before so when the dealer who I had a deposit with said they had a used one I went to go take it for a drive.

After the encouraging words of my wife, "Buy this car so you fucking stop talking about it already", I pulled the trigger. I'm elated. I've never thought in my life I'd have the opportunity to own something like this.

[King Postwhore]

DUUUUUUDE!  HOLY SHIT!

Fucking hell! Boss!  Id imagine that wouldn't be a cheap car.

Yea I'm pretty excited, so much so I've only taken a couple of photos. Excuse the messy garage:

Aside from the house it's easily the most expensive thing I've bought which is wild considering I shared a room with my brother all the way until I moved out and lived out of my car a few times in my life. The car was listed for $87k but after some negotiation I got it for $82k.

Aren't wives awesome? 

[Glasser]

I found my left nut.

[wolfking]

I found my left nut.

Definitely something to be happy about. 

[ReaperKK]

Edit: nevermind I see the thread now

[JayOctavarium]

Just now...

Getting near the end of my route... In a step van (UPS style truck) with no AC... It's 95°... And customer met me at the curb and gave me an ice cold soda and bottle of water.

[Adami]

Verbally accepted a job offer back at a university after 6 awful months at a hospital. Was expecting a 10-15K pay cut cause of the setting, but ended up with less than a 4K cut. The job is an hour each way but luckily it’s by train so no driving stress. Still pretty happy about it!

[faizoff]

Congrats! Yay less money! 😁

[TAC]

That's awesome. An hour each way gives you plenty of time to DTF.

[Adami]

That's awesome. An hour each way gives you plenty of time to DTF.

There’s never enough time to disagree with Stadler completely. But this will sure help!

Since you got such a good break in your career, I'll work with you.  Cut down some of the back and forth. 

Can you share the university (in PM if need be)?  Will you be able to take public transportation at least?
