Welp, I put in notice at work. I'll be jobless come the 23rd. Doing some rough estimating, I have enough projected savings to get me through July-ish. Which is fine, because I intend on working part-time between now and then, and because I can work full-time again once the spring semester is over come June-ish. And since I won't be working full-time anymore, I can take more than 12 credits a semester, which means I can get this college thing done sooner and cheaper. And it also means I'll get more financial aid come next semester because I won't have a full-time job anymore. Nevertheless, this is kind of terrifying.

Your boss sounded like a cream puff so I"m surprised you couldn't finagle him into part time,.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

That's an interesting take on my boss...
Regardless, my position being full-time is mandated by my company's contract with the FDA, so it's not really a negotiable thing.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.

Hmm, that's a new one. I've heard of government contracts requiring that vendor workers to be US citizens but never full time. Learn something new every day.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

That does definitely sounds more strict then the government contracts that our company is used to dealing with.
(I do love the who's allowed to talk to whom) How the hell can that be monitored or enforced?It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

So, the other night, the furnace broke somehow when it was ~20 F outside, leading to me being a very frustrated dude. While attempting to fix said furnace problems, I also got into an argument with EBF about some various things. I was being an ******* (mostly in response to her being really arrogant), so I relayed the fact that I was ****ing freezing and this was having a negative impact on my mood. Her response was:
****ing hippies.Originally posted by EBF
