i don't like working for people
Mentally I mean
esp. people who don't know what they're doing
Yeah I know how it feels
My last boss couldn't even work with excel
hahaha really
He's a good guy and all
Yeah
I had a lot of recommendations
And helped streamline a bunch of stuff
Made excel templates for them to work with
i feel like such a douche getting all the MOS certs
It's not bad to have on a resume
But a lot of employers test candidates now
that's what i realized when i was at CMU
there was one other white dude there
everyone else was chinese or indian
this was around 2006
I like rice based foods more than corn based foods
Better on the digestive system
Put 10-20% of your earnings in there?
Id recommend something like Merrill Lynch but they were acquired by Bank of America
But putting some money into savings is good to do. You'll forget about it and it'll build up
$500 is pretty hard to survive on nowadays
How's your property tax?
Does it increase each year?
Sorry to probe too much
With that kind of salary, it's difficult to plan for the future
Can't really afford having kids and such (if you wanted them)
I set up a savings last year that was deducted from my pay
I only accrued $600 in it, but that's $600 that I would've blown on trivial stuff
Like beer
I didn't notice it being gone from my pay
500$ in USA has to be pocket change
I had days when i would be penniless and would get outside to see how the day goes without any money, and those usually turned out to be funny days
well i had this cafe where i would aways get free coffee and shit
and i wuld start from there
people still keep slapping me with miserable offers for my synth
and so on
You played synth in public?
