  1. Yeah it's tough. Between the two of us we have roughly 70 k in debt and she is starting a small business right now so not really making anything. As a practical matter, I don't make enough to support both of us in an apartment with that kind if debt. Marriage doesn't work when you have to live in seperate houses with your parents
  2. We have to pay off loans before we pay for a big ass party The two people I interviewed with at the NP had 30 and 37 years experience respectively. I think they would get what I was doing I do think this other job, assuming it is the one listed on the website now, is more in line with what I'd like to be doing. Also likey comes with a raise With regards to my current job, basically what I do is indentify ways to save money and energy by selling new efficient stuff. Important? Sure it is? My field? Yeah sorta. The issue I have where I am now is I could see myself burning out. I fully expect to do grunt work, I'm the lowest guy on the ladder, but I see people that have been there a while just drained, talking about how migraines are a normal thing at this job. I'm not one to quit anything, so if there is nothing out there, I'm staying put and I'll kick ass at this job. But I think I owe to myself to hear their pitch
  3. Happiest mug shot ever
  4. Ha sorry guys. Haven't been fired yet but they are working me hard. No time to get on the board at this job. Work is fast paced, I'm learning a lot but the work isn't exactly the most stimulating. Something interesting happened today however. In the midst of having 8 projects dropped on my desk on day 6 of my new job, I got an email from another local company that does something similar wanting to meet me for lunch either this week or next week. I know one of the project managers there from school and he recommended me. I actually didn't notice the email until a few mins ago because I am convinced my employer checks our online activity and I don't check my personal at work because I am still pursuing that other job for next year and having a regular correspondence with the NP people. Anyone been in this position? How do I hear what they have to say without getting fired? No updates to life plans. Wearing big boy pants and started last week. She's still on board. We are no rush for the wedding tho. Still have a lot we want to do before then. Her mom asks her once a month if I'm going to propose soon haha
  5. Yeah Josh McCown should bring in some viewers
  6. Because Vick is awful? In HS we won a game 35 to 7 without attempting a single pass
  7. Im not sure trading for a busted wheels, inaccurate, can't read a defense QB is better than keeping our own inaccurate QB and a draft pick Bob Griffen has been awful since he came back injury. AWFUL.
  8. Sierra Nevada is a good brewery. I wrote a paper about their operation and sustainability stuff. Really interesting. Applied to work at their new plant in NC but I didn't get the job I like Southern Tier Helles. Really delicious. The head brewmaster is a friend of mine and he's so good at combining flavors and hops.
  9. Does anyone know if these two work together? My brother is without cable and hoping to watch some of these games this afternoon. Does he need to go to the bar or will this work? Thanks
  10. Cool. I've seen him interacting with fans at TC. He seems like a nice guy, loves his job
  11. @JasonLaCanfora: Hearing Jon Bon Jovi will be introduced as Bills owner tomorrow. Trump to be Vice Owner until next presidential bid
  12. Its a niche market. I know people that would do this but admittedly I hang out with nature nerds from time to time and some of them would probably jump on it. Me personally, I wouldn't be one of the first to buy it, I may eventually if enough people persuaded me however. The sustainability stuff is cool and something I'm always interested in. But its a tough market to be in. Its growing but like others have said, you are selling to to trader joes and thats it
  13. This offseason reminds me off last off season for the Bills. We signed Graham, Rivers and Spikes. All solid pro bowl talent players to boost our defense. The D was good in 2013, but lacked depth. Those signings made a big difference This year we focused on improving an anemic offense. Adding Cassel, Clay, Harvin, McCoy and Felton Pro Bowl Talent and solid players. We now have depth on the offense. I expect a big leap for the Bills
  14. The Harbaragh Curse
  15. I'm not. Spiller is a fantastic talent that had a great season basically being a screen pass receiver. The rest of his career has been one huge run every 4 games followed by 3 games with 58 yards each. We missed him last year because Boobie Dixon was our best back at times last year. Doesn't make him a good back
  16. Or that he no longer had A-Rod throwing him the ball
  17. He looked awful in that game against us. I think he is overrated
  18. Sat behind his wife and kids at the opener. Really nice people. Kids kept asking Mom if Dad made the tackle
  19. Did this change the Vegas odds at all?
  20. Agree to a point. Brady is a great QB. He does get some calls to go his way but he is a tremendously talented guy with an incredible work ethic. I think he would have made it in any time period
