A friendly place for friends who drink

The job at Tallgrass is full time. We did just build a new office last year but its a very small company, only 3 employees. Ill still be doing data entry on nights and weekends so thatyll help them out and help me get some of my pay cut back through that. Plus ill still be doing the property management job i have now as well. Three jobs and school, sounds fun!!

Wow, what a masochi--I mean...good luck! Hope you find time to sleep.

Masochist. I just lean on my wife's paycheck.

I second this. It's not my fault she got the cushy university job that I turned down.. or, guess it kind of is.

 

[finsfan]

Classic overachiever.



Good luck with all that, square.

I wouldnt be doing it if i didnt have to be keep my "lifestyle". Ill probably drop the property management gig when I'm able to. Being a landlord sucks.

Haha if that was possible id drop one of the jobs. She has one semester left in her marketing major though, then i can stop paying all the bills and she helps out.

Haha it wont be too bad. Property management and data entry stuff will probably only be 10-15 hours a week combined. School should be over in a month or so as well. Its an at your own pace type curriculum and I'm already half way through week 4 of 13 and the class started last Sunday.

 

[Rhetorik]

Damn. Here I think I'm a little crazy for making plans to keep working full time when also started a Masters degree this fall on a part-time basis.

 

[SupervisingChildren]

Glad to not be back in school or working several jobs. One is more than enough for me, even if the pay isn't enough. Gotta have a sugar momma!

One lady was cursing that we all have a 2 pm appointment. No bueno when we're #7 signed in for 2 pm. Definitely getting home late today...

Testing the corrosive effects of methane gas on a pleather chair?

Plan is to go, but I forget when tickets go on sale.

Registration opens March 8th. Not sure if they're doing the lottery to register as usual like the past couple years, but it wouldn't surprise me.

I did school plus a job, and I also worked three jobs. I've never done school plus 2 or three gigs. Having just one job rules over the alternatives fo sho.

Fins is nuts.

Water. They're trying to make me actually work today and I'm having none of it.

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

Almost to the point where the tests will run themselves. Just have to deal with a few grad students and get them on the right track.

MY beer package from Nor Cal should be home when I get there this afternoon. I hope it does so I can tear into it after Cub Scouts.

It's really not as bad as it sounds like. Both "other" jobs are very flexible as to when I complete that work. Nothing for them is too time sensitive. And the Siebel class isnt too terribly time consuming either as long as I do one lesson a day. I'll be happy when things slow back down obviously, but happy I'm in the position to continue making what I do now, just a little more work involved.

Now everyone shut up about how crazy I am and go back to science/drinking/making fun of Psy for stick fighting/working, etc...

 

[Psylocide]

Awesome, buddy just dropped by work to give me a picture that his daughter drew for my daughter and a couple Alpine Pursuit of Hoppiness. They just started distributing here and I haven't picked anything up yet.

It's been at least a day since I insulted someone. Too tired to get snippy. 95 hours last week reminded me why I don't work 80 to 100 hours a week anymore.

Sorry. Cat gifs should have been included in that list.

I like Pursuit a lot. It's hoppy.

Derpcat gifs almost make me like cats. Almost.

Beware the burnout though. When I was working two jobs (one full time, one part time), plus school (full time), let alone three plus school, it was awful.

Ya crazy.

Remains to be seen if if it's crazy like a fox or just plain crazy.

I think I'll be able to manage my time well with these endeavors, nothing it too stressful or time sensitive. I honestly think I can even finish Siebel before I start at Tallgrass, which would be huge.

 

[TheCADJockey]

I absolutely hate cats. I'm assuming, as much as you hate free beer.

 

[Qhrumphf]

If you hate cats, you're a bad friend.

I just want to hear how many Big RICCs fit in your lunch box after your first day there.

Ehem.. let me rephrase. I hate having cats in my house. Barn cats, outside cats and friends with cats (though I don't have any) ((friends, or friends with cats)) are all fine.

This is what happened to me too. If I was single it might have been manageable, but not while married. My wife wasn't crazy about the fact that I'd come home from working 12 hours in the field, then have to keep working at home writing reports for the field work instead of spending time with her.

I don't regret doing it (the money was great and I learned a lot), but it wouldn't have been sustainable for a life-long career.

Was kind of going this direction:

We are pretty used to having conflicting schedules and have lived together for almost 4 years now. She teaches dance and goes to school so her days are on campus and nights are at the studio. She is really understanding of my situation and is very supportive. She is happy that I get an opportunity to do what I love. I couldn't ask for much more than that.
