Do you feel the need to burn bridges? Or do you feel there are more people to discover where you're at right now? I'm at that stage in my life where pretty much most of my decisions are based on how my life gets richer on a social level.
By Gabyskra Go To PostDo you feel the need to burn bridges? Or do you feel there are more people to discover where you're at right now? I'm at that stage in my life where pretty much most of my decisions are based on how my life gets richer on a social level.Its not a burn bridges type of thing, its just an amazing irony to be called back to what I feel is (close to) my hometown after 8 years of trying to get away from it. I love it out in Hawaii and things are only going to get better in the next few months if I keep up the progress I've been making but jobs in my field are hard to come by. A salary position is really hard to immediately say no to.
Out here its amazing because every time I go out I meet someone with a background that I never would've encountered back home. Journalists from New Zealand, Chinese tourists, Japanese marathon runners, random as fuck astrologists on a honeymoon, Elvis impersonators, surfers, people like me who came out here because whynot
but this is a damned good job, and a couple of years there would allow me to enjoy what I have now even more because I'd have the money and stability to do so
Hawaii to Fayetteville (NC?)
what a time
That's tough. Better money and stability in one spot but....
...it's not Hawaii
And you seem to be comfortable in HI

I lowkey talked mad shit about never going back NC too. i'd step off to plane to nothing but 
from friends and family

By Smokey Go To Postmaybe…when them money bags start coming it'll flip real quickMoneybags and cheap-as-dirt cost-of-living especially when compared to Hawaii, too. What are you gonna do, DY?
By Smokey Go To Postmaybe…when them money bags start coming it'll flip real quickFor real... A salary would change a lot of shit.
Salary AND my GI bill would change a TON of shit.
Salary + GI Bill + deployment with a contractor/non-taxable income means I'm that dude that everyone is gonna point at and say the money changed him lol
Work just called and said they are understaffed and asked if I could come in.....
And I'm still going in to pick up my check. Gonna look my supervisor right in her fucking eyes.

I've gone from suicidal depression and having incredibly low self-esteem to having one of my professors say he loves me because I'm one of the most confident people he's ever met in under four years.

no sir
By GQman2121 Go To PostActing like all jobs do direct deposit, smh.

By DY_nasty Go To PostThey're shady af if they don't in 2015I didn't know you could get paid in other ways....
Psy moving weight
By DY_nasty Go To PostThey're shady af if they don't in 2015Not all jobs involve an hourly wage and hours you accrue and then get a pay out for. Consignment places, independent contracting, freelancing, etc.

By db Go To PostNot all jobs involve an hourly wage and hours you accrue and then get a pay out for. Consignment places, independent contracting, freelancing, etc.True.
Still creates a ton of work (or lack of) because of tax reasons, accountability in general, and bs. If a place CAN offer direct deposit and doesn't, I'd be sniffing my fingers.

Great to hear. Good shit.
Haven't been in here in a minute:
That major firm didn't want me partly because I don't live in the area.
School is kicking my ass and I want to quit but don't have other options.
I need to leave ASAP but can't.
Realized that my pickyness about relationships has cost me. Then again being mature enough to walk away from a situation is best for all.
Half my stuff is packed but nowhere to go.
Haven't been to my home state in 12+ years but realize that was almost two people ago and five degrees ago.
Found a letter from that time my father wanted to drop everything, bail him out, and accept responsibility for his well-being. He forged my name and sent it to a federal judge.... Almost got me for a federal perjury charge.
My bank account caused my card to expire so I'm fucked and might get audited.

Really sorry to hear that Fury. Hope it all works out in the end for you.
Also it is official official. Had first doctors visit today. Wife got a ultrasound. Saw my little mans on that screen. Little dot that was pulsing. I thought maybe it was the monitor acting funny...but naw...that was a heart. Barely anything right now but its enough to tell that it's a heart beat.
Sat back like...damn.
Then I got hyped. Due in March.

also happy bday my nigga DY. celebrating in the Hawaiian sun what a time
By IWMTB19 Go To PostI've gone from suicidal depression and having incredibly low self-esteem to having one of my professors say he loves me because I'm one of the most confident people he's ever met in under four years.Proud of you man. You're seriously one of my favorite posters and one of the funniest at that. Keep going. I use to have shitty ass self esteem due to being bullied throughout junior and some of high school. Throw in a tragedy and divorce along the way and you just begin to not give a shit what people think for the most part. At the end of the day you gotta be yourself and for you, that's a pretty awesome thing to be.

It's your birthday? Happy birthday bruh! Watching old basketball's as good a way to spend it as any I guess!
IWMTB - good to hear about your self esteem man. Depression is a bitch.
Smokey, congrats on having one on the way. I walked into a jewlery store for work today and was legit interested in looking at rings, finding someone you love changes you for sure.
I always thought I'd be a recluse with a million books or a player socialite, but never imagined myself settling down - up until about a year ago that all changed.

So just want to say I'm an idiot lol. Attended my first meetup last night and learned so much on how to get where I wanna be. Got a lot of useful information on what resources to use to learn web dev and where to go. Now I'm going to attend any hackathon and meetup I can. Signed up for so many events now it's absurd and thankfully they're all free to attend.
Also all I gotta say is for anyone trying to learn programming like me, attend any meetups you can and local events like hackathons. Of coursse ymmv depending on where you live. I'm lucky in the sense I live in the bay. I had no excuse to be floundering these last few months when the I live in the tech capital of the world ><.

as long as you come at him as being open to something short term its fine, but please don't pursue anything long term while keeping a near move secret
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postas long as you come at him as being open to something short term its fine, but please don't pursue anything long term while keeping a near move secret
I would be complete open about moving soon and I don't plan on anything long-term. I'm just saying that I'm going to be away from my family soon and not have to deal with any of their shit soon so I'm not sure how worth it the wrath would be instead of just waiting.
