OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away
:notwrong: There are a lot of reasons I didn't apply for my Director's role when it was open a year ago. Hard fucking no. Maybe I'd feel differently in SIK status versus DINK status though. I'm very fortunate in that I really don't need 20 more K. I’m Considering applying to a leadership program in...

OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away
So they want to give me this promotion at work. I’d go from high level engineer to managing a team of 17. So that’s the good news. Bad news is based on the pay they want to offer me, it would be a $2k/yr pay cut. So. I told them what I make now which surprised the hiring manager, and they’re going ...

I'm am terribly sorry about this sir. Did not realize I was dancing around such a sensitive subject. Thanks for sharing. It’s ok man, you didn’t know. Everyone asks that question at our age, and I used to just tell people no, I don’t have kids. But I loved him and there’s no use in lying. Also, it ...

:sad: I'm sorry to hear that man... fuckin' sucks. CFI was pretty decent overall I thought. The reality is they have more demand than there is supply for fertility treatment in the area and so it's a bit of a churn and burn vibe. Dr. Messen has a very interesting bed side manner. I probably like Dr...

Really starting to use the lingo man. You have no cf? Our son Brawley died shortly after giving birth in July 2020. We were supposed to wait at least a 1.5 years before trying again. We didn’t, and of course there’s always the what if it happens again that scares the wife…. And me too honestly. I d...

Sitting at a fertility clinic doctors office waiting on our consultation for IVF. Was supposed to be at 1, some chick just came out and said the doctor will be another hour. So like 2:30. I asked what’s the point of an appointment then? 15 minutes late, I get it, but when we don’t start until after...

In desert weight loss news, I have dropped from 237 to 227. That is fat to "not as fat" The drop to 217 would make me "not fat" and the next drop to 207 would make me pretty legit @ age 55. Anything less than 207 would require me to really alter my leisure lifestyle and spend a L...

Yea I have a sick car addiction and I follow the market very closely. Stellantis is the canary in the coal mine. They are also the biggest dicks in the coal mine. The prices they are charging for Jeeps/SUVs is/was pure opportunistic rape which was admittedly fueled by an idiotic public's willingnes...
