Cheese is pretty tempting…

Oh man, I think I would have to say either Taco - Puttin’On the Ritz or The Weather Girls - It’s Raining Men

No! He just hated the job. Thank you for that, I got a good laugh. He came from a very structured place, where he had a very specific job. We were much smaller, and the scope of our positions covered a lot more, and our workflow was not what he was accustomed to.

Doug 2 was technically Doug 5. But we didn’t have a descriptor for him. Well, we could have called him “Blood Pressure Doug” but that’s kind of insensitive. And he wasn’t around long enough to figure out a better one.

As somebody who worked in a place with 5 Dougs, I would say their names are Doug. Beyond that, they get descriptors. Angry Doug, Cool Doug, Vac-Former Doug, Smiley Doug, and Doug 2.

Are you sure??

Yes, admittedly. Don’t get me started on vintage staplers, either.

Watches, fountain pens, and Windows XP era hardware. I think those are my biggest. But I am also a sucker for 80s one-hit-wonders on vinyl. Oh man, and calculators.

Vices being drains on my expendable income. If we are talking something bad for you, I’d say indica gummies and bourbon. But those are (typically) pretty affordable.

Please, talk to me about these hobbies if you share them… nobody I know in person is interested.

But if I were to actually try to grow it this days, it would probably look more like this.

What caps are attached to bottles? I don’t think I have seen that.

Probably on the lips. Could also be the feet.

Yeah, I just looked at the Winchester Super X i usually get, ut is plated. Idk why I thought it was jacketed.

I lost it when my power went out and my chest freezer thawed…

Yup.

Play video games that use passwords instead of saves. Then, get better at remembering strings of characters. Find enjoyment with the things I have, as it would be a pain to get the same things every loop.

I ran the calculations back to when I just started out on my own after college. $15 = 10.78. If I took my brand new, big-boy job salary and subtracted my apartment cost (that I lived alone in), that is still $17/hr. Over 50% more than the adjusted proposed income. And I still managed to get 3k into credit card debt at that time. So, it wouldn’t even work for me if I were young and unmarried.

You load sixteen tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt.

No way, absolutely not. Even if I subtract my mortgage payments from my salary, $15/hr still less than a third of my remaining income. Plus, I have a wife and kid. We aren’t all fitting in a townhouse with two roommates.

Also, I don’t think I can go back to apartment living. I don’t like neighbors or people.
