I say we have an awards ceremony.

 

[Chanakya]

MDF?

 

[Tonka Time]

That shit was fucking gold.

I'm about 80% sure I have a job now. Woot. Moneys.

 

[Zephyrus]

Pretty sure I'll be raking in 6K next semster (January thru April). Very excited about that. For an academic with only a couple BA degrees and working in his field, that's pretty fucking awesome.

Quid faces?

 

[Zephyrus]

διδάσκω τὰς τε Ἑλλήνων καὶ Ῥωμαίων γλῶσσας ἐν τῃ τῆς Μαίνης Ακαδήμειᾳ.

Doceo linguas Graecorum Romanorumque apud Universitatem Mainensem.

 

[Zephyrus]

Quid faces?

*Quid facis.

3rd conjugation.

 

[Vimana]

Oh. I confused it with the Spanish conjugation that would be haces. Sounds like a fun job. I'll be doing something like that, only with English in a couple months.

So... $1500 a month, if we guesstimate that you are spending the typical 40/hr workweek that half of graduate students do (some do way more, some way less), then that's what, $9.3 an hour?

Someone check my math for me.

 

[Zephyrus]

I do much less work per week for those classes than I would a menial job for that wage.

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

Making a shitload of money right out of college is pretty rare.

¿Os gusta?

[Vimana]

The strobe thing made me cry. It was still pretty cool, though.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

They have 2001: A Space Odyssey on here. I'm good.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Nothing like a hot shower after a seriously physical day of work.......now for a beer, Cheers all!

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

I need a winter coat, any ideas?
