The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

I fucking hate when I'm caught up at work. I have a serious guilt complex about being on the clock and not being productive. Boss has nothing for me, guess I'll start a pointless algorithm.

This is me almost every day tbh. This is what happens when you only have one project and are still relatively inexperienced (in your current role) and don't really have concrete deadlines.

Going through this whole shizzle finding a new job for myself to finish my tundra leech episode of life. I just need to do something ffs.

Found out about a job and had an interview on tuesday, the guy said ok you should talk to the woman from abroad so I had a Skype interview yesterday and dude called me later after consulting it with her and offered me a lower position because I have no experience. Now I'm not sure if I actually want to work my way up to do a job I wasn't sure I wanted in the first place.

But I just as well might so I at least do something and gain some experience. I have to decide today as well. They want things quick.

I decided to work.

I decided not to be a tundra leach.

I could stay home for another month but nah. That wouldn't do any good.

You can be productive without working on work projects.

I don't remember seeing a pic of HBB anywhere.

You must have missed all of my glorious posts of his pretty face.

Must be nice. We are fucking slammed right now due to how well the market is doing. It sucks. Plus I now I have to be on a bullshit record retention project because one of the senior team leads who used to be on it quit yesterday.

Kicking back on the couch with a nice cold beer after working in 40+ degree heat all day. I had 13 jobs on me and I did 9 of them then got a text from the state manager telling me to close the rest off as not done due to weather and go home before I kill myself.

Yeah this 30+ degree heat here is starting to melt the snow.

Poem about the winter mornings that expresses my dislike for waking up early in the winter:

“My bed, it is warm
The shower, it is warm
But the space between my bed and the shower
No
That is not warm.” -unknown

My mate gave me a pick from when he saw Destruction overseas, thrown to him by Schmier.

Here's something for @HamburgerBoy. People playing shitty music with dildo bilboes.

I haven't watched the video, but I can't imagine that being worse than Lars Ulrich's drum sound on recent Metallica albums.

Wish we could get a good critical theory inspired breakdown of the implicit and explicit arguments of power, sex, patriarchy, and colonial exploitation in that video.

Just wrote a bitchy letter to the IRS. I pay all my tuition out of pocket but my dumbass community college always puts the totals in box 2 - amounts billed - instead of box 1 - amounts received. And my dumbass didn't include receipts last year. I sure am glad the IRS caught it though, because upon further review of my records I paid for mandatory digital homework applications and didn't include them. Totally deductible.

Basically my letter reads like hey thanks for trying to fuck with me because I don't owe you, you owe me.

anyone smart on investments? is it financially 'smarter' to split retirement $'s or 100%?

for instance,



better to split between C and S or stick 100% in C or S?

I just know that conventional advice is to split your money more towards riskier investments earlier on in life, and slowly slide it more to safer investments as you age.
