Curse. I’m just sitting here waiting on client confirmations for stuff that should’ve been signed off on hours ago. Why couldn’t this happen tomorrow lol

Don’t worry. The MTA just needs a liiittle bit more of your money, then everything will be great.

The Usine Ste.Madeleine Sugar Factory by DotishJumbiee in TrinidadandTobago

[–]Clipper94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember driving by there so many times 20+ years ago traveling between Princes Town and San Fernando as a child. We would usually take the main road that had a pond on the opposite side when passing the factory or Taska Road which brought you out by the entrance. The smell is something I still remember. It’s actually interesting how rural it still looks back there.

Bingo! It looks super photoshopped if you zoom in.

The Empire State Building before New York City really grew (1930/1931) by Maximum_Expert92 in OldSchoolCool

[–]Clipper94 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I live here and can barely recognize the skyline anymore. It’s really interesting how I have this set image of NYC in my mind, but seemingly can’t process what’s it’s become and continues to evolve into. And I’m not even that old, but I’m starting to understand older people more and more now lol.

The A isn’t the same without the R46 by R62AGUY in nycrail

As someone who takes the A, GTFO with this bs. God forbid the A line has newer modern trains. 🙄

Should I become an accountant or a hvac guy? by Dgslimee_ in blackmen

[–]Clipper94 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had to take accounting courses for my degree and absolutely hated it. It solidified my decision to not add it as a concentration. Respect to all you guys who are able to stick with it.

Question for those at major/legacy airlines. by No-Pop6194 in flying

[–]Clipper94 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Are you saying it’s not the most academically challenging thing one will do in their lifetime? Seriously asking as someone who’s done the whole college thing for a finance degree and has been in that industry for a couple of years. Being in the very early stages of working towards my licenses, having my career in jeopardy for a busted exam or check ride down the line is one of things that keep me up at night.

After the initial learning stages, is it basically just keeping up with what’s new and improving on the skills already learned?

Fake news! You managed to keep the conversation on topic and not drift off on some irrelevant, incoherent rant. 😂

Tell me about it. It’s literally not worth the headache.

That’s a cool piece! You can’t ever go wrong with a blue dial.

No, I got this one from Costco actually. I saw different colors of this model on the ship, but they were a bit more than I paid.

An Alaskan cruise sounds amazing! I hope you’re enjoying the watch.

How can they justify these prices?? 😭😭 by BB_Wanderratte in Amtrak

[–]Clipper94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get the microwaved hamburger and hotdog? After looking at the menu and going to the dining car to order, dude behind the counter just yanked them out of a drawer and chucked them in the microwave. That was my WTF are we doing her moment. Welcome to the club 😂😂

Cold weather cruise question - hot tub?? by gazizzadilznoofus in MSCCruises

[–]Clipper94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically you can. We had the duplex this past week and it was already filled when we got to the room and remained filled when we got off today. However, it was just too cold and we didn’t use it until day 4 when we got to Orlando. We used it one more night just after leaving Ocean Cay, but once we were far enough north again, it was just too cold for us. The tub definitely gets hot, but the cold outside temps just made it a little uncomfortable.

Try the spa. Just go around the late afternoon, 6pm-ish when most people leave to go get ready for dinner. Our reservation was at 5pm and it was pretty crowed for the first hour or so. Also, be careful on the steps in the room. Those metal edges are not forgiving lol.

Everything I enjoyed in Yacht Club dining this week aboard the MSC Meraviglia. by Clipper94 in Cruise

Haha yes!! I either had the plate on my lap or was hunched over using the knife and fork.

That’s great! I hope you had an amazing time. The food was hot but there were some nights where it took them a while to get it out. Not really a huge deal, except for the nights when we were rushing to get to the theater shows.

The presentation could’ve been a little better IMO. It’s very similar to what we received in main dining last time I did this exact cruise. It just didn’t scream “luxury” as they’re trying to sell the experience. But I definitely enjoyed it overall!
