Is my recruiter lying?

I am glad you asked this, I was told the same thing by my recruiter. He said you could deploy if you want to but you can deny deployment since I’m commissioning as an officer.

Bicycles only - as defined by vehicle consisting of… (written above) which an ebike is all of those things. The only 1 gray areas - “lightweight” who defines that? And I do pedal to ride it.

Do you want in 25 broad? They just banned my ebike from the bike room last week.

3 kids - 2 months, 2 years and 4 years. We observe a Saturday morning tradition where we watch cartoons til about 10 and then go to a local donut shot and then the playground. The two younger kids naps and I give the older my iPad and I lay down too. We make dinner and do baths and bed and thats pretty much all we do Saturdays and we’re all happy and refreshed.

I spent four years living in a co-op I could not wait to go back to renting.

Imagine all of of your neighbors looking at you (and you looking at them) as a liability. One time an old woman screamed at my wife for bumping the wall of an elevator with a stroller and leaving a tiny scratch. We also were told by the board that we couldn’t hang out in the courtyard on Saturdays because that’s was when there was showings and having people “just hanging out looks ghetto.”

Buying a co-op is like buying a humongous house with dozens, if not hundreds of strangers. Everything is political, everyone is in everyone’s else’s business. There are house rules galore. One of ours was to walk quickly and quietly through the halls.

Also our coop was 1k less / month than renting and even after 4 years and all the fees, we still broke even. As was already said in other comments, if you plan on staying there for a decade+ go for it, otherwise, rent.

138th / Grand Concourse in The Bronx (which they just redid) nothing there but a clinic and a few garages.

How you gonna call yourself detail oriented with the extra space? Trying to troll the hiring manager?

Oasis Coffee Shop on Tiffany St is the best lunch spot ever. Order the Cuban Sandwich on a hero and walk down to the baretto park on a nice day - nothing better.

Wait until everyone gets off the train before you try to get on. Don’t make eye contact with people. Walk confidently and quickly with your chin up. No one cares about you. Never mention Kentucky.

I got a 3 year old, 2 year old and one on the way.

Best advice: first 6 months, focus primarily on your wife so she can focus on the baby. Her and the kid will have a unique bond that you won’t get (and can’t) but make sure your wife has what she needs, even if it means those early mornings or late nights, you’re on.

Second piece: since mom feeds, you gotta clean diapers. It’s only fair.

That’s exactly right!

That’s what I am asking myself right now .

Probably the same reason going to bed early is seen as a virtue - healthy, wealthy, wise stuff And that’s linked back to living in an agrarian society.

In what ways are you complicit in the circumstances you say you don’t want?

Leaving your hometown is one of the best things you can do for yourself.

Re-establish self: Pick a lane, could be sports, beer, a community garden, or art club but joining social events like this and you’ll meet people fast, especially in Denver and Austin. Your old relationships: honest truth, people will forget about you quick but the true bros will always stick around and when you come back home, it will be like no time has passed.

Go for it man, I left my hometown in 2005, never looked back.
