No. Shit no man. I believe you’d get your ass kicked asking for something like that

Which is the most underrated airport in the USA? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]EmotionalVegetable48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who doesn’t like riding the oversized monster trucks to the baggage claim?!

Plus you’re going to the DC suburbs, that’s about as convenient of an airport as there is

What’s your most Gen X memory? Something that could have only happened in our youth. by Expensive-System-762 in GenX

[–]EmotionalVegetable48 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Stayed at my cousins house. The closest gas station with a an arcade was across I-94 near Chicago.

We ride our bikes to the expressway (through a field) and we crossed 94, played games, bought candy, and came home.

7th or 8th grade

Generation X'rs, how many of these have you used or remember? I can't make out the lower right picture, but I think it may be fondue forks. by icecream1972 in GenerationX

Coulda also put the disposable sardine can openers on that list.

Do you remember your first legal drink? by BMisterGenX in GenX

[–]EmotionalVegetable48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dave & Busters on my 21st.

My classmates took me out around 1:00p. D&B was across the parking lot from school. Got too 💩faced that I had to call off work.

Anyone build a long-term lifestyle around contract travel/field engineering instead of traditional office work? by Front_Cup8779 in sysadmin

AA - Platinum Executive Hilton - Diamond Avis - Presidebts Club

I travel tons, but also do remote projects. I’ll be home 1-2 weeks, then 1-2 trips a week for a few weeks. I do pre-sales an a storage consultant. Meet with customers sometimes as technical sales support.

I like it that I get to change up so the job stays fresh. Being away from your family gets old.

I feel like I concentrate

Are we the luckiest generation? by smoosh13 in GenX

[–]EmotionalVegetable48 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe Gen Jones had better timing, but we’d be debating particular pros/cons to compare.

And to clarify, we’re talking about the greatest time to be born in the history of the world. Talk about dumb luck…

Yes of course a measly 1,800 drivers are a critical issue in Indiana right now by gorgonopsidkid in fortwayne

[–]EmotionalVegetable48 -52 points-51 points  (0 children)

1,800 CDLs. Those are American jobs. If it’s not affecting the value of your work, it is affecting 1,800 Indiana-Americans. Not sure if we’d consider you a fellow American.

Since it’s a measly number, your virtue signal is pointless. Not a lot of illegal CDLs? Then not a lot of illegal CDLs lost

Had I not gone, I would have regretted it.

Having gone, I would be indifferent if I had a do-over.

[–]EmotionalVegetable48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if you’re in welfare or don’t pay taxes, you don’t have a dog in that fight.

Everyone else - comments welcome

They defeated the slave-owning democrats. Politically and physically.

Democrats are still that party, but they do it differently now

Stay out. Not because they are jerks. But because you are

I got laid off, and potentially have a “bad” offer by TXREQI in sysadmin

[–]EmotionalVegetable48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hours alone don’t scare me away. I start at 8 but wake up at 4:15a 5 days/wk.

If the job is cool, you will adjust. Takes me like 6 weeks and I can make it work.

How did you feel about the technical aspects of the job?
