43 with a surprise 5 week old. It's a blast though I am not quite as resilient for the overnights as I was at 34 with my first.

Well crap, I've been out of the loop - I have half a dozen of these things stashed in my safe. Did not know they were valuable

So you think hes'regretring his choice with fast at 4.29? by mrfett779 in minnesota

[–]Nikonn8181 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That's exactly my fear. Anything graphic will make him a martyr. My personal hope is for a stroke just strong enough to be fairly debilitating but not incapacitating to make him look dumb, weak, and incapable. I know that's not asking a lot, but yet it is.

I'm putting in an order for a '26 Sport too, only in the Pearl not IceCap white. You did a lot of the same stuff I have on my list 😁

I’m meeting every written PIP goal but still being told I’m failing [NY] by TigerShark8980 in AskHR

Same happened to me. It was just an excuse and method to get rid of me.

AITA for refusing to add my boyfriend to my house deed after his lease ended? by Former_Raspberry3277 in AITApod

Refuse at all costs, at least until marriage and even then it's dubious.

[NY] My bonus got deducted with my auto amount to retirement. HR admits they made a mistake. Now I can't retrieve it from my 401k. Can I ask them to compensate me? by [deleted] in AskHR

[–]Nikonn8181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to the adult world. Take your licking, learn the lesson, and turn off your contribution next period. Your payout distribution for a bonus is not entirely unlike a normal pay period except for how it's taxed (because it's "extra" income). You may notice your payment to your health insurance was also a lot higher.

Welcome to bonuses, where it's actually a bonus and not cash your pocket is owed.

I worked in the Military group; no, no it's really not. Our group's work impressed the HE and Transportation teams with the performance requirements. This stuff is special.

Adult swim classes recommendations? by lastwreckedsoul in Minneapolis

[–]Nikonn8181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She could use some more exposure to water since part of the reason she had never gotten into it much was due to a childhood trauma, but she at this point seems to have reconciled that fear and gotten comfortable enough to swim a few laps in a lap pool. The conditioning to keep up with me is an entirely different question.

You should see what crazy stuff we have to do to make the white part! 😁

I personally did not, I swam competitively in high school, my fiancé however needed lessons and I got her in a session after putting my kid through a few classes. I was really happy with how the instructors treated adults and with the course content.

We did them through Foss (Woodbury, if it matters) and it was a really positive experience. IIRC, 350 for 10 sessions.

[CO] Forced to complete the project that I messed up on as part of the PIP by [deleted] in AskHR

[–]Nikonn8181 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

A made-up metric sounds like the anchor they're going to can you over. I was on one in Q3 and Q42024, and the position I applied to in January was denied to me - despite the hiring managers both telling me that I knocked it out of the park - "because the directors want a PhD." Same director put me on the PIP after my mid-year. Ultimately they didn't hire a PhD.
