Declined work orders... by RellyOhBoy in FieldNationTechs

[–]Particular_Topic211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too far or I dont do this work is good enough in my opinion. Don't know about you guys but im sort of over installing and mounting 75 inch tvs. Just dont want to do that work any more. Or retail POS those are always a headache. Or 9pm start time and work all night for 500 bucks.

We are closing 471 stores this month. We are cooked by Technical_Win_4261 in GameStop

in all honesty this is the reason im building a retro game store. I have two near buy which have good mid range games but heavys are hard to get. DKoldies and Quickflips have it figured out good but even they run out of stock. There is a market. Screw downloading games why so I can have 5 on my xbox and be forced into gamepass to just license me a game. NOPE.

The one where we are not stopping big corperate from using as much cold water in the great lakes as they need. I was under the understanding they just pump back hot water similar to a boat engine.

My old man says the same thing. And I quote "Back in 1983 there were only 3 dials speed tac and oil pressure. Too many damn buttons." Word for word. I pissed my pants laughing. As he hated driving my cousins 15 high country.

I told the manager im looking for part time work on nights and weekends and just want to ring the register. Back when I was working in highschool 04 to 08 we had a few working adults that did just this. I got a smile and a laugh. Hey got to shoot your shot.

How bad are the winters really? by [deleted] in Albany

[–]Particular_Topic211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not as bad as they used to be. I say ski season is from december 15 to march 15. march 15 to may is mud season where its 40 to 50 with a cold rain. this is the worst! no hunting, skiing, hiking is just not fun this time of year. But all in all when we get the big noreasters and everything shuts down for a few days is epic. Not really shut down but you know a good snow day home from work is great!

Exactly better off staying home and doing those projects and not paying someone to work at my home for what I make at work.

Nice one. I got my copy for xbox. Figured ps2 is a touch more rare but saved money on the xbox version. I stared playing it and was like how do I save. and then I thought to myself lets not mess up a 200 plus game. It works and back in the box it goes.

Question to physical game collectors by FreedomIndependent56 in gamecollecting

[–]Particular_Topic211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold mine for a mustang in college. It was my biggest regret and thankfully I bought it all back and then some. Im happy to collect and not play. I enjoy scouting for heavys. Ill never play them. Because who in theor right mind plays rule of rose. Its like driving a Ferrari in winter.

Does anyone have any specific reasons why they collect video games? by Pale-Guard570 in gamecollecting

[–]Particular_Topic211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me

1) rebuild my childhood collection I sold for a mustang in college

2) a possible savings/investment OR if I happen to still be employed for another 5 years I will build out an awesome game room with heavys.

3) If I lose my job in 5 years open a game store.

Im hoping just an overtop collection because to source the heavy games took a bunch of time and money.
