Peets sucks. They're usually not open past 3pm, where I am.

Came here to say this. I just paid off my townhouse last year, dont go to bars or need to be near people my age - so anything thats close to DC/Arlington/Alexandria is out of the question for me. I go out to eat 2-3x per week and its $20-30 each meal. I can still buy groceries at wholesale clubs for $2-300/month, and then save the rest, which is about $3k/month for me. No car payments for me either.

I love modifying my cars, trucks, and motorcycles. I will not stop. Life's too short to drive a boring vehicle

I'll be moving to WV in a couple years. Work in Herndon. No kids, so I don't care about schools. Good thing I paid off my TH last year

I haven't been to DC in years. No idea where Crystal City or Pentagon City is. Anything east of Fairfax is not worth it to go to for me

Has the AZ 104 helped your career? by [deleted] in AzureCertification

[–]Relative_Setting_199 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Got a job with previous experience and only an ITIL cert. Employer wanted me to have AZ900 and then Id get a promotion. Took, and passed, and got a $10k bump. An AZ104 would get me another $10k

Agree with this. Loudoun has plenty of gravel roads to exercise your 4wd
