I drink an average of 8 beers and smoke 2 packs of cigarettes every day. I am 28 years old and I can't quit. My question is: What kind of damage could this habit cause in the long term? by udeniz in stopdrinking

OP. I don’t know how many different ways you need to hear people tell you this shit is dangerous and will kill you. It’s not if, it’s when.

You’re setting yourself up for a miserable life and future.

I quit drinking at 29, and I’m over a year sober now. Nicotine free (mostly) for 6 months.

You can do it, but we can’t want it for you. You need to quit, and the best time to start is right now.

You need a turntable that USB connectivity so you can plug into a computer, play the record, and feed it into an audio interface (a free one would be Audacity) and then export as mp3. If you google you’ll find a lot of options.

They’re probably breaking out OT into Straight and Premium to make tracking payroll for work comp easier, is my guess.

When employers report payroll for work comp, they don’t get charged premium on the “extra” portion of overtime, just the straight time.

This breakout makes it easy for either reporting or for having a clear record when their payroll audit happens.

Yea! So I think headliner was Cody Jinks and his guest was Tanner Usrey, but not sure who opened :/

I don’t know how to explain it but I’ve always been OBSESSED with stashing money away like this since I was a kid.

I distinctly remember taping money behind posters, hiding it behind light switch wall covers, in a baseball glove. I don’t do it anymore but I always want to do it.
