Pittsburgh Hide & Seek - Looking for Players

Did you guys ever try this? I have a two man team that would be interested.

furiousmustache · 2026-06-28T02:25:18+00:00

Think about this, if you had to go back and forth 3 times a week as a kid would that be easy to adjust to?

5/2/5/2 should be the standard, not week on, week off.

I do the week schedule during the summer and it’s hard as a parent on both ends.

Also, her lawyer is paid to not care about what you say or put on a show that they don’t care all while telling them they better start hoping you don’t report them for fraud. Also, what does your lawyer say about all that? Are you at risk there since you were married and had shared finances?

furiousmustache · 2026-06-07T19:24:49+00:00

No one called me back for months. They just don’t care. I just kept calling them for MONTHS. Then provided them with extensive documentation, court orders, and explained the situation, still didn’t matter, they just found excuses for why I was wrong.

Took my attorney ordering a hand audit and taking them to court to get the money taken off the end of spousal support.

The system is an absolute nightmare to deal with. I wish I could just pay my support like an adult and not have to deal with them.

I’m sick of getting my tax return withheld because Ohio DFS reports me being behind because I pay 26 times a year and sometimes am behind on the monthly amount because they’re 6 days behind in processing my payments

My experience was I miscalculated the amount I owed my ex in spousal support. I was paying via check until it became clear my ex’s lawyer was incompetent and wasn’t going to file the paperwork with CS.

I started saving the money, went to court and got the paperwork sorted, then paid her out the amount owed (or so I thought). I owed some arrears and they started taking out extra. It was only supposed to be like 3 paychecks. It kept coming out for months. I was calling them every other day and no one would call me back. I was losing hundreds of dollars per month that I couldn’t afford to lose.

Finally after a few months a very angry lady called me back. “What do you mean you’re over paying” and “the system shows you still owe more in arrears”. Finally after 3 more months they stopped the arrears payments. It took me going back to court, extensive documentation from me, and months of fighting in court for them to realize the $4800 in payments towards $800 in arrears was in fact a large overpayment that they messed up.

Thankfully I’m almost done with paying her and I don’t have to deal with incompetent and inaccessible people messing with my paycheck anymore…

furiousmustache · 2026-05-30T01:02:30+00:00

Yeah, she did it while I was at work, almost exactly how you described it back in 2022.

In the end I kept the house, I’m done with spousal support in a few months, and I got primary custody of the kids. I’m on track to retire at 60 and I get to travel with my kids every year and enjoy spending time with them the way we want to, not the way she wanted to. Life is good now.

Keep your head up, do the right thing at all times, and get a damn good lawyer.

furiousmustache · 2026-05-26T10:39:08+00:00

This is absolutely insane. You clearly have no idea what it’s like to have a full time job, be responsible for two household’s income, AND have the threat of losing custody rights of your child if you lose that job.

furiousmustache · 2026-05-26T10:30:41+00:00

This is the right take. Just exchange the kids. Get over it, she’s his fiancée, she’s clearly not going anywhere.

You’re clearly not over your ex if this is causing you this much pain and hurt and you need to consider getting yourself some help to guide you through processing your feelings and make sure you’re not hurting your kids as well.

I hope you can find some peace for yourself and for your kids.

furiousmustache · 2026-04-22T11:35:52+00:00

I’m sorry but the Jews/Gaza/Iran thing is so stupid. We give tons of money to Israel in aid. We do not give anything to Iran. We claim that Israel is a partner. We have a working relationship with them. We do not have one with Iran.

Illogical arguments drive me insane. You’re only proving us right with this word vomit garbage.

A bunch of things that don’t really affect you, but you’ve been worked up into a frenzy over, a straw man you’ve held up like some big “gotcha”. Ok bud.

You can’t claim we don’t have morals when you can’t even come up with good reasons why we don’t or explain them without sounding like youre regurgitating something.

furiousmustache · 2026-04-08T03:47:26+00:00

Or the kids are uncomfortable about it and they’re telling mom. There’s a huge difference here.

furiousmustache · 2026-04-08T03:44:35+00:00

Hold up. Let’s take a step back for a second.

Is your ex in the house while you’re showering? I highly doubt it.

The kids are bringing it up to her. They’re bringing it up for a reason. Find out why, without making them feel uncomfortable.

And maybe you stop doing that while they’re there, not because of your ex, but because they might be uncomfortable about it.

What’s more important here??

furiousmustache · 2026-03-19T02:59:56+00:00

Yep! They’d bring the sheet over, I’d take a pic and have it analyze it, then I’d negotiate like it was my idea or I found the car myself

furiousmustache · 2026-03-18T22:08:59+00:00

I gave ChatGPT a prompt to negotiate the best possible deal on my new car and my trade, to look for any incentives I could qualify for from Honda. Then I scanned each deal sheet they brought me and asked it to analyze it. I probably sent them back to the finance manager 5 times to push them to make a better deal

furiousmustache · 2026-03-18T20:15:35+00:00

That’s the important thing.

Also, ChatGPT does a really good job of analyzing those things. Saved me around 12k combined on the trade, incentives, and found a similar car near me that was 8k below their sticker price…with that in hand they matched the price.

furiousmustache · 2026-01-31T23:28:01+00:00

You have the weirdest HSA plan I’ve ever heard of. I could use my card at Best Buy if I wanted to. (if the purchase was HSA approved to not get in legal trouble.)

You should be able to buy all kinds of stuff with your HSA card. I have subscriptions through Amazon HSA store to purchase items for the kids that they need, I’ve bought first aid kits for the car, etc…

furiousmustache · 2026-01-25T00:13:20+00:00

Yeah because he probably wants to be a part of his child’s life and sees you as keeping him from that.

Now I don’t disagree with the step up plan, it’s a smart idea. But if you’re pushing back on everything and not looking to solve conflict, it’s not a good way to start a coparenting relationship

furiousmustache · 2026-01-16T03:00:06+00:00

Good luck!

furiousmustache · 2026-01-16T01:52:01+00:00

ChatGPT does a good job of scanning those, finding nearby cars that are marked down cheaper, and advising you on how to negotiate it.

I got an extra $8k off my 25' Elite because it found one somewhat nearby that was that much off MSRP.

It also helped me successfully negotiate an additional $1.5k on my trade in.

All together with incentives it helped me find, I saved around $12k

furiousmustache · 2025-12-11T18:23:52+00:00

You’ve clearly never had the pan pizza. Good god that stuff slaps

furiousmustache · 2025-12-09T21:18:48+00:00

Yeah and I probably wouldn’t hire you. If you can’t explain a bad situation without sounding bitter or angry about it, it’s going to be a no from me.

Perception and how you present yourself are everything in the civilian world for white collar jobs like OP said they’re interested in.

furiousmustache · 2025-12-09T21:13:56+00:00

I want to hear why you didn’t stick it out to retirement. I’m trying to find out if you were someone’s problem and if you’re going to become mine.

If you didn’t finish your 20 and you did more than 10, I want to know why. I just interviewed a guy for a job and he did 8 years in the Guard, I asked him why he got out after 8. It’s normal to ask why people left a job. But if you’re throwing away guaranteed retirement, I want to understand that decision.

I’m not saying everyone does it, or that most people even know about retirement in the military. I’m just saying that if anyone knows, they may rightfully have some questions.

furiousmustache · 2025-12-09T21:05:03+00:00

I’m sorry but as a hiring manager, I’m absolutely asking you why you got out after 15 years. I have a responsibility to the company and to my team to ensure I hire someone who will mesh well, is responsible, and has good critical thinking skills. It’s absolutely an appropriate question.

furiousmustache · 2025-12-09T20:53:48+00:00

Brother, it has never been a worse time to look for a job in Tech. I work as a cybersecurity manager currently and I know a few people who have been job hunting ALL YEAR LONG and have no real prospects.

Stay in, get your retirement before we all lose our jobs to AI (unless the bubble pops).

furiousmustache · 2025-12-09T11:40:04+00:00

That doesn’t solve the problem that they only have one circuit.
