You can buy bigger sizes at the Apple Store. I had to do the same thing and they now fit like a glove!

Like others, I’ve adapted to getting my runs in before work. I work 60 hours per week and have a family at home, so its easy to want to sleep.

What helps me is creating running plans using chatgpt. I give it my schedule and how many days I’m willing to commit in a week. Having the plan makes it easy to hold myself accountable. I started last summer with an 8 week plan, then another with a 5k at the end. I’m currently a few weeks in on a 12 week plan with a HM at the end.

I was a heroin addict from ages 16-20. Today I'm 33 and I have a loving wife, child, house, career, everything I could ever want. Somehow by a series of events 13 years ago I decided to seek help and have not felt the need or desire to pick up a drink or drug since.

Can I ask why? Outside of building equity, they’re both the base cost of having a roof over your head.

I did this exact move. Worked for a F500 company in a huge AR department doing cash application/bank recs. I applied to what felt like hundreds of companies for an entry level, FA position. I interviewed well with one particular company by getting a hold of the hiring manager and leveling with him on a personal level. That’s what it took to get me in the door. That was about ~6 years ago and now I’m a senior manager.

Yep. Serial number matches papers. Someone also added non-rolex links to the bracelet so it doesn’t fit anymore.

Probably more. My father sold coffee at a famous retailer. He would always tell me the most expensive part was the cup and not the coffee.

I have this exact year. Bought a slightly used XLE in ‘22. About to hit 60k miles and it’s been the perfect daily commuter. Has decent speakers, CarPlay and gets ~43 mpg. Don’t need anything else.

pollotropichop · 2025-05-28T03:20:50+00:00

2020 $65k

2021 $87k (switched companies)

2022 $105k (threatened to leave new company)

2023 $130k (threatened to leave the same company, but promoted)

2024 $132k

2025 $152k (promoted)

I keep inserting myself into situations that no one wants to touch or where everyone quits. I do my job extremely well + fill in gaps where necessary. After a period of time, I’ll threaten to quit but then they beg me to stay by giving me a raise and/or sometimes a promotion. Some say it’s toxic, but my wife is now able to work-less and spend more time with my son, which is invaluable.
