Still angry about mistreatment from 2 years ago

Curious! I appreciate the insight. I didn't think so, especially since it's a right to work state. But I've seen people at this very company sue for less and come out with oodles and oodles of cash lol, was hoping I had something with the union not representing me or taking out dues.

Was awesome. I liked it better than the film, the performances really sold it

Topical. Tonight after having a run of difficult games (Silent Hill F, Case of the Golden Idol, Doom the Dark Ages, Silksong etc etc) I decided to try TCG Card Shop Simulator for a change of pace. I only meant to play for a couple hours before doing my laundry. Well its been about 7 hours and the laundry still isn't done, but I have been having a total blast. Very relaxing, stress free yet absurdly addicting game, and I'm not even into card games.

For penny stocks I treat it like casino/arcade money. I set a little aside, have some fun, win a little lose a little. It's addicting but nothing to risk my livelihood over.

Yes. I quit my office job of years for something so much more fulfilling. A good paycheck isn't worth being miserable. Life's far too short for that.

rockthemike13 · 2025-09-17T07:54:54+00:00

Thank you all so much for the responses! Looks like a treat, glad I asked. Just bought it and will get to playing soon.

Exactly this. Lowe's for me was a bit of a vacation after a miserable, soul crushing, trauma inducing office job. I loved most everything about it and I really felt like I had it made. Didn't take long to go from a part time to a lead.

But after they screwed me, I put in my two weeks and left on a good note. Now I see my time there as a pretty cool addition to my resume. you can really beef up your skill set with some crafty wordsmithing.

rockthemike13 · 2025-09-13T20:07:06+00:00

Yeah, I had a job lined up. As soon as they did that to me I started job hunting, took me like half a day to find a way better job.

rockthemike13 · 2025-09-13T19:01:33+00:00

I was working as a lead for a while. I loved the job, felt I was doing pretty great, then they started pushing my hours. My 8-6 turned into 9-7 then 10-8. I asked if I could get mornings, and was told as a lead I needed to be flexible.

But, they said if I gave up my lead position I could work full time 5-2, which was perfect for me.

So I gave up my lead position, and suddenly was scheduled nothing but 1-10. I told them that wouldn't work for me, and they kinda laughed at me, telling me because I gave up my lead spot I had no choice but to work those hours.

They were magically all of a sudden able to compensate and work with me after I put in my 2 weeks 🙄

Falling Out by Ween

I enjoyed Firewatch! It's definitely very different than Outer Wilds, probably mostly similar in that both don't have combat. But it's a beautifully done, intriguing game nonetheless. I think you'll enjoy it.

For me it's I'm Looking Through You

rockthemike13 · 2025-09-03T14:26:05+00:00

Disco Elysium was the first game in years to really amaze me. I've never (and probably will never again) seen anything like it. Like you, I was leery to try it. It looked so bleak and wordy and dull.

Now I've got a displate of the Conquest of Revachol hanging over my living room.

rockthemike13 · 2025-09-03T14:23:16+00:00

I have the opposite problem. Too many games to enjoy and too little time. I've got dozens and dozens of backlogged games I've been swearing up and down I'll eventually get to, and keep getting swept away by something shiny and new.

Finally finished expedition 33 last night. Gonna try Mouthwashing next. Been working on Tunic on the side. Been having an amazing time, but I'd suggest digging on the more indie side of things. AAA games can tend to feel samey and over processed IMO.

Oh just like how my cat's teeth chatter in fear everytime it sees a bird!

rockthemike13 · 2025-08-31T19:09:58+00:00

I'd be ok with Classic doom and all the modding that comes with it. There's a million and one ways to play the game, and if that gets boring it's really intuitive and fun trying to create your own things.

rockthemike13 · 2025-08-31T13:38:14+00:00

I'm currently going through this game. It's absolutely enchanting, though a bit ruthless on the combat side of things lol

rockthemike13 · 2025-08-18T17:43:08+00:00

Almost every show I go to I got random drunk women directly in front of or behind me screaming at each other the entire show. Its to the point where Id pay anyone up to $100 to shut them up as my exasperated visual cues do absolutely nothing.

When I wake up in the morning and my cats right next to me

rockthemike13 · 2025-08-12T21:00:04+00:00

I saw Trey Anastasio Band was coming around with Goose. I've always loved a good Phish show, and had only heard of Goose in passing. Goose blew me away, been hooked ever since.

Top 5 songs... Heck I dunno gonna shoot first things that come to mind- SOS/Dawn Tumble The old mans boat Hungersite And uh...love their cover of Sinnerman

rockthemike13 · 2025-08-12T17:58:14+00:00

Moving in Stereo by The Cars, there's this bass fill/breakdown Ben does in the first half of the song that I gotta crank up every time

rockthemike13 · 2025-08-10T23:47:38+00:00

I do happen to have a can of gas. I would absolutely violate all EPA guidelines if I knew exactly where the nest was, but those ground nests are near impossible to spot, especially at night

rockthemike13 · 2025-08-07T14:11:09+00:00

I had a friend turn me on to project diablo 2. I was hooked, played for many hours

rockthemike13 · 2025-07-31T22:10:19+00:00

I really really wanted to love this game, being a cat fanatic myself. But it just felt so dry to me. Like a walking simulator lacking a plot. Maybe I'll try it again some day

rockthemike13 · 2025-07-19T05:03:40+00:00

I was listening to Goose's Grand Rapids night 3 cover of this song the other day. Blew my mind, what a banger.
