I’m the guy who ditched his IT career to work at Lowe’s. Been going pretty well, except for the pay of course. Only been a month and the GM and a couple of AGMs are noticing me, giving me better/different work.
Seems I’m not getting so many evening hours, that’s my main complaint. This spring I bet I can go full daytime hours.
Being part-time allows me to pursue some woodworking projects I hope to make money on, and the 10% employee discount doesn’t hurt!
May I ask what made you ditch your IT career?
I’m in an IT career as well (admin work), relatively a newcomer (finished my apprenticeship 1-2 years ago), but honestly I’ve already considering whether this is right for me. Don’t get me wrong, I love the work itself, just knowing that so many companies underfunding their IT department and thus causing more stress for it makes me question whether this is something I want to subject myself to.
I like eating bones.
I’m going out this weekend, an acquaintance is wanting to unload their magic the gathering collection and they’re going to hook me up with the whole thing for free. I’m excited to go through it all, I know there’s a handful of decks on top of everything else. Haven’t played much recently, but maybe this will be the push I need to return?
Wow, that’s very cool. I’m envious. You might want to keep the decks intact - whenever I make a deck it’s an expression of my personality and creativity so I’d hate for someone to take apart all of my decks if they inherited my collection
Oh, I’m doubtful im going to take them apart for exactly that reason. It’ll be fun to look at them though, try them out, see if any of the loose cards could upgrade my cube or something. I don’t know most of what’s there, but they did mention they used to play mono blue tron in modern.
DVDs are better than vinyl and other older mediums
As a collector of both DVDs and vinyl records, I’m kind of confused by how DVDs are “better” when it’s an entirely separate medium?
Kookaburra photos.
They are adorable, you should definitely share those!
I saw a woman outside in the giant snow storm we had last weekend in flip flops and a sleeveless sundress.
That was a Floridian that got loose. Sorry!
I recently went to the west coast and they call half a inch of snow a “snow storm” and shutdown the entire city.
I sincerely hope your snow storm is more exciting than this.
Like 30 cm! It’s still there too. Many cars still stuck in the street parking spots. And it is colder than a witch’s tit.
That is indeed exciting, except I don’t know how cold is a witch’s tit :)
The great molasses flood of 1919. Killed 21 people and the streets of Boston smelled of molasses for years after, yet it’s never taught in our history books.
🤦🏾♀️ oh wow. My phone decided to make multiple comments while in my pocket. Sorry about that.
Since I now feel obligated to actually comment here’s a pic of a dog I saw recently. I just happened to turn when I saw the cutie staring back at me :) I got a good laugh out of it. So that was nice.
Haha, that makes more sense.
That’s a great picture, absolutely adorable!
Having finished graduate school in September, I will be starting my new job soon and pitching in (voluntarily) at the workplace until then is a refreshing change. It’s nice having something to do.

I got engaged to an amazing, clever, beautiful, caring, and supportive person and I’m so excited about it.
That’s awesome! Wishing you both the best!
Congratulations! That’s super exciting! Wishing the best for you both
