    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    It's actually $30 dollars to play an awesome open-world multiplayer tech demo, that also includes a kick-ass instanced multiplayer dog-fighting deathmatch/TDM/PvE-wave survival mode. I had more fun playing Vanduul Swarm than any game other than X-Com 2 and Overwatch this year. The playable...

    I like how this thread gets its news from unpaid Forbes bloggers and Kotaku, after saying how much they're untrustworthy pieces of shit over in the Gamergate thread.

    Oh, now they want me to work 44 hours a week and pay me for 40, and come into work an extra day a week when I already effectively work every day. Fuck this place. I told them that if they're renegotiating my hours, they can renegotiate my pay, otherwise consider that 2 weeks' notice.

    Also in the perfect posture club on my Dell S2716DG. The IPS sitting next to it... calibrated the same, has really awesome looking orange shades, at the cost of a weird yellowishness to mid-range blue colors. Otherwise identical when facing it head-on.

    I can't wait for this company to not give me the raise they promised in December so I can just fucking quit. I am so over this place. Morale on my team has dropped so low that I'm not even close to being the saltiest cranky cunt on the team, and when I'm not the most miserable person in a room...

    It's very hard to find someone willing to work second shift that's competent at monitoring+servicing the very broad selection of systems we sell contracts for, while also being able to simultaneously handle dispatching techs and subs, working with those techs once they get to site, staging...

    Going to college instead of just staying working IT for the school department full time out of high school. Not going to a better college far away. Letting my parents prevent me from getting a driver's license until I was 26. Not leaving home forever after my mom tried to kill herself. Yeah...

    Getting reqs for new employees requires approval from 4 people up the chain, then the recruiting office has to actually find someone, and the recruiting office's idea of who would make a good employee is very different from what actually makes a good employee. When we do get people, most people...

    Actually, mandatory overtime is legal, as long as they pay you, and you can be fired for not working mandatory overtime.

    That 54k is in addition to the money I made from my fellowship at the university in that time, the money I saved from doing most of the remediation/renovations myself, etc. That's just nearly free money from a hobby business that I spent less than 20 hours a month, frequently much less once I...

    I had 53 inches of water in my basement in 2010. Even with constant pumping it was coming back up to 18 inches for a month and it took 7 weeks before no water was coming up through the basement floor. That's like, having a swimming pool underneath your house for 2 months. FEMA gave us...

    I have plenty of money right now. I don't know what the fuck I'm supposed to do with it. I tried working super hard and making all this money so my mom would drop the crazy bullshit with all the lawsuits.

    I took a day off work and remembered why I work so much. My mom is fucking crazy and is tormenting me all day to draft legal documents for her. Then I do that, and then she starts screaming at me to go run around to all the neighbors asking them to go down to the town hall and sign the...

    The funny thing is, he's super nice and awesome to everyone all the time now that he has his medical MJ card. Also he doesn't live with my bitch of a mother anymore. That probably has a little to do with it.

    He taught me how to fix shit and didn't give me the kind of grief that some parents do over me being gay. But on the flip side, he was really fucked up in a lot of ways. He'd do horrible, sociopathic things to my mother just to make me angry, and vice versa. Like he'd get angry with me about...

    Fucking quotes. It's a lot easier to tell someone how to live their life than it is to actually live it. I don't know what the fuck you want me to do. This is the highest paying job I can find in terms of the maximum amount of money I can make in the shortest amount of time. This is as...
