Why doesn't my naming make sense?

It might make sense, but I don't have the time to figure it out.

Kobe's just got easy to figure out shit.

"lil Kobe" being the "junior" of the brood.
"Duece" being the "second" thing.
Then "coal" just basically being "the other one"

 

[basement bias]

I went with using the first letter of their names basically except Dodger but hers references her name. Lil W is because hers starts with W but I couldn't think of anything creative.

Just seen this
Beer Hall Closing Indefinitely - Surly Brewing Co.

I'm guessing they don't see the point once their patio is closed. They'll still be selling beer

Surly should be fine, but there are other tap rooms/restaurants that I worry about. Lost a favorite, but sounds like they were having tax issues prior to covid. (the comment sections online are wonderful)

I bet you enjoyed those Facebook arguments

surly was great for parking and walking to TCF. Saved me some money!

I definitely rob the bank accounts of people too stupid to not figure out how to take care of their kids.

I took *9* NINE calls from people in the last week who couldn’t settle on how to school their kids this year. I do not care even a little about taking their money.

Definitely the job of a lawyer. Must be nice to have that kind of money to piss it away like that. No offense

Their workers are also trying to unionize, so it’s possible this is a labor decision.

Probably doesn't help.

Makes losing 3/4 of a million dollars a little worse

Good point, sure thats a factor

In all honesty, I don’t clear a ton of money every year. The first $120-130k I make goes to overhead. But I also Bill way less than I could because I’m 100% responsible for the kid’s stuff. We decided when I started my firm that Mr. Kobe would be the primary income earner and I would take half the number of cases I otherwise could take on so I could have some flexibility. Can’t have both of us having little to no work flexibility once we had kids.

I wasn't referring to your income moreso the "adults" that need you services to make a school decision.

It sounds like a meal

Almost same. I can carry over up to 20 days to the next calendar year. Got 28 right now. Using 5 for my trip to St Jawn in early December and don't really have anything else planned right now. Guess I'll take the 4 weekdays between Christmas and New Year which will get me down to 19.

I currently have 21.5 days I have to use before the end of the year or lose them. Can carry over 45 days. What can I say, I'm a slave to the game.

I'm at 15 right now. I usually get a free vaca day each month, though, for working 8 hours over the previous month. I've already racked up 5.5 for October.

so, in lieu of paying you overtime, they give you a "day off"

sucker.

 

[Bender]

The master plan is to rejoin IBM at some point and just do the bare minimum until they lay me off... though bare minimum is still a 2 rating there, so the layoff may never happen.

Over one of my multiple forms of weaponry...

You have IEDs in your bean field? So that's how Amy cat went.

The herd of 20 deer out there feasting everyday is a pretty efficient way of taking them down.

Have you thought about putting up a fence to keep them out? I might know someone that can help you out there.

I can't believe what people will spend on attorneys to help them make decisions about their own children/finances.
