Happy Tuesday

[Guy Incognito]

Ugh.. "Time Share"

I mean, there's some things I don't like, but for the most part, it's worked out for us. There are enough places where we can drive to, and more than enough in FL, where we can stay somewhere for a week for about $250, and have a place to cook most of our meals, so we don't spend a lot of money on meals.

I think my up front was about $3K, and my maintenance is $900 every 2 years. I get 3-4 weeks away at about $1,200/year.

The sales shit is the worst part, but I don't know that we've had to deal with that crap in years.

Guy I work with just told me the company I turned down just gave him an offer and he took it. I didn't have the heart to call him sloppy seconds.

So he’s the Frank Reich of your industry?

I have yet to hear anything good about a time share only horror stories. I will stay way from them for sure

So. Can someone please tell me WHY you put in another ticket when it clearly STATES one has been submitted already and is still in process on being fixed! Also it has been noted on there (by me) it's been escalated as high as it can go

I mean I'll take it as it adds to job security but yikes

If it was, it couldn't have been much at all. He's an older guy, probably 40ish. He may have a few years more experience than me, but he didn't start out as an engineer nor did he go to school for it. Which means he can't become an FE or PE. Plus hearing about the quality of his work...he's not a bad worker...but there's a reason he wasn't the first person they reached out to. My guess is it was the same or slightly more because of his age.

atleast you aren't double-voweling it. Sorta

Just one closing today at the end of the day. Slow down at home so we can get stuff caught up. Hopefully have a month or so break of running to events. Going to start cleaning the garage. Have to adjust bed time & morning alarm to get back on DST schedule. I should have stayed on it when we switched over to ST but didn't.

i had multiple tickets on same issue while back because they weren't responding to the first ticket which they marked as closed and it wasn't closed

I also emailed the are directly and no response.

0 fucks given if my extra ticket made them work, it took them 3 weeks to do something that should've taken a day, and if there was a legit reason it took 3 weeks, they should've updated me

I think it was nat bargatze who did joke where he'd just tell everyone he used to be 350lbs because compared to that, he looked pretty good

This guy looked good at 350 compared to now.

Kirkland Brand Trail Mix. Pretty damn good!

Someone gave me a Kirkland IPA on Saturday and I wasn't sure what to expect. It was actually pretty good.

Kirkland has surprisingly good stuff.

I still like using their golf balls when I find one on the course
