My cousin was on it and drinking the night he wrecked and killed a girl who was a nurse. He was goin 100+ when he went onto the other side of the road and hit her head on, killing her. Hes facing 20 years in prison AT BEST. Hes home right now with an ankle monitor on and can only go to his home, his lawyers office, or my uncles shop and only if my aunt or uncle are with him. Things like that are what drive me to steer clear of it. Of course alcohol had a part to play too but honestly Id rather not risk it. Dont know how Id act on cocaine and dont want to know.

Sounds like meth to me or some other type of speed.

No it was cocaine. Thats what popped up when they tested him and he admitted to it. But hes been wild for most his life. Kept getting in trouble but my uncle would get him out of it. My uncle might not look it but hes pretty loaded so hes dropped a lot of cash keeping him out of jail. Nothing he can do now. He did get get his sentence down to 20 years.

One of my good friends was all geeked up and rolled his car speeding away from the cops. Has permanent loss of memory.

One of my dads friends in law school was ex special forces in nam. Went to law school on the GI bill.

 

Got coked up to celebrate passing the bar exam and ended up throwing a cop through a McDonalds window.

 

Amazingly, back in the 70s, that didnt get him disbarred.

Sounds like the fast track to partnership.

Dude still has his Generals pay coming in from his reserve job. Plus Benes.

 

Doesn't suck.

 

Plus, those guys were shady from the jump. Not surprised.

 

Mung will thrive as they fail.

When one of yall's pet dies or gets divorced, or your relative dies.... I don't care. I'm a heartless a-hole and have no compassion. It's in my DNA.

 

However, this actually bothers me. Mung is a Geek in good standing and work is important.

 

 

I'm rooting for ya Mung. Keep us updated.

Financially the company is in bad shape, I was in regular discussions with the owner about layoffs, didnt think she meant me too. Director level guys were whacked and the pricing manager (which I didnt see coming).

 

Ive already put feelers out and will wait and see on Tuesday. What sucks is for one guy they hired him out of Atlanta and moved him here to Houston. He was hired in October. Thats a shitty situation.

Damn, its just really slow out there right now, I dont know where this great economy is, even most of my friends companies are laying people off.

 

Had a recruiter today offer this advice, remove the MBA from your resume. WTF?

First off, strike is fully employed so you. You must be wrong about that.

 

Second, get similar advice. Remove the Director for my title.

 

 

Fantastic. Now I have to prove that I'm dumb enough to work with millennials.

i think this is is your problem ...

 

Sales, but I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.
