Taking a moment to pontificate on a Poor Sporting League Choice:
The details are somewhat murky but it sounds like the NHL is totally walking back stuff like players wearing special jerseys for Pride Night, because a small number of players are shitheads so that means they don’t want people to have nice things:
Every job I’ve ever had has been full of women with incredibly creepy stories. Trucking no different than anything else.
I live in Alaska, have had a CDL for 20 years, haven’t used it in 5 years but it’s always crazy to me the stories of how truckers make so little money in the lower 48. CDL up here is a guaranteed $150K a year if you are willing to work, 70-80K if you just want to work 6 months during construction season and take the other 6 off.
Ainsley update! She’s 1 month old and out of NICU, into the intermediate care nursery. Off the cpap, and learning how to suckle/feed herself. Almost 4 lbs now.
That’s amazing and wonderful. Will you be around her growing up? There’s nothing parents need more than somebody who can occasionally take over for a couple hours. For your side it’s great to see the growth.
My sister and I are both relatively close. They live in the Bay Area, I’m in San Diego and she’s in Vegas (for now).
My sister has more flexibility than I do and she’s already looking for a job up there.
I have a feeling I’ll be putting a lot of miles on the car, though if I can find a decent job working with the state legislature, I could justify splitting time up north.
Not knowing much about this dude, it’s good he gave away the money, but saving a few mil on your own terms isn’t some sort of sacrifice. If he put himself on like a $1200 a month UBI + social security, then I guess I’d be impressed.
