I miss promotions... :)

My current job winds up being "well paid, but no upward mobility". Consistancy of work is more important than anything (I'm a contractor). Actually kind of like Rod's line of work, where I only work as much as there is demand. Luckily, the company i work for loves me and I really like the work.


For everyone who has yet to work or has a job they hate, get a job you like. That is very important. I work out of my house and make a ton of money (when i am not having hea dbutting contests with clients who dont want to pay...), and i never even went to college. But I love programming.

PLus, I have time to write :)

Good job Chrono you totally deserve it.

I played Poker yesterday in a tournament and got beat by a bad beat. :(

I flopped the nuts Flush with a Jack and Seven of Diamonds and there were two others in the hand and I didn't think anyone else would have two diamonds either especially not ones that could beat me. Someone raised, the other guy reraised and then I went all in they both called. One guy was bluffing with two pair and then the other dude had the Queen and Ace of Diamonds and I was dominated.

i must be the only guy here who would hate that job.

i'd rather rub salt in my eyes than play poker for any more than 10 minutes a year.

Oooo... That IS a bad beat.

Thanks for the congrats, guys!

And, Urge, I never really understood/enjoyed poker either, but as part of this job I've read and studied a lot of the different strategies and when it comes down to it, a lot of it is nerdy statistics and I actually find it pretty interesting.
