| Topic | Had my first ever second date. It was interesting to say the least! |
| BlazinBlue88 11/10/17 10:48:28 AM #24 | Mr_Biscuit posted... That sounds promising, dude. I was a little unsure about Ill have to check my schedule but thats definitely overruled by her giving you a kiss back. My thoughts exactly. If she's as traditional as she sounds, you'll just have to relax and contain that excitement. That excitement is what's getting you into trouble. haha Good work TC. --- |

| Topic | If a company says after an interview that they'll get back early next week |
| BlazinBlue88 11/10/17 9:00:57 AM #3 | Yes and no. You should be applying constantly and not just waiting to hear back from one place. I've had places say that to me and not hear anything back for another week or so. Hiring people is almost never a high priority thing and it's having to get done through both HR and the supervisor. Those two sets of people get sick, get busy, take vacation, etc. --- |
| Topic | Why is all the crypto crashing right now??? |
| BlazinBlue88 11/10/17 8:55:59 AM #3 | There was a huge pump into BTC before the fork, there was a huge pump into alts after the fork. Things are just correcting like they are suppose. If you bought on the pump when BTC was over $7k then lol. BTC will get back to $7k and higher naturally a few months from now. Unless you're trying to day trade and flip your coins for a quick profit then don't worry about what the prices are day to day. Just HODL and chill out. --- |
| Topic | Almost 5 months foster-adopting 3 kids. Irresponsible parents piss me off. |
| BlazinBlue88 11/09/17 11:53:30 PM #55 | Love seeing your adoption update topics pop up Zanzenburger. Glad to hear everything is going so well. Where are you getting your parenting ideas from? The walking in lines, strict morning bedroom routines, etc. Has becoming a parent affected you or your wife's jobs negatively? --- |

| Topic | I thought bitcoin was supposed to explode after the fork got suspended. |
| BlazinBlue88 11/09/17 10:57:48 AM #32 | SuperMariano3 posted... CircleOfManias posted...Alts were supposed to explode. They did. It is directly related. People sold all their altcoins to put into BTC for the upcoming fork. This made altcions decrease and BTC explode. Now that the fork is suspended, people sold off their BTC for a profit and put it all back into their altcoins. The made BTC go down and a ton of altcoins go up. A segment of the community didn't follow trend and doubled down on their altcoins when they nosedived. Now many are at all time highs and some of us made a very nice profit. --- |
| Topic | Anyone else get imposter syndrome? |
| BlazinBlue88 11/09/17 10:11:57 AM #25 | Yup. Doesn't help that every new job I get is a step up in my career so I'm always out of my comfort zone. --- |
| Topic | I lost my wallet after I literally just got paid |
| BlazinBlue88 11/09/17 8:09:49 AM #19 | ZombiePelican posted... You can do that? Yeah depending on your bank. If you bank has an app they probably offer it. I do it for Bank of America whenever someone gives me a check. The app has you take a picture of the front and back of the check, type in the dollar amount, and that's it. It'll be in your account within a day or so. I literally never have to go to the bank anymore. --- |

| Topic | What should one's work commute look like in terms of length? |
| BlazinBlue88 11/08/17 7:30:19 PM #6 | I've always had a 1 hour, 1 way limit. Ton of people in my area(Richmond) work in DC so they're driving 2 hours or more just to get to the office everyday. It's all about what you're willing to drive everyday. Since the position is a software engineer, do you have any work from home opportunities? You'd be able to do all of your job from your laptop right? I'd deal with the 90 min commute if the meant I only had to go into the office 1-2 days a week. --- |
| Topic | How do you pass the time at work? |
| BlazinBlue88 11/08/17 11:54:49 AM #11 | When I get bored I leave and just go work from home. Then just youtube, nap, play with my dogs, etc. Fridays are Work From Home Fridays w/ special guests, wine and peanut butter cups! --- |

| Topic | San Andreas >>> GTA V |
| BlazinBlue88 11/08/17 11:46:56 AM #13 | 3khc posted... How come vice city and san andreas weren't numbered? GTA does this thing where if it's built on the same engine as a numbered entry, it doesn't get a number. GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas are all built on the same engine. Same with GTA 1 and it's London entries. Same with GTA 4 and it's "expansion packs" --- |

| Topic | Is it possible to text/call from a number that's not yours? |
| BlazinBlue88 11/07/17 11:39:40 PM #28 | KogaSteelfang posted... Doesn't feel like I'd have my head held high by rolling over and taking it, then running off with my tail between my legs. Its all how you view it. You view it as running away, I view it as, "Lol yall dumb, dis job dumb, bye guys." Had a similar thing at an older job. People didn't pull me into drama thankfully but there was a lot of dumb us vs them between departments and people gossiping. It was a shit job so I found a better job. --- |

You'll win by not feeding into their drama and walking away with your head held high. Even if you showed all this evidence, there's no guarantee that your supervisor will magically see the truth. Denial is a powerful thing. --- |

| Topic | Is it possible to text/call from a number that's not yours? |
| BlazinBlue88 11/07/17 10:50:35 PM #20 | KogaSteelfang posted... I just don't want to give them what they want without exposing the stuff they've been doing. This is not good thinking. There's no HR so there's no one to expose this stuff to, Virginia is an at will state so they can fire you without reason, the job is horrible so you need to focus on getting a better job. Who cares if that's giving them what they want. --- |

| Topic | I really like Banjo Tooie, but man the levels just aren't as good as Kazooie's |
| BlazinBlue88 11/07/17 10:22:41 AM #2 | I've always had this same issue with Tooie. I never got around to completing it because I would always get to turned around and couldn't figure out some of the puzzles. As terrible as this is to say, I feel like Tooie had a worse level design than DK64. Yeah, I had problems with DK64 but it was still bearable compared to Tooie. --- |

| Topic | Quick query on IPv6 \ IPv4 and external IP addresses. |
| BlazinBlue88 11/06/17 8:41:22 AM #8 | Izual_Reborn posted... Ok. Most sites and companies for that matter don't give two shits about IPv6. Its easy to memorize and work with v4 addresses. Nearly impossible with v6. Until we literally run out of v4 addresses and are forced to use v6, no one will. --- |
| Topic | Quick query on IPv6 \ IPv4 and external IP addresses. |
| BlazinBlue88 11/06/17 7:28:12 AM #2 | Your ISP has assigned you both a IPv4 and IPv6 address. Your computer is currently using the IPv4 address either because the OS defaults to it or whatever so that's the one that works. Just a very layman explanation. Networking is my weakest area. --- |

Too bad the only industry there is the food service or retail industry.

| Topic | Working professionally is such bullshit |
| BlazinBlue88 11/03/17 2:20:24 PM #36 | @Romulox28 There's no such thing as moving straight up a career ladder anymore. It's all about zig zagging. I've spent 9 years in IT. My first 4 years at my first job getting a 2% raise every year. I've had 3 jobs since then. Jumping ship every 1-2 years. When I do, it's always to a more senior position and an additional $10k-$20k salary bump. I love starting from the beginning at a new company. Gives me a chance to learn a new environment, new ways of doing things, and new skills for me to add to my repertoire. The short of it....you don't gain experience by working the same job for years on end. Experience different work environments with different thought processes. --- |
