I used to enjoy figuring out how places generating these codes back in high school. I mean you can always just take the survey, but if you dont want to... SUBWAY Review score-store number-0-month day -hour minute Example: 10-58421-0-0502-0631 Use military time if ordered from a military Base.

blu 06/02/20 8:03:37 PM #63 | Addressing the myths: 2. Cats are not completely domesticated and love the outdoors, fresh air and sunshine of their natural environment. Many indoor cats get just as much enjoyment from sitting on a windowsill, smelling the breeze and chattering at the birds. In fact, one study shows that cats use windows and sunlight less than many owners expect. However, there are ways to give your cat outdoor time while minimizing the associated risks. A screened in porch or an outdoor cat enclosure can allow your cat to feel like he is outside, without exposing him to the dangers listed above. Enclosures can be homemade or bought from specialized cat enclosure companies. If an enclosure isnt your style, you can train your cat to walk with a harness. It takes a little time and effort, but it is quite possible. Talk to your veterinarian for tips on how to do this in a way that will be enjoyable for both you and your cat. |

Then you won't have to worry so much about money That's the goal, to not get paid at all in a decade. robrobd posted... It sort of depends what kind of area you're moving from, and where you'd be moving to. I'm guessing Auckland for the latter? Just sort of checking out my options. I was talking to someone in my profession who lives down in NZ and he mentioned it. It's medical so I'm guessing anywhere there's a decent number of people I could potentially find a job if hiring. I'm just slowly losing my mind. |

blu 05/31/20 8:57:53 PM #20 | Zeus posted... So a 5-hour work day? Oo I think theres enough inefficiencies in both the workday and training that would allow more work to get done and more people to enter...at the cost of high salaries. There could even still be some professions that keep the their 60h a week roles. Id like to see modern education go away and get back into a more classical education for degrees and apprenticeships for jobs. I know Im only paid well because we have a few hundred new graduate degrees given a year and artificially limit the field to about 100 new people a year. |

Topic | My cat jumped off the 4th floor balcony earlier today... |
blu 05/31/20 2:23:26 PM #18 | He likes dogs. He either ignores them or runs up to them when hes off-leash. I do get a bit worried so I put him on leash if anything bigger is around or pick him up if theyll get close, but hes made friends. Hasnt been scared of them. Cars/trains driving by he doesnt like, but we stay away from them. He slumps down and walks away or to a nearby bench when off-leash if its super loud and similar on-leash. He doesnt run quickly and hide so I just keep up with wherever hes going. He wants to be on the ground when a car is nearby. |

blu 05/31/20 2:00:39 PM #16 | DDirtyDastard posted... I'm going to be nice about this because I don't know if you are intentionally missing the point or are victim to the 21st century school system. Cats are independent by nature. They are perfectly capable of roaming around off-leash and taking care of themselves without supervision. You've probably babied it out of its instinctual nature by now, so it'll never get to live the life of a normal cat. blu posted... we'll let him off-leash at the park too and he does fine. |

blu 05/31/20 1:45:37 PM #14 | DDirtyDastard posted... Quit torturing your pet and let the cat be a cat. What? He loves going outside. Still has his claws. Had caps on him for a bit but decided against it. wwinterj25 posted... Edit: I doubt having a cat on a lead is healthy for said cat too. Not sure why but I can look into it. He loves his walks. I think he'd like being on a leash outside better than us locking him indoors and begging at the door to come out with us. Not going to leave him out there alone for hours or anything. |

The police horse are kept in the park and no officers have mentioned it. Theres also about 10 strays in the park on the side we dont go on. wwinterj25 posted... 1. You shouldn't have animals like cats in apartments for this reason. Hed probably appreciate a house, he runs top speed around the apartment and has fun though we have a room thats about 30 ft long and he has a few paths to jump around. Yeah, he leads me around. |

blu 05/31/20 11:52:54 AM #1 | he seems fine. Friend is a vet and she says he looks fine from videos and little tests. He wanted to walk up the stairs back to the apartment himself, and doesn't seem to be favoring any specific foot. Still eating and drinking. He seemed a little dazed at first, probably just the adrenaline wearing off. Yeah :/ he'll be leashed out there or we'll get some netting. He's quite the adventurous kitty, he's pretty well leashed trained and he'll walk with me and we'll let him off-leash at the park too and he does fine. Sometimes he'll want to climb a tree but I limit him to the smaller ones or bigger ones only as far as a leash/harness will go. |

blu 05/30/20 8:42:43 AM #5 | sodium-chloride posted... You seem really obsessed with money More with freedom and what people find fulfilling, which is strongly related to time, which is strongly related money until you have 1-2 million. Its an easy misconception though. You missed out all the time-optimization topics when I had more of that and less money. This is more personal finance anyway...and everyone should know about what they have offered to them. |
Topic | Finally figured out how the hospital execs here get so much in retirement... |
blu 05/30/20 8:12:52 AM #1 | noticed on public reported comp a couple had like 133k in tax advantaged accounts a year and I was like wtf Im thinking theyre offered a 401a that normal employees arent...they must be. Thats about 60k the hospital puts in and they get a 457b they can put about 20k into a 403b they can put about 20k into...meaning the hospital puts in about 40k to get to 133k annually in tax advantaged accounts...I also cant believe only like 20% of them even are saving for retirement in tax advantaged accounted. Otherwise idk how theyd get to 133k |

Even if living expenses were 50k which is quite a bit, you could buy like two escorts a week for about 50k and then still have a few dozen 'k' left over. |

Still debating on taking 200k kinda dull, good hours, little vacation, meh city or academic 130k lots of freedom, okay hours, more interesting, good city. |
