So I found out over the weekend from my mother in law (she's an accountant) that I can take a big fat lump sum check from my old draw account, instead of say a monthly check each month every month for a year or 2 years and it still won't bump us into the next tax bracket.

Another bonus, it's 1099'd so I don't even pay taxes on it up front. So I'll just take the 25-28% of it put into an interest bearing account, use the rest to pay off all the debt and stash the rest.

Wheeee

If you had anxiety issues that were serious enough that they affected you day to day, like made it hard to get through a day at work. Would you tell your boss about it? Trying to decide if I should or not. Obviously it's not going to change anything in the short run but it would help perhaps explain a few things. For example if I suddenly need some time off or it would explain less than stellar performance or seeming generally more standoffish. Or would you not say anything. I'd like to tell my boss but not sure if it would be good or not.

I wouldn't say anything honestly.

Depends how badly it will affect your work and your relationship with your boss.

It's none of his business.

I don't know the details of Canadian employment and medical legality. All I know is the first rule of Canada: avoid polar bears.

It's bad enough for me personally that I have to fight to quit. There are periods every day where I feel I'm going to quit. However I'm good at hiding it so I don't think it's that obvious. It's just that for me personally it's the 800 pound gorilla in the room not being mentioned.

Is it something to do with at work thats ever present or just a particular current project that will eventually be over?

Peyton will become the new GM, coach, and QB. He'll be throwing to Peyton, who will also handle the rushing duties, plus serve as the O-line.

Additionally, Peyton will replace Vinatieri and the punter for all kicking duties.

Then he'll clone himself further, and create a defense staffed by robotic laser arms.

Ever present. I have social anxiety. Something I'm working through but will take years to really work out.

Over 13 games, Alabama allowed 183 yards/game, and 8.15 points/game.


Over 16 games, New England allowed 411 yards/game, and 21.4 points/game.

By a mere half a yard, a better yardage defense than the Packers, thus the second worst in the league. The points/game is middle of the pack, which is a surprising figure.

I know the NFL competition is stiffer, but I can't help thinking the entire defensive unit from Alabama might prove better, transplanted en masse, than the unit for the Patriots.
