I've been traveling for over a month now... make it stop

[s0me0nesmind1]

Boo fucking hoo. I travel for my job 80% of the time. Try traveling on a consistent basis for the sole purpose of... WORK.

I would much rather travel for the purpose of not giving a shit about things. Not having deadlines. Not having 7 AM flights (leaving the house by 4:00 AM is FUCKING FUN YO).

Using OS X is a nightmare. I'm using a Logitech M705 mouse and it's got the weirdest feel using across the screen. I can't make small fast movements with this mouse because OS X's acceleration is all fucked up (and it doesn't let you change it with a non-apple mouse).

I have to get third party tools for every-fucking-thing.

Sometimes you have to tell yourself enough is enough. Do the right thing. Walk into your boss's office and tell him you quit.

It's like you don't even try.

I can't believe I'm providing the answer to you:
type: "defaults write .GlobalPreferences com.apple.mouse.scaling -1" in the terminal, log out and log in. Bam. Done.

Mine isn't quite that bad. I FUCKING HATE it whenever I have to leave on Sunday night or something like that. Grinds my gears when part of my weekend is going to work... Work that I am paid salary for no matter how many hours I give on my weekend 🙄 Luckily, my current company is pretty good with that type of crap and I haven't had to do that in quite some time. It's more based on how big of a PITA the client is.

I usually leave Monday and come back Thursday night. Ends up being ~60-80 hour weeks.

trident can't even use a fucking mac ... and he is surprised he had issues getting a job?

i think my 3 year old nephew can use a mac no problem.

yeah but you also work like 60+ hours a week regularly, which is retarded (unless your own business).

i wouldn't even use a mouse with a desktop mac, i'd just get a magic trackpad for it.

or if you get paid for it. i'd be all for increasing my pay by %50 for a year or two.

 

[SandEagle]

congrats OP! ignore the haters.
spend wisely and have fun. 🙂

For a 75% raise, maybe...50% is 60 hours at straight time, which is BS.

4:00AM? You're doing it wrong. Get TSA pre-check and arrive less than an hour before your flight.

 

[CraKaJaX]

You're doing it wrong.

lol. this was a good laugh this morning.

 

[SSSnail]

So, what's everyone up to today?

 

[pcslookout]

That was stupid.

I trapped you by letting you download those Game of Thrones episodes.

 

[waffleironhead]

I still cant, for the life of me, figure out why he wanted a job in the first place.

 

[MongGrel]

This is still a thing ?

shens, pcs too dumb to work at google

I was right about that whole not having time or energy for the job search while having a job thing btw.

I'm drained and have too little time to do a job search. Also, because I am working... I can't really find any time during the day to schedule interviews.

He didn't receive enough in food stamps to keep up his supply of fruit loops.

Then quit. You'll never better yourself by working.
