I did have one good offer I turned down because the team seemed tired and annoyed, and every single person on the team had either no children or a stay at home wife. The risk was high that they would have no tolerance for flexible schedules or working mom situations. Plus the hiring manager said “[The Company] allows…

I happen to snag an interview to work somewhere where I knew people who had previously worked for or with the CEO, COO, and CFO (kudos to LinkedIn for showing me the contacts we had in common.) Our contacts in common gave all three of them glowing reviews. I do also peaked at glassdoor.com. Lastly, I am not shy about…

The market is good for my line of work. I just kept searching until I found the right culture.

I love that the calculator has a secondary match function for those of us with Safe Harbor plans.

Yet no mention of actual chemistry. Most of what we call dirt is grease or oil which will not come off with just water. This is because oil and grease are non-polar, which means they will not dissolve in the water. The soap molecule has two different ends, one that is hydrophilic (polar head) that binds with water and…

Masks but also eye goggles. That’s a tip I picked up from living in NZ. After a rough earthquake, debris is everywhere and it will get into your eyes.

Can someone please make an oval sticker saying this that I can put on the back of my car?

It says Republicans are trying to increase the minimum wage in my state (Florida.) How accurate is this thing? Or is this just another case of Florida being the most backwards state in the nation?

Dang, I want to hear this story. Where do I buy the book? What’s the title? That sucks but I know the feeling. All my childhood savings was spent on my parent’s divorce. :(

Has anyone noticed that these money articles are sandwiched between “articles” about Amazon one-day sales and deals?

Basements are far and few between here in Florida. :/ Maybe they won’t target us since we already have all the crazies.

It must have some bacteria or something in it. NZ Customs is crazy strict. They would check the bottom of our hiking shoes whenever we came through.

When I lived and worked in New Zealand, I was instructed to bring back twinkies and Reeses cups when I visited home (Florida).

Look, I get why the dealer’s F&I guy comes down so hard on people. F&I has a much higher profit margin than the car sale does itself and those guys get paid from those sales. Hate the game, not the player. But I play my own dodgy game: I decline GAP, Maintenance and Warranty. They magically lower my interest payment…

Shout out to the TSA’s instagram. It makes me laugh every week to see what people tried to smuggle on their carry-ons.

Now would be a good time to write an article on the Four Square method that dealerships use to get you to buy the more expensive car.

I think this is the proper way to ask for the martini I want: Gin, Hendricks if you have it, Tanqueray if you don’t. Wet and dirty. Stirred and straight up..... it just seems like a mouth full to get what I want.

I thought he had a churro.

This is hilarious. All great questions to be asked on ‘How Did This Get Made?’

George W. isn’t just into jogging. He is a runner. I read a funny article where they had interviewed a member of his secret service team that said it was easy to keep up with Clinton but they realized George W was way faster and it was more of a work out to protect him on his runs. It made me laugh.
