2 months in. When I was getting pulled over, I was literally seconds away from Harbour Center where I was to co-host an event and give a presentation. I'm happy to report that leaving my job was the right call and despite how exhausting it was to network for hours, I feel like I'm getting my spark back - something I couldn't have thought you could get back. Like that was it, you reach 30 and then you get a different "spark" or smt. Hence the start of the thread to get the perspective of those who have lived past their 30s.

I wasn't ready for this pres at all. Someone had this great idea to use AI to summarize a 60 page report.. it was dogshit. I was going to copy it over to our branded template, but it's kinda poorly formatted so I gave up on that. In hindsight, I should have just done it from scratch. I did a quick readover of parts of the study to just get some speakers notes in there hoping that I could just reference it. Unfortunately the room was not set up like that so it would've been bad if I kept looking over at the laptop.

I asked one of my colleagues to present with me, since he's the true industry expert, I'm only two months in and my mind is still on tariffs and fashion industry. A couple of hiccups but surprisingly pres to industry is a lot easier than pres at uni. Thankfully, it was only a 13 minute slot. I had wanted to do a few practice runs but my visit from the VPD put a nail in that idea. Afterwards, like most networking events, it was exhausting. Non-stop chatting for like hours. There was food available, but I didn't have to stomach to eat before or after.

I'm rambling again but what I find interesting is that my colleague, and previous business partner kept dragging me out and I never wanted to go or felt like I had a right to be there tbh. But I'm happy to say that it's the right environment for me.

Tho interestingly, despite how exhausting networking was, I still managed to have a long dinner conversation about politics, immigration, family and gov talk. Anyway crazy ass week, launching events, projects and doing something impactful for the first time in awhile. Currently smoking this weed (i don't pay for it) that says "creative, energizing, focus" because I feel like I've earned it for the first time in awhile - also picked up two new accounting clients. I think I'm "on" all the time that I need this "escape" to allow myself to feel and be introspective. Still gonna need to learn self control with it to be productive but I think I'm in a good place.

Is this you? Lol

Good God!

That's almost $42K in credit card debt! :fulloffuck: How is that even possible?!?!?!?!

As funny as it sounds, no, I don't think that's BIC_BAWS, but I can see the relation lol
But if that were him, I'm pretty sure Badhobz would punch him in the nuts and call him a fag while recording it and posting it on YouTube

Nah, that guy owns a M240i, lol

Bic baws is a financial saint compared to that guy lmao

Money is completely made up

Experience in life is everything

If I made that much money after tax.. I wouldn't feel poor LOL

I saw his replies and he mentioned he only has one addiction, which were track days and instantly thought of you lol

6.99% on auto loan... Could not be me at all LOL. Also I spend $80 a YEAR on haircuts lol.

This man is somehow more hooped than I am and he makes significantly more wtf

The relief of not carrying consumer debt is insane tho. Either that or it's cause I left my crappy job, which btw keeps sending me emails at 12am LOL

The next morning he called and since I have him blocked - it went straight to VM - "I know you're mad at me or angry with me or smt, but could you out of the kindness of your heart walk me through the CARM stuff?"

I like and took EvoFire's advice to this. There's no way I'll completely stop tracking, so set limits. 2-3 track days max; Set an admission limit (Mission days are $180/day now; VIMC can be had for sub $280); Pick one track for the year and stick to it instead of trying to do it all.

Jesus, what kind of driving record does the guy have?

Damn, that’s a crazy ex you got there lol

the small courier font and center alignment take this to a whooollle new level of crazy

Hahaha is that your former employer?

It reads like an AI learning how to deal with a broken heart

It's a haiku of sadness.

They emailed you with the title Karma? Do they even understand what Karma means?

The way he puts a space before periods and commas... That dude is insane, I would watch my back

Like westopher, I read it as some kind of sick poetry (not the good kind.) But now that you mention it, it's straight up psychotic. :inoutugh:

Dude should just pay a broker to do all his CARM stuff


That dude is crazy though

Idea: Given how bat shit desperate (and crazy!) his former employer is, could BIC_BAWS just become a CARM consultant/specialist and strike up his own brokerage with a team to manage different customers? And no, he cannot bring on his not his former employer as a client!

I wanna do some kind of shipping consultancy.. but I don't want anything to do with CARM.. garbage ass gov tech..

One of those "I work in import/export" guys, similar to Vandalay Industries, eh? :suspicious:

I got another one LMFAO

You should put these fucking losers on blast. This is outright harassment and if the person that's sending this is simply management and not the owner of the company they need to be fired.

:fulloffuck:

I told you!
