Happy Independence Day

Got laid off yesterday after 10 months. The company lost the entire project so that is a few hundred pink slips. The company is paying two months severance and will pay out any unused vacation time which for me was over 50 hours. I actually can’t look for another job as they would then terminate the pay out as we are all technically on leave of absence so essentially I will get paid for two months to be a bum. Maybe I should take this time to figure out what to do with the rest of my life or just drink myself to death.

That makes me appreciate being stuck at work all day today.

You're at a weird crossroads where you're in your 40s and you haven't done anything with your life, so there's not a lot of good advice anyone can give you....getting a healthcare certificate from a CC is probably your best bet other than applying for a trade apprenticeship

Still more dignity and compensation than fixing trails.
Best of luck.
If you need references or a loan, let me know.

Replace 40s with:
late 20s (hopefully)
or
early 30w (pathetically)

and we more or less have Meatgrease.

The same offer of kindness applies to you as well, but with CW it's an act of friendship.

With you it's an act of pity, you fucking failure.

I saw some one at the grocery store wearing a literal helmet. Like an actual retard in a jofa helmet. The circle of life

You're close to being too old too be this much of a fag.

Unhappy belated birthday, you stupid, ugly, worthless shitbird.

You no doubt put Riley's cock in the top three slots of your birthday wish list.

Feeling nostalgic. I’m listening to the Riphead/Drogheda split that I traded with Dan behaving Badly for my copy of “celebrating 5 years of violence” because he didn’t have his own copy. I think I’m going to drink in the park while reading The Rules Of Attraction. It’s my first Brett Easton Ellis book. I don’t really get appeal, maybe someone can explain the lure. I really hate all the characters and hope they all fall into an industrial meatgrinder but maybe that’s the point. I hope I get arrested for public drunkenness and maybe some lady cop will shove her nightstick up my ass.

The milf from down the street is always real smiley and flirty. I think she remembers me when I was in a shitty cover band with 50 year old pot/coke heads. The guitar player was really good but a total fuck up and still works as a day laborer when he’s almost 50 even though he knows how to do custom tile setting but he wastes what little money he had smoking weed every day.

It’s awkward when she is smiling flirty in her soccer mom skimpy clothing while playing basketball with her teenage son who is 6’4”

It would be full pay except I won’t be able to earn the perfect attendance bonus that I would always get. I’ve jerked off three times in the last 2 days, I guess I’m already bored as shit.

I’m living on easy street. I’ve got it all baby. The American Dream.
