    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I go by a similarly mysterious building, massive warehouse, huge office spaces and there are two of each. The building just says TURBO in huge letters and has a picture of a compressor wheel. No idea what happens there but it must be 90% automated.

    Gotcha gotcha you have to be able to step back and see the big picture. Things can suffer for it at first, but the payoffs will be huge. But yeah you'll be good, that's the type of employee that businesses love to find. You'll be able to work where you want

    Do it. Quit your other job and do that only. Any manager who says that is a good manager.

    I don’t think it’ll be too bad, I waited till after the majority of the holidays to start looking, not as many sales.

    No, it is poverty line. The San Francisco Low Income threshold is $117,000 of gross annual income.

    Eh, I wouldnt do 2 jobs but thats me. Sportsmans warehouse closes at like 8 around here so I would do that and forget about getting up at 4 to clean urinals or whatever you do in the morning.

    Kinda need both of them though is the thing, if it goes decent I might try and go to ups and sort mail in the morning instead of cleaning.

    Do what you gotta do, you and Bartyboi are leaps and bounds ahead of your peers who might not even have a job until they graduate college :)

    When I was in D.C. for the Inauguration a few years ago with my school, what struck me the most was how many Verizon white box trucks I saw parked or driving around.

    You have to think some of those Verizon vans were Secret Service surveillance vans or something.
