    Speaking of Discord; been playing a lot of Halo.

    Single player naturally. Playing through all the games again and it's been pretty fun.

    But I've never played it on multiplayer (on PC that is).

    I sucked at it on Xbox; you guys are gonna have to carry me :bananadead:

    Made some fender stays that don't risk chewing the tire to shit.

    Do you guys have to make it known to the company or something? I vaguely remember something in our employee handbook that we'd have to do that if we dated a coworker.

    One of my longest past relationships was with a coworker at a job I had while in school. Made more complicated by the fact that she was the owner's daughter. But it worked for 4ish years.

    Until it didn't and I had to quit to avoid the awkward encounters

    They still hire me for photo jobs every couple years though. Life is a trip.

    It’s VERY well known. It can’t stay a secret for long when she’s the eye candy if the place. Lol

    Like the ability to appear normal sized by comparison?

    @Empty_Lord it's just good to hear you found someone you're excited to be with!

    She must be great company too considering you haven't been using your alter ego for awhile now.

    For when you want to go camping and sleep off the ground but fold up the cot and tent into a compact bag that doesn't take up a lot of room in your rig to carry.

    One of my buddies has been married 5 times. He had a company when I first met him where I worked for him. He had this going all at the same time.

    Ex-Wife #1 was a former Miss Tennessee -- I never saw her.
    Ex-Wife #2 worked for him at his company.
    Ex-Wife #3 worked for him at his company and stayed with ex-wife #2 for a short while they were divorcing because of Live-in Girlfriend #4.
    Live-in #4 worked for him at his company while Ex-Wife #2 and #3 all worked there. They were never married.
    Ex-Wife #4 became an officer in his company and became friends with Ex-Wife #3. Ex-wife #4 and #3 concluded that nobody could live with him.
    Current #5 - the company sold and she didn't work there. She didn't need to work for him because she is a real estate broker.

    He always has some kind of deal going. A fun guy to be around. Never a dull moment.

    Years ago I would have to travel between OKC and Tulsa with a co-worker. We would trade up driving. One day I stopped at a quick mart to get gas on the way and walked back to the car to get something I forgot. I found him going through my glovebox. I will never forget the look of surprise on his face. Then I acted like nothing happened to keep the peace through some intense client meetings where we need to appear to be a team. I have worked with some real creeps over the years.

    Yep I started putting out applications around raise time this year because I didn't get nearly enough to match inflation but exactly enough to bump me up a tax bracket and lower my take-home from what it was. Really looking to make more so I can pay off the house I'm in, get married, etc. and, of course, buy rock sliders and a winch.
