Do you win or do you lose? Now you work full time until you die. Go tour europe for a year and then marry someone really rich. Then you *really* win :-P

But congrats really :) I wish I could have graduated but I messed it up.

merh, I graduated high school 4 months before the rest of my class and have had my full time job since February 2006. I didn't go away to school, I got my associates in business management through night classes over the past 4 years while I saved more money than I ever could have imagined, advanced at work, enhanced my skills and knowledge of risk analysis in the Mortgage Banking world during an incredible downturn in our economy as well as a terrible time for my company itself.

No, I didn't backpack through any amazing region or country, but I've experienced some fantastic things over the past few years, met and got to know some of the most wonderful friends I could ever ask for, fell in love, and now I get to start another new chapter of life with the people who really matter (and i have more free time than I've had in I can't remember how long!).

Call it what you will, but I'd say I'm one of the lucky ones, and to me, that means I win :)

Probably. I just feel a little overwhelmed as of late. I'm into 11 years of uninterrupted full time work though. It takes some time to get where I'm at mentally.

accordguy04 12-21-2011 09:38 AM

**** the real world... anyone have any connections for a job for someone with a finance degree that DOESN'T involve sales? I hate my job, it's too far of a commute and not enough monies... I was probably bringing home more working at advance auto than the bank I work at now... ironic right?

grimm 12-21-2011 02:38 PM

no vacation carry over for us this year, so i got one week left to take off, and i will be :)

accordguy04 12-21-2011 02:57 PM

We can only carry over up to 5 days, but they go into a sick bank that doesn't get touched unless your out more than 3 days. But I have until April to use my remaining pto days.

In other news, I just made a "the section quartet" channel on Pandora and it... well it's just good. :)

How is that Star Wars game? what are you playing it on? I think the bf bought it for PS3 along with some others for my dad for Christmas. Just curious to hear some opinions on it...

jpalamar 12-22-2011 03:02 PM

Can't wait for the day to end. Boss decided to micro manage things and instead of actually letting me get work done I'm being grilled about every detail about everything that doesn't matter.

grimm 12-22-2011 04:07 PM

jpalamar 12-22-2011 04:57 PM

accordguy04 12-22-2011 05:11 PM
