2 girls jump me like double dutches

Kiel 10-18-2007 10:14 AM

today's my 3 year anniversary working here. in that time i've changed locations and nearly doubled my salary. if that keeps up, in 10 years, i should be making like fifty zillion dollars and working on the moon.

Snoozie 10-18-2007 10:17 AM

My job sucks. Im coming up on 2 years in a few days and have only had one raise (a big one but still) and I probably wont get another one unless I beg. sigh....

CHAOS 10-18-2007 10:19 AM

Z3R0 10-18-2007 10:29 AM

I've been working at this phukin place for a year since past july and have gotten 0 raises -_-...I'm tired of making 11 ducks an hour when I know I can make more. But I'm torn between what field to go into...I.T. or Automotive...I know more about IT but its harder to find a job that Isn;t 1.5 hours away -_-.

I got my first job the summer after freshman year, so 15. I was a dishwasher at the Red Rose Inn in Jennersville. I made 5.50 an hour and I hated every single moment of it.

This is the longest I've worked at one company, it's kinda nice; I like being partially vested in pension and 401k and stuff. 5 years is my goal here (minimum) before I start looking elsewhere, cause then I'm 100% vested :mrgreen:

I just now set up my prudential retirement acct. Now all I have to do is get my job...errr jobs to put money in it . My job at acme is so much more entertaining and fun than this desk job...and at acme I get 2 raises a year regardless.

When every F-body- COMBINED- is outsold 3:1- by the V6 MUSTANG- what in God's name do you see in that thing that says, "Yes, that's a sound investment".

And if I were to do a Subaru rant, i'd surely post it here, and upset half the people. This fascination with putting your house on mortgage and swapping an engine that raises your bhp by 30 is the silliest thing i've ever seen. If you bought the rubbish car with the rubbish motor, why don't you just buy the good one the next time you decide to change the world with your financial brilliance?

Talking trash on every car I have ever owned. :(

I used to work at Acme a long time ago. Ugh. That sucked.

EVERYBODY in here who has the ability to set up a 401k SHOULD. Seriously. Even you who make 8 dollars an hour. SET UP YOUR 401k AND START MAKING CONTRIBUTIONS TO IT NOW.

Otherwise I'll have nobody to go yachting with me when I retire :cry:

CHAOS 10-18-2007 10:39 AM

My job's retirement plan is baller: "To help meet your goals, Mannington Mills has an employer match of $1.00 for every $1.00 you contribute to the plan up to 3% of your eligible pay. Then, they contribute $0.50 of every $1.00 you contribute for the next 2% of your eligible pay.."

Yea, mine does 50% of the first 6% - right now I put in 6% of mine and they give an extra 3% so it's 9% per check total...I've only been doing it for like a year and a half and it's already almost $10k...and the dumb little calculators online say if I keep it up and get a moderate return I should have like ~2 mil or so when I retire :banana:
