I'm excited there is a big VC population in Seattle! I've only been here a few weeks but I recommend going to Molly Moon. It.is.amazing . http://www.mollymoon.com/flavors why type of role are you applying for? I hear Amazon is pretty cool to work at. I've only managed to visit one of their buildings here but it was really nice inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only managed to visit one of their buildings here but it was really nice inside. I loved it when I visited last year - been trying to make a move since haha. And yes! VC NW is the best! Brand Specialist - sounds a lot like marketing I believe? I'm really not 100% - but my cousin works there and loves it. She got the chance to meet Aaron Paul and I will be forever jealous. Much yum to the ice cream - I can dig it! If you are interested, The Highline in Capitol Hill has some awesome vegan dishes, and solid music choices.

I don't really know too much about that role but I'm sure the interview will go well! keep us updated. It would be cool to have another VC friend in the area. Thanks for the recommendation. I'm eagerly waiting for my first paycheck so I can really enjoy Seattle. =) chkadea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Butcha Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 I need to come up to Seattle and visit you guys soon. Maybe this summer. Or once a show I want to go to is going to be up there. tarzioo_ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecayToDeath Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 My family is moving to Seattle this summer (my mom and brother) but that's one month before I go to college so I wouldn't be there long anyway. chkadea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas³ Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Ugh, doctor put me on new meds for anxiety and I feel terrible. I'm a walking panic attack 24/7. It's not fun. Fumbled through work yesterday, and am today too. Hopefully these pills do what they are supposed to soon. No clue why it came back so bad so quickly. Good luck on the Amazon job Dea!

Feel better T! You seem to get the short end of the stick a lot - I know with meds like that, they tend to take a while for your body to adjust, don't they? Hoping it's sooner rather than later. And thank you! Hopefully we both are able to make it out there for better avenues haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same meds I was on before, it's just been about 6 months and now the dosage is different. Amazon seems like a cool place to work, as long as you're not in a warehouse. One day I will make it out there for sure, one day. chkadea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day I will make it out there for sure, one day. Maybe, maybe not. Suffering from the occasional anxiety attack or depression funk, I know a lot of it becomes cyclical - beating yourself up about it isn't necessary. I'll be in a cubicle it looks like if I do score the gig, which, while not a dream, is better than slinging 'za.

Thomas³ Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Yeah, it sucks. I don't get it, but it is what it is. Hey, at least it's a good start. I'm sure it'll open plenty of internal jobs with them in your future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewillisisdead Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 We got our first shipment of Soylent (powder) today. The plan is to use it to replace one meal a day. The way our schedules are makes it really hard to prep lunch, so most of the time we say fuck it and eat out. It works out to about $1.50 a day each, which is way fucking cheaper than even just grabbing fast food. If you've ever made your own bread, it tastes like bread batter. It's really weird but not unpleasant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tastes pretty good (peanut butter + chocolate), but seems expensive, because the Orgain is like $4 a carton for 5 servings :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 We were making green smoothies with protein powder for awhile and still will sometimes, but this is so much faster/easier. That PB2 stuff is dope. I used to get free jars of it from the job I had like 6 years ago. Now I just throw a shit load of actual peanut butter in my smoothies.

Looking at it online, do you just make a pitcher of it? How long does it stay "good"? Nut butters are my life blood. And coffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't like food much, unless it's pizza or burritos, everything else is just sustenance to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nut butters are my life blood. And coffee. Yeah, the subscription actually comes with a free pitcher. I think the pitcher is 5 servings. The powder is good for years I believe, not sure how long it lasts once mixed but probably a fair amount of time. 14 minutes ago, Thomas³ said: Does it keep you full? I'd be all over it if so.

I have hated food and eating for basically my whole life. I've recently started getting through my fucked up eating disorder. Made a fair amount of progress the last year. I was so fucked that I'd never even eaten pizza until maybe a year and a half ago. Now I'd commit murder for a good slice of pizza. It's supposed to make you feel full. I made a serving just to taste it and I'll finish it later instead of snacking later. I'll report back tomorrow when I have it instead of getting 2 slices of amazing pizza for lunch.
