I told Rez I'd send him some stickers a month and a half ago. Im mailing them today. I also just realized I forgot to throw in the super old school CYLS (handmade and on CDR) samplers I dug out for him, but I already left... <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deafening Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Ate leftover cookie brownie from Dominos for breakfast. Cleaned the house. Did laundry. Did the dishes. Cleaned myself and now I'm about to go celebrate a birthday. tarzioo_ and KingTacoMunster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarzioo_ Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 missed my bus stop yesterday and got lost and wandered around. Today has been a lot better. Luckily this place doesn't creep me out like SF. I refused to be out when it was dark. Seattle is pretty awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, have had a few interviews and phone interviews but nothing is really jumping out at me. I think I just want to move too bad, but keep having mental set backs. Had a horrible panic attack, out of no where earlier, felt like I was having a heart attack. I need to get my anxiety, and possibly health back in control before I can move somewhere. I really on my parents and friends too much, for situations like this. Won't be able to do that in a new place for a while. I have not had a linkedin profile since they got hacked, but I probably should set one up again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister gets them pretty bad so I can sort of understand how bad it is. I highly recommend linkedin.. I would go on there and look for companies and then recruiters for the companies and then just blindly message them with my quick pitch about myself. It's a great angle to come at. I think a lot of recruiters like networking on there. A lot of them will send out messages to you. I would recommend adding a lot of people on there. It helps to grow your network. You can add me on there if you want (Taraneh BigBow). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All great ideas too, with nothing to lose really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard Pioneer Square can get pretty shady at night, but I haven't really experienced that. SF has spots are are completely fine and then you'll walk into a really scary part and have to walk pretty fast until you're past it. I also was probably living in a bad part of town, SOMA. I almost got attacked twice. I was walking on market and come guy ran up and grabbed my shoulders and kept saying sorry but wouldn't let go and then suddenly just took off running. Another time I was standing waiting for my friend and I was behind a door with bars and some guy came up and tried grabbing me through the bars and I stepped back and then he just started kicking the door and then left. Really freaky! I tend to get pretty freaked when strangers start talking to me and a lot of that happened in SF. oh and the homeless guy across the street where I lived in SF owned a gun. I'm not sure if I've been to Pioneer Square yet. I went to wherever the place with the first starbucks was and it was pretty cool. found a place that sold apple-pear cider. pretty awesome.

BuzzersonKillwell Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Holy Mountain is awesome. I work in Pioneer Square. It seems like it could get a little weird at night, especially under the highway down by Western. I've seen some crazies running around but it doesn't seem to bad. Some parts of 3rd downtown can get sketch at night I've heard but haven't seen it. What part of the city are you staying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to seattle a few times and keep getting lost but it's been cool so far. Hopefully I don't wander into Pioneer Square at night.

Thomas³ Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Morning everyone. Replaced my sway bar links yesterday, with the help of the my sister's boyfriend (who did most the work, since he's done it a million times), and now my legs are sore. Note to self, don't crouch when working on cars, get a mat to sit or kneel on. Anxiety is still high from the damn panic attack, but it looks to be a nice weather week and weekend, so maybe being outside for a bit will be good on my mood.

It didn't seem that bad, you would be fine down there at night. There are some great bars and restaurants, it just has some vagrants, near as I can tell. I haven't been over to Redmond or anywhere on that side of the lake yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas³ Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Well I got offered the job I interviewed for last week, the PC Deployment one. I might pass though. It sounds less like what I want to do, even though it is hands on with PCs. I'd essentially be setting up computers, then walking people through policies and making sure all the programs they want are there. I'd still work here, but with a different contracting company. I don't want to be a contractor anymore, there is a weird divide between contracting and corporate employees with how we are treated and how we are paid/vacation/etc. We get boned. Plus it's $3/hour less. Need to decide by tomorrow.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas³ Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I'm leaning towards turning it down. I want to move, so it'd look bad to take it and work for a few months then move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
