Best to try to move on / forget. neutral

That is an awesome BG your avi has.

Thank you, it is the Ghoul's Acre. Wanted a new look for my avi. It seemed appropriate.

Your avi seems to have a Castlevania vibe.

I prefer 'dark' avi's . . . and this was another rendition using items I don't typically have/use. Since pilfering both my mule accounts, this one has more options.

All right, that makes sense. I, too, prefer dark avatars.

I've noticed, my friend. You do tend to stick to a lot of black, though the petals are a nice touch on your current art.

Arigato. They are the Monty Oum tribute item, and were originally equipped for him, but I just like what they add.

Hard to believe summer is almost over... Now if only the weather would realize that.

The weather has not been too oppressive here . . . muggy and warm, but not miserably so. Right now, I just wish money was coming in. Tips have been abysmal lately. With the new costs of going on monthly visits to visit my brother and game, the money is needed now more than ever. Perhaps it is good that TF toys just are not populating here. I know we are at least two waves late, with the legends class ($10) seemingly not coming here at all.

I can handle heat, humidity not so much, and CT seems to always become humid when it gets hot...

I'm sorry tips haven't been going well; I know that is a significant boost in such jobs.

A third or more of my income is in tips, so when they suck, my family suffers. It is highly aggrivating when you do all you can and all but grovel to assholes, and they can't be bothered to give a few cents your way.

That percentage is really high. Tip-based jobs are really problematic. They may have worked once upon a time, but they just don't cut it anymore. Hopefully they improve soon.
PostPosted: Thu Aug 20, 2015 8:00 pm


The issue is layered, as well. Most of my shifts are daytime shifts, so there is no real supper rush to bolster tips. I make $6 an hour, with $1.50 for every delivery and whatever tips I am given. If there are less than one run per hour, I make less than minimum wage. That said, there are times when I make an absurd amount of money. It is all highly variable. The past two days have been back to something like normal. about a 7 hour day and going home with $30 in my pocket. that I can live with.

Still, money is very bad here right now. My wife is highly upset she may have to cancel our anniversary plans because while the hotel and such is paid for, we need enough money to drive up to the locale and money to eat off of while we are there for an extended weekend.

Ah, I see, so you're not working during the busy times. I am glad tips have returned to normal levels again.

That's rough. Hopefully some good tips days will arise to help alleviate that.

The income varies wildly, unfortunately. Some days are good, others not so much. I cut a few hours this week because if I am to make no money and sit around, then I might as well do it at home where I am comfortable.

Yeah, I lost out on hourly wage, but seriously. I'll just go and call it a day.

True, if your income would be nil that day, no reason to bother wasting time.
