I really think that it depends on the frequency of these team dinners. If they’re every night, then yeah sure you can and should excuse yourself from attending. No one is going to write you a bad review because you didn’t attend a team dinner.
But if they’re like once a week, what’s the harm in sucking it up, breaking your routine and just going with it? I’m sure you can find a $40 kale salad to bill your client for.
This used to be me. Eventually I realized that the one common denominator in my ~1 year former relationships was me. When I looked back on the pre-break up speeches my exes gave me and realized that they tended to mention the same things that bothered them, I realized that I had to change my behaviors if I were to ever have a successful life-long relationship.
How do you do that? Honestly, no fucking clue. It’s hard as fuck and I’m doing that now because my current girlfriend is someone I could see myself spending the rest of my life with and I would be incredibly angry with myself if she left for the same reasons that others before her have.
To the girl who has no luck messaging guys: what do you use as your opening line? If it’s “hi” or some variation thereof, there’s your reason. Gotta get a bit more creative.
Not quite true if you’re exempt because if you work any part of that week, you have to be paid in full. Sucks if you’re hourly though, but that’s a reasonable excuse to get out of it.
Stage 6: The Rebound. A few years down the line, your crush finds out that Brad has indeed been double dipping and decides to divorce him. You’re there to save the day.
You honestly probably don’t want a high profile case. They take forever (weeks and weeks) and if your job is project-based and there’s no one else to do it for you, it’s going to suck making that up.
1. No
2. Depends. I drink my coffee black so I can tell good coffee from bad coffee but I can’t tell the difference nuances apart. That said, if you slip 2% milk into my coffee, I will literally shit all over you because I’m a lactard.
3. No
4. No
5. Yes
6. No
This might cause some to advocate my man card to be taken away, but I’m actually kind of ok with this. The 49ers sucking is obviously bad, but on the bright side I don’t have to plan 16 Sundays a year around their games and the mediocre general NFL product makes it okay to miss the games. I only have one fantasy team so I’ll check in a few times an hour on Sundays to see how it’s doing, but no biggie. I still get my football fix from college football, which is a FAR more superior product than the NFL (hot take, I know).

Money. Money (or lack thereof if you quit your job) is what’s stopping you.
More like $4,500-$5,000 since most salaries are in pre-tax dollars and you’d be paying the sitter in after-tax dollars.

Those damn young whippersnappers with their Snaphones and their iChats.
Major props for that Simpsons reference at the very end.
I don’t understand how people drink this stuff. It smells like my bathroom during one of my hangovers.
Except it’s a shitty solution. Could’ve been much easier to code it to 1 vote per IP address. Also, the app is still broken and won’t let you upvote.

Did you get fired again?
True. I guess writing articles bitching about your problems instead of solving them is the way to go these days.
You can buy the whole series on a Blu-ray for $35. Miss out on one brunch and spend it on that instead.

I think that we should all take a second and reflect on how lucky we are to live in ‘Murrica and not fucking Venezuela or Syria.
