Greetings from Florida!

I've been here for three weeks! The weather is great, the
beach is nice. I've found full time and part time
employment. I earn 18 dollars an hour at the two jobs
combined. I've got an apartment and car of my own. I'm
living my life as an adult would. After being a state
resident for a year, I am qualified to apply for a 1,000
dollar grant for students. So I'll be using that to it's
advantage. Going back to school next fall, getting a degree,
etc, etc. It's nice being on my own and doing things the way
they should be done. It's hard at times, but now I
understand what my parents always told me by having to make
sacrafices.



What's up with the crew? :D

Nice one, you were pretty miserable living at home weren't
you? I'm living with some pals now, it's class.

Congratulations, but.. 18 dollars an hour on two jobs
combined? That's.. very little.. are there no minimum wage
restrictions in america?

Florida is polluting you = you are polluting Florida

DM:the dude is like 21, you expect him to be a millionaire
by now, the min. wage is like $5.15

3 step increase is scheduled as follows:

$5.85 - Summer of 2007
$6.55 - Summer of 2008
$7.25 - Summer of 2009

Minimum wage, $5.15 equals approximately £2.80 per hour...
increasing to $7.25, or about £3.80 per hour. The U.S.
certainly knows how to treats its citizenry, #1.

Just thought I'd drop in to get this thread back on track.
Good to hear that you made it to Florida safely, jams. So
you've moved to Florida for a few years then? Which school
are you planning on attending?

i already ate them all, though, so it doesn't matter
anymore.

well, i know raspberries and blackberries have those little
hair-fiber things in them naturally, but I usually rinse
them gently in a bowl of water to shake off as many of them
as I can. I don't think it matters if you eat them, I just
try not too.

as of now i'm still alive, and i don't think it affected the
flavour at all, only altered the texture of the berries. i
wouldn't go out of my way to have some more hairy berries
but then again i wouldn't go out of my way to thoroughly
wash them either. 8/10

it's not like it takes all that long... 15 seconds at the
most to rinse them. :D

and stomach.

I suppose you're right... Human beings should just revert to
eating everything raw, straight after the kill, and stop
mucking about with this whole "culinary" circus.

How the fuck do you combine the hourly rate of two seperate
jobs, unless you work them both at the same time?

+?

Points: 24805 Status: Lurker | Show recordbag



If you work one job from 9 - 5 at $10 an hour and then a
part time from 6 - 10 at $8 an hour you are earning $9.33 an
hour on average. You can't combine them and say you are
earning $18 an hour.

yes, slop buckets and troughs should be the direction we
head in.

But troughs imply that the food has a buffer between itself
and the dirt. What if I want to eat my food directly off the
ground.?
