A good start to this year.

Post by YourGrandpa »

My company just handed me the keys to a 2006, fully loaded Toyota Tundra. The truck only had 18 miles on it when I got it.

Couple that with the over $3000.00 in bonuses and $500.00 a month pay increase, I think the rest of this year is going to go just fine.

Congrats to me....:icon27:

May you all enjoy the same success this year. :icon25: :icon14:

I'm up to $13.50/hour. Not bad for part time, I guess. And I enjoy my job, so life is good.

I got a 30% raise this year. Granted, I had a pretty shitty pay before, but we're just a small startup, so you'll have to just take what you can get.

Congrats man.

I'm stuck in a shitty-ass internship doing shitty-ass support for a bunch of shitty-ass call center executives. Everyone who has worked with me says I'm better than most their full-time developers but I suppose the best way to utilize me is making me do nothing all day. But I'm not bitter.

Why did they give you a truck? What sort of work do you do?

Do you work at Toyota? I'm contracting for them right now. I might look at getting one of the IS350's or something since I can get it under dealer price.
