*sigh* nothing better than getting another phat check!

I guess I should squirrel it away. With all the "I just got laid off today" posts around here lately, seems to me I better keep one eye over my shoulder. Then again, maybe not taking any CS in college is beginning to finally pay off!! :)

[bitter rant about being poor]
yeah, whatever mr. pennypinch

i just got paid, and guess how much loot i have left after i pay all my bills.

just guess.

ok, i'll tell ya. $52.79 to last me till next pay check. actually i'm not even sure i have that much, cause my checkbook isn't balancing very well.

isn't that dandy?

and that is including an empty fridge and almost expired metro card.
[/bitter rant about being poor]

so yeah, shush up about it, K?

but, at least i can go sit on the beach on the weekends, which is free. D'OH. i just remembered, it isn't free. GRRR.

Rofl...I got dropped from a dot com, but had a new job by the next day...so my severance actually gave me a bonus :)

I hate bills too...freakin $700 car payments are eating me up...but I still have enough $ to play golf 3 times a week and keep doing what I want to do... :)

What, New York isn't content to take a city income tax, they also decide they're going to charge admission to the goddamn beach?!

If ever there was a state that clearly seemed to be run by a family, it's New York.

actually, no, i think NY's beaches are free, it is the NJ Shore that charges admission.
i think it is $47 for a season pass, or $5 a day. but i need to get a season pass since i have a shore house (which is one of the many reasons why i have NO MONEY.)

and i know, i'm trying not to complain about being poor, its just rough. and if i wasn't such a bone head, i wouldn't be in the situation i'm in now. and it isn't like i live a particularly extravagent lifestyle, just one that is a little above my measly means.

i would love pay day even more if uncle sam didn't decide to take a huge chunk out of my paycheck (50%) for taxes...

does the gov't actually believe that social security is gonna last ?? i dont think so

yeah, not charging for beach access in NJ is an exception, not a rule. they usually sell season passes cheaper during spring for the locals, but they really oughta just let the locals have free access and charge the damn shoobies :thumbup: (although.. i'm one of them now.. cripes!)

Because my paycheck get direct-deposited every other week, I have basically lost track of when pay day really is! There is something wrong here!

I know WW Crest is, and I haven't been to Strathmere in a long time, but that was still free a couple of years ago.
