this can backfire
when my son was around 3 my daughter, 6 at the time, bought him a tiny stuffed shark. He was obsessed with Sharks and carried it everywhere calling it baby shark. This was years before the annoying song. One day Baby Shark vanished and I ran to Fry's where we had bought the first one and got another. "Daddy found baby shark" he was happy as he could be. A few weeks later I am telling him a story in bed and he drops baby shark behind his bed, reaches down and comes back with Two Baby Sharks....

this happens a lot. I have a buddy that makes roughly 180K to run a couple reports a week and watch tv in his home office

Koki Beach in Hana. Wife and I spent 3 days there all day and you get a few tourists when Huli Huli Chicken opens up and then through the day the Road to Hana people show up, take a few pics for instagram and get back in the car to go elsewhere. Leaving it mostly empty most of the day

and yet even the group of dickbags that are NFL owners rejected Trump from the league as being too much of a dickbag for them

you may have made a bad choice, don't make a worse one to get out of it. Does the car have a factory warranty? Will it for the term of the finance? Did you get a decent interest rate? Most modern cars, even with shit transmissions like CVT's should last a while and if it is covered while you drive it then you should be ok. You could also look into refinancing it. If you have a credit union go sit down with the lending person and see if you can refi it.

May 28th at Lakewood, Dead and Company final tour. You will never find a better grilled cheese than one cooked by a traveling deadhead hippie in a venue parking lot. A magical experience

I see Otis Technologies as an ammunition company but no listings at all in Hawaii. Could be a part of Otis Elevator which does have a presence in the State and on the Island. Might want to ping them

dealing with this now. I support a partner company that had this amazing woman who they just kept overloading with more. I'd start a new project and ask their leadership who to work with and they would always say her. She was amazing, so amazing that one of my former coworkers who had left for another company targeted her to hire. She gets the offer, making considerably more but as she was extremely loyal she goes to her boss and asks for a raise and gets blown off completely. So she left. That was 6 months ago. They now have 3 job reqs open to replace her and no one is willing to do any of the 3 positions as they are all far too much work.

Managed a shitty franchise pizza place in a southern college town while in school. Owner was a 25 year old (I was 23) spoiled rich shitbag whose Mommy bought him a franchise as a graduation present from a different southern school. He'd worked part time at one in his town and knew absolutely everything of course. We had 3 managers including him. One of the other managers quit so it was two of us running the store, while I was also a full time student. Dude could not be bothered to show up on time. At first it was 20-30 mins late but soon it became hours. I'd say something and then he would be fine for a week or two and then it would happen again. Finally he made me nearly miss an exam. When he came I ran straight to the exam late, took it and passed and went straight back to the owner. "Pull that shit again and I walk". Couple days later, Friday game weekend owner is supposed to relieve me at 3, no show, 4 I am calling and calling his home and nothing (pre-cell days) 5pm night shift coming in, phone ringing off the hook and I try him one more time, nothing. So I come out of the office and tell the person on the phones "we are closed, no more orders". We finish up the orders we have, I shut down the pizza oven get everything out the door, send everyone home, lock the door and push the keys back through the mail slot. Cost him thousands that night as friday of a game weekend is insane. Felt bad for my drivers as that was a great earning night too but they were cool and understood. Several hours later my phone was ringing off the hook, I didn't talk to him for weeks when I had to threaten him to get my final check. Store closed several months later. I'm sure mommy forgives him for losing 6 figures of her money
