With the 15+ mentions over the last 2 mos


Mar 3, 2021, 8:42 AM

It seems you all miss me along with a couple of AWOL joungers

I don't have any great tales of the last 8 mos to keep your imagination captive. I lost my job along with 70 some odd other employees last July. That job had me sitting in front of a computer all day. While yes it was dead end I enjoyed what I did and made a good living. They gave me a great severance package that allowed me to wipe out all of my debt aside from my mortgage.

I took a job at a local camera store, where the owner always bragged about being the only camera store in the state of SC. There I made Joe Biden's minimum wage and discovered you would not be able to making living working full-time at minimum wage, even if its $15/hr. I guess minimum wage was never meat for 40 hr/week workers. Who knew?

I spent my fall hiking and camping and winter on the icy north faces of Sugar and Beech Mtn, as usual. I picked up some heavy duty pro camera gear along the way that's not making me any significant money but I have fun using it. Up next is a $12k lens like you see on the sidelines of pro sporting events.

A few months ago a Charlotte based company sought me out for employment. They were one of my accts from my last job. They offered me a position consisting of sitting in front of a computer all day and with a pay raise nearly double that of what I was making at QS1, doing the exact same work I did at QS1, I felt I couldn't let this pass by. QS1 will most likely be closing their doors in 7-10 yrs. so I hope to ride this wave until then. After that I need the $12k lens to start paying me back.

Mar 3, 2021, 8:51 AM

After having the job at QS1 for 15 years and worried to leave, then getting laid off and realizing its not a big deal, I don't have an issue with this job lasting 7-10 years. ####, if its gone in 4 I'll be ok with that too. As Obed eloquently labelled it, its a dead end job. Who wants that?

Its work from home

Please to be explaining why anyone, for any reason, would move to Moonville. Kthx.

There are 2 things in Moonville that I know of:


Mar 3, 2021, 8:55 AM

1. A McDonalds
2. A factory that is a BMW supplier

Don't recall if there is a stop light or not. I'll go out on a limb and say there is prolly a dollar store there too, but that part is unverified.

Mar 3, 2021, 9:16 AM

I never ever would have thought I would own a lens like that or even some of the gear I have now. I know this might sound petty to some of the thousandairs on here but it feels great to be able to drop the 12 grand on the lens w/o batting an eye. I should have it by Aug, in time for the elk rut season.

I got into DoorDash'ing


Mar 3, 2021, 9:11 AM

I quit the camera store at the beginning of Feb and started my new job Mar 1

I did that so I could have a month off to do whatever which included skiing and picture taking.

My brother is a full time firefighter and on his days off he started DoorDash'ing and told me about it. So I looked into and signed myself up.

Turns out people are lazy af and will pay money to keep this lifestyle up. In Feb I "Dash'ed" for 50 hrs and made $900. I think I spent about $200 in gas.

Sadly no one ever came to the door nekkid. The laziest delivery I ever made was from a Marcos Pizza to an apartment complex behind Marcos Pizza. When I put the address in my gps at Marcos Pizza it came up with a 5 min walk.

A buddy sent a group text pic of an oyster roll from our


Mar 3, 2021, 9:18 AM

local sushi joint. Since they only do takeout when we have pandemics (I think they just made this rule up on the spot a year ago since I had never seen it documented anywhere), I haven't had their sushi in forever, but I believe this roll costs $7. He paid something around $20 for it after tax, tag, title, delivery, and bloodwork.

4 miles. I can't imagine what their total bill was for that.

The family meal box is like $25 so add in the $14 and then


Mar 3, 2021, 9:49 AM

Door Dash has to take some kind of cut, they could have spent $50 for chicken fingers.
