Already booked 3 grand in travel expenses for the next two weeks and I need to book three more weeks soon after that.

Its amazing that when you book last notice that the Ritz becomes an approved hotel choice.

On the other hand, damn the hours on this job are gonna be awful, even the girl from HR laughed at the idea that we would only work 40 hours a week.

Just wait until your suppliers take you out for meals. It’s crazy what they’ll order for you after you have your first supplier yearly review.

Son, 40 hours is just a start if ya want to get ahead. 168 hrs in a week. Work half of those and maybe you can retire by 50.

FWIW, I haven’t had a credit card since ‘83. Always cash. So the ISP I worked for in the 90s gave me an AmEx that I never saw a bill for. That card was so good that I could get cash on it to take the west coast OpCenter guys out to places for lunch that didn’t take credit cards. Some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. Thanks guys, for showing me the way.
