I am so glad they didnt ask my salary expectations because I would have said like 70-80k lol

I'm really excited, I'm gonna be able to move out on my own (once the pandemic settles down). Its also WFH for the foreseeable future

If you haven't already I suggest you start a 401k and a Roth IRA, this will help you expand that 6 figure job, into millions for retirement.

i was looking for a software job, entry level, 8 years removed from graduating college with no professional experience last year. Was offered 10k over what I was hoping forand a 20k raise over my previous job

its been so nice, esp now

Yeah I'll definitely do that ASAP. My last job didnt do 401k matching so I was putting it off

That's great :D I'm glad you found something. It's hard to get an employer to give you a chance without professional experience sometimes

I'm on unemployment, yes, but that's less than half of what I was making. Plus I was on and off unemployment for months, I finally get a full-time job and then this shit happens.

I'm just bitter. Seriously, congratulations on making a job, friend.

ask for a higher salary.

also, if you live in Portland, would you consider somewhere across the Washington border to save money on taxes, or would you prefer to live in a city downtown?

Are you in a position to negotiate? I hope you can find somewhere that values your work

The only movie I can even think of with gladiators in it is Life of Brian. That was preddy good

God no, this is way more than I expected. Plus I only have 1 yr of experience and a bachelors lol

I can't drive so I guess the commute would be pretty tough. I wont be short on money, so I'd rather live close to everything for convenience

Oh yeah for sure. I did treat myself to a new drawing tablet last night, but mostly just focused on saving for a condo

Okay so let's say Cornman needed a pet (which he does), do drunk bears count as pets then can you fly me there to live in this condo and can I get free beer from you?

I feel like if it wasn't for me, you'd still owe me $50
