If getting the cert is part of your goals or part of your work, then you need to tell your boss you are willing to put in the work during business hours. Anything work related outside of business hours requires overtime pay.

If these certs are not part of your goals/work, then I would suggest talking with your boss about incorporating them in.

Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City is a very decent movie. It doesn’t deserve the hate it gets.

I like to ask folks what they do for fun, gives me a better general idea of who they are

I just can’t imagine being able to eat anything with that fork, would rather use my fingers

For me it updates frequently and changes a lot of little things (like button placement, or defaults) that just don’t need to be updated.

I work in a fairly toxic work environment.

The reasons I do what the engineers are doing are,

1. A lot of times people will ask me questions and I give them answers. Then something will go wrong and it will somehow be my fault that I didn’t mention it to them (they didn’t ask, and I don’t know the specifics of what they are doing).

2. I have my own goals and projects for the year. Why should I give you a significant amount of my time when my salary/bonus will not reflect helping you in anyway.

3. Job security.

These might sound bad, but that is how it works in corporate America

Edit: It sounds like you need management on board with you before you can fully continue

Similar boat recently, talked to an FA and am now investing. Also got a life insurance policy and LTD policy just in case…

Wanting expensive designer clothes/accessories.

One, I hate spending money. Two, I’d worry about ruining them too much to ever want to wear/use them. Three, they just generally aren’t comfortable.

Everyone needs to watch him in Taskmaster, he is just wonderful

I put the most hours into Awesomenauts during college… really miss games that time

Just my suggestion, but you should read them all!

Why you’d want to stop at 4 I’ll never know!

I cannot recommend The Dark Tower series enough, it is my absolute favorite. You need to buckle in and prepare for the long journey ahead though.

I just went to Dreamforce last week and was told they push the tents further away from the conference while it’s happening.

I don’t know what it looked like before but there are still PLENTY of homeless in San Francisco and it’s very sad to see.

Less scifi and more fantasy, I just finished The Priory Of The Orange Tree and I highly recommend

And just want to add A Great And Terrible Beauty as another Fantasy book that is a wonderful read (series)

Her entire channel is a great watch, only person I’ve ever used Patreon for

It’s a shame. This was exactly the game my husband was looking for - Overwatch minus Blizzard

There was a point I tried to switch to Epic, just to try it out - it is so unbelievably slow & oddly hard to find and organize my own games. They NEED to start putting $$ into the UI otherwise all those free games are for nothing if idetest opening the client itself.

I really liked the ending, would recommend finishing it
