So I thought i was going to hate my life as a non-grinder but I have to admit, I really like the structure that having a job has. I also forgot how much i love to travel and how much I love technology and everything about my job. I don't even really feel like I'm working when i work, I feel like im learning every day.
I was doing a very difficult project for TA truck stops/Petro truck stops where we were essentially installing completely new networks. Working with fiberoptics, switches, routers, linux and everything you could imagine dealing with a network on a commercial scale. Admittedly this project was way over my head. I have no experience with linux/cisco and i'm not too comfortable with server work. My lead man got terminated for getting into a fight with a manager so I didn't really get to absorb all of the new knowledge because we had to come home asaply.
I'm leaving out sometime this week on a sick easy project where all i have to do is upgrade computers in wal-mart making a minimum of $300 a day. I'm bringing this girl with me + Show Spoiler +
. We have been on and off for 3 years, lets hope we are only on for the 2 months we're gonna have to live together while i do this new project. Maybe I'll teach her a bit and have her work with me and pay her, i'm not sure exactly what we're gonna do yet but im way happy to have her with me and not be totally alone.
some random pics from the TA project

This is me like 50 feet up on this sign. I wanted to go to the top but there was a metal plate blocking me from going any higher.

This is the most beautiful cable management i've ever seen in my life.

This pic was taken on the az/ca border. I've never in my life seen a prettier sight, The pic doesn't do justice.
I haven't played hardly any poker, i was working like 16hr days on the TA project. I'm still on cake however i'm considering moving. Mostly just been playing nl100 hu and if i can't find a game there nl50 hu. The break from poker is amazing. I didn't realize at all how much of a weight that would be lifted off my shoulders not having to win at poker to pay the bills.
