Thread: Got a new job

    Got a new job

    Just waiting for my background check to clear through. I'm gonna be a 'Researcher' for a government contractor in Arlington, VA. Its gonna be a great step up from my current job (Insurance Agent). They pay is gonna be decent too. I havn't been this happy in a long time.

    I think I am turning into a yuppie. Ill be taking the subway into work everyday and saving up to buy a BMW by the end of the year. I want to purchase one before I turn 24.

    If there are any DC area packerrats that want to meet up for a beer or 20, you should hit me up.
    I am better looking than you.

    Yea for some reason I'm in love with a 2007 328i convertible. Driving that around will help me meet some ladies haha.

    And to skinbasket, no its not, I'll be working on a project to help military units/veterans when they get back from deployment to figure out which benefits they can utilize or help them enroll into schools, etc. I'll also be working with their spouses while they are away on deployment to help them out. I think i'll be doing something good for society for once.
    I am better looking than you.

    I live up the red line. But I party at Dupont and Georgetown (more Dupont) whenever possible.

    Give it up. There's precious little time for partying these days--but if you can make it, arclite's buying...

    Slowing tracking you....like the beaver!

    How I wish you could see the potential
    The potential of you and me
    It's like a book elegantly bound
    But in a language you can't read just yet
