Currently unemployed... new job starts in January. : V

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 4:17 pm

Spent 6 years in the U.S. military and recently got out, i've been looking for a good job and recently found an amazing one. The only catch is that I won't start till January 3rdish. I have enough money to last me until then so what this means is I'll be playing ludicrous amounts of Skyrim for 1.5 months before I start working again.
:celebration: :celebration: :celebration: :celebration: :celebration: :celebration: :celebration: :celebration: :celebration: :celebration:

Anyone else having "good luck" around the time Skyrim comes out that'll let them play more? Maybe even just being able to take vacation?

I only work when I want to, and when I do, I do it from home.
Needless to say, from 11.11.11. and for quite a while, I don't
want to. Maybe sometime next spring, we'll see.

Time will drag on for you, I go back tomorrow and I was only off for a week. I was forced to take my time off as November through January are blocked out for me. I am not in retail by the way. lol.

I'm almost in the same boat. I only have one class right now (chemistry, eww), but all my free time besides that is gonna be in game!

And congrats on finding a great job!

Good luck in that I was smart enough to schedule a weeks vacation beginning the Monday after Skyrim's release. Releases on Friday 11-11-11, So I'll be at work that day, then it's off work for a week while I fritter my time away playing TES.

Organic chemistry is the ... smelliest. A lot of awful odors in that series.

Not here. My work and college schedule is packed, so I won't get to fully enjoy an entire day of Skyrim until maybe late December. :sadvaultboy:

Well not so much as having "luck" myself but...being disabled does have advantage since i can and likely will play Skyrim whenever i want! :hubbahubba:

Congratz on your new job!

I was planning to build a new PC for Skyrim, but well, I bought a house with my fiancee, so no money available.

Luckily for me my old pc seems to be able to run Skyrim :celebration:

Wow I didn't know the pound was worth that much, holy [censored]...jk

No holiday left

Plus living with the wife means I can't put time into games like I used to... when Oblivion came out I just abandoned humanity for weeks, and put in some ridiculous "shifts" of the game, but the best I can hope for with Skyrim is Friday/Saturday nights.

Still, should make it last even longer!

Nah, I get paid an extra ￡210 on Monday and already have ￡200.

One of the benefits of working at GameStop is that they don't find it weird if you request time off to play a video game :celebration:

» Sat Oct 15, 2011 4:10 pm

I have a book report due the thirteenth of November... I specifically scheduled my classes on tues-thurs so i would have friday-mon to play the game and then the drop this [censored] on me... >.<
