How do you figure that you're grossing $85/hr?

I just want to make friends!
He's including benefits and who knows what else.
Probably the money he saved by eating meals the station provided at peak too...

Maybe $80. Do the math.
Saving almost $1900 a month in insurance premiums by working 10 or so hrs a week vs paying 2k a month in retirement insurance.
I make about $1100 or so a month working 40 or so hrs.
Saving 1900 plus making 1100 is roughly 3k.
Divide 3k by 40 hrs I work is close to $80, give or take a dollar or so.
My CPA even figured in my 8% Portable contribution, my 401k 3.5% match and it was close to $90 an hr.
All while keeping my benefits except for disability insurance.
Sweet deal.

Old flip flop probably could have saved a lot of money over his lifetime by choosing a team to root for instead of just picking whatever team was best that season or picking multiple good teams to cheer for.
I guess the satisfaction of cheering for the winning team all the time is better than actually retiring or something.

And the turkey or ham they gave us for Christmas.
But you're such a good employee they didn't make you choose, you got a turkey and a ham...

Not a turkey person if given a choice. Prefer a good spiral cut smoked ham. Some years we have been given 1 or the other. This year for Thanksgiving and Christmas they gave us a choice.
See, that's the difference between me and you. I would always choose turkey.

Until he gets his finances in order? You’ll be stuck helping him for the forseeable future and beyond and for $0.00 an hour. Sounds like such a lovely gig. You two hillbillies live in the same trailer park?

My pleasure and I hope I get to keep helping him. His dad passed away years ago and I have always looked after him and his mom. I have offered to finance his tranny but his mom is stubborn. Even to bench build a GM 4L60 tranny is over a grand so I make sure he has something to drive to work and school. I know helping others is beyond your grasp but that is what normal human beings do. You should try it sometimes, it might make your personality bearable to others.
That's wonderful! When can we look forward to your's being bearable?

Nice story.
So in other words, you found someone who will listen to all your crap? Congrats.

Then why are you on here?

Because no one at his station wants to talk to him.

Better than reading reading the comics. Tex, bacha, and cactus all whining and complaining and never happy. You just can't buy entertainment like that.

LMAO I just couldn't help myself. I had to see what old flip flop was saying.
You truly are the definition of a walking contradiction.
You've said, repeatedly that you don't care there are people you work with who are making $10 an hour less than you or that they have to work two jobs to make ends meet. You've told us you charge people in order to trade vacation weeks with you. You don't care you topped out in 14 months whereas some of your co workers have over a decade in and aren't close to top out but then you turn around and want us all to believe your a good guy, looking after your neighbour after his dad died?
You're so concerned about this guy, going out of your way to help him out and offering to loan him money, all the while not giving a
about the people you work next to.
Nope sorry, not buying it. The truth is more like you watch him deliver papers from your front window, knowing his hardships and do nothing. Buuuut you thought about helping so that's pretty much helping him.
