Rebirth of the Bored at work thread......are you?

in mass, we get a form from our insurance company that we have to file with our taxes. so basically, if you can't afford your crappy insurance, you get less money in your tax returns. gotta love it

cherry_or_gtfo

That's retarded.

I know that when I quit here, I'm cashing in my 401K, so I know I'm going to have to pay a penalty on that. If it's not in 2011 taxes, it will be in 2012 taxes.

laurjohn2

on a positive note, i've reached my $5k deductable, which means insurance is actually covering stuff now

i am replacing my 2001 ford taurus with a 2000 Honda Civic. the Taurus is about to totally die and want to trade it in before it is totally worthless. The Civic has 75K miles on it and runs awesome. will be nice to be able to drive to work without worrying about the car dieing on the way. Problems with the Taurus: bad body rot rear of car, check engine light on, needs new tranny, needs new output speed sensor, needs exhaust fixed, needs new timing chain, leaks coolant, leaks oil.....yeah

New vehicles are always exciting. When I bought my Alero in college (it was a 99, I bought it in like 03), it was the nicest newest car I had owned and I wanted to live in it.

One hour and a half left.

And I just arranged a date of sorts for Wednesday. It's not much of a date cuz we're just hanging out watching a movie, but it's a new person I'm trying to get to know. I'm excited and nervous at the same time.

laurjohn2

great being able to drive a car to work without worrying about it dieing on the way there

laurjohn2

cherry_or_gtfo

laurjohn2

That is a very little car for your growing family John.
Good on gas,...but that's about it.

Where is the sunroof? Heated leather seats? DVD player?

this isnt the family car. its just to get me to and from work. it has a sunroof. fantastic on gas. will save me a lot a month, even with car payments

I just remembered I have a background check tonight in class.

This should be interesting.

Have you guys ever had one?
