I’m beyond sick of Evernest/Dodson, countless maintenance requests for legitimate things, ignored phone calls, no communication between employees (aka different people showing up weeks apart for old requests with no clue what’s going on), procrastinating, etc.

I’ve also started filing complaints with the city about it and there’s an inspector coming out on Tuesday. I’m over it.

It's one thing when you are maybe stealing from one job to pay for the next job just hoping that somehow you'll get a break and everyone will end up paid.

It's another when you are stealing from one contractor or one customer and buying yourself a country club membership with it.

Also, it's like if you expanded too fast and couldn't do all the work but at least the work that you did manage to do was good, then maybe you just got in over your head. But if the work you did was shit, and you actively lied about it and ripped people off even when you had the funds, then the whole thing was never anything more than a rip off scheme.

Also he was mainly stealing from his own partners, leaving them in the lurch financially instead of him, and then on top of that he threw them under the bus in his legal defense.

There is a punk bar in VA Beach that serves "food" in the form of having a waitress microwave canned sloppy joe and put it on a bun. Bars have to offer some form of cooked food and pay a fine if alcohol sales are over a certain percent of total sales. A handful will offer some trash that is not recommended for actual human consumption and just pay the fine.

I went to one of the places downtown once to just sit in the corner and drink and watch people have fun because I am a wallflower. I ordered chicken tenders because I'm 12 and the cook came out of the back and like, hesitantly handed me a small plastic basket with paper lining and some chicken and french fries. I didn't really think anything of it until I started eating and one of the chicken tenders was like, a shockingly different. Like they ran out and had to run to the gas station to buy more. I honestly think I saw him peering around the corner to see if I was going to eat it. I did, and was scared, but nothing bad happened that I know of.

Anyway it was late on a Saturday night and no one else was there. So I dunno if that is what you would consider fun.

This is giving me wanderlust!

Sadly I’ve never owned a passport. But domestically, Austin, TX was phenomenal.

As for my bucket list: tracing my roots in Ireland! Seems that the majority of my lineage traces to Donegal. Probably worth popping over to Glasgow for the Scottish ancestry too.

This is very tough. If I could snap my fingers and end up anywhere for an afternoon… the swiss alps. That shit is unreal. I did not think such beauty could exist in the world. It feels like visiting the elves.

But for a longer period of time… I have never not had fun in Prague. Yeah obviously Amsterdam is dear to my heart but that feels more like a home than a travel destination.

Utsira, Norway takes 2nd place for a day trip teleportation.

Top of my list… probably South Africa or New Zealand.

You?
