I was supposed to start a job today, but I realized a few hours into training that I had been sold a bill of goods (was told it'd be entirely order entry and processing, was instead almost entirely talking to customers and having someone else do the entry and processing) so I walked out.

Didn't really cost me anything, but I sure felt like a dumbass, both for falling for it and for not putting up with it.

That's because you're poor tier and don't understand the time cost.

I make the equivalent of $70/hour. My personal time is worth atleast that much. It's cheaper for me to eat out or get delivery than spend 30minute/$35 to cook my own food.

I got so trashed last friday, called an Uber to get about a mile away from my house. The african guy who was the driver took advantage and looped around for 40 mins running up the fare to total it $30.

This meme needs to die. Mcdonalds salads are just as healthy as other salads. Its not like they use vegetables that are infused with mcfatness. The only source of processed sugar is from the dressing. Instead of using their ranch just drizzle it with some of your own light balsamic dressing and you have a pretty decent cheap salad.

This. Mcdonalds side salads are inexpensive and healthy as fuck. Just stay away from the salads with crispy chicken, croutons, cheese and fatass dressing. If you're going to get chicken, go for the grilled.

Yesterday some guy came to my house and gave me a $50 bill for some bike parts I listed on Craigslist.

I didn't have my wallet on me so I just put the 50 in my pocket which also had a paper towel to wipe the sweat because it was so hot.

I took my dog for a long walk and as I reached in my pocket and pulled out the paper towel the 50 must have slipped out.

I went back and forth over the route even on my bike asking people if they found a 50 but no luck

>>
>>1282276

Been there senpai, after a month you'll stop getting high off the coke and just start mad sweating when you come down. At this point four things will happen:

you will be rich enough to start spending 300-600 a weekend on coke
you will switch to crack to save money
you will start sucking dick for money
you will quit.

The only good thing about a coke habit is its so expensive you have to quit. One of the reasons you see so many more heroin junkie than smack heads is that heroin is dirt cheap until your tolerance is high and you are so addicted you will die if you don't have some.

I recently started going to the gym and felt nervous about interacting with my fellow gym rats due to my obesity so I spent $108 on Goji Berries to share between everyone so they would know I am serious about health food and getting fit and wouldn't make fun of me.

Ended up getting kicked out of the gym and having my membership cancelled because I told a qt that she can have Goji Berries if she can blow me cherries. As a flirty joke, just to break the ice. She reported me and I got banned. I had to leave the berries behind as well so I don't even get to eat them. Also, I am now unable to lose weight and will continue to spend $500 a month on mostly unhealthy food (breakfast has been slices of pizza for a few days)

Other one, went to Buffalo Wild Wings with a friend and I spent $27 between wings, some fries and a couple beers.

I mean, it's not really a huge fuckup and I'll save about $1,200/month regardless of what I spend. But... that's all I can count from the past month.
