    Home improvement projects
    raise chickens
    brew beer
    raise family - really just the wife and boy, but he takes up so much of my time I don't have many other hobbies that I can concentrate on anymore.
    occasionally work on my car or wife's car or mother-in-laws car

    Why would you do that? I mean after all this time, wouldn't you be having fun doing something else?

    What? The raise a family part? Yeah, just kinda fall into that don't we.
    I do like your list, but I would surmise you have more time and money than I do right now.

    Both of those are incorrect, any time I have is before I get my son from daycare and after he goes to bed, as for money? See the having a child part. lol

    Dude how many years have you been at this job, and why haven't you been promoted to a higher paying position. ;)

    I mean I'm just a taxi driver and all and the pay isn't great but the people are just peachy, well you might know my sister....Sabine Schmitz?

    You dont have to be promoted to a higher job, just take your experience and talent and strive for more at a new company thats what most people do. Everyone knows the vertical climb is tough. Many people make the mistake of settling for a job and just being a drone for years, even where i work now... yeah the sales reps make good money but they think its too late to switch now or they dont "know anything else" and dont want to leave their high commissions. With that said, this doesnt even apply anymore to that thread, the dude said he loves his job and has gotten a nice raise every year. what more could u want? case closed

    I enjoy long walks on the beach at sunset, curling up on a bear skin rug in front of a fireplace with a glass of red wine and a nice romance novel.

    I know this is probably the wrong thing to say, but I'm going to get it out in the open anyway.

    I kind of want to sleep with your sister.

    By "kind of" I mean "I really would like to" and by "sleep with" I mean "not sleep at all".

    I hope this doesn't make things awkward for us.

    I strongly suggest you refrain from commenting on anything that sounds remotely like a career discussion on MNS for the foreseeable future.

    It's always better to ask for forgiveness than permission. I suppose you could try a sack of pork chops if you're feeling chivalrous.

    hobbies:

    filling out dating profiles - this is what we're doing here, right?
    cars - modifying and swapping mostly. It's all about the process for me. The end result and what I do with them after is secondary.
    powerlifting - "I pick things up and put them down"
    binge eating - nutrition in general... specifically carb cycling, keto, intermittent fasting, and skiploading
    golf - no girl pants though
    tinkering - I like taking things apart and putting them back together
    work - It provides the $ but I consider working a hobby. I could happily sell the house, cars, and stuff, and not work. But I'm pretty comfortable and certainly content with my lifestyle. If I didn't enjoy my job as much as I enjoy the other things on this list, I wouldn't be here now lol
    porn - we're filling out a dating profile here, right?

    Based on this post and the fact that you liked my previous post, either you're ok with me chasing after your sister or you have no idea what I said.

    She's had this bright red Fire Truck on her night stand since we were kids, I think she has a soft spot for a Fireman ;?)

    But I do know she loves Porsches and she's very good with them too. :coffee:
