My salary just got cut by 20% and it feels awful

[Capt Caveman]

You have eight more hours that you can work at your fiance's restaurant. Just make sure they don't keep your tips this time.

 

[OlafSicky]

She is going to leave you in 1 .. 2... 3...

 

[s0me0nesmind1]

engagement ring was almost $10k and it's paid for already
wedding rings were amlost $1k but her parents paid

Holy fuck you're retarded. BLOWING money out of epic proportions on a fucking wedding ring is the LAST thing to do. The LAST thing to do is to fuck the beginning of your career/life up with MASSIVE debt.

Building a stable life starts with a lot of beginning sacrifice, but an absolute ton of relief in the later years.

 

[DaWhim]

how about start your own business?

 

[rh71]

we got cut 15% right after my wife popped out twins. It was in the same conversation with my manager.

 

[TecHNooB]

Tommy I feel bad for you. Well for the job thing, the fiance is the monster you made.

LOoooooooool

 

[Perknose]

how about start your own business?

Like, maybe, a restaurant. Demand your finace's parents come help. Keep their tips.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Seriously though, I just hope she doesn't leave me because of this. I have already put so much time and money into her so I don't it to be all for nothing.

Always best to marry someone who can't make it through the vows without giggling. "I take you for richer or poorer... oh HELL NAW." That's the sort of foundation you want for a marriage.

Hard to tell if trolling...

I also am confused... Someone posts shit like this all the time, not sure if OP is the one.

 

[zinfamous]

You're not even trying anymore, OP.

sad.

yep, it's the OP. see above

 

[SunnyD]

Dump her.

 

[Dirigible]

If she's freaking out you should just buy her the expensive handbag to calm her down.

This.

She told you she doesn't need that $2500 bag anymore, but she really still wants it and will be mad if you don't get it for her for Christmas.

 

[Meghan54]

Personally, I think this farce is almost played out and is going to conclude with the "fiancee" leaving, and this troll story will end, something like nowheremom saga.

 

[rcpratt]

Why are so many people responding to this.

 

[Drako]

Why are so many people responding to this.

You just did. Oh, shit, now I did too.

 

[Franz316]

Guys, we've been had again by Tommy.

 

[Jumpem]

1. Stop looking for house.
2. Be happy you still have a job at all.

 

[shortylickens]

That cant possibly be correct.
Obama turned the economy around. Everyone is doing well.
Plus he just saves you 15% or more on your insurance.


:awe:

 

[jagec]

I got a 20% raise last year because I haven't had one in like 4 years. However that is pretty much gone now :|

"Pretty much"?

If you got a 20% raise last year, and a 20% cut this year, you are actually making LESS than you were before the original raise.

 

[CurseTheSky]

Speaking of handbags, she wanted a $2500 Bottega for Christmas. After I told her about my situation she actually said on her own that I don't have to get her one yet.

Problem found. Anyone that thinks you HAVE TO do something for them is not worth marrying in any way, shape, or form.

Posting in a Tommy thread

this...

 

[brianmanahan]

dude, i would LOVE it if i was getting paid %20 less but had to only work 4 days a week!

then again, i dont have a demanding spendthrift fiance who burns through my money...

Pretty much this. Can't figure out how so many people don't see through it.

 

[Dirigible]

I can't believe you'd cast such aspersions on one of our fine members.



I got your back, Tommy! Now go buy that $2500 handbag. Make it a happy Christmas!
