katt_goddess Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Congrats on becoming one with the rat race. And it probably won't be that long. Most orientations are a mix of filling out paperwork for taxes and stuff like that and watching stupid videos about how not to kill yourself while lifting things with a lunch break somewhere in the middle. Depending on how long it takes you to do the paperwork and how long or how many videos you have to watch, time will just fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that were the case, you'd have that hot tub and your own place instead of living with your mom. Because the only way you could have been making more than me all those years and still be broke would be if you just shoved the paychecks directly up your butt and set it on fire.
