For some reason today's giving off the Oak Ridge Boys' "Elvira" kind of vibes

I just scored a $18,000 raise for my same job.

Yaassss. 86k is better than 68k.


Btw for a 24/48 or 56 hour average shift multiplying your hourly by 3328 = your gross annual.

Guess this is my reward for sticking around through the last two years.

If you’re non-exempt.

I have to use an Xcel model to figure out what I take home the stupid half hours that the FD uses.

Ok ankle, WTF? Normal day off, kinda lazy couch potato kinda day, but interspersed with getting up throughout (if nothing else making my FitBit happy with hourly steps heh)
Then I'm about to run to the store real quick, put on my shoes and as soon as I stand up, bam

Sudden, sharp pain left ankle, can't even walk down the hallway without limping like I just sprained/strained it...

Except I can't think of anything I did to actually sprain or strain it, like literally nothing happened, fine one moment, hurting the next...

Like had to cancel my planned run, Tylenol, some icing, and a day worth of rest later, a lot better but still just sore...

Annoying

I just worked a few paybperiods without any extra OT and extrapolate that out to the whole year (x24 since our pay periods are 15 days). Though that's good for the Net base pay, I can just look at my End of Year pay stub and it'll tell me what I grossed the whole year.

Nice dude! I got a huge pay increase going back to the ambulance, but I also just came back to the ambulance in time for an even bigger pay increase that only current employees got. Had I gotten hired like a week or two later, I wouldn't have had such a nice pay increase. I would've been paid less than my initial offer to go back to the ambulance. I still would've been happy with the pay anyways. It's much better than what I've been getting for the past couple of years.

Yeah flight actually doesn’t pay too well.
