similar to you but i mostly stick to tv shows for entertainment, not a gamer either. Movies is mostly when I go out and someone else wants to. I should definitely read more, oh well.

You have 8,000 posts about politics or race on a basketball forum...you definitely have free time. :oldlol:

HOLY SHIT of all posters I don't know why you're talking. you're a GUARANTEED, effortless knock out.

I'll show up to your mcdonalds and knock you out cold on the job. You'll be unconscious on the floor with your burger flipping spatula in your hand.


then I'll call your manager on you and get you fired for sleeping on the job after I knock you out cold.

I expected nothing and still you disappoint me. I could eat a bowl of alphabet soup and shit out a more clever reply than that.

Same applies to whatever comeback snaggle had in mind btw, since his replies and comebacks are always terrible and cringey.

What type of other forums do you post on?

Occasionally hardforum (electronics stuff), I check head-fi for audio stuff.. Another private forum occasionally (bte).. I used to read realgm but felt awkward posting there not knowing anyone. It took me years to feel comfortable posting on subforums outside of Lakers forum on ISH.

Hoops, hoops, hoops.

Spend a lot of time around the Prep/AAU scene, contributing to various websites with content & rankings (such as PrepHoops), while also working with BallerTV as a videographer and site lead.

Simulation leagues.


That's my free time. Rest of it is work or family.

Occasionally but mehhh.. Reddit is good but posters will always vary from post to post. Good for information, but you are not knowing anyone there

what business are you in ???
Your quote is obviously to high , and are blowing you off.
Starting a business, you all most have to give the work away , to get customers to spread the word , then he can pay increase and start making a living.
it's a construction trade. i don't want to go into more detail cuz we legit have some weirdos on here who will try to find me.

anyhow, pricing is something i definitely have tried to dial in, hence why i would ask for feedback. the first month of bids i definitely was off. but recent feedback has told me i'm competitive for the most part, also i've gotten awarded some so i know my pricing is market rate.

but yeah, i try to price it very tight so i can get in with a company. in construction, if you manage to impress one General Contractor (the customer), they tend to use you for future projects. So that's my main goal, get my foot in the door with a few of them and that should provide enough work to keep me busy.

Dry Fly Fishing, preferably in a remote stream for trout.... never liked fishing, but this, you should try, any of you, its not fishing, its ART, can do this 24-7.

Road Biking, outside the city preferably, nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than speeding with a 15-16 lbs carbon dura-ace road bike.

Basketball, shooting specifically, i dont like to play as much as before, i prefer to be alone with a nice swishy netted hoop and just... shoot...

Movies (cinema).

That's a good plan. I have worked for some years as a project manager. Once you find a sub-contractor that you know, works well, at a decent rate, you tend to keep going to them. Life is stressful enough and a project manager loves it when things are uncomplicated. Nobody wants to start the process new every time.

That is in my area , high end business. A buddy of mine , does a lot of work , word of mouth , and alot of his cash flow is under the table.
I hope you don't disappoint your self , by not getting enough work.

nice. that reason is precisely why i'm also having some trouble tho, getting PM's to trust a new sub isn't an easy task :lol

word of mouth goes a long way even in today's era. thanks man, i just want enough work to keep busy. i can't stand slow days/weeks where i only work a couple days out of the week.
