      Woot! I got a new job today! Turned in my resignation! I will be an assistant systems administrator for the Federal Government. I will be working with the Federal Public Defenders office of the Eastern District of Missouri. This will position myself nicely so that when the kids are out of high school I have the availability to transfer if I want to. More money and less hours. I am on call right now 24/7 and that is not exaggerating and I am just tired of it.

                    Oh great now I can never read another post from @PenguinWrangler because he'll be trying to weaken my encryption and steal my data.

                      Too late. He's already wiretapped your phones, hijacked your internet connection and is already downloading your internet history for the past 6 weeks.

                        Good thing I use Tor, and a temporary desktop environment for everything.

                        Just need to tighten my tinfoil hat.

                                    Just found out that I qualify for partial student loan forgiveness with this new job. Becuase of my divorce and subsequent child support payments I haven't paid off any of my student loan debt. Now I might have up to $63,000 forgiven.

                                      Fyi...loan forgiveness is also considered income and the IRS will tax the crap out of it and potentially put you in another tax bracket.

                                        Even so - the tax will only be 35% or less of the $63K, so he'll get at least 40K of actual reduction in payment. I call that a win.
