If I just didn't get off work and didn't have to work tonight, I would suggest we go hang out. I'm not from here and working on a contract so I don't get to go out much but my new year's resolution is to work less and explore Pittsburgh! (Any good suggestions?)

I currently am on a contract in Pittsburgh, lovely city so far.
Since I'm relatively young and healthy I always get a high deductible plan anyways, so I'm not entirely sure if my plan is competitive with other employers.
Company 401k plan is alright, could have a few better options. But the company does give me a 5% match.

Contract worker here, I get health, I get retirement, I dont get holidays so I always volunteer to work them so that doesn't matter (I'd rather have my coworkers get the holidays off anyways since I'm never near my family). Depending on your agency you can get time off (work x amount of hours to get x amount of time off), mine I don't but yeah I would rather just work 6-9 months out the year and take the other 3-6 months off.Also for the termination I have had one contract terminate (My contracts are generally 13 weeks) I had about 4 weeks left on mine and they cut the whole hospital system's contractors. I get paid out 2 weeks still.I've been working as a contractor for about 6 years now because I like the flexibility of working when I want and you know visiting the US while working. I will never go back to working as a permanent employee in my field, if contracts dry up I'll simply transition over to working for medical instrumentation companies.

I am, we were even in high school. The best part is my other friend went to Sams club the day the wii was released and didn’t have to wait at all to buy it

My friend once lived in Walmart for 3 days (Of course with the permission of Walmart) to "wait in line" for a Wii.

Wow, I saw this place on Uber eats and have been telling myself I need to physically go there and this post and comments are hyping it up.
