Reconciling personal budget

Same... and then weeping openly until my wife's next paycheck hits, lol.

This would imply a lack of budget or an ignoring of said budget. Not reconciling.

Actually, no. We are getting better about sticking to a budget. I get paid once a month, and wifey gets paid twice a month. It's just depressing when there's $20 left in the bank with another week to go to her paycheck. We pay all the bills at the beginning of the month, so there's fewer surprises after her second check lands.

Getting paid just once a month was real hard for me to get used to and it did take some time lol.

Yeah. It's not so bad now. We're just pushing the limits a bit more than I like. We got some plans in the works. We're likely going to refinance the house and get some repairs done. If it works out like I plan, it'll leave us a little bit of breathing room. We already have a tin roof scheduled to go on in November. We're trying to decide if it would be better to refinance now, or wait until after the tin goes on.

Why are you still dealing with this sort of issue?

Relaxing after a long day, have some light customer work to do here in a bit but otherwise not much.

With your boss passing off random issues as "acceptable".

They've been using this CRM (vtiger) for ticketing since they opened, so to them it's normal "just log out log back in and it'll be fine"
But to Answer your question, I'm dealing with the problems, because I'm using this as a stepping stone (and a chance to build skills get certs outside of work) to move into something better.

@jmoore This is an 80% mechanical from Varmilo with blue style switches. Attaches through a usb-c and weighs 2.3 pounds or 1.04 kilo

1Kg, that's pretty heavy. That kbd should come with a warning, it's so bright. I couldn't use that when hung over, it'd hurt.

Light customers are good, they're easier to throw out the door.
