After highschool (I actually dropped out) I worked a ton of dead end jobs. Cooking mostly, but there was roofing, painting, digging holes, lots of manual labour.

Eventually I moved to Vancouver and had an opportunity to become a card dealer. It was.... How do I put it so you can fully understand... The worst experience by far, ever. It was toxic abusive, exhausting, and just all around the worst.

My partner at the time got pregnant and she actually gave me an out, said I didn't have to be there at all. I thought my options over and decided I was going to be apart of this kids life and enrolled in college for IT. It was a bit of cheating really, I was already good at it so why not. 18 years later, I'm a consultant, doing well and my daughter is starting grade 12 next year.

Omg yes and it's my favorite. Absolutely hands down, the best.

There is a place in Vancouver called AJ's brooklyn pizza joint that does a Detroit style pizza, I'll usually grab one every couple of months.

I kinda always wanted one for an HTPC, eventually there were better options and the need for one just went away.
