To everyone who celebrates it, Happy Lunar New Year!

Whee, I have a five-day weekend! And the office closed early yesterday too. That's longer than my 4.5-day Thanksgiving break! I'm not completely off the hook from work duties, though.

I was in two New Year parades this year -- feeling kind of paraded-out at the moment, but they were fun :)

Thanks!

Happy New Year, 雙胞胎姐妹 (twin sister)!

And congrats on your work! I know, I was shocked this year to only have received 1 W-2 form rather than the usual 3 from my usual odd-jobs. Hope you don't get bored with the sameness...if so, I recommend decorating your cubicle as much as possible within company policy ;)

Happy New Year to you too :D

lol, I actually received four W-2 forms this year, so it'll be another year until my number of W-2 forms go down. I made more than I thought I did though, after adding all the income together. But my total taxable income is lowered because I had put away something like 40% of my Starbucks earnings into my 401(k). No wonder I felt like I wasn't making a lot at that job *g*

Happy New Year :D

I've enjoyed having many jobs since I graduated from college, even if none of them lasted more than 2 years. I have no idea how people can stay decades in the same job (my dad's been in his job for almost 30 years now). Me, I get bored after a few months, and am still surprised that I managed to stay at the same Work Study job during all 3.5 of my undergraduate years.
