God, don't I wish this were a joke. Good lord.
You know the kicker? For the last three years I have tried to make over $240K per year. That was my goal. I didn't make it the first year. Second year I would have made it but a hospital changed their start date from Nov 1 to Feb 1 so that fucked me. Then the third year, I would have made it too but I got 60K stolen from me by two guys in the company. (But my boss let me fire them personally, so that sort of made up for it). Ok... here is the kicker. I didn't expect to reach my goal this year. So when I quit my last company, I did it before Nov 1 and didn't work again until after Jan 1st. Wouldn't you know I made over 240 this year? last minute contract threw me over the top.
I wrote off shit like mad. All my donations to Shadowood II. I wrote off a ton of expenses for shit like food (even a new stainless steel grill too). I wrote off hurricane damages. I didn't even claim ANY money I make from my other three properties as income. According to me, the properties are just sitting there empty. I didn't claim any income from the money I made off those naked parties for Wildfyre either.
And I still come up with 28K. Fuck. It would be different if I owned a small business or something and it caused me to have this bill. I only had 7K to pay last year.
I actually feel sick to my stomach.
