Probably, one of the worst kind of bosses you could ever encounter

I think the only thing worse than a micromanager boss, is a ‘wait till the job is finished, then I’ll come in and change everything according to whatever the fuck I want’. Does that have a specific name besides being a total unprofessional piece of shit? Because, let me tell you, I work with one.…

Work advice, lesson, wisdom… Get it, and improve your quality of life

For better or worse, I decided very early in my adult life that the vertical career path was not for me. Starting entry-level, climb up the ranks, grind every day, promotions, reach new corporate levels, get the bread, get the position, achieve “success”. Just imagining all this disgusts me. I cannot fathom how people do…

Taco Tuesday

Hear me out, $2 tacos is ridiculous, especially if you have over 10 options to choose (but, let’s be real, carnitas, barbacoa and birria are the go-to EVERY SINGLE TIME). I won’t ever pay full price for tacos again in my life, can’t do it. It’s a thing of principles. 6 tacos and a beer…

Why do it today with no rush, when you could do it tomorrow under pressure?

It’s amazing how losing one single evening can fuck up basically your entire weekly schedule. You lost it, ok. Drinking, eating, playing video games, procrastinating, at an event, etc. You lost it doing something you were not supposed to do because it wasn’t planned. You had your fun at that moment. Present me had a…

Día de fútbol

It’s usually a Saturday or preferably a Sunday. It starts with a hearty breakfast and alcohol (in this case, champagne). It follows through with a pre game before a big game (in this case, vodka shots). It then continues all the way to the stadium with alcohol (in this case, beers). You finish the game,…

Untitled – Saturday #39

I tried, for reals. Searched my notes for content, thought about what to write for over 20 minutes, absolutely nothing intelligent came to mind. Don’t know if it’s because it’s almost midnight and it was a long day, because I’m my mind is really blank and doesn’t want to produce anything creative or because I…

Starts with exercise, ends with a big meh

Missing an exercise day is a slippery slope towards unhealthy behavior; at least in my case. “Ok, so I couldn’t exercise today. So what? I’m a human, not a machine, some days is just not possible. Plus, the weekend just started. It was a busy week, might as well reward my self with pizza and…

Tonight will be the night, I’m sure of it

Started writing something, got interrupted, and then my motivation went straight to shit. Done. Can’t do anything about it now, and I refuse to sit in front of the computer for an hour trying to produce a post worth sharing. Nope, won’t even try. I still have stuff to do before going to sleep. Opposite…

Markets red, again; losing money, again; the pain never stops

Damn, got crushed on the market AGAIN. Every time the FED talks or tweets something, the wound bleeds again. My portfolio was on the way to being healthy. I was seeing green and feeling good about it. Negative double digits went to single double digits in a week, very near breaking even for the first…
