Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

If you have any kind of mobility issues, existing or chronic muscular or skeletal issues or anything like that I *highly* recommend giving purely bodyweight training a go in conjunction with some yoga as a warmup or cool down.

BW exercises are a lot gentler on the body than weights and the body learns to adapt and compensate for injuries (though check your form).

I don't remember it at all.

I'm pretty cheap and tend not to pay extra for mere conveniences. While I don't consider alts mere conveniences mules certainly are.

They again I hadn't retired yet when I played XI and did have spare cash. Still, $5/month extra is the kind of thing I balk at.

This is why I don't like to make "friends" at work. Other people are either co-workers(people with the same temporary goal), managers, clients, or competitors(who gets in my way for MY promotion? Kick them out with subterfuge skill!). IMO there is entirely way too many potential conflict of personal benefit in workplace to build true friendship without the risk of ruining it.

When I have emotional need for friends, I go search for people with absolutely zero chance to have potential conflict of personal interests. It's much easier this way.

Paying the extra 2 bucks a month to save yourself the effort of running all the way across Vana'diel, just to find out that the other auction houses(they used to be separate) don't have what you want. Worth.

You probably did the right thing, though. At work people are either productive and useful, or unproductive and not so useful. If someone become unproductive for personal reasons, then someone else has to be the bad guy to get things right..... that's part of life.

Stop giving bad advice.

Obviously he is wrong.

And so do you.

Not implying that it's easy to accept/get over, but the silver lining is that I'd take a workplace "friendship" down the drain as an outcome of your situation over anything else that might negatively affect my work/career.

As someone else put it: be friendly with your co-workers, not friends with them.
