Coming to the end of a financial taxi-way. Time to take off.

It's been a while since I've been on dz.com (not that I'm renowned or that anyone noticed) but I've been focusing on taking care of the standard personal business, blah blah whatever.

But I'm finally going to achieve my goal to get into skydiving, this year. Starting May 29th, I'll be working for Dell making $6/hr more than I do now. Besides all the neat benefits (which you get from day 1 btw.), this means that all the loose financial ends I needed to tie up before I begin throwing money and myself out of planes are going to be taken care of by the end of August. I'm down to my final $4k to pay off, but I will begin the training process when I get down to $2k. Training will be paid for in cash and I'll be able to cram as much of it in on the weekends as is reasonable.

Gah I'm just horribly excited. Being able to skydive has been my primary focal point and inspiration to better my financial situation and my life situation in general. I'm just glad to see the work coming to fruition. I already pushed it back 1 year, I would hate to have to do it again. But all lights show green at this point.

I can't wait

You have to pay for your training to get the job at dell?

Certs?

Skydiving training... not job training

They pay ME during job training

I do need to get my A+ though. I failed to get it in high school when it would have been easy, so I have to study up and take the test. However, they pay for that as well.

That is why I asked, it made no freaking sense.

Sorry I am a little slow on the uptake, I have be cramming for final exams all week and I am mentally fried.

As a DELLdo, what shall you be doing to deserve such a raise?
