Hi, how's your week going?

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hey mate, my week's been great. I've just been brushing up on my Excel skills for my upcoming internship.

How's your week been?

Not great, got my first speeding ticket over the weekend. It was a tiny town in the middle of a highway. I strongly suspect that town gets a lot of its income from speeding tickets in a section where they rapidly lower the speed limit to 25 (4 lane road).

So I'm still seething about that.

25mph speed limit? That is incredibly low. Definitely something shady going on there.

What do you do for a living?

[–] odium@programming.dev 1 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

Yeah, 25, all the way from 65.

I'm a data engineer.

How's that going for you? Are you satisfied with your job?

[–] odium@programming.dev 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's been good so far. The best part is that it's remote.

Oh that's the jackpot. How long have you been doing it for?

[–] odium@programming.dev 1 points 21 minutes ago

About a year

I'm from Arkansas. Every small town on the highway is a speed trap. Although they haven't seemed to care as much since the pandemic

This place was just across the border from y'all, in Oklahoma.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

So probably the same shit. Sorry you have to deal with that
