Hey @Ogrezilla - Arcane S2 E4

Ha ha, I was right. Jinx is not a full on baddie. She's turning into an anti-hero, wanker.
I can confidently say I didn't see pretty much any of s2 going how it has :laugh:

Finished all of act 2.

I feel a little vindicated.

:laugh:
1. This is definitely gone a way that I think playing the games actually made it harder to predict what's going to happen :laugh:
2:
I'll be pedantic to not be fully wrong, I'm not above this :laugh:. I'd say she is on a path to be a redeemed villain and may become an anti-hero, but in season 1 she was a full-on villain imo not an anti-hero.
3:
We'll see how everyone deals with this newest round of trauma :laugh:she could certainly go back to being a villain at this point. I'm very curious to see if Jinx and Cait can ever really coexist for a length of time.

I probably mentioned this but I don't think I ever gave legit confirmation: I started my new job about 5 weeks ago and I'm absolutely loving it. I'm doing much more design work rather than just running models and my manager is legitimately great. I also know I'm making a great first impression, because I'm already presenting analysis work a month after starting.

I'm officially leaving Seattle this Saturday, gonna spend a week in Pittsburgh and then relocate down to Rockville, MD.

Congrats. Moving and new jobs are stressful but you think you were happy to be moving back to this side of the country at least right? Good to hear the job itself is good too.

I'm a year into my new job and it's great. It's hard to overstate the importance of a good manager/team. On paper I probably would prefer my previous job / responsibilities but in practice its not even close, the new one is a million times better. It's satisfying to hear that the guy that came in and drove half the company away has now finally been let go from my previous job; too little too late.

100% yes on moving back to the east coast. I have basically everything packed already and my PODs is getting delivered today. The concern I have is flying with my pets on Saturday, but I think I have everything for that sorted out.

My company gave me a $15k signing bonus to pay for relocation and I think my total relocation costs are coming in at around $10k. After taxes there won't be much left, but it's at least nice I'm not paying out of pocket to move.

I have become pretty disgruntled with Seattle in general so I'm super happy to be leaving, and the fact that I'm moving to the DC metro area (an area I can see myself staying in) makes it much better. I can actually get a house for $400k in Maryland, rather than needing like $800k for Seattle.
