    Shift work

    I say go with the job that makes you happy for less money. Unless you have a loan shark threatening to break your legs then go with the former...do you have a loan shark threatening to break your legs? i told the loan shark i started skydiving... he told me he would pay for me to get these preformace toggles that had an extra 3 ft of slack. he said that they would make my flare much smoother ;) i just don't want to accept something and regret the latter

    Shift work

    i got offered a job that would pay very well but the job sucks and is shift work at a desk all day five days a week. then, igot offered a job that is awesome with my own hours but the pay is less than half the other job. i know that being happy at work is impotant but to what extent if the shitty job with good pay secures my future but might drive me nuts. just wondering the communities thoughts
  3. so , did some thinking about this situation and found a solution. someone already has our answer. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/click_online/9712128.stm
  4. i'm in the military and take my iphone everywhere (including falling through a building during the tohoku earthquake) and i'd have to say the otterbox is great. i like my iphone 4 and but the 3s felt much more durable, in my opinion
  5. The party will hold in the garden, if the weather permits.
  6. It's where ya hide your porn in the 21st century! by far the best discription of an external hard drive ever. now, what is a solid-state drive? p.s. i'd be annoyed but if someone else found it they could have plastered your personal info everywhere and kept the hard drive. so annoyed to the point of talking to yes, pissed not so much
  7. Military is why im here. Guam dz if i can get info is where i decided for may 11-20 just looking for prices on jumps. Got a friend that is going to guam to visit and invited me to come along Oh no, guam is not for sport skydivers. :( hmmmmmmmm wtf non uspa as well oh well anyone know a good inexpensive dz? Well im sure everone knows one or two but i want to make my first venture from the nest epic so, if anyone wants to have an epic skydiving trip let me know
  8. Jump ticket is 3000 yen my bad japanese translation is still hard for me
  9. Lol, i said the same thing. I plan on going to the states for a month of jumping later this year. I just need to find where i want to go. Im thinking seven hills in wisconsin just because its close to home but also i want to venture to random locations of the beaten path.
  10. yeah thats about right. main reason i only have 10 jumps but i just started march 11th. i don't know these people have become my family. my dz is fujioka DZ. from day one everyone wanted to help me and teach me and shoot the shit. and beers\ and food is always being handed to you. overall, the experience pays for itself to me. there are only three uspa dz's in japan i think.
  11. my aff course was 223,000 yen which is super expensive i hear but i wanted to get it done here. with gear rental after aff each jump is 9500 yen. 6500 i think is the jump ticket at fujioka dz
  12. Hello, im new to jumping and to the site. i am currently in japan and love jumping here. i have a goal to begin wingsuit training by the end of this year. Blue Skies ;)
