Oh, and I can’t believe I forgot to post…
I got another pay raise today.
4% as opposed to the 8% I got about 9 mos. ago, but, I’ll take it…if only they gave me 8% pay raises every 9 months…!!!!! :hilarious:
How many pay raises would you need for a new Disney Trip? ;)

Also, great that your job really appreciates your effort, knowledge and friendship. (I also envy the food shared lol)

I could never take y’all’s winters up that way.
I can say that with the summers you have in Texas.

I had problems keeping fluids in 100 degree days at times growing up despite drinking a lot of fluids. 100 degree days are not my type of fun even though I handle heat better now than I did growing up. Wisconsin usually does not get a lot of 100 degrees in a year and that is something I am happy with.

My dad does not like Florida or your type of a Summer in Texas. He does not like humidity at all despite he used to work outside due to the nature of the job he had.

I understand that many people find anything over about 90 degrees very hot.
We’ve been back in Texas for 45+ years now, so we’re pretty acclimated. My DWifey was raised in colder climates, and never wants to live in one again. Her Pop was in the Air Force with SAC. She was born in Minot, North Dakota, and also lived in Wyoming, Montana, and Germany.
Here in Central Texas it gets hotter than Central Florida, but, it’s more humid in Central Florida, so it’s kinda’ a wash.
Houston, on the other hand, gets hot as heck, and also has the humidity, as it’s down near the Texas Gulf Coast…place is like a sauna in the summer…!!!!! :hilarious:
In ‘11 we had 90 100 degree or above days, for a record.
Also (I googled it), our average first 100 degree day occurs on June 29th, so we’re waaayyyyyyy ahead of that this year…lookin’ like it’s gonna’ be a hot summer of ‘22…!!!!!!! :joyfull::hilarious:;):)

Although I've never been to a Buc-ees down South (I've only flown to Orlando, and taken a bus or taxi to the hotel), I've heard from others here, and in other threads, that it's a popular place for motorists to stop for gas, etc.

I read that the company is also noted for (supposedly) the cleanest restrooms in the industry, and they have some funny advertising. From the article I saw: "The company uses billboards along the highway to advertise its facilities, including "Top Two Reasons to Stop at Buc-ee's: Number 1 and Number 2" and "Rest-Rooms You Have to Pee to Believe." :hilarious:
