The other acceptable option is taking the new job while doing 1099 work for the previous place at triple your previous rate.

tehinternet posted:Young blood spittin’ wisdom The second best day in the life of a boat owner is the day you buy your boat. The best day is the day you sell it. I had the best of it though. Had a friend who has a boat, and I worked at a boating store, so I would buy him poo poo with my staff discount and he would take me out fishing.

If you must use a boat, rent or borrow one. It will always be cheaper and less soul destroying.

Having a small sailboat is pretty neat, actually. With good wind I could make it to Ærø and back over a weekend, and I wouldn't need to interact with a single electronic device on the entire trip.

I learned how to sail on a 1980s 29' mamba, we didn't even have a chart plotter until the last few years, so we used paper charts. I still prefer using paper charts for route planning and plotting positions.

(as soon as they have that fallback plan you get cut because now they know you're disloyal) If you really want to turn the screws offer to contract for whatever widget they need you to support and charge a huge fee for it.

Echoing what everyone else has said, they will drop you like a sack of bricks the moment they can do it without major negative consequences. They are fighting to keep you because of said looming consequences. Do not entertain their counteroffers. They could've paid you this much all along and actively chose not to

A jonboat seems like the only acceptable boat because it has pretty much nothing to go wrong except maybe welding in a piece of a cookie pan if it rusts. Just don't take it out onto the open water like that idiot in Florida did and nearly died last year.

they were really popular where I grew up because they're really easy to load up with gear and still have a shallow enough draft to not get caught on a submerged sand bar

I had a square stern Coleman brand canoe years ago that was bad rear end. Put a little trolling motor on it and I could toot around wherever fishing or pull it up and paddle along easily enough.

One of the common arguments against it is that they'll end up tearing out parking garages from downtown areas and putting in dense buildings. Yes, exactly.
