Congratulations on the job offer! That's got to be an awesome feeling. So, it seems you had a nice little vacation.

Thanks! Yeah it's such a relief. Paperwork isn't done yet, I'm waiting on a few things from them but I can't imagine it falling through at this point. It was a nice little vacation, but I'll be happy to have money coming in again. I'm about to have to make house/truck payments which is going to get things pretty tight. Lol

Only worse time would've been during or literally right after I closed on the house. It's working out now, so that's all that matters. I'm fortunate enough to come out of it quickly, and with more pay than before. It's also not a position they're creating for me, its an existing position that is open. So no worries about being 6 months in and getting the boot due to overhead costs.

Yessir! I'm looking at sub boxes again. I'm leaning away from Mobile Toys for right now because my truck isn't a show truck, and leaning more towards Fox Acoustics. I've got an email out to Gately Audio about a box for my truck to see what I'm looking at there. This is what he did for a 2017 F-250, it's waiting for 6 6.5" subs.

Update on the job stuff. I'll set the start date once they have the drug screen results.
Insurance, the HDHP is $16.15 every two weeks, where the PPO is $142.15 every two weeks. Being just me and being dual insured (I'm 24 so I'm still on my parents till 26) I'll be going with the cheaper one, plus I rarely go to the doctor for anything. The coverage itself is really good ($2700 annual deductible, and insurance pays 70-80% after that) and they cover 100% of preventative medicine (check ups, vaccines, etc). Dental and vision are an extra like $7 every two weeks. Doing the HDHP also allows me to do an HSA which the company will contribute $600/year towards the account.
401K is a 100% match up to 3% then a 50% match for an additional 2%
PTO is accrued at 4hours per pay period which comes out to 3 weeks and 3 days in a calendar year. This is used for sick time, vacation, personal days, etc. The small place that is very close isn't going to be able to touch the benefits being offered so I'll be accepting the offer today.
