DIS Dads The DIS Dad's Club IX - The Fastest Moving Thread Around

[stopher1]

Not to be overly competitive here...but of course, we are guys... but I just had to go searching for a moment. I remembered that there is a Dis Mom's Club thread, started in earlyish 2010 that I do believe several of our illustrious member's wives post in from time to time... well I just went over to see where they are and which version they were up to. Let me just say WOW. They've been posting for over a year now. And are up to page 50. A bit slower than us I'd say. We definitely are a chatty bunch - and witnessing today - I sure am a leader of the pack.

There's almost no point

Maybe we should put a sticky at the top of the page with links to the Disdad threads... so we only need to update once.

I wonder how long it would take to close THAT thread...

They are clearly much more responsible then we are...

Dads.....drum roll please.....I got the job....

Ok, let me elaborate, I got a verbal offer and was told that a proposal, including start date (either Mid-May or Early June) in the next week or so.

Salary is exactly where I was before losing my old job back in June.

We are extremely excited, but are holding back on full on celebrations until I have the written offer in hand, that and DW's boss approves her transfer to Orlando.

DW decided to scrap the Fed job in Indy due to concerns over future budgets. It just doesn't seem as secure as it once was.

So, I guess I may actually be taking on the role of DisDad Welcome Mat.

Mind you, while I should be looking into homes, I think I'll start by researching annual passes as well as planning our visits in a way as to not kill the magic by giving into temptation and going over board......

That is fantastic news.....the job news too

I am excited and happy for you and your family.

A word of advice....I would look at homes with at least four bedrooms, their are alot of us. And I am not sure if anyone wants to bunk with Barry and his supersonic cheese and bacon induced booms

if this does come through, we are planning on being at the parks around the holidays, so, with proper coordination, might be able to meet you guys out there one day.

Hey, if you guys chip in, say, sell all your DVC points and donate the earnings to a DisDad House, I'll be sure to buy the biggest, baddest house around with a small guest house in the back for you guys.

Congratulations Oscar!! I saw the announcement on facebook! Now, you will have an opportunity to meet more Dads than Christopher!

I couldn't access the disboards on my phone, Facebook was the only way to communicate while driving....shhh, don't tell local law enforcement...

Congrats oXar! Awesome news.

Also, good luck. We're all counting on you.

Thank you, thank you,

Great news in a down economy,

Congrats.

I originally lost my job in June of 2010 because of the down economy and haven't been able to find any work locally since. This firm does commercial work and is actually booming, unlike residential architecture that's been hit hard the last few years.

I'm glad that you clarified that....................... I was thinking you were one of the 40,000 new McDonald's employees.

Ten years ago, I was without a job for about a year. It sucks and I wouldn't wish it on anyone, including my nemisis.

Wait, I don't have a nemisis, so I do wish that on him!!!!!!!!!!!

I see you have your priorities lined up right.

A word of advice....I would look at homes with at least four bedrooms, their are alot of us. And I am not sure if anyone wants to bunk with Barry and his supersonic cheese and bacon induced booms

Since Barry is my nemesis, it would be my honor to padlock the door and stand guard while Barry stinks up the bedroom. (as long as I have frosty cold beverages)

Now, you will have an opportunity to meet more Dads than Christopher!

Stopher Thanks for the pics you posted today of OKW. They came in handy at dinner. We were talking about DVC resorts and thanks to you I had an intimate knowledge of the bathrooms at OKW.

hmmm there's not a good way to post that without it sounding weird.
