Friendly conversastion I just had.

"Hey man I reached Gold!" 
"Congrats!" 
"You know you could be in gold too if you just played more, I know you can!" 
"Yeah but I have work and school." 
"Well, bummer you should've played earlier!" 
"Yeah I should've. 9 Day shifts right?"
"Yeah lol, anyways try again next year. I know you can do it!"
"I hope so lol."

(Tries not to cry, A LOT)
