Are you in the Miami Bimmers group? We may know each other. Although now I'm on the dark side with a honda...

No I don't think so. I use to be on the Z4M group.

Yup this happened to me also. My second to last job, never got a raise in like 6 years, but the job was super easy, everyone was super laid back, was able to get one day a week to work from home and also had the time to work on my ecommece business on the side.
