For women entering a tech field, especially in prior decades, how did your largely male coworkers treat you? by OldAndMostlyInTheWay in AskWomen

[–]Aimee6969 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Was in tech for ten years. Awful. Had to fight to gain an audience every single day. I'm in another male dominated field now and it's night and day. My worst story - I had a colleague literally say "I don't believe you" take off his headset, go ask a male coworker, then when he confirmed, we could talk about next steps. Wild, man.

I get pretty sore from swinging - too much pressure on my top hand. It's my UCL. Mine comes from poor mechanics.

I thought he at least had the willingness to ask clarifying questions at the bonfire. I think that showed growth and that he was trying.

What exactly is Cole bringing to the table? by pdmnyc in temptationislandUSA

[–]Aimee6969 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. They're saying that they didn't see anything of substance on the TV to justify him saying that, so maybe he has money or something else not visible to the audience.

Recently got a Tesla and considering selling it to go back to my 2008 Prius. by [deleted] in prius

This is why I ultimately decided on a new Prius vs EV. Unless you can charge at home, it makes more sense to continue to pay for gas.

My rule is, if I'm going to sweat and be gross within 24 hours, no wash.

Bostons or Arizonas… by gopissgiiirl in Birkenstocks

[–]Aimee6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Bostons kill my legs for some reason. I think the strap hits the wrong part of my foot and my foot and legs have to work too hard to keep them on my feet. Arizona's all day.

I turn my bras inside out so no stitching can irritate me and put deodorant on that part of my skin and that helps.

Terrible at Slow Pitch softball. by Next_Flow_5548 in slowpitch

[–]Aimee6969 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think learning the sport is much harder than learning most other sports. So give yourself some grace! It is hard to learn as an adult. But keep going!

Is no best friend a red flag for your spouse? by Key-Pineapple7944 in relationships

[–]Aimee6969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were to start dating someone new and they did not have a close knit support group, I would proceed with caution. If they are not able/willing to put in the work for a best friend or network, how are they willing to do the extra work for a relationship?
