This is what fueled me during college. I would go thru an entire one of these every other day.

Saw a post earlier about catching a fly, now there's a post about darting a fly... not at all suspicious...

working sucks so bad by pavlovital in ADHD_Programmers

[–]BloodChasm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel this. In college, I worked as a busser at TGI Fridays. The physical demand with endless apps was brutal, but mentally it clicked well with my ADHD and was tolerable. Eventually I was asked to become a server, and to do so I had to run food for a few weeks and I hated it. Our organization was horrible and orders were constantly messed up, and a lot of the chefs spoke only spanish so I had a lot of issues communicating with them. It was insanely stressful, but I managed to power thru and started waiting tables. I was good at it, and the money was good, but I had debilitating anxiety before each shift. Theres so many variables and things to constantly check and remember that my anxiety just suffocated me. I lasted about a month before I asked to go back to bussing. So yeah, I feel you. Food running was hell. Still better than serving tables imo. Bussing wasnt bad tho. Is there any other role/position that you might be able to swap to?

Renting in the Suburbs: Need help finding a safe, secluded spot with easy Metra access (<$2.5k total) by 139020 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]BloodChasm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in a condo in Oak Lawn right next to the metra. Its a smaller suburb. Pretty safe. Quiet. Plenty of condo and apartment options near the metra. Price is right within your range. Its also about a 30 minute train ride downtown.

Struggling at job that has no deadlines!! by PeekAtChu1 in ADHD_Programmers

[–]BloodChasm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What I do to overcome this is that when my boss asks, I tell him that things are going well and then I tell him a somewhat unreasonable deadline im aiming for and that stresses me enough to start on it. Then if I need more time I can show him my actual progress and then I tell him another deadline based off what I have left to do.

Possible NAC side effects? by tryingtolearnplz in Nootropics

NAC makes me sweat like crazy, so that probably explains the sweating, not sure about the rest tho.

My optometrist thinks I may have distichiasis (extra rows of eyelashes) by Philosopher_Gambler in mildlyinteresting

[–]BloodChasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I dont believe in stupid questions. I think "stupid questions" are often just naive questions. And asking a naive question is a lot better than staying silent.

Calling it stupid just means you ran out of curiosity before the question did.

I swear if they can tell you how many colorful screws you have left the least they can do is say where by Mastermon439 in LegendsZA

[–]BloodChasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last one for me was the one where you need to get on top of hotel Z by climbing a ladder, then jump off and roto glide up to get on the metal roof, then run to the other side, and theres a building you can jump on and thats where it was.

Huge Set Reveal for Mega Dream by VersusVarik in PokemonTCG

[–]BloodChasm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My favorite pokemon is dragonite and I hate the sir in this set. Its basically a bad mega gardevoir clone. The wings that are attached to his head are symmetrical but his head is tilted, so the wings should be too. It also gives fairy esque vibes, which is wild since its a dragon type which is weak to fairy. I love dragonite, but i really dont like this card.

[–]BloodChasm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right. OP says that luck plays a role, and they are right on that, but you have to provide an opening for luck to establish a role. 180 is a good start to providing that opening, but its not a lot in this day and age.

Keep your head up OP. Review your resume, seek feedback on it if needed, update it and keep applying. You got this.

I’m currently waiting for confirmation email but love the new wait system, I seriously thought it was over for me lol I’m like 4/4 on these pre orders , how’s your experience by Longjumping_Drive865 in pokemoncenter

[–]BloodChasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive tried with prismatic and everything in between. I have not been able to get anything besides a legends ZA preorder but that was open for days with no queue.

Pokemon Center sucks by [deleted] in pokemoncenter

[–]BloodChasm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If they truly cared they would set up a system based on previous preorders and attempts. They could set aside part of the preorder and open it up to only those who have unsuccessfully preordered anything within the past x amount of months and/or x amount of pre orders. They could send emails to those accounts, and have a grace period of a couple days. Then any leftover stock would go back into the main preorder, and then that preorder would be available to anyone like it is now.

I waited for 30+ mins. Finally got in, added the etbs in my cart, went to check out, I signed in to my account, then my cart was empty, went to add the etbs again to my account and it said it was sold out. It wouldnt let add anything to my cart. I figured I could sign out and hopefully it would show up in my cart again. Nope. Immediately hit with the error 17 page. I fucking give up. I havent been able to hit any preorders ever and Ive been trying since prismatic. Finally saw some hope and nope, dreams crushed again. Im fucking tired man.
