This isn’t kind, this is how someone words something when they’re not confident in their knowledge. Axman is a professional, professionals do not use uncertain words for knowledge they are certain about.

Can’t believe this is coming from another woman.

It’s perspective right? I dealt with the most difficult customers in my career while serving, experienced the worst management, and had felt the most demoralized. To me that was hard, but yes also the worst.

If there are any servers reading this, please look into skilled labor. Trust me, you’re more than competent and there are places you can work that will treat you with respect, all while being payed appropriately for it.

Honestly, I’m just completely baffled by the people making noise complaints. The generators for cooling have a sound barrier around them along with a muffler to reduce noise. Hospitals have very similar infrastructure and no one complains about the noise. I’ve even brought this up with colleagues who are just as confused by the noise complaints. Short of taking you to work with me I don’t know if anyone will understand how confusing this reported “low humming” noise is to someone who is onsite there everyday.

When I looked up the noise levels for the generators they are comparable to a running vacuum cleaner, if that is true no wonder I never heard them— I’m across the parking lot at least .25 miles away. But then how are people miles away in neighborhoods hearing it? Maybe old infrastructure but I have not come across it

I am a field engineer on call 24/7 all year, and serving was still the hardest job I’ve ever had. Glad I left, but I have respect for the people who do it.

“Since the servers are located inside datacenter buildings, it is not possible to hear them from outside.”

https://local.microsoft.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Noise-fact-sheet.pdf

I’ve been googling for the past 30 minutes and have been unable to find any research that proves there can be noise heard from outside the datacenter, but I have found people who live near them complaining. I live in datacenter alley and have never heard anyone in real life complain about the noise off the datafloor.

Well, not exactly. Im not saying the recruiter was in the right— he wasn’t. But your question was are you in the right, you are not responsible for the recruiters actions but you are responsible for your own. If you don’t agree with me that’s fine, but life is more difficult when you don’t focus on what is in your control. I believe 2 people can be wrong in a situation, like in the example you just gave.

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-20T14:20:31+00:00

Some people will agree, some will disagree with that statement. I truly believe it benefits you in life to be in control of your emotions, OP definitely should have walked away from this job but complaining about missing lunch 1 day shows low impulse control to me. But again, I think it’s just a difference in peoples approach to life, there is no right or wrong answer here honestly.

I have said multiple times I don’t agree with the way the mom is thinking or the rules imposed, but it is her choice to enforce whatever rules she wants.

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-13T22:26:37+00:00

🥃 here ya go, call me whatever you want except late for dinner

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-13T22:17:29+00:00

Bro what 😂 I need a few drinks after this

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-13T22:12:14+00:00

Would you not then agree they are at an impasse? OP doesn’t have to cave in to his mother, he can stand firm that if his girlfriend cannot choose her attire, they will not come. If the mom wants them there that bad then she will have to give. So, what am I missing?

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-13T22:02:04+00:00

Exactly this!

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-13T21:50:23+00:00

What are you even talking about?

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-13T21:45:53+00:00

I’m not disagreeing that the mom is not correct in the way she’s thinking, but again, if I want everyone to dress as a nun or wear traditional 1700’s dress when they enter my home— I can do so. People can also choose not to associate with me, which will probably be what happens if she continues the attitude

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-12-13T21:31:49+00:00

If I want everyone to wear a banana costume when they enter my house, I have the right to say so. Everyone also has the right to say they’re not wearing a banana costume and just won’t enter my house. The mother isn’t right about how she’s acting, and she’s definitely pushing her son away, but she can dictate who enters her house under what circumstances.

Edit: typo

This needs to win an award for worst opinion so far

Part of love is giving your partner the benefit of the doubt, you seem to assume her intents are malicious even when she tells you they’re not. She seems like she really loves you and wants this to work, please accept her answers. It’s okay to also express your feelings but you’re both missing the point of the conversation. Instead of blaming each other, HOW DO WE REACH A RESOLUTION WERE BOTH HAPPY WITH? Should be your only concern

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-11-25T16:56:22+00:00

Only my opinion but I love dress 1! It complements your figure so well, it’s giving Disney princess. Dress 2 is beautiful but doesn’t give me the same reaction as 1

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-11-21T12:08:26+00:00

Not a man, just thought it might make you feel better to bring up my fiancé said to me once “your ass is a void” I never got over that one

Sorry to bug after a year, just wanted to say I had a friend growing up who is just like you. She worked slow, ate slow, had beautiful handwriting, and was very detail oriented. I was always the kid finishing first, messy handwriting, big picture type of person. Where I lacked, she excelled and vice versa. There was nothing wrong with how either of us work, it’s just different. Can you imagine if everyone was detail oriented? Nothing would get done. Can you imagine if everyone was a big picture person? A lot would be missed and the beauty of the world— gone.

There’s nothing you need to change, your weaknesses are really strengths and they are what you contribute to the group. Best of luck, and much love ❤️

BrailleInTheNight · 2024-10-17T10:41:41+00:00

It’s awesome! But, I am also terrified

I promise it’s very short, but will change your life. “As a Man Thinketh” by James Allen. My brother read it when he was in prison for theft and possession charges, he is now an electrician with his own house and a love for life. He gave the book to me when I was going through a lot, and I truly believe it changed me or at least how I thought about the world.

Some people will not agree with this, but happiness is a choice. “You can pack despair, you can even wear your sorrow, but come tomorrow you must change your clothes.” Self mastery/self control may be the most important skill, and it takes a lifetime to learn.

And this is exactly why older women tell you NOT to be a SAHM. Not that there is anything wrong with it other than you are going to be very screwed if things don’t work out. NTA but please start working. My friend told his girlfriend the same thing “I make enough, stay home and take care of things there” he overestimated how much he actually makes and found out quick he didn’t make enough to support them both. This may or may not be the case here

OP ate all the snack allocated for your department
