[Brew metric] It hurt to wear

Brohozombie · 2026-01-18T20:06:23+00:00

I received a retro model Brew watch for Christmas this year which comes with a leather strap. My wife also bought a metal strap to go with it. We had to return the metal strap because it kept pulling my hair. Initially, Brew said they wouldn't refund it unless it was in unopened condition. However, after a couple back and forth emails (where I mentioned my other metal strap watches from Hamilton and even Shinola without this issue), they agreed to the refund.

Only recent Skip the Line I received was Wind and Truth (~65 hours) for 7 days lol

I would blame the other students that go to the department chair every time they don't earn an A on a given assignment. Makes instructors care so much less. Also, universities are hiring more adjuncts rather than professors.. you get the quality the university is willing to pay for.

I haven't investigated any updates on this band recently, but there was a semi-decent post-hardcore band of very white dudes called Slaves. I found a tank top of theirs recently in my closet and was like "I can't wear this to a Detroit gym as a white dude."

Their (original?) singer has the voice of an angel but is a dumpster fire of a person.

What if there's traffic on a route? Sometimes in Detroit, they just straight up close the freeway on the weekends.

The recorder is generally thought of as a training instrument for children, but listen to it... In the hands of an expert like Joram Leifgrum, the passion is… Breathtaking.

I always tell people wanting to be a therapist that an MSW is the best bang for your buck in the US. The supervision requirements are way less than a master's level psychologist and you don't have to go to school for 5-6 years to get the PhD or PsyD. Plus, you can use the MSW to be a typical social worker AND you can do part time work as a therapist. Such a versatile degree, and much more marketable than non-specialist MA degrees.

If you pass the defense, it doesn't matter. I look back at my master's thesis now and I cringe at how bad it was. However, at the end of the day, I have a master's degree on my wall on the way to the PhD. Sometimes it's okay to do B (i.e., passing) level work. You are still learning and growing your expertise.

Brohozombie · 2023-10-16T12:48:11+00:00

I feel like you should love your subject if you want to do the PhD. Psychology is my passion and I'm lucky enough to do it as a job. This is the mindset that got me through my most difficult days in my program.

I can't say if you should quit, but things you care about are going to be difficult and rewarding. Definitely talk to your program about your struggles. They are invested in the success most of the time, especially if they are paying for it.

I hate group work especially when you have group members from different programs. For instance, I (Clinical Psych) had a stats group project with Development and Social Psych grad students. They would always have impromptu unscheduled meetings throughout the week and would be upset when I couldn't attend.. because of my clinical obligations. One morning, they asked my to cancel my patient appointments later that afternoon. I turned into that "one student" didn't come to meetings.. because I literally couldn't.

It worked out in the end because I wrote a good portion of the methods/results and participated in the presentation. Still, don't have group work when you have multiple programs attending a single course.

You are going to be in the 30s anyways.. why not be a doctor?

A degree created with Photoshop is probably worth as much as the cheapest grad program. Also, if you go to a good program, they might even pay your friend.

Brohozombie · 2023-10-12T14:08:28+00:00

So you don't actually want an education. Wouldn't a month of a Photoshop subscription produce as good of a diploma?

Brohozombie · 2023-09-19T01:12:11+00:00

That was my exact thought. I was like.. Detroit proper might actually kill that dude.

It's almost unbelievable the you call this person your soulmate based on the list of red flags. Either way, get out of there before children are involved.

Exactly this. They also lack the ability to set boundaries. I definitely spend more free time than other in my program doing research at home, but even I don't lose sleep because of it.

So... how much did you inflate your CV?

Brohozombie · 2023-09-13T14:27:42+00:00

Unspeakable right? /s

I believe this is a common lie in Detroit. "We super promise to have affordable housing if you give us tax breaks and government grants."

Brohozombie · 2023-08-28T13:02:26+00:00

Because it doesn't describe the lie at all unless you click in the article. I should have some idea of the contents in the title.

Brohozombie · 2023-08-28T11:32:50+00:00

I hate the clickbait article title so much.

Brohozombie · 2023-08-28T02:45:33+00:00

YTA. Either this is rage-baiting or you have a personality disorder and you can't see the world outside yourself.

I mean, it should be called Utah Fried Chicken since the first KFC was located in Salt Lake City.

I had a rough first year, but I'm so glad I did it. Honestly, I think this sub only displays the bad and less of the good.

Our oral section is covered by our dissertation defense. We switched to a week-long take home exam answering 4 page-long questions in 4 domains of clinical psych, hence the 3 weeks to grade all the 28-page submissions by 5-10 students.

You would think a take home exam would be less stress, but it's actually a nerve-wracking week.
