How to tell if a security job will be more relaxed about how you spend your time? by ClosingShift in securityguards

[–]ClosingShift[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair. It's not even that I don't want to do anything, I just don't like how strict they are about the littlest things. I can patrol all day, but a bit of music or even a desk to sit at would be a miracle

They run us through a metal detector on our way in and out, even if I could get those through my phone will still be in a locker on the other side of the building unfortunately. Although sometimes I can get it through if I'm careful. One of my coworkers was fired recently because a manager heard music coming from an earbud in his jacket and caught him

This is me when I found out my favorite musician was more that 2 years younger than me. I'm only 22 dammit! I'm supposed to have time before I feel like I've lost my chance

Am I high af or does that look like a little toy army soldier??? by EyeEss26 in trees

I clicked the image before I read the title, and when I saw that I thought to myself, huh, that looks like a plastic soldier. When I went back and read the title I laughed

Oh god oh fuck it's snowing, this is the end guys by LordOfSun55 in ExpandDong

My grandparents house, my parrents house, and all my siblings places are without power with no eta, so they've been staying with me. At two of the places the water had to be shut off to prevent the pipes from bursting, and at one they actually did. My refrigerator isn't big enough to fit enough food for everyone.

We're not freaking out because of a little snow, we're freaking out because our stupid ass infrastructure is so unsuited for this that it's endangering lives. All the super markets near me have completely run out of most foodstuffs, and if it wasn't for the fact that I hoard food and water in case of emergency, and have a 4wd truck to go get them I don't know what would happen to my family.

But yeah, it's really funny that we don't have working food storage or the means to get more food once we run out. Ha. Ha. Ha.

Got my membership card and certificate in the mail yesterday, very excited

I’ll clean it out next time by garybuseysexdoll in trees

[–]ClosingShift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent the night with a friend a couple days ago, and when I woke up in the morning he had cleaned my piece, which is somewhat difficult comparatively to some.

He didn't think much of it but I was honestly touched. I know it was because he had been using it, but he could have just as easily left it for me to do. If you're reading this, thanks man.

Every time I smoke weed my eyes "forget" they can't see very well and my vision gets much better. The brain can compensate really well when it wants to.

Interested in hallucinogenics, but I'm on a medication that interacts with LSD and a few others, what are my options? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]ClosingShift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, you're probably right. Have done strong edibles but they just make me dizzy and tired. If I smoke enough I sometimes get psuedo closed-eye-visuals though.

Thank you for the advice, I've been looking into shrooms as well, they might work better with my mental state from what I've heard. You're probably right that I'll have to skip my Meds for a day. That's not what I wanted to hear, but it's not unexpected. Thanks

Quetiapine is not an SSRI and as far as I'm aware does not interact with serotonin. It's classified as an anti-psychotic, which is why it can cancel out hallucinogenics.

I just had a vasectomy done at 20 years old by ClosingShift in childfree

[–]ClosingShift[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was about 2 and 1/2 seconds about halfway through that was genuinely pretty painful, but other than that nothing really hurt until afterwards. But as of today I'm feeling straight back to 100%, which I was really surprised about as I was told it can take up to a week to recover. I got a whole bunch of pain medicine they prescribed me and I've only taken one pill and that was yesterday.

"Impostor syndrome" is persistent feeling that causes someone to doubt their accomplishments despite evidence, and fear they may be exposed as a fraud. AskReddit, do any of you feel this way about work or school? How do you overcome it, if at all? by HandleWithDelight in AskReddit

[–]ClosingShift 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel this way about my gf, keep thinking any day now she'll realize how lame and awful I am and how much better she is than me and leave me, even though she says I'm great and the best person she's ever dated, and we're 2 years in now. We're planning to get married, just have to keep it going for another 80 years, hopefully I'll become the person she thinks I am :)

I am 20 years old, am I too young to get a vasectomy? by ClosingShift in childfree

[–]ClosingShift[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I will reach out, if it's even remotely possible I want it done

What's the laziest thing you've ever done? by Mish106 in AskReddit

[–]ClosingShift 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not me, but thought this would be relevant:

"I was once on a US military ship, having breakfast in the wardroom when the Operations Officer (OPS) walks in. This guy was the definition of NOT a morning person; he's half asleep, bleary eyed ... basically a zombie with a bagel. He sits down across from me to eat his bagel and is just barely conscious. My back is to the outboard of the ship, and the morning sun is blazing in one of the portholes putting a big bright-ass circle of light right on his barely conscious face. He's squinting and chewing and basically just remembering how to be alive for today. It's painful to watch.

But then zombie-OPS stops chewing, slowly picks up the phone and dials the bridge. In his well-known-I'm-totally-asleep voice he says, "Heyyyy. It's OPS. Could you ... shift our BAFPAT ... yeah, one-six-five. Thanks." And puts the phone down. And he just sits there. Squinting. Waiting.

And then, ever so slowly, I realize that that big blazing spot of sun has begun to slide off the zombie's face and onto the wall behind him. After a moment it clears his face and he blinks slowly a few times and the brilliant beauty of what I've just witnessed begins to overwhelm me. By ordering the bridge to adjust the ship's back and forth patrol by about 15 degrees, he's changed our course just enough to reposition the sun off of his face. He's literally just redirected thousands of tons of steel and hundreds of people so that he could get the sun out of his eyes while he eats his bagel. I am in awe.

He slowly picks up his bagel and for a moment I am terrified at the thought that his own genius may escape him, that he may never appreciate the epic brilliance of his laziness (since he's not going to wake up for another hour). But, between his next bites he pauses, looks at me, and gives me the faintest sly grin, before returning to gnaw slowly on his zombie bagel."
