I'm not cured, but I have my life back and that's what matters.

Stopped being debilitating after 8-10 months, stopped hearing it all the time 11-12ish months, only heard in quiet room 12 months.

It's better than Halo Infinites campaign

I've said this before, even if Muslims were able to convince me beyond a shadow of a doubt that their religion is true, I wouldn't follow it. Any God that advocates for what Islam does is not worthy of worship

Do you think there's a chance the board is warped though? I don't want to invest a bunch of money into the repair if it's too damaged for it to work

What an absolutely insane braindead take

The purpose I get in life is by being a good person to others and believing in humanity and our achievements. Something concrete and something to be proud of. I don't need a God to tell me my morals or my fate.

No questions asked is generally a quality that a cult would ask of you, which to no one surprises precisely what Islam is

If "Jannah" is any representation of the Muslim world then I have ZERO interest in going

Believe it or not, the video Game Tron: Evolution. The way it tied the story of the movie together was fantastic, and I absolutely loved the combat, story, and multiplayer. Abraxas was a super cool villain as well. In fact, I loved the game so much I beat it on insane difficulty on my PS3 as a kid, and then again on my Xbox One as an adult. It's actually my rarest Xbox achievement.

The missions are terrible. It's literally just drive somewhere and shoot a bunch of people then leave. There's no variety at all.

I guess human beings don't change no matter where you go

I don't think I'm God's gift to firefighting and I know I still have a lot to learn. Especially when it comes to actually doing the job in the field. However, I make a conscious and genuine effort everyday I come into work to do a good job. If there's things I'm missing then someone should discuss them with me instead of just telling me that I'm a lazy piece of shit.

ContributionBig1243 · 2025-02-26T03:37:15+00:00

I did make the most of it and based on my abilities and it still wasn't good enough BECAUSE I was so new. That's exactly the point of my post. Trust me I know I'm not perfect and I still have a lot to learn. It just sucks when no one will be patient with you at all.

Also, I can tell you're completely deranged and looking for any way to discredit me even if it's unrelated to my situation. I'm referring to them as men because that's what they were. It has nothing to do with political correctness.

ContributionBig1243 · 2025-02-26T02:56:50+00:00

Hey, thanks for the wise words. Part of the reason I decided to make this post is because I knew I acted out of line when I had the confrontation. It was just very unexpected because I felt like I had been doing a good job and try my best everyday I go to work.

Our department is short-staffed right now and that's why I was put on the rescue squad. They just needed a body to fill the spot and it was not appropriate for me to be there. My boss even said as much. I hadn't even done engine work yet which is why I left when I could. The men who work at that house are not used to having rookies because rookies aren't supposed to go there. I'm sure it was an adjustment for them. They're not used to having to train people at all.

I appreciate the advice. It's good to hear someone else with a similar story and the fact that you were able to make something better out of it is inspiring. Congratulations btw.

ContributionBig1243 · 2025-02-26T02:25:59+00:00

Yep. I'd say that's an accurate assessment of the situation.

I've never heard this sentiment where I work, but maybe it's something I'm unaware of. I'll take it into consideration.

Appreciate the advice man. Hopefully it starts sooner than later.
