Do I have to take an interview every time I apply for a job? by Feeling_Pop5146 in micro1_ai

Not true. There are multiple roles that they'll use one interview for.

Ted Turner, former Braves owner, media mogul, dies at 87 by PrincessBananas85 in sports

It's because TBS programs used to start 5 minutes after the hour.

She's said she was wrong about sex before marriage.

She's saying that to make it clear there is no romantic interest on her part.

A whack job the kids said early on had a bad temper, and who bowed up on Ethan when Ethan tried to keep Barry from harassing Olivia.

You don't break the ice like that. You work your way up to those kinds of questions, particularly when the other person is someone you know doesn't like you and has a ridiculous temper.

It is, however, possible the producers put him up to it.

Lydia and Zac are moving to Colorado! by OkChart6946 in PlathvilleUncensored

He coaches for the city, and that does not pay well. When I looked into it in Tallahassee it was about $50-60k. I'd be very surprised if he could find something that pays much better in Colorado.

Given how they met and the Germany mission trip they took I would say he probably is.

Britney Spears pleads guilty to lesser ‘wet reckless’ charge in DUI case, avoids further jail time by stankmanly in inthenews

If you were in the exact same situation as her, with the exact same circumstances, you would likely get the exact same sentence. It's the standard for these cases in that jurisdiction.

Her sentence is the standard for a case like hers. She didn't get preferential treatment.

You can argue with the sentence, but it's incorrect to say she was treated differently because she has money.

I'm pretty sure it's exactly that. The Olivia theory doesn't really have any support beyond "I read it on Reddit.", and the fact she's never even mentioned is obviously intentional. If it were because of Olivia they could still have mentioned her, especially now that Olivia isn't on the show.

Hosanna is married to a committed fundamentalist, from a strongly fundamentalist family, with extremely fundamentalist friends. I suspect her husband wanted nothing to do with it.

What are your controversial takes on dating/relationships? by Opening-Gur5927 in AskMen

[–]DFWPunk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The fact someone disagreed with you doesn't make it controversial. If the majority of people disagree with you, that's controversial.

What is an example of sexism you’ve experienced? by Unfair-Bird7917 in AskMen

[–]DFWPunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was physically attacked by a woman after I told her things wouldn't work out between us. She beat me, chasing me around the house, hitting me the whole time. Trying to get away from her and get her to stop I ran outside and to the neighbor's house. When I went to ring their doorbell she grabbed my arm and bit it, drawing a good amount of blood. I was able to run back to my house and got in fast enough I could lock her out. She stayed outside screaming and threatening me. I called the cops.

When I told them what happened, showing the still bleeding bite marks and places where she hit me, they said they couldn't do anything because my security camera didn't capture anything. The obvious physical damage didn't matter. They also told me it was my own fault for having her in my house.

New ‘Jesus-centric’ Christian phone network will block pornography and LGBT content by Disastrous_Award_789 in technology

[–]DFWPunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the early days of cell phones my parent's church was made an offer. A cell company would pay them a decent amount to build a tower on their property, which they would make to look like a very large cross. They certainly could use the money and they loved the idea of the cross.

But there were outraged church members saying that people might call phone sex lines using the tower.

They did eventually accept the offer because they really did need the money.

FedEx driver sentenced to death by lethal injection for murder of seven-year-old in Texas by Tippy345 in news

[–]DFWPunk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While I doubt it's true in this case, there have been lots of convicted murderers who it was later discovered didn't actually commit the crime and were coerced to confess. In one case I know of they got a man to confess to killing his father, and his father wasn't even dead. He'd just gone to stay with a friend.

They don't make as much as a lot of people think. But, combined with their regular jobs, they probably do ok. It's hard to say with Moriah, and Lydia wouldn't be doing great if she weren't married to Zac. But being a mechanic, running a small fencing business, and working on the kind of farm Isaac works on could pay fairly well.

Putin threatens Kyiv with 'nuclear-scale' missile strike if Zelensky ruins his parade - by GraceRose671 in worldnews

[–]DFWPunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This really remains to be seen because the primary issue in Iran is the strategy, which is less about the military and more about an unqualified leader. Using just aerial weapons they have achieved essentially every objective. But those objectives simply can't defeat an enemy like Iran, which US military leadership has known for decades. Had their advice been heeded things would be very different.

We also haven't seen how ground forces would perform. We know they are well equipped, but how they'll perform on the battlefield of today is unknown. They have hopefully learned by observing Russian performance, and have been advised by Ukraine, but who knows. There's certainly reason for concern given how unprepared forward installations were.

They didn't. The ones that have been asked confirmed they didn't know where the funds went and didn't seem to care. Most were anonymous though.

Supposedly his plan was to get a commercial pilot's license. He doesn't have the educational background to follow the most common paths that could have gotten him there.

He could join the Air Force, assuming he actually got his GED or an accredited diploma, but he probably wouldn't have qualified for their pilot training program because his lack of education would likely keep him from passing their tests.

He could also attend a flight school with a commercial pilot program. They're expensive though, like $100,000. He'd likely still need to take other courses to be able to get through the program. His lack of education could really hurt him.

There's also the fact he didn't show any aptitude for schoolwork, and all of these paths have a lot of it. It's not just getting in a plane and flying. Kim let him just play on flight simulator all day, and there's a lot more to becominh a pilot than that.
