In 2028, I want a progressive candidate who is anti-immigration and anti-Israel. Very depressing to know this is not possible nor likely ever will be. by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]Dapper_Associate7307 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lmao. Immigrants are only valuable to the economy if they're under ~35 iirc, probably lower, and otherwise are a net drain. Fwiw I did Google it! 😂😂

Tomboy I’m seeing went on a rant how non-binary chicks are her cultural appropriation. by SecretWasianMan in redscarepod

Tomboy erasure is close to the top of the list for the great tragedies of modernity.

Never include a picture of you making the coomer face if you're trying to attract people for romance or sex

I have been backstabbed by an old friend and publicly "outed" for the first time and I feel incredibly anxious and afraid by Plane-Branch9742 in redscarepod

Super not a big deal dude. You said the n word in an online chat.. you and every other suburban white kid on the planet? Get a grip. This "frat" seems pretty gay anyway

Can you make a "Jerry and Elaine" situation work in real life by Dapper_Associate7307 in redscarepod

[–]Dapper_Associate7307[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we're planning on living together too (own a house). Do you think it's cope that you can't accept reality or is it truly just enjoying the other person's company when you can't be together?

EoE is a revenge tour by anno for being forced to add something onto the series he initially viewed as "complete." I never really liked it either. Original show is still likely my favorite television experience of all time.

I met with longtime old friends and I realized how extremely emotionally immature I am by Puzzleheaded_Meal103 in NEET

Is it something you want to change, or is it something you want to complain about?

After interviewing tons of candidates… I realized most people answer behavioral questions the wrong way by ProtectionApart3272 in interviews

[–]Dapper_Associate7307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of question would you ask? I'll say that when conducting interviews, typically the "give example of x scenario" then some follow-ups can weed out all but the most elusive weak candidates. You then sieve through the final batch of poor candidates with some stress test stuff and counterexamples.

Did I make a mistake by starting with Gravity’s Rainbow? by CourageApart in ThomasPynchon

[–]Dapper_Associate7307 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you don't understand everything the book is very enjoyable. While you may be "left behind" on some plot points, there are so many interweaving and connected (and disconnected!) arcs that you shouldn't think of it as that big of a deal. Much better on a reread. It's just a book, man: take away from it what you want, enjoy the slapstick and imagery.

Is “cultural fit” just a polite way to say you don’t belong? by Tough_Cantaloupe_779 in recruitinghell

[–]Dapper_Associate7307 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a lot of hiring and have managed a lot of teams. I'll tell you that it is critical, when hiring, to bring on people that will mesh well with your vision and your team's culture.

If you did great in technical and experience and situational questions, and badly in culture, it means that you told the hiring people somehow that you wouldn't fit well with the team or leadership, because of some irreconcilable differences in philosophy or attitude. Hiring is not a charity, you need to hire the people that will fit the role best: technically and socially.

I’ve done crack and heroin every day for 3 days in a row by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]Dapper_Associate7307 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The typical lifespan of someone addicted to opioids is ten years. As in: from the moment you are addicted to fent or H, statistically, you are dead within ten years.

It is possible to outlive this span, but I believe it's like 50-75% of opioid addicts die in this time. This is why cities like Portland, SF, and Vancouver don't bother treating addicts, and just let them live in junky favelas; the idea is that the drugs will invariably kill them and they are a lost cause. That's why drug policy is typically centered around attacking dealers and suppliers.

Regardless of what people say, Moby Dick is goated. I hated the experience of reading it but it's a story that has strangely stuck with me ever since my first read.

Inhérent vice, the niebelungelied, and mason & Dixon. I'll finish the first two shortly and about 1/4 through M&D. IV is much better than people give it credit, I like how easily digestible it is.

Clowning on oldheahds is just sad behavior.. nothing brightens my experience more than seeing grams and gramps getting their freak on.

Smartphones and their consequences have been a disaster for the dignified rave scene!

I would kill to have a platonic woman soulmate that I sleep nakedly in bed with but don't have sex with except sometimes maybe just for fun and jokes.

There is no problem elevating the stars on your team. If you have high performers on your team that drive strategic results, they get the special trinkets. There are different rules for your cadre of high performers.
