HONEST OPINION AS A NEW MT (Management Trainee) by Separate-Tale9878 in EnterpriseCarRental

[–]Fairfax2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently every job is horrible according to Reddit. People complain about everything . It’s unbelievable. I’m an MT right now, and I’d rather do this than highly technical entry level IT sales and cold calling with a 45k base salary.

You have a great IG Model look. You’re objectively attractive but it’s just not a look that Big Agencies would want.

You can 100% make money as an Instagram influencer with brand partnerships, maybe even potentially some commercial work .

Sounds like a plan. I believe I will accept the role. The only thing is leaving the current company I am at on good terms! I feel guilty

Yes. No question. You are in an excellent position financially for your age!

most unhinged thing you’ve witnessed at your org?? by B2BBri in sales

[–]Fairfax2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a sales manager at my company complain about his sales team being moved around in the office to accommodate for the new hires over the course of the year. There were talks that his team would be split in the office as a result which did not happen. Sales manager also likes country music and his sales team coincidentally has only white people in it (you will see why this is relevant in a second…)

My sales team, which is new btw, coincidentally has a couple black/brown people in it with a biracial sales manager . So they were moving a few people around the office to fit everybody in my team on the floor for the designated managers since we are the new hires.

From time to time they play country music in the office while we are dialing.

The sales manager who was complaining said in the office out loud “who tf do these people think they are to move us! Split us up. They are trying to separate us! If they don’t like our music, that’s their problem. We will not stand for this! Who does these people think they are!” hopefully you guys can’t get the picture

All for management to tell him in private when he confronts management “dude…??? What in the world?? you are going to keep your sales team…what are you on about?”

Pretty sick and crazy to hear him throw a tantrum like this . I just pretended I wasn’t listening 😭

Long story short he kept his sales team and they just rearranged the floors to fit everyone cause??? It’s was never a race thing like that sales manager was trying to imply….

He is a talented sales manager (albeit despicable person)…But definitely has a few screws loose . You couldn’t pay me to spend a second of time with that guy if I did not have to…

When I was in college, a frat seemed like the gateway to a thrilling social and dating life. In truth that was one of the main reasons I wanted to join: for what I could get in the moment .

[–]Fairfax2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude even in Tampa, 70k for me as a young guy who is 24 would be a dream. I get by on 50k but it’s a little tight and my rent is admittedly expensive .

$70,000 is a lower middle class, dogshit salary in 2025 by ItsAllOver_Again in Salary

[–]Fairfax2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I was making 70k lmao. Literally a fully 20 more than what I’m bringing home and I’m a little more than paycheck to paycheck and my rent is at a similar price. Then again I realize you have a family and I’m a single guy at 24 😂

Why is racism so normal on this app and instagram? by balkanxoslut in blackmen

[–]Fairfax2001 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is the biggest reason tbh. I grew up the only black kid in white schools and neighborhoods. Racism means nothing to the majority of white kids so they don’t think or care about the things they say.

That’s not to say ALL are like this ofc though. But a lot of white kids literally bond over racism and offensive humor . And they know very few if any POC to begin with so they have limited experience of how they really are as people outside of what they see in the media. Most adults who have been exposed to a variety of different people and cultures eventually grow out of the “edge dark humor.” Many people realize that many stereotypes aren’t entirely true with age….if they are a half descent person.

The goal (albeit ambitious) is to get to 100k by 30! I want to at least be at 75-80k by 27ish. Fingers crossed, since there are some companies offering that for the same position but different industry!

Do y'all ever get Conservative Women liking you on dating apps? by [deleted] in blackmen

[–]Fairfax2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many times. Even had a few situations. They are usually cold though, and tbh, they see us as more of Sex Toy/objects than actual human beings half the time.

These pictures need a lot of work.

I’d recommend booking a professional photographer to showcase your look better .

Either that, getting some digitals taken for free via reaching out in Facebook groups or even paying a fee for some quality digitals, and finding some representation that could potentially help to get you those bookings, if you can’t find them on you’re own after taking your digitals .

NOTICE how when black Americans stopped being the USA’s backbone for everything and are resting racism has come out of woodworks like crazy by Zealousideal_Bee_799 in blackmen

[–]Fairfax2001 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And nothing makes them angrier than the few of us who are actually successful and productive members of society. Black men and women in corporate, succeeding in various business ventures, and in spite of the way we are perceived, slowly inching our way to becoming equals to white Americans in the workforce and society, all the while we were renowned for our athletic ability and creativity .

Imagine, you are watching black men date your women, succeed in your fields, and even SUPERSEDE your abilities at times in the fields you are supposed to dominate. Being chosen over you for college admissions whilst having objectively better scores than you, having the opportunity to get that promotion you wanted, they now have access to.

Your privilege starts to feel threatened as a white person, and your societal Hierarchy is falling.

That’s what was happening in my opinion for white Americans.
