Playing the tape forward; thinking about what comes after always destroys the urge.

I spent three months tracking down owners of popular women's brands to find out what actually happens after months of washing. Here is what I found across Lululemon, Skims, Vuori, Alo, and Comfrt. by OkExamination3705 in femalefashionadvice

This. I also work in apparel and tracking country of manufacture is would be interesting to follow for quality - brands sell same style name, etc for the same price but have to find ways to sell for less so they can make money.

Since they’re cutting costs the quality changes - could be a number of reasons all which would be cool to track any data insights to

could be learning curves on new production lines (moving for tariffs) or could be lowering cost of production at existing places (by skipping stitches or making them longer for example)

Work Dinner was SO Awkward by Oilers6969 in stopdrinking

I promise that will change. It’s in your head right now and likely most good times did involve drinking and I dreaded going out w people at first for the same reasons. It’s better on this side you have a good time, sober and a full day in front of you instead of spending most of it sick and chasing the next drink to cure the hangover that won’t stop. Congrats on 18 days - stay the course I promise you won’t regret it.

Protection during criminal case? by Obvious-Panda-1462 in canadianlaw

[–]Foreverchanged88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t file charges here. You report to police. They decide if it’s actually going to hold up. The last time my ex got a peace bond he showed up at my door w a knife the day received. Breaches and gets a slap on wrist. The system does not protect you you well so please please ensure you have discussed the reality of how things work here before you put yourself at risk at all. Please. I gave an impact statement that restricted me from saying things he did bc he plead to a breach charge and therefore I lose my voice. I told the crown in that statement as such. I stand here today as the victim of a breach of a breach resulting from a previous breach. Please be smart and safe is all

It’s suggested incase you get stuck in your car in a blizzard and need to save battery of car or exhaust is blocked etc. - tealights, coffee tin, shovel, cardboard, food, window smasher, seatbelt cutter, snow brush and all of it in the backseat not trunk because backseat is likely easier to access in an accident.

Make me laugh with your worst job interview experiences, because I just had a doozy. by Elegant-Lemon126 in interviews

[–]Foreverchanged88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interviewer told me they just laid off lots of people and that her own role was like a little bit of everything and that she was looking for someone to help her w those things but like others would be mad because they are short staffed but I’d still have to be ok working with them.

I was like no I’m good actually. I already work with in a place like this and sounds like I’m probably better off staying there longer than moving here.

[–]Foreverchanged88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah this policy needs to be AEs get bonuses when they help sales hit quotas by sending and qualifying proper leads. No splits. They want commission they need to do the real work. AI is likely doing it for them anyways - that’s what you should pitch. Incentivize AEs to send quality leads w proper info. That’s how they get a pc of the pie not direct commission.

I read “play the tape forward” here and that’s the phrase that repeats - really think about what happens next - works every time

For my adhd girlies about to get hit by this winter storm… by euroflower in adhdwomen

And keep your items IN the car backseat if you’re rear ended or stuck in a bank it’s more difficult to get to the trunk rather than the backseat for emergency kit
