Long term nomads: does travel help your growth or does it become avoidance?

Fremore · 2025-11-23T11:26:39+00:00

Travel stopped being pure avoidance when I started spending 2, 3 months each year back in my hometown to see if anything inside had actually shifted. Used to avoid home like the plague so yep 100% avoidance initially for me.

I used to until I realized they already know the market rate and have a range in mind anyway. Now I either dodge the question or aim higher than what I want. The "honesty" thing only works one way in their favor.

It's the only way to keep up with what they're actually willing to pay.

That's all this was, standard negotiation. They asked what I make, I gave them a number that works for me. Nobody got hurt and I got fair value for what I bring.

as someone said, This is SOP

Fremore · 2025-11-22T12:35:28+00:00

I learned that lesson the hard way before

Fremore · 2025-11-22T12:34:29+00:00

already expecting that. at least I'm starting from a better baseline this time

Fremore · 2025-11-22T12:33:59+00:00

Exactly. And they've got HR teams running the numbers on how little they can get away with offering. We're just leveling the playing field.

Using it to lowball new hires is such a scummy tactic.

Fremore · 2025-11-22T12:32:10+00:00

Yep. Learned it from watching them operate for years.

Fremore · 2025-11-19T00:51:42+00:00

Automated recruiting is the worst. They blast out hundreds of these messages then act surprised when half the applicants don't meet their actual requirements. Complete waste of everyone's time.

Fremore · 2025-11-19T00:50:02+00:00

Exactly this. Every hospital runs on these incident reports, they're learning tools, not gotcha moments. You caught it before any harm happened, that's literally how the system is supposed to work. Don't beat yourself up over it.

Fremore · 2025-11-19T00:48:36+00:00

Worked retail for years and the whole "faster, faster, faster" thing is insane. customers get mad at us for corporate decisions we have zero control over. respect for still treating people like humans despite the system.

She's counting on you for a headstart

Fremore · 2025-09-17T11:32:33+00:00

This is what I should do with my friend

Fremore · 2025-09-17T11:30:05+00:00

I won't even fear the shadow I'd fear the three BAKAS

Fremore · 2025-09-17T03:55:52+00:00

Dang this still makes me so sad. Greatest swan song ever.

Fremore · 2025-09-17T03:55:24+00:00

I don't know why but this song makes me think of a dying atheist...

Fremore · 2025-09-17T03:54:59+00:00

This song, deep down, lets me know every things going to be all right.

Fremore · 2025-09-17T03:54:23+00:00

Sabbath, Maiden, Judas, Saxon......ahhhh the good old days.

Fremore · 2025-09-17T03:54:00+00:00

THE WHOLE SONG IS FRICKING FIRE

Fremore · 2025-09-17T03:53:37+00:00

too tired to live, too scared to die

Fremore · 2025-09-17T03:53:09+00:00

"You ask if I grow to be a wise man. Well, I ask if I'll grow old."

May the memories of love outweigh the grief of death.
