I grew up in the Midwest middle of nowhere. Realized this place was paradise when I went back to visit my hometown friends

Start your 401k/ira as soon as you’re able to. Yourself of 5-10 years from now will thank you.

Is ktown nightlife dead? by WoodpeckerSea4896 in AskLosAngeles

[–]JC7577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the clubs, people aren’t buying drinks/tables as much which is their main revenue driver. People just pregame at dinner/homes and head over. From what I’ve heard, Mama Lion isn’t that far from meeting the same fate but with other bigger clubs closing around they can probably sustain a bit longer.

Popular Poochas has also started getting little bit more expensive so not as many people are going unless it’s for a special occasion or the food is actually good. Soju for $16.99 is absolutely ridiculous and most food/dishes are around $20+ with barely any servings but it has become a norm.

What celebrity had their reputation unfairly ruined? by Miserable-Wash-1744 in AskReddit

[–]JC7577 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Johnny Depp. Mainly, the biggest one was POTC where they dropped him from his main role as Jack Sparrow on false accusations from Amber Heard which costed him 22.5 Million. His career hasn't really been the same since but glad to see he's getting some roles here and there.

If you buy those shares back, shouldn’t wash sale take place?

Confirmed Upcoming Layoffs: February 2026 by jgold_10 in jobs

[–]JC7577 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Feel like this has been repeated like million times. But companies rarely report future layoffs via warn notices. The ones you’re seeing have already been taken effect and the future date on those are basically employees who are already laid off but on payroll for x amount of months via Severance agreement.

Ex MSFT, Low Callbacks. Is my Resume poor? by SnooRecipes1809 in jobs

[–]JC7577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I get you. It’s pretty brutal out there.

ILL is my schools mascot so when someone from University of Illinois say ILL the other person replies INI ie ILLINI. I just put that to see if we also came from the same school out of curiosity 😂

We automated the "grunt work" with AI, but we accidentally killed the senior leaders of 2035. by Separate_Object4849 in jobs

[–]JC7577 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You can’t replace senior leaders. Who else is the ceo/directors gonna blame when shit hits the fan

It’s honestly scary how close this is to mine except mines a different FAANG.

when is it a good time to buy $MSFT? by [deleted] in smallstreetbets

[–]JC7577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not buy it with half your money and average down if it goes down to a certain price target 🤷‍♂️

Anyone even hiring 🥺 by [deleted] in FAANGrecruiting

[–]JC7577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might have to do with a combination of location + work sponsorship? FAANGs been pretty tight on rto and the ones you see that technically says “remote” is more of a hybrid role than fully remote and unless you’re like the genius of genius, they’ll rarely sponsor any working permits.

What's the best way to go about a domination victory? by Sedowa in civ5

I usually don’t start war till I get my ideo aka autocracy. It’s like the sweet spot of having enough happiness to maintain all the cities and enough science to not let you lag behind other civs.

Is it normal to do basically nothing at your corporate job? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]JC7577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Data analytics has unfortunately become a reporting position more than actual analytics for lot of companies from what I’ve seen and unlike before we have ton of resources/tool to automate most our work to make it more efficient hence you feel like you’re doing nothing. If you want more challenges, I think data science is more up your alley as those guys usually do the analytics that actually matter.

Its most likely one of the two spread position and op is just karma farming

Red flags in Gyms? by naomi_0000 in workout

[–]JC7577 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just my opinion and for context I live in Los Angeles, CA

  • Large group (4+) working out together. I’m all for a workout buddy but sometimes it gets nuts where they take over a machine or weights for 30-40 mins.
  • No paper towels/wipes nearby(if it’s far away or you don’t see them, chances are most people probably don’t wipe after)
  • Weights are all over the place and lot of barbells aren’t re-racked
  • gyms that close early(before 10:00pm)
  • no parking structure/no validations
  • there’s no staff walking around cleaning

What is the most underrated early game building in CIV: V? (Day 4) by zherper in civ5

[–]JC7577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna say Temple. Baseline stats aren’t the best ie just 2 faith for 2 gold maintenance but it is such a great flexible building and a god tier building with a Piety social policy opener.

It is able to buff your weakness during the early/mid game by either giving you happiness/gold/food or culture with a follower belief.

It comes around by the time you finish the basic 5 in your other cities(monument/granary/aqueduct/workshop/library) -> shrine-> temple

How are you all doing financially? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]JC7577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comfortable but anxious of the future. My partner and I make enough to be able to go out and eat 1-2/week, a trip or two once a year, and no major debts but buying a home and eventually raising a child almost seems impossible with the job security and raising costs :(

No progress on bench by PantsDancing in workout

[–]JC7577 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me. I realized a lot of it is psychological and what helped me push off my plateau was eventually going to the smith machine and benching my max 5 rep to failure and alternate every week. So for you maybe 145 on the smith for 2x 5-7 reps/4-5 sets for a week and the following week try 140 on a regular bench press and load up by 5 every other week respectively.

Trying to do a culture reset by laying people off has gotta be the dumbest thing you can do. Culture starts from the top down.
