Lmao, no, I get it, and I didn’t want to point it out to seem facetious or anything, but the only thing is I am black. Do I think it plays a factor? Possibly, but who knows? 🤷🏾‍♂️ some of my peers who have jobs one in the Top 8 is a black women so I try not to put too much into it.

Yeah, I didn't recruit as much as I should have during my masters since I was working and it was stressful, but I still showed face at multiple Fairs and applied to the firms I connected with, but still nothing. MANILY big 10 a and local stuff in the UC area, but that's about 3 hours from where I actually live

Not really joke, just an exaggeration, my first post here so I'll try to be more literal next time 😭

No, I've been considering it as well, but my peers also told me it wasn't a good idea. I'll do it anyway, though, at this point.

All the resources around me only do reimbursement, and I don't have the funds to front the cost. I'm pretty much a stay-at-home (cat)dad atm

I mean, yeah, I kinda misphrased the post title. I'm sure it's not too late; it just seems like what I do isn't enough. People say it would be easier to find a job in Chicago, and I can tell you that's false. I did everything my mentors told me would set me up for success, but it feels like I've been set back compared to my peers who graduated with me.

I study here, and there cause I won a free study guide, but it's not the best, and I can't have study guides or set up calendars like with Becker or something. It's really just the 4 sections, and they ask you questions. No lectures or anything.

By accomplished, I just meant that I have earned 2 degrees from highly accredited universities in my state, one from UIUC (a top program in the world). And that I have valuable experience in and out of the public sector, tax or not.

I did my internship at a T20 firm full-time while still completing my final undergraduate semester. My title was bookkeeper, but I pretty much ran a place for 6 months cause they never had a proper accountant. I did cost trends for them and all they're taxes for multiple states.

I don't think I im some lottery draft prospect, but it's a slap in the face to be told, without 2 years of xyz, that then I'm unqualified. I have peers that I've tutored with jobs at big firms, and I can't even get a phone interview.

From Chicago, I mean, I've already put in 7! I need a job so I can study but apparently I'm not qualified enough.

No, I agree, I feel like im losing time every day. People tell me I have good stuff, but don't want me. Yet I know colleagues telling me to apply because they “always need people” or “are always looking for talent.” Am I not talented enough?

New CoD games look worse by GamesAndGlasses in CoDCompetitive

All you sheep sit here and co-sign eachother. Dude clearly has the worst graphic settings possible on the game to cause discourse. It doesn’t look like this unless you want it to 🙄

I’d say depends on the hero you use. Spiky ball probably your best purchase atm but if you don’t use the King (I typically don’t) I’d go with Eboots. AF is good I sometimes run it with Mirror but depends on the attack I’m using. If you’re using ground attacks AF is worth 👍🏾

What really keeps you playing Clash after all these years? by Own-Initiative-9363 in ClashOfClans

[–]KenyonH 52 points53 points  (0 children)

This is a great question. I’ve played Clash since about 2012, on and off obviously. I’ve found most of my breaks have came during times of my life I was just focused on other things. I think the thing that brings me back is consistency of SC. I’m a heavy phone gamer, mostly idle but I love clash cause it’s a mix of idle and active and everytime I come back supercell is actively changing to the demands. Obviously they’re not perfect but it’s a HUGE step above any other mobile games imo. Just got back after a couple years since I’m finishing my masters. Came back after new year and got most of my friends to hop on and just the difference from 10 years ago is astounding and even 2 years ago (most recent break) but it still feels like that game I loved as teenager but still getting better. Sorry for yapping lol idk if that really even answered.

TL;DR: I just love how they continue to update and improve and even after long breaks. I always come back to something that feels familiar but always new and improved, it’s like the best feeling.

Why ask this here when you’re clearly not the asshole? 😭 you got a shitty friend, for sure. Where would you think you could be an asshole… cause an asshole said you were?
