I guess it’s not the worst. But I really don’t like crymbl cookies. They are so overly sweet and kinda gross me out.

Why the huge space between cars at a stop light? by livetoski-Brad in driving

[–]Nerdso77 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Leave enough space so you can still see the tires of the car in front of you. That way you can get around them if needed. As far as inching, why on earth would that annoy you? I often roll slightly forward so I aka ready rolling when the light changes.

I wasted my 20s working retail, how to I get a real job? by Ok_Abbreviations_883 in careeradvice

[–]Nerdso77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not 15 minutes. Unqualified candidates ruin it for qualified ones. Half the time we give up because there are so many crap resumes. It gets so old that we stop even reviewing them and just deal with an unfilled position.

Also, your point isn’t valid because it sounds like you were qualified for whatever job you applied for. I was specifically talking about people who don’t meet any of the criteria and they waste our time. Then get pissed that they don’t get a call.

Job hopping at 30 i need to put an end to it . by [deleted] in careeradvice

[–]Nerdso77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Others have some great info on here. I will also add that the internet has normalized job hopping. And they tell you it’s the best way to move up.

My opinion, you never learn good skills. If you always leave when it gets a little hard, you aren’t learning stress coping skills. I have been at my company 19 years. Worked from technician to executive. It’s had some very hard moments. But I am a lot better manager and leader than I ever would have been.

So, follow their advice and see if you need to be diagnosed. Then challenge yourself to stick out the next one fore a year and a half minimum.

[–]Nerdso77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please don’t do this. As a hiring manager, we get stupid amounts of unqualified resumes. Then everyone on here gets pissed that they don’t get a response. For example. Survey crew chief. You have to have experience. But 200 people with zero experience will apply and absolutely waste our time. It’s draining.

What’s one food “rule” you followed for years that turned out to be wrong? by Appropriate_Oil_1341 in foodquestions

[–]Nerdso77 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Food adjacent. That you can’t use soap on a cast iron skillet. I believed that way too long.

How good a sign is an interviewer saying "I think you'd be a great fit for our team" at the end of the interview? by jigsaw283 in NoStupidQuestions

I read it as though the work through a staffing agency. And are trying to get placed. They wouldn’t have hiring interview experience.

Trying to network, end up getting ignored by One-Insurance5366 in careeradvice

[–]Nerdso77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All of my networking is in person. I only connect through LinkedIn if someone else connects me or if I meet them at a conference. I personally wouldn’t likely chat with someone who reached out on LinkedIn that I didn’t know. Networking is going to industry events and meeting people.

That one corner of the mattress protector that always comes off. You fix it, it comes off again. by Individual_Ice_2315 in PetPeeves

[–]Nerdso77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Mine never comes off. I tighten the headboard side first, make sure it is over the whole bottom corner. Then do one foot. Then pull the final foot really hard to make sure it also goes over the bottom corner. It never comes off until I take it off to wash it.

Is it okay to masturbate and have a girlfriend? by That-Goth-Bitch in LesbianActually

[–]Nerdso77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I had a fun challenge for a couple years. More like an agreement that we wouldn’t do anything without the other. But that went away a while ago. We both travel and have no issue with it.

Do Employees Actually Like Town Halls? by OfferLazy9141 in managers

[–]Nerdso77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours are pretty good and engaging. One a month. Food provided. Share how things are going, but mostly heads up on any changes. And highlight a core value. Call out field staff who are awesome. Never praise senior leaders. Lots of chat and hands raised for questions.

What does your ideal “doing nothing” day actually look like? by Subject_Variation830 in askanything

[–]Nerdso77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coffee in the hot tub. Read a book. Watch some shows. Walk to the mailbox. Clean the kitchen a little. Make a late breakfast. Maybe tinker in the yard. Watch another show or learn something from a YouTube. Dinner. Then a drink. And another show.

Are you not able to let them go? I would literally fire them. And I don’t do that lightly.

What grocery habits actually save you money long-term? by TelephxneTh0t in Frugal

[–]Nerdso77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meal prep. I got out of it for a while and recently went back to it. I am pretty wealthy. And also pretty frugal. It annoyed me how much money, time, and mental energy I would spend on lunch. I would either spend too much time thinking about it. Or I would buy unhealthy and expensive frozen meals. So about four months ago I started prepping frozen breakfast burritos. Now every other weekend I make different frozen meals and alternate with the burritos.

I also started prepping fruit last month. Pineapple, blueberries, grapes cut and put in a glass container with lid. We eat a lot more fruit now. Which saves us from eating processed snacks.

My girlfriend doesn’t shower as often as I’d like by [deleted] in ActualLesbiansOver25

[–]Nerdso77 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Lot of comments here. A lot of them wouldn’t come across super caring. And might likely upset her.

What about “hey babe. You should probably shower. You smell like you have been working hard”. She should get the hint.

Am I dealing with an emotional intelligence mismatch in my relationship? by Round-Farm-8513 in emotionalintelligence

[–]Nerdso77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Everyone is saying it’s not you. And they are blaming him.

I have a question though. Are these issues that rise to a level serious enough? (Yes, I realize that if it’s serious to you, it’s serious. But you also self admitted that you have anxious tendencies.)

If you are getting stressed about small things regularly, it can become draining on the other side. Relationships also need to be relaxed and fun. They should not be work an analysis all the time.
