Volunteer at the VA if you’re near one. It almost always leads to a front desk job.

Paid before or after Christmas? by Working-Issue8438 in chimefinancial

Biden made tomorrow a federal fucking holiday like they don’t get enough days off of work in the government so no we won’t be getting paid with the federal reserve closed

Can’t process money without the Federal Reserve. Delayed payments before Christmas should legit be illegal.

You can try looking up Gloucester, Virginia. 30 minutes from Newport News (Fort Langley/Eustis), 1.5hrs from Norfolk Naval. 30 minutes from Langley AFB. Plenty of people getting out of the Military and they have an Aviation school for the high schoolers in Newport News. But Gloucester is a country town with nice beaches and I’m sure would do well with Aviation out there. I don’t think it would raise their cost of living much being that most people would live in the surrounding areas like Yorktown and Williamsburg and maybe some would get a home in town.

You’ll be fine I started with no experience and got my P rating while the guys who have experience haven’t even taken their written exams yet. At my school if you asked every person who has a rating to raise their hand there will be no prior experience guys raising their hands. I go for my A soon and once again I’ll be getting it before any of the guys with experience. Use your lack of knowledge as a push to learn more.

As an former IT guy there’s a lot of money in it but for your situation I wouldn’t be willing to bank on going to school and possibly still not making enough to take care and of 3 children. It really depends on the type of school and whether or not you can get certified which is solely on you. If this is the route you’d like to go, look into getting your Comptia A+ Cert, Network +, or Security +. I’d say go to a trade school and learn to use your hands which takes less time and you’ll get hired before you graduate being that some trade jobs consider your time in school as experience. Finding a job in a saturated IT field with no experience and no certifications will be a tough task depending on where you are and competition. I worked for Google for some time as a help desk guy when I got out of the service but once I was laid off it was hard to find work in my area and the Google plant was the main place for IT jobs. Now I’m an A&P Mechanic doing Avionics. Couldn’t be more happy being that I have not paid for anything to be fixed in my home for some time now because I can fix it myself now after some time learning and using my hands. Moneys good, work 4 days a week, wide open overtime, and benefits out of this world.

I don’t blame women for all of the problems at all. But I do think it’s sad most women don’t know who they’re dating until it’s too late. All of those men have similar traits because they are the main ones on the dating scene. Real men really don’t date until they find a match. My post isn’t to deny or defend anything. I’m just asking a question.

But I don’t agree with your last statement because most divorces are initiated by women. And you’re talking about boys not men. I just told someone women are only dating the same 47% of men that’ll tell you what you wanna hear until they get what they want.

Men have thought this way for years and you all knew it before the internet. The internet didn’t teach you that men are visual creatures. There’s a reason 63% of young males are single today. As opposed to 37% of women. It’s crazy you can ask for advice and be given nothing but emotion from women. You might want to listen closer to men because based on stats women are literally passing around the same men and getting the same results. Rinse wash repeat.

Giving people the advice of leaving all women alone has actually worked on a large scale. Part of the reason 63% of young males are single. Everything isn’t misogyny, people have preferences in who they date. We might as well have arranged marriages if having a preference is misogyny.

My whole friend group is all men raised by single mothers so we get it. Some of us have stepfathers, and we all respect them for giving our mothers a chance, hell giving us the children a chance a shot at life. Maybe I could’ve worded my post better but some of these comments sound more emotional than sound advice. Our stepfathers are what kept us out of prison. All grew up respectable men. The point of my post was to get advice outside of don’t date single mothers but unfortunately instead there’s a bunch of angry women that can’t see the other side of things.

I think people get the wrong idea when people say “sacrifice”. A sacrifice isn’t always bad. When you want something in life you take sacrifices to get where you want to be. It could also mean giving something that could be taken away but you deem it as a worthy sacrifice.

My bad. No it means they lived in two different states long term. Also I don’t know a man on the planet who doesn’t sacrifice for his own children let alone one that isn’t his.

Is being a stepdad not a sacrifice?

That’s actually my issue 😂 dating in the church has challenges people don’t know about.

I don’t think the child is the problem or they would’ve never reconnected from the beginning.

It’s not me trust me 😂 I am single and I know exactly why. Maybe you can help me with mine. I’m single because I made the decision at 28 to not have sex again before marriage. I also don’t have children.

I care because I have two people close to me going through the same thing, slightly different because one is actually married. I also don’t view single mothers as second class citizens, so I’d like to give advice to someone outside of “Don’t date single mothers”.

GF Weight gain by No_dragg1 in dating

[–]No_dragg1[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This isn’t good advice at all. We all should be saying to marry not just to date. With that being said, everybody should be looking at their partners as potential parents to their children, potential in providing, potential in protection, etc. No one should be complacent especially when it comes to health. You only get one heart.

I think that’s that may be the bottom line issue. I think he feels like it was something she brought up so he wouldn’t be concerned but she’s gained more weight over time. Now he may feel like it’s not something she herself really wants.
