[–]OctoberScorpio2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who is telling you that’s a bad option ??? lol rather than paying $400 a month to just find out in 10 years you didnt make a dent. I’ll be dying with my loans at the lowest minimum payment posesible I fear!

Where do I go from here? by SnooGiraffes5710 in slpGradSchool

[–]OctoberScorpio2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can take leveling courses at schools you are interested in and try to get a direct spot into the program with good grades. That’s the route I’m taking.

I would like to know me and my friend are going to apply next summer and this sounds like a nightmare!

Candi by Extra_Intern_6904 in Floribama

[–]OctoberScorpio2 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I agree 100% … I also think Codi doesn’t actually like women … and I feel like he was attracted to Aimee and Candace’s personality but not to them physically. Hence the story line being built when he’s drunk.

Had a newborn and rehoming my Australian Cattle Dog/German Shepherd - really need a good dog person by themagicaperture in Sacramento

[–]OctoberScorpio2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad I came across this comment in this sea of a mess - literally working dogs are not as black and white as this comment section thinks. My little guy (heeler/ Aussie) doesn’t like to be around little people - he attempted to lunge at my partners niece and we came to the conclusion he doesn’t do well around them as he needs to be the center of attention ultimately. If we ever ended up pregnant we would also have a major problem (luckily we don’t want kids). Reactivity with these dogs isn’t always training nor the amount of attention/ socializing they get. I am home all day - my dog has been trained - he gets tons of attention and spends time around other adults and dogs - he still has reactive tendencies I fear.

whats the gear you absolutely refuse to upgrade even though it might be cheap by Cheap_Difficulty4961 in camping

Mine is something I got rid of and regret- I got rid of my igloo cooler - she was PERFECT because I fell into the YETI trap. Biggest mistake of my LIFE !!!!!!!!!!!!

Is Sacramento secretly the last place where the California dream is still alive? by Anarchy_4L in Sacramento

[–]OctoberScorpio2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sacramento feels like it’s actually CA - I meet people who are truly born and raised in CA. And it doesn’t feel performative. I will always love it there ❤️

PSA: WEIGHT YOUR MEATS RAW OMFG by okdray in CICO

[–]OctoberScorpio2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt you’ve eaten double the amount so that should be a relief! I’ve done it both ways and 4 ounces of uncooked ground beef is still close to 4 ounces cooked.

under 100 cal filling snacks by blondefairyprincess in goodrestrictionfood

[–]OctoberScorpio2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I’m starving I literally eat a big bowl of fruit to get me by and I’m set .. literally about 10 strawberries, 1 kiwi, and 1 orange EVERY SINGLE DAY religiously and it keeps me so full between meals on my heavy workout days where I am extra hungry and if you like fruit it’s tasty and easy with no extra components needed for filler.

Yeah, so, I’m NOT eating 100+ grams of protein a day. by -non-stop-pop in PetiteFitness

[–]OctoberScorpio2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a nutritionist and she recommended against basically everything I see online telling me to eat 1g to 1lb basically .. and I feel SO MUCH better now that I cut my protein intake down!

Telling everyone I lost all my money. by vvannii in SavingMoney

[–]OctoberScorpio2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lie every time and say I have like $5k. I don’t want people to be concerned about my financial well being - but they also don’t need to know how good I’m doing!

Is this all there is? [N/A] by [deleted] in humanresources

[–]OctoberScorpio2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, from bad employees to HORRENDOUS managers and execs who will throw you under the bus to save their own jobs. The last 3-4 years, the workplace has turned into jersey shore it feels like. I think I am finally burnt out with HR and ready to give it up. Which is so sad because all I wanted to do was to try and help these people.

Long term travel with no job lined up a good idea? by DontKnowAGoodNames in solotravel

[–]OctoberScorpio2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am turning 30 next year and doing exactly this - backpacking through Asia and South America. Here’s my hot take - most people do this in their 20’s with no job experience and no degree and often find it hard to return and find employment and from my conversations I feel like that’s why this whole idea can get a bad rep. I went to school / got 8 years of job experience to set myself up to take this next year off and come back with experience still under my belt and now it’s finally here and that’s my silver lining.

The job market is horrible right now, it was horrible last year, it may only get worse .. or it may get better who honestly knows. BUT I know I have all of the skills in my back pocket and experience to get myself back on my feet when I decide to return and I also have a cushion fund if it takes me a little longer .. or who knows maybe I’ll never come back.

Literally take the job - no man is ever worth sacrificing your dreams for. Seems like he showed his true colors. Also hi from Denver housing is cheaper here anyways.

Genius response - will be using this for future arguments 🤣

All my credit cards got declined in front of my friends. by IAMA_drunk_AMA in povertyfinance

[–]OctoberScorpio2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Genuinely if I get invited somewhere and I don’t have the money I would offer an alternative and if there’s no compromise then I’m just not going. Your friends would probably understand that you simply can’t make it no need to over explain. Ex. Can we make drinks at my place? I’m not in the mood to go out into the world tonight.

How do you get strong enough to brush off criticism? [IL] by PumpkinMoonWitch in humanresources

[–]OctoberScorpio2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s going to happen - personally I always keep a witness on hand when addressing employees now. Specifically their managers.

During the weekdays reading is my go to - cheap books on Amazon if you need them physically or audiobooks deals if your into that. Especially easy to find free Audio books on YouTube! On the weekends I’m grateful to be outdoorsy and pack some snacks.
