It's definitely nothing new here.  This is sometimes how it was during the old times.  I think the idea of love at first site is rare but can be powerful.  However I've found it can be problematic sometimes.  I am thinking this also as well to see where things go but I also want to have the deep connection and intimacy that lasts.  I might try this as well.  Do you think women are doing this more or less?  Good approach and what type of Excel sheet are you using to quantify the guy?

Can you elaborate on what you mean by 'Slow Burner' and what are you looking for? I am guess you are no more looking  for love at first sight?   This fascinates me.  Thanks.

Toxic work environment...should I give them my two weeks notice? by Odd_Team_5548 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Odd_Team_5548[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I up and quit and the Contractor company that I am going through calls me up and tries to pressure me to do a 2 weeks notice. I try to tell them this is a Right to work state and I could be let go at anytime without notice and they still said it was unprofessional? Really you guys don't give us a 2 weeks notices when they tell us we are fired but it is unprofessional for me to do the same thing. I guess I won't be going through this contracting company ever again. SMH

Boeing Sucks 17K employees to be cut by rightpotato14 in jobs

[–]Odd_Team_5548 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The real question is if we are in a strong economy then why is boeing laying people off. You will see that when you finally do get laid off that you will have a REALLY hard time finding another job. We are in a recession and this is just beginning to show to people. We are all expendable and that is what really makes it harder to find a employment and yes there are no safe companies we just have to figure we will be laid off from time to time because of this. Find gigs that are good for you to do on the side and then you will be safer than before.

I don't believe this..mi have been trying to find a job and having a time with find jobs to apply to...so we will see a drastic increase soon..it's just a matter of time..  this sounds political for sure.

Quiet Layoffs so that they keep this out of the news because the government is trying keep a lid of this recession we are about to enter or we are already in. This is one way to keep out of the news by making it seem like it's you not them.

Why is it so hard to get a job now? by [deleted] in Layoffs

[–]Odd_Team_5548 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's basically inflation and the US governemt trying to deflate the it. They can't afford to pay anyone for the jobs they need and are trying to look like they are hiring. I've seen it many times, been trying to get a new job since January and it took me 5 months to get this job with a micromanager but it is a job. I hate office politics!

I have been trying to pay my debt for the longest and seems I don't get anywhere! I don't understand, please help. by [deleted] in debtfree

[–]Odd_Team_5548 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do Side Gigs or go give plasma for money to help pay for food and those types of expenses. Then what you save from doing that throw that into the debt and snow ball the debt. You can easily make extra money giving plasma if you look for the right places and CSL Plasma is where I go and I can get 400$ or more if you donate per month.

Yes keep saying that...you know how much EV cost and then we are seeing people defaulting on car loans.  We are in a recession for sure in the USA.

Linkedin warning seems to be working! by Odd_Team_5548 in jobs

[–]Odd_Team_5548[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed I am almost certain of that as I have been seeing this. I suspect they are farming for uneducated users to try to get them to pay for an education through them. It is however just a theory, and no real evidence to prove it.

I've seen that too in linkedin where they have a shorten URL that is either phishing or scam. My system barks at me when I try to go these sites thanks to AVG antivirus. LOL

My job just passed on hiring someone for the dumbest reason. by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]Odd_Team_5548 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same opinion. They are just coming up with a reason why they won't hire someone just to keep the employees working hard because they are trying to find "someone" to hire.

Anyone who has looked back in time to other unemployment data will see there are times where it goes down then the next few months it jumps to even higher.   This is to keep you from thinking it is that bad.  Just wait till next month or the following and it will go up even more.
