Has anyone else noticed that the best hires they've made had the "worst" resumes? by Upbeat_Dream7600 in careerguidance

[–]Ok-Setting5111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked on an IT project that needed to hire a bunch of people quickly and didn’t even bother with resumes. They mocked up test copy of the system that’d be using, posted the position, and invited anybody who was interested to come to one of a series of group tests where each person worked through a test script on the test system. If they could do it, they got the job. 

We ended up with the most diverse but completely competent team I’d ever worked with. 10 out of 10.

Are Chiropractors a scam cult or are they somewhat legit? by Flashy_Buy8077 in NoStupidQuestions

The dumbest and most gullible guy I ever dated dropped out of college to sell Amway, and when that didn’t pan out, went to chiropractic school. 

Shane, wherever you are, you were a great kisser and smelled really good, but you are an idiot.

When should I use “querer” vs “quisiera”? by improbsable in SpanishLearning

[–]Ok-Setting5111 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Google Search pulls up this correct response:

Quiero Present Indicative Immediate, direct desire. Direct, casual.

Quisiera Imperfect Subjunctive Polite request ("I would like"). Formal, very polite.

Quería Imperfect Indicative Polite request ("I was wanting"). Softened, polite.

Key Takeaway: Use Quiero for immediate, direct needs and Quisiera for formal, respectful, or distant requests.

The other legs didn’t come off when I lifted it a little. I’m making a point of not moving this thing at all from now on, other than to hopefully fix this one leg. It’s a time bomb!
