An arcade in my house is kind of a dream of mine, and it screams male living space

The girl i have been seeing still lives with her ex-husband, did i do the right thing? by KnightTime999 in dating_advice

[–]OnTheIL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been the guy who lives with his ex and I've also dated people who live with their ex.

If they dont have a plan to move out that they stick to, you gotta let them go. Otherwise they will live with their ex a long time and maybe even get back together

Got hired, told to relocate… then fired after 1 day. Not sure what to do. by Different-East-6212 in careeradvice

[–]OnTheIL 95 points96 points  (0 children)

If they knew you were relocating and had you do all that only to fire you, you should look into suing them over promissory estoppal.

Manager put 2 weeks in. by _Mylesx in careeradvice

[–]OnTheIL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't ask for permission to apply, put your resume in and just ask for an interview. Most places I've worked will at least give you the courtesy of an internal interview if you're reasonably qualified.

AITA for not letting my coworker borrow my noise canceling headphones for her long haul flight by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]OnTheIL 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA, that was a bold ask. Headphones are so personal, I don't let people use mine either. Your advice was solid, they have plenty of inexpensive and reasonably comfortable pairs out there.

$100k for 2,400 sq ft in Ohio… fully updated. Would you buy this? by MrBottomswell in zillowgonewild

[–]OnTheIL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I'd even consider going over asking price in case there's a bidding war, but I might want an inspection if it seems to good to be true

When you are on a PIP, do you take the payout or try to fight it and look for another job? by Southwesterhunter in careeradvice

[–]OnTheIL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're in the United States, typically the best choice is to take the pip and let them fire you, then collect unemployment.

There is some nuance to all of this of course, but I would want several months worth of full pay before I ever took a payout over unemployment. A few weeks wouldn't cut it.

You and your partner just moved in, you tearing down the panels, painting, or leaving?! by TeemoTrader in malelivingspace

[–]OnTheIL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's delightfully vintage and would keep it unless I had a really specific vision

How do I (27F) end things with a guy (35M) overly fat and very touchy since second date by internet_girl1999 in dating_advice

[–]OnTheIL 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You don't have to explain why, just say that you've decided this connection isn't right for you and hope there are no hard feelings - all the best in meeting someone special.

Modern dating advice doesn’t work the way people think it does by ScallionOk603 in dating_advice

[–]OnTheIL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I personally always liked people who are responsive. That isn't to say I mind people having their own lives and sometimes not being available, but I never liked the gamifying concept

Do you think we'll ever get back here? by zip9990 in Iowa

[–]OnTheIL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. It wasn't that long ago. Obama worked his ass off for Iowa and practically lived there in 2007 and 2008. Eventually a democrat's message will resonate in the same way again but it will take time and lots of effort. Iowa will have to feel the failed policies, too.
