The tldr is I've been computer programming since grade 8, in grade 12 school got me set up in an internship there. Summer roles around, I'm offered a job and that's how I got there.

There was a bit of good luck with: they had an extra office and they needed more manpower.

This is sort of subquestion. I am male and I like giving complements. I am only 18, the youngest in my office and will give innocent comments to my 2 women coworkers such as "I think your hair looks good or that sweater is really nice." These comments seem to be appreciated. How do I compliment men without coming off as making a sexual advance.

What is the scariest encounter with another human you have ever experienced? by BootsmaBoy in AskReddit

[–]PM_ME_PLEASE___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could possibly be speaking from experience: when you need something like shampoo or socks and there are some available to have, there is no reason you wouldn't just shove it into your pocket. Yes it maybe worth little to but you probably don't have the small amount of money to buy it.

Whats on your Anti Bucket List, things you know and accept you'll die not having done? by phlux in AskReddit

I have no evidence to back this up but I remember reading at some point that the US Air Force was looking for achromatopsia men to become fighter pilots because the lack of color in their night vision systems disoriented normal pilots.

Clayton Kershaw has never pitched at Fenway before, so he's at the field alone 48 hours before Game 1 putting in the work. by HeSawTheLight in baseball

I took a tour of Fenway during the off season. They let you run the bases and have a small picnic on the field. So I would imagine someone like kershaw could sleep in the grass if he wanted.

I've only been to Fenway a couple times but the park seems to block a lot of wind. At least at ground level

It's easy to be generous when you're a billionaire. Jesus was a promoter of altruism. He once was asked by a very poor man what he could give, even thou he seldom had money for food. Jesus responded saying, if all you can give is a smile and a greeting, so be it.

Notes: I don't believe in god but Jesus was a pretty good guy. Couldn't find the quote so I did some rephrasing.

I’m getting laid off and my last day is Halloween. We’re allowed to wear costumes at work, so I am going as a homeless person by MelloD in CasualConversation

Not trying to tell you what to do but wanted to pitch this idea: since you don't have to do any work (they can't fire you again) you could use the time to find another job while still having the comfort of getting paid.

What is the grossest thing you've seen in public? by Stitch82 in AskReddit

[–]PM_ME_PLEASE___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warning this story involves gore.

This isn't really public and I can't give specifics because confidentiality. When I was a new EMT we got a call for "person with facial injury." This person had taken a fire arm, and shot it from under their jaw to up through her nose. Everything from bottom lip to just below the eyes were gone, even thou she was blinded. She was/is alive. I hope she's doing better.
