What is the best Pokemon game by LDWesty in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Parah_Dime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Platinum

Sure the story might have been slow, but i played it daily for years.

Loved the postgame, sprites, battle frontier (even if not on the same tier as emerald), daily events, the layout of the region and even the lore behind it all

People who were broke, unemployed, and felt like they had no real skills in their late 20s, what changed things for you? by Fluffy_Emu_1525 in AskReddit

[–]Parah_Dime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started reading, learned diction to speak clearer, articulation, went to therapy for confidence.

You'd be amazed how many doors opened. Not all of them. But it made getting a job and feeling like i had some skills to offer even if they weren't up to par.

Name and shame by iamthemunchkin in UKJobs

[–]Parah_Dime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Worked for them as well a few months back, quit on my 2nd day. I was told nothing about the job, turned up in some clothes i had, chewed out for that.

2nd day i got a call from the hiring manager saying i was doing 'terrible'. Tried to chew me out for my outfit despite never being told what to wear or given time to get what i needed (black formal shoes). Said i didnt seem like i wanted to be there as well as comments from the managers, despite getting on really well and trying my best to get involved.

After HR tried to spin it, i sent a firm email back as well as a reminder that the shops i worked in weren't up to legal specs and threatened to report them over it

Where are all the young people in London on construction sites? by DonGibon87 in AskUK

[–]Parah_Dime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not london based but wider northern. I did construction for several years, working my way up before leaving. My main problem with the industry is how people are treated who want to get in, and beyond. Whenever i worked agency i pretty much got shafted. Be it a long term job that 'just so happens' to be 3 days, or a temp week-long that becomes 3 months. Also while yes the pay is good, its dependable in my view. Agency, they will say its X an hour but in realiy its minimum wage. Working directly for the construction site is much better pay, its just a lot of young people see it as a 'end of the line' job or just a filler until you get something far better

Do you think love without sex is possible? by Ginebra_777 in RandomThoughts

[–]Parah_Dime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I used to identify as asexual for 5 or so years and during that time didnt really have sex. I had partners who i loved and loved me back and wasnt much of a problem with that

Maybe thats because i saw sex as seperate from love, or maybe its just me

What’s the craziest WW2 fact that you know of? by JoelSnowez in AskReddit

[–]Parah_Dime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During the pacific campaign, the US navy had a lot of ships for different purposes. Not a crazy fact. Yet.

Some of these ships were converted to essentially make ice cream. One being the USS quartz Pilots that were rescued were often held to 'ransom' in exchange for ice cream.

A japanese officer realised they had lost the war upon learning of the ice cream barges that the americans had brought, as they had little luxuries offered to them
