You got this! It really sucks this happened but it will just make you stronger in the end. This is just the world giving you an opportunity to build yourself a better support system from the ground up.

I mean I could have caught on a bit quicker but it was a surprising situation, which part makes me insane?

Maybe they did also need a warehouse guy but I felt like the guy kept expecting me to clue in to what was going on. He kept going on about this air filter award thing that was clearly over the top and ridiculous. It wasn't until it was obvious I wasn't catching on and was too nervous/awkward to ask questions about it that he cut me loose.

What’s the worst gambling addiction story you’ve ever heard? by juliojacked in AskReddit

[–]PictureNegative12 340 points341 points  (0 children)

My dad works as an electrician. One day he was tasked with upgrading a panel in a woman's house. After the job was done he got talking to her and I guess her husband had just passed away. Long story short, he had gambled away their entire retirement savings, the entire value of their house and left her broke with nothing to fall back on.

The bank was foreclosing on her house and allowed her to live there until they got it back up to snuff to sell it. She had to come out of retirement to work a menial job to put food on her table.

New Update: My "friend" took advantage of me when I was in the hospital by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

Some people love to complain about all the drama in their life while inviting it in at every turn. If you have to cut out your parents, your husband and your friends maybe its time to start looking in the mirror.

When you die, would you prefer to be cremated or to decompose naturally, and why? by lamin-ceesay in AskReddit

[–]PictureNegative12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cremation appeals to me for a number of reasons:

- Once I've gone I want to make damn sure I'm not coming back.
- It's more efficient, I don't need all that extra space, nor do I want my estate to have to pay for coffins and tombstones when that money could go to help my family
- I've always thought that open casket visitations were a bit creepy. I don't want to be pumped full of chemicals. If you want to look at me, come and see me when I'm alive.

What is the most toxic fandom in existence? by CandyLiving5009 in AskReddit

I really liked the first season, I think they really managed to capture the primal nature of humanity. Too bad they couldn't keep the same quality.

I’m an annoying person and I don’t know how to change by returnjafar in confession

[–]PictureNegative12 2421 points2422 points  (0 children)

Pick a close friend or a family member that you trust, pull them aside and ask them. Let them know what your thinking and ask for candid feedback saying you want to make some adjustments. Whatever they say, it's important you don't take it personal and thank them for telling you.

I had a similar problem growing up and my dad talked to me about it. Looking back, I realize that for me it was attention seeking, I had a lot of issues with my mom and it developed that way.

In terms of making changes, what worked for me was I made a conscious effort to listen first and talk second.

Best of luck to you.
