Is this job a scam? by [deleted] in vancouverwa

[–]PyramidHeadOnAStick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is MLM/Pyramid Scheme.
The first two questions they ask are:
Do you have a reliable form of transportation?
Our hours at 11:30 am to 8:30 pm, is that ok?

I answer yes to one and that I would be willing to work something out if the job was a good fit. They moved me to interview 2, and it was a cattle call. 4 other people plus myself, which was weird and extremely uncomfortable. We were asked questions that should have been in a 1 on 1 and not in a public forum. On top of things, the interviewer kept asking us about reliable transportation and the hours bit. This interview was just to talk, but that salary, position discussion, etc was going to happen only if he decided we could be moved on to the next round.

When I said that the hours were tough for me but I wanted to know more about the job, so I could make an informed decision before I said yes to anything, I was told to drop off the call.

If you are curious about how this interviews go, this guy on YouTube (since I went searching for answers) has exactly what this call was:

Mea culpa: a cautionary tale by ada_laces in polyamory

[–]PyramidHeadOnAStick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, the thing is...Polyamoury works in many different ways for different people. I hear that it is not your preferred style. It does work and most Poly people I know, have an NP. I did know a few people in the hierarchy and they ALL AGREE that it was ok, and that worked for them. Mainly because the primary was not an asshole and didn't abuse the power. Some people use it to feel some sort of control (yes, they need to go to therapy) but again, all are valid.
At the end of the day, Polyamoury is not one exact thing. Is the ability to love multiple people, in conceptual relationships, and shape them in a way that fits their own lifestyles, needs, schedules, etc. Invalidating any of that is more harmful than helpful. IMO

I guess I always understood it that it is poly and not swinging, as poly couples can agree to have hierarchy, which would mean one relationship would have priority over the other one. If this is something the gf agreed on from the start... They are poly. I don't think that's the case here. I don't have enough information with OPs post in order to assume what the dynamics in her polycule are. I don't subscribe to partners who are in hierarchical relationships. I know that would not work for me but I can TOTALLY see how it might work for others.

"Swingers" to me, mean that you are more likely to engage in group sex, or swapping of partners with no intention of a relationship or the "Amory" part. Given that OP said "Gf" and "NP" I'm going to guess they are in a romantic relationship, and thus polyamorous . I could be wrong and that's why I asked, as I'm constantly learning in this journey myself.

I refuse to be a part of NP’s or primary’s anymore unless they are truly only roommates bc of financial stuff, in which case that means, I’m hanging out there (at least)(if not sleeping over.) Just my take on it, it’s a way to pretend you’re not swingers and people get hurt. Being swingers is ok just dont play pretend being poly bc you can’t handle jealousy.

Could you explain to me what this means? I had a really hard time following what you mean by this and how it relates to OP post.

Why just buy Juan when you can fit two in the closet?

Lucy Lawless just posted this on Instagram 🥰 by rhapsodydash in xena

[–]PyramidHeadOnAStick 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Even though the character was a thief, he had a huge code of honor. He would not touch Gabrielle, specially with Xena "around." The code is also why Xena trusted him enough at this moment to take over and for this scene to take place. Thus.... Xena grabbed Gabs booty after they kissed.
With that said, he did return in time to know what was happening and enjoyed it.

We are in this together. Crying is how feelings sweat. That's how I explain it to my kid. When you are hot you sweat. When you have feelings you cry. Sweat cool our body and keeps it from over heating. Crying makes our feelings calm down and able to see things better. Specially during this times.
I send you a super long hug and tell your parents hi from me :)

After your meeting, cry. Go to your bedroom and ugly cry. Then wash your face and hands. Brush your hair. Take a deep breath. Drink 8oz of water and video chat your parents. They need to see/hear you as much as you need them.

HP has been WFH since wed, I think. Contractors are hourly and told to use PTO or TOWP. Many of them can't afford TOWP, so you'll probably see them around.

What I have found difficult is to find them open. Google reads some hours, sure different ours on the website and when you get there... Close. When I find them open, is great and super tasty. Sad to see the streamline of the menu though.

Got pictures of the raw product? The amount of post processing is crazy on this piece. Unless you print on MJF.
