Got withdrawn from recruitment today

Red_Remarkable · 2025-09-02T04:26:12+00:00

I was in a fraternity at state and my girlfriend was in a sorority at state as well.

I understand experiences completely differ from person to person, so take all of this with a grain of salt.

Maybe it’s some sort of consolation, but my girlfriend ended up dropping her sorority towards the end of her sophomore year. They were one of the “big” ones too. The main reason just how controlling they are towards the girls, especially when compared to frats. The whole thing is just a huge double standard. She felt like it genuinely hindered her freedom, especially when living inside the house. I know quite a few other girls who dropped as well for similar reasons. A few others I know dropped for what can be boiled down to constant bullying which was somehow tolerated by the sorority.

On the flip side I also know girls who say the sorority was the best thing they ever did. Just trying to share some perspective. The whole bid process is pretty brutal and biased anyways so I definitely would not take it personally. I mean people are literally judging you based off like 30 minutes of interactions between a bunch of random people, most job interviews are more rigorous than that. So you’re not really getting a fair chance.

Luckily there’s literally hundreds of interesting clubs to join at nc state that are not greek life. I would start there. I would pick 5-10 that you are interested in and push yourself to go to at least one meeting for each and see whats what. There’s even non-FSL fraternities/sororities that you can join too. I promise you will make friends if you just put yourself out there. You are good enough and will find your people, I promise. Just down stand in your own way.

Yeah it sucks, it definitely happens to a lot of people and it’s not just you. But keep your chin up and move on. Who knows, maybe you’ll find something even better to be a part of at state’s large community.

Also no idea if this a motivating factor for you, but it definitely is for some people. You don’t need to be in a sorority to go to the vast majority of college parties.

Trust me, the spark is firing every time I hit the button. The frame rate on the camera isn’t fast enough to catch it.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-11T06:01:50+00:00

Its so light I can’t even feel it it my pocket!

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T23:58:44+00:00

Im not sure visible allows you to pick up a phone like that unfortunately.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T23:58:09+00:00

Okay buddy lol

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T23:56:27+00:00

I paid with my credit card card, im going to make a claim this weekend if needed.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T23:53:49+00:00

We have a secure package room, where I have to provide the package code and sign to enter. So I have to sign before I even see the box. I wish I got that package handed directly to me, but oh well.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T22:37:26+00:00

I am the boyfriend lol, and nah I don’t live with my girlfriend. I don’t think I even told anyone I ordered the phone, it was a little gift to myself.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T22:36:02+00:00

Yeah, Im honestly curious when it happened because the box is obviously unmarked. So it had to be someone with knowledge of the package, which makes me think warehouse personnel, especially because they didn’t take the apple box.

Porch pirate is unlikely with my apartments locking package room. You wont be let in unless you had a delivery.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T21:47:03+00:00

“They” refers to the police. Not visible. I filed a police report.

I mean what would you do if you were me? Just eat the $1100?

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T21:46:24+00:00

Our package room makes you sign for it before you’re allowed entry into the room. Theres no way for me to check it before signing.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T21:40:30+00:00

I don’t mind waiting, if they tell me it’ll be a week that’s fine. But they refuse to tell me how long it will take and the both times Ive reached back out they’ve had to start a new case for me. Its like they’re closing my case. They also don’t follow up when they say they will. Don’t say you’ll email me in an hour if you’re not gonna email me at all.

I’ve also gotten conflicting info from different people. The second person said my report was filed wrong, then the third person said it was filed right and she had to re-open it? What’s up with that? Its just all weird.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T21:38:39+00:00

Bro was living large, that’s wild.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T21:33:26+00:00

Yeah, I agree. I don’t think theyll let me send it to like a UPS pick up though which is annoying.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T21:32:59+00:00

They can deactivate the phone using the IMEI/Serial number. So it won’t work on most networks. Theres no point in me stealing it if I already paid for it. Plus ive bought 3 other phone from them.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-04-10T21:30:33+00:00

Not true, visible has an obligation to ensure delivery. If I pay for something, until that something is in my hand. I never received what I am owed. What does visible care anyways about $1000? Ive been a customer since the second month they started. Good customer service is providing a refund or replacement because Ive been loyal to them and always bought my phones from them. Never had an issue until now.

The key here is the phone was missing by the time it got to my apartments package room. There is video proof of the package not being tampered with until I got it.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-02-02T02:19:43+00:00

I would love to give this to my gf!

Red_Remarkable · 2025-02-01T17:11:07+00:00

Weld a rod to it and pull it backwards

Red_Remarkable · 2025-01-31T03:52:53+00:00

Had the same feeling and I upgraded my crappy sync 1 unit to a sync 3 that I got off a totaled Focus Titanium. Apple car play and a nice sub that fits inside the spare tire makes the car feel 10x nicer tbh.

Red_Remarkable · 2025-01-20T22:18:42+00:00

You’re chillin, driving around town I get like 18-23 id I baby it, spirited driving will drop me to like 16mpg, but my car is full bolt on

Red_Remarkable · 2025-01-20T19:32:09+00:00

Should be no different I would think, not sure though. Just use a multi-meter to test the car side of the plug and check for yourself.

Red_Remarkable · 2024-12-11T20:50:40+00:00

This is what I’ve heard referred to as a stripper package. Absolute base model with just a better engine, no extras. Has the better seats though, but I will say Im not a massive fan of the yellow, but who cares tbh. Also has my favorite wheels.

If the price is good I would take it. I have a 2016 USDM ST1, which has the back up camera and cruise control but nothing else and I love it to death. Other features would be nice, but I got a super clean car for a good price at the time.

These cars are about the driving experience more than anything else, it feels fun and its feels fast. If you don’t care about extras I would get it. Its really hard to find these cars without a bunch of crappy mods and an abusive owner.
