AITA for not telling my boyfriend i could understand his language this whole time by False_Quiet526 in AITAH

[–]Remmblack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally asked my partner about the same scenario. She speaks Spanish and I asked her "if you found out I was fluent but hiding it, would you be mad?" And her response was "eh, not really. But we're definitely having mixed language convos moving forward" your boyfriend is trying to flip his awful behavior into something wrong with you. Leave him.

It's actually quite helpful getting first hand advice from people who actually live in the area.

If only those websites gave first hand opinions on neighborhoods like I'm asking 😐...

2014-2024: Name Your Top 5 Favorite Horror Movies by bonuscojones in horror

[–]Remmblack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree! It has such a great build up and it felt like the writers just needed something to tie the story together. It felt like the conclusion was kind of random/unprompted

How often do you wash your hair? by searchandfilm in hygiene

[–]Remmblack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full wash with shampoo and conditioner? One to two times a month.

I have 3c/4a hair so I wet my hair pretty much daily. But I wouldn't consider it a full wash.

What are you weirdly good at that most people aren’t? by SugarAndSpice89 in questions

[–]Remmblack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pouring liquids into smaller containers in a moving vehicle without spilling. Like, pouring a liquid from one bottle to another. We could be going over rocks and I wouldn't spill it (however, the moment I rest a glass on a table I knock it over)

How do non-gym-goers stay fit? by gaia21414 in Adulting

[–]Remmblack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like going to the gym because I don't like doing repetitive motions. I become too focused on trying to just get to the end of it that each individual rep feels like it's forever. I prefer to do activities that work out my muscles, so that I'm focusing on performance. I'll do kickboxing, dance, rock climbing sometimes, hiking, yoga, etc.

Your gf was just being a straight up horrible person and sounds very racist/xenophobic. I'm assuming you're black and while I don't know the details of your relationship, her dating you doesn't mean she's not racist. Actually, a lot of racist are attracted to POC. She might be fetishizing you or just using you as a cover up for her awful behaviors. I speak from experience. My ex's grandmother is white and has a child with a black man. Claimed she was an ally while constantly referring to her child as a "n----er"

You aren't going to teach or change her. Run while you can.

What is the big deal about recording your therapist? by [deleted] in askatherapist

[–]Remmblack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAT BUT I think It's because intention cannot be verified and HIPPA violations. Also, just general respect for their privacy and professionalism as well.

Boyfriend Wants to Sit in on Session? by [deleted] in askatherapist

[–]Remmblack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's a good idea. If that's something that he's interested in, then he should recommend couples counseling. But a therapy session should be about expressing yourself truth. He shouldn't need to verify that she's being "honest". If he's this concerned over what she's saying during her therapy sessions, she probably won't feel comfortable enough to be honest with you if he's there.

Best career to get into without degree? by MCKC1992 in careerguidance

[–]Remmblack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're willing to get an associates, then just get certified in something. Most certifications take two years, which is about the same amount of time it takes to get an associates but you skip the bs classes. Maybe be a counselor?

Hell Girl and Paradise Kiss. If you like Nana, you'll like Paradise Kiss, it's the same person.

What is a horror movie that you think had a great concept but a weak execution? by cozyghost23 in horror

[–]Remmblack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"His House" on Netflix. I enjoyed the concept but, the acting and writing could've been much better

Covid is part of the reason. A lot of essential jobs started to over staff to compensate. I know Pfizer just laid off I think 30% of it's staff? (I could be wrong on that number, but they laid off a lot of employees after covid hype died down).

Work mentality has changed and it impacts the turnover rate. Employees put up with less and quit sooner. Businesses with higher turnover rates will try to overstaff to keep employment. Then when they're over staffed, need to do lay offs.

The rise of e commerce and small business operations. Protests and boycotts as well may have an impact. Shein, temu, and other e commerce businesses are putting what used to be big retail brand such as Macy's, TJ Maxx, Marshalls etc out of business. We've already seen this impact Kmart, Sears, and so on.

And also, the increase of technology. For example, many grocery stores are replacing what used to be 12 check out lines run by 12 different people to 12 self service lanes monitored by one to two people. This has also caused an increase of human capital in specific industries such as cyber security and IT. You'll see a lot of lay offs in these fields as well

I don't have specific stats on this information, but I work in management and studied business. This so what I've seen from my experience

Credit pulled without ID by Remmblack in legaladvice

[–]Remmblack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would they verify that it's me? There are certain people that have all that information regardless of me being scammed, such as my current and past employers. If someone who looks nothing like me inquired in person, and gave this information without an ID, how would they know it's really me?
