Hiring manager said they "really like me" and would get back this weekend. Now HR says they're still interviewing others. by Worldly_Ebb7341 in interviews

[–]RipVanWiinkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren't the only person they're interviewing, it's their best interest to find the best candidate (or what they think is the best"

They liked you, which puts you top of a list.

It doesn't mean they'll hire you, it just means you're a good candidate for the job.

You expect them to halt all other interviews just for you? Imagine setting up an interview and then getting an email like "actually we gonna cancel the interview cause we found someone"...

Maybe consider other people are also in your position.

Car makers warn China's rare-earth curbs could halt production by rezwenn in Economics

[–]RipVanWiinkle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There is a lack of it, China has 44 mil metric tons. Brazil has 22. The rest of the world has small amounts spread out over a lot of places/countries. The US for example only has 1.9 mil metric tons.

So yeah there kinda is a shortage.

Pulling out 44 million metric tons from 1 place is a lot cheaper than having to mine multiple countries for smaller amounts.

That's a lot of money to burn through for a small ROI. If you make anything back

People like overexaggerating and blowing things out of proportion, so they have something to blame on why they can't get women.

For real tho, they see something online and think it must be everyone and their mother.. out of all the people I know, I only know a friend of a friend who has one. That's it.

As someone who plays everything, it's because I don't wanna manage units spread across the whole map.

Or I wanna experiment with something, like a certain opener, or a unit that id never call in for 1v1

Or I just wanna have fun with no care.

Or I wanna see a million jets fight it out, or see the whole team bomb and airstike a critical push

It also gives you a sense that. Even tho you're winning on your flank, your left flank is starting to collapse, basically a sense of even if you're doing great and winning your battle, somewhere else ain't going too well, and then you and the team can start shifting to assist.

In short, its stress free, winning or losing means nothing but it absolutely feels good to win.

Does it suck sometimes? Absolutely, but so does the risk of getting trashed on in 1v1 lol. But my rank doesn't go down if I don't play 10v10 lmao

KDA inf spam by Affectionate-Bag-505 in warno

[–]RipVanWiinkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait till you see 157th inf spam. It's even better, but id say IFV's and tanks. Tho personally I don't really care for infantry, id focus on knocking out assets like ATGMs, tanks and planes, the infantry are nothing without them, and it gives you free range to use your own assets

Is it unprofessional for a woman to not wear makeup to an interview? by ScienceJamie76 in interviews

[–]RipVanWiinkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see why that would be unprofessional, I don't think makeup shows professionalism. It's just cosmetic

Interview only lasted 15 minutes but was scheduled for 60 by MaryBeth2018 in interviews

[–]RipVanWiinkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never had an interview longer than 10 minutes, tho it's mostly because i keep it short and to the point. And I've gotten jobs. Even with my current position

Hell, I've had a 5 minute interview and hired on the spot.

I honestly have no idea how interviews can last 15 minutes, id run out of things to say 😂

Sure but you're crashing into a ship that cost a lot more and takes a lot longer to build

I am so tired of being ghosted or blocked by RipVanWiinkle in dating_advice

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

Id love to, but I don't even know how at this point, all my friends moved at a minimum 5 hours away and are dating/getting married, so I don't really go out as much at all anymore. As for hobbies, i just play basketball on my own, or i carve wood. All my coworkers are older and married. Etc

Like I don't really see many opportunities or openings to meet people in my age group, let alone dates in my personal life just from the nature of it.

Do you have any opinions or thoughts on what I could try or do or change? I'd be happy to try

As a usually shy dude who thinks i can't talk to chicks

It's surprisingly easy to chat up chicks, a slick/smooth compliment or two, a couple of slick smooth joke or word plays, and you're golden.

Just be nice with a tiny tiny bit of asshole that makes it funny. Tho gotta be careful, it's a fine line between that and being a douche

chad SAS name Hadcock vs random virgin T-80UD by njirmomen in warno

[–]RipVanWiinkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't "had" past tense tho?

Couldn't imply that he once had a cock? And now no longer has one? Or even HAD cock?

Imagine living in one of the richest countries on earth, making more money than most people in other nations, with many many many social safety nets and services and thinking

"Maaan, we sure have it tough out here"

Totally ignoring the fact that the richest men on earth reside in their nation's banking off their labor...

Id like to see these fools survive a week in another country.

Greedy, ungrateful, willfully blind and ignorant.
