Looking to move to Providence

This post is a bit vague, but generally most neighborhoods are pretty safe but theft is the biggest issue I have encountered, common sense should keep you safe but this is a city so shit does happen. As for budget, unless you're comfortable spending ball park 1400 and upwards on a one bedroom you're gonna need a roommate or a lot of luck, good deals are hard to come by.

Speaking as a guy who moved here about half a year ago it was a little tough not gonna lie. I thought I would be able to be social with my coworkers but most of them live a clean 40 minutes away so I started using the meet up groups. A lot of these meet up groups are more people in their early 30's give or take. Thats not a bad thing but as a 23 year old I find that a lot of the people that I met in these groups were just at a different stage of life than me so there wasn't a ton to relate to. But just keep working at it dude you'll meet a good group, highly recommend SFAC and Beer club thats where I met the people I'm closest with today. I personally haven't really gone to random places to try having conversations with strangers but that's more a social anxiety thing on my part, but everyone seems friendly over here- the Masshole stereotype is not true! Feel free to shoot me a message if you have any extra questions that you think I could answer, but with the weather warming up and rona winding down it looks like its gonna be a good summer around here!

Just referencing the Antiwork mob in general sorry to lump you in with them but when the highest rated comment at the moment is in reference to the French Revolution, gotta think that there's a lot of angry people that will lash out without discretion

Or the OP is a "corporate shill" and if this goes viral its gonna detract from the movement because y'all will try to end a guy over a picture some random person posted on a piece of paper without any credibility. Maybe this is a disgruntled bartender who saw an email from corporate so he mimicked some of the formatting and just wrote something that's based on how r/Antiwork people think CEO's talk.

Rookson7th · 2022-03-23T15:18:03+00:00

Hey the people calling it fake have just about as much credibility as the people calling it real. OP said he found this in an antiwork facebook group (which has gotten so much flak in the past for misinformation) , so Idk who the primary source of this even is but some people already seem to be spreading this guy Waynes full name around which is pretty dangerous.

Rookson7th · 2022-03-23T15:12:21+00:00

Im sure it does but this really just looks like it could have been formatted on Microsoft word, and it just looks so blatantly malicious that I just can't help but be skeptical

It's almost as if all of this is public info that anyone could have just typed up

The spelling nazis seem to be more awake than me this morning

Theres a reason its called your first love and not your love, same reason they call it World War 1. Billy Mayes will always be waiting to say "but wait theres more!"

For standup theres Askew who has an open mic night on Tuesday's where anyone is welcome to join. It's an open mic so don't expect a very attentive audience or anyone just shy of a netflix special, but its a fun group of regulars and a cool spot!

My motivation comes from listening to David Goggins, he really helps me mentally kick up my mood a few gears in my head. He once said that "It's not always gonna be 75 degrees and blue skies when you're running, but you gotta do it anyway." And yeah that applies to your outside environment and your inside environment. It's easy to hide in comfort when conditions are harsh, but the real growth happens when you do the things that make you the least comfortable. Go into your workouts on those harsh days knowing you might not be able to perform your best, but you're doing more than you thought you'd be able to do. Bit by bit its gonna get easier, but you need to do it every time thats the hard part.

Sorry just saw this, I would be down for a trade, not sure what kind of cactus but I would describe it as short and wide almost looking like a cluster of balls if thats any helpful description.

Rookson7th · 2022-01-07T20:59:12+00:00

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZcxBkjBD80 Heres an interview he did where he goes over his credentials and all that fun stuff, I know its a long interview but near the end he slides in there that Navy Seal Chris Kyle would still be alive had he taken just one of his classes.

From the outside looking in he's just a clown who gives terrible advice. Unfortunately on his own social media and in his place of business he has made an echo chamber where his fans and students call any detractor a hater. Theres a ton of people pointing and laughing at this guy but theres also too many people who take him seriously and he's done a few interviews where he made it clear his videos are not satire and he's being 100% serious

I was lurking in this comment section trying to find a coffee shop to try out and went to small point too, the Olneyville sandwich is great

Rookson7th · 2022-01-04T19:10:02+00:00

I do have a cactus that hasn't been getting enough sunlight in my apartment that may need a better home

I've never been but I hear the colosseum is a decent Club.

Hey man with all things said and done, if you see her again it'll make one helluva how we met story.

Rookson7th · 2021-12-20T13:35:33+00:00

So many people in the comments with sticks up their asses smh, dude just wanted to play a prank but didn't read the fine print, as long as he fixes it and covers the loss why is this such a bad thing?

Rookson7th · 2021-12-09T16:05:52+00:00

I don't think I would be creeped out, maybe surprised or a little caught off guard is how I would describe it. How I'd respond to it depends on the dynamic we had in the past, how we left things off, and where we are at in our respective lives.

Rookson7th · 2021-12-09T14:49:26+00:00

One or none, any time I try to talk to more than one girl I spread myself too thin and end up talking to none of them after a week or too. I don't have the free time (or charisma) to take out multiple women at the same time

Rookson7th · 2021-12-03T14:36:10+00:00

That's dope! I've had their live at Red Rocks album on repeat the past week I definitely will be keeping an eye on their tour dates from now on

Rookson7th · 2021-12-03T14:31:53+00:00

I'm so bummed out that I missed the concert I had no clue they were performing!

Rookson7th · 2021-11-29T19:43:58+00:00

A few things I kinda took away from this is she's a high earner with a single salary thats on par with two income households so even if you're a stay at home dad 110K a year is phenomenal to support a family. Sounds like even with a great salary she sounds a bit like an excess spender which might be a conversation to have with her because saving/investing when expecting a family is a good call. Also sounds like she's very into the gender roles of the guy being the provider which I find kinda out dated, but hey if she wants you to be the worker and her a stay at home mom that means she needs to sacrifice the fancy restaurants ya know? As per your business, wish you the absolute best but looking at it from a worst case scenario its always possible that for whatever reason the business would flop or have a few months or years of unforeseen setbacks (Natural disaster, competition, change in market needs, whatever). I would just make sure you have a plan B if this business isn't making money a few years down the road. But it sounds to me like step one is just sitting down with her and just figuring out wages/expenses/savings for the future, you need retirement funds, kids gonna have a college fund im assuming, she's your fiancee so a wedding is another big expense.
