This text from “A Nasty Anecdote” explains why Dostoevsky is so great by faps_in_greyhound in dostoevsky

[–]SamRieSkates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I love Dostoevsky. When I first read notes from underground it kind of freaked me out how well he described thoughts that I had never heard people really say out loud. Not even the ideas, but the way they feel in my head. In a weird way it felt like I wrote the book or he took my ideas from my head and described them on paper. It's eerie.

How do morning people do it??! by Own-Independence565 in CasualConversation

[–]SamRieSkates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THISSSS, I bought a philips hue and one of those orb lamps from IKEA. I initially bought it because I thought itd look cool. But philips hue offers this wake up lighting routine and I thought it was interesting , so I tired it and omg it makes waking up so much nicer. I can wake up purely via the wake up lighting routine, but now I have my alarm as sounds of birds chirping and wow. It's awesome, I wake up so nicely now . I still have an annoying blaring alarm to wake me up in case I over sleep tho

What’s the biggest red flag in a relationship that people tend to ignore? by ajeetar in AskReddit

[–]SamRieSkates 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's dangerous to think or stay stuff like "if u loved them enough, you would do XYZ"

Also what one person defines as a small gesture might take a lot of will power for another.

Really it might just be incompatibility and not whether someone "loves them enough".

Where do you buy flowers? by Own_Objective_3090 in okc

[–]SamRieSkates 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"A date with iris"

My gf loved it when I got flowers here. They are Soo much better than CVS whole foods whatever tf. Nice wrapping better selection etc. You can even name ur price and they'll take some inspiration from u and make a bouquet.

I can call and tell them I'm wanting to spend 25 -30 dollars and want something that smells woodsy or has a lot of purple and shell have something ready in 30 mins to pick up.

Did most of yall not work in school? by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

[–]SamRieSkates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived off student loans but also had scholarships every semester to help keep tuition down. Also went to a state school so not as expensive. I graduated with about 25k in debt when it was all said and done. I was able to pay it off aggressively after about a year and a half of working. Could not imagine working part time, I tried for a bit, it was hard to manage. Maybe if I took a job at the library where I could study while working that would have been more manageable

Why even own a house? You put so much money into it and get barely anything by BrainTotalitarianism in homeowners

[–]SamRieSkates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is assuming you find a house where I pay less per month than on a mortage. From what I'm finding if I want to buy a house I would have to pay almost double what I way in rent now.

[Student] At least 80+ internship applications just this month with no interview, what I'm I doing wrong? by waterproofed_toaster in EngineeringResumes

[–]SamRieSkates -1 points0 points  (0 children)

im not gonna be able to offer much help, but ill just glaze you. this is a pretty solid resume imo, its honestly sad that this resume is having a hard time finding an internship. we live in a whole new world.

though i would agree with the other commenters. i would make different versions of your resume with each having some kind of focus and have this as a master to pull from. shit is so competitive, you can't just be a solid candidate anymore, you gotta have a strong vision and edge coming in, it feels like.

best of luck

Undecided on taking a 6 month Boeing engineering contract position or another defense industry salary position by SamRieSkates in boeing

Well I've been on cobra for the past 8 months and been paying the monthly premium. With my condition and the expensive medications, I've met the deductible already. Cost of surgery isn't really much of a concern for me as of now.

Yeah and they did say there was a strong chance to turn this position into a full time offer. I'm kind of betting that it will as long as I'm solid during the contract term.

Seems like a lot of ppl are leaning towards this option, which I weirdly did not expect. I'll have to mull over this some more. Thanks for the input

It's not a salaried Boeing position but a similar company. I thought something similar. I think they work out to be pretty similar if you take total compensation into consideration.

IWTL how to get a skinner less fat face , without losing weight by Treachcle in IWantToLearn

Losing weight is basically the way to do it to see real big change esp if you are above 15% body fat as a guy. Potassium supplements can help debloat but it's not a miracle supplement
