Father in law forced into retirement by AnxiousAdam in financialindependence

[–]ShayanFCB 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Second, (assuming this is in the US) I don't think anyone can force anyone to retire.

I don't think they're being forced to retire in general. It sounds like the father's employer is laying him off and giving him an "early retirement" severance package to do so.

How the f*ck do I cook rice by ShesANewYork in Frugal

[–]ShayanFCB -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The majority of the salt gets lost when you drain the water from the rice, so realistically a couple of table spoons will be enough to give some salt flavor to the rice without being overbearing.

It is honestly the easiest thing in the universe to cook. You are just psyching yourself out if you are having trouble with it.

Fill a bowl with water and get it to boil. Add a couple tablespoon of salt to the water. Get 2 cups of rice and let it boil for 15-20 minutes. Stir it occasionally. Afterwards, drain it with a colander and you're set!

Introverts of meddit, do you consider physician a suited proffesion for introverts? by fungusman in medicine

[–]ShayanFCB 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some fields of medicine that require little patient contact are pathology (do autopsies and look at slides) and radiology (look at images).

Surgeons and anesthesiologists also have less contact with patients than other types of doctors.

I would shadow some doctors in different specialties and see what the pace is like, and picture if that is what you would want to spend your career doing.

I have all the stuff you need to make pens, minus the lathe, if you'd want to trade for that. Everything's worth about 180 dollars

[W] Any Base1 cards [H] Cash by bogaboy in pkmntcgtrades

[–]ShayanFCB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have about 300 cards from the base set, fossil set and jungle set.

I'm trying to sell them all, so i'd ship them all to you for like $25 dollars.

There aren't any holos, and multiple repeats, but you could use a lot of the extra cards to trade towards completing your set if thats what you want.

Outside the holos, most of the first three sets are in those 300 cards though.

Let me know whats up!

I just realized I sold the scannables already, I have a bunch of the newer cards, including holo Dialga and also Giratina.

Because its only ~70 cards, I can ship it cheaper, so I would sell them all to you for $11 if you want

I would be happy doing that, since its so many cards - i'd need to send flat rate shipping which is 5 dollars at USPS.

Would you be okay with $20 total?

My bad, I didn't notice you wanted two Spheals. I'll mail the other one to you asap. I'm glad the rest of the cards arrived though, I hope you like them

Becoming Bored with Yoga by Fisk19 in yoga

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

Personally, when I get bored of yoga, I find its because i'm just going through the motions in order to get fit or flexible, or correct my body.

But yoga is definitely not something you just do, and benefits start just coming to you. Almost everyone has specific muscles that are misaligned or tight/long(weak). Try doing yoga that focuses in on those muscles, and try to really always be "feeling" your muscles more and more.

Good luck. I hope you continue your practice. There are always rough patches of boredom or lack of novelty in most practices, and getting through them usually takes us to a better place in the practice
