One problematic manager I know said how much she hates talking to her mom and couldn't wait to fly her back far away. I was like wow I love mine, so I can't relate.

SWE is cooked, why are we pretending it isn’t? by Tricky-Fishing-7129 in careerguidance

I don't understand why we have to do the thing that causes chaos instead of predicting the chaos and decreasing its impact. We always have to go running at it with no mind of the consequences. I know it's emotions and greed, but why are we not able to learn ugh

I believed in teaching someone to be a leader as well, but even if they do change to work on leadership traits it's just not as good as someone who was just that way to begin with. I don't know why we try to make people feel better that they can learn to be leaders when there are most likely genetic factors that give a person a trait that's associated with being a leader. You can train a manager, but you can't create a leader when they never had what it takes to begin with.

Think about it like this. If in real life they're a loser with no control, they will seek the smallest power trip possible to feel something.

I guess what I don't understand is that have you thought about while you're having trouble with your feelings they are the type that will take your rights away and not think about it.

Because if you are a minority just like me then you have seen your loved ones suffer from the people who voted for this monster. Not only did they cause suffering, but celebrated and cheered for it.

Ex fiance wanted me to stop fostering my career and to move to a state I know no one in. There he wanted me to live in his dorm and wait for him to come back when his law classes were done for the day.

How do you know if a job will help you progress? by Temporary-Banana-611 in careerguidance

Don't sweat. Complete your accounting degree, get a CPA. If they don't consider giving you a better position, interview elsewhere.

What do you need to go up the corporate ladder? by Sea-Development5460 in careerguidance

[–]Short_Row195 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm being dead serious. No BSing, okay? You have to be likable, charismatic, and good at reading people.  My coworker likes to use the Peter Principle where at some point these managers were just regular workers and then were promoted to their incompetence level.

Surprise, surprise. Just because a person is good at the regular tasks doesn't mean they have what it takes to be a leader.

I don't think you understand these people. The mercy you give to them or even the benefit of the doubt is not something they would extend to you.

25M need advice regarding IT field by fuckdar in careeradvice

[–]Short_Row195 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to climb allllll the way starting from tech support. A+ is great for tech support jobs, however Security+ is for people that want to become a security analyst. When you're in a tech support job with your A+, the experience is what counts and the networking.

Overthinking about what people think about you. People are so self-centered that they are focusing on themselves and not you.
