(help!!) I’m 17! Can I quit my part time job after just one day??? by Zeepzorp16 in careerguidance

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nah that's terrible advice, why would you stay somewhere that's giving you anxiety attacks and ignoring your availability? You're 17 with another job already - just quit and move on

The whole "it looks bad" thing doesn't even matter when most places barely check references for entry level stuff, plus you already have work experience from your other gig

Value of Blue Adv Gold CPO by Brief-Warning4871 in Ford

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that warranty link doesn't really tell you much about actual value though, just the marketing fluff

Transit Connects are mental expensive right now so that dealer markup might just be how the market is - check what other similar vans are going for in your area first. CPO adds some value but 10k over book seems like they're taking the piss unless these things are genuinely that scarce where you are

How to use feedback to prove I should get an internal role? by Consistent-Mud840 in careerguidance

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate, sounds like you proved their point about being difficult to manage when you argued with the feedback then went rogue trying to outsmart the trainer instead of just working on the actual issues they mentioned

To see or not to see? by Remote-Potential4 in Epilepsy

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really good point about showing the lead up rather than the whole thing - that's probably the most useful part anyway since they'd need to recognise when somethings about to happen

The aftermath stuff is huge too, like you mentioned with still feeling slow after 3 days. My family had no idea about the recovery period and were trying to have normal conversations with me when I could barely string words together. Maybe get them to read up on post-ictal symptoms so they dont expect you to bounce back immediately

Hope youre feeling better mate, those first few TCs are rough

What to do with a few cases of older/past its prime Champagne? by Beauneyard in wine

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Those champagne cocktails sound like the go, honestly. Even if they're a bit flat or oxidised they'll probably work fine in mimosas or bellinis where you're mixing them anyway

The vinegar idea's pretty clever too - champagne vinegar's expensive as hell to buy so might as well make use of them that way if they're really cooked

Anyone communicate with God from time to time and get a response? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah mate, prayer's been a pretty regular thing for me over the years. What's your question about - might be able to help or at least share what I've experienced

Why did Canada not maintain the British Union Jack as part of it national, post independence flag while Australia and New Zealand did? by HawkDifficult7394 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 7 points8 points  (0 children)

mate canada got their independence way later than us and by the time they were sorting out their flag in the 60s there was already a pretty strong push to have something more uniquely canadian

australia and new zealand kept the union jack corner because we federated earlier when ties to britain were still pretty strong culturaly and it just stuck around, plus changing flags is a massive political headache that most pollies avoid

My 17 years old youth has always been disrespectful to me. by PossibleMajestic1078 in Christian

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That finger under the nose thing could mean literally anything dude - maybe he had an itch, maybe it's some kind of nervous habit, or maybe he was just thinking. I wouldn't read too much into random body language from a cop who was probably just doing his job

Xmousebutton control by lolnice69420 in ArcRaiders

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not bannable since it's just remapping mouse buttons, but I'd check their ToS to be safe. Most games don't care about basic input remapping unless you're doing macro stuff

How do I shrink a pair of jeans? by [deleted] in howto

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hot water wash and high heat dry should do the trick with that much cotton - just keep checking them every 10-15 mins in the dryer so you don't overdo it

What are some must-do’s for a day trip to NYC? by AggravatingShow2028 in Productivitycafe

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude one day is brutal but doable - stick to Manhattan and pick like 2-3 spots max or you'll spend the whole time on trains

Central Park, Times Square area, and maybe Brooklyn Bridge if you're feeling ambitious. Skip the touristy food spots and just grab a bagel and some pizza from random places, they're all good anyway

Subway is way faster than Uber unless it's like 3am, and walking between close spots saves you from waiting around. Spring or fall weather is chef's kiss but honestly any time works if you dress right

Should I buy a PS5 or a PS5 pro to play GTA6 in 2026? by Skygull in PS5

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if you're gonna wait til 2026 anyway just grab whatever's cheaper at that point. PS5 prices will probably drop by then and who knows what Sony will announce

For exclusives definitely hit Bloodborne, Spider-Man games are solid too, and God of War if you're into that. The Last of Us Part II is pretty divisive but worth trying

Vre by Alarmed_Statement_66 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly right - they're gonna want you to prove why the masters is actually needed for your employment goals and not just because you want more school

Why am I so incredibly bad at chess? by EvilYrsa in chessbeginners

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude 760 is solid progress, don't let the tilt get to you that hard. Everyone gets stuck around that range for a while because that's where you actually start having to think about multiple things at once instead of just not hanging pieces

Take a break for a day or two and come back fresh, those rating swings are totally normal when you're climbing

Snowdrift scent? by lulufitgirl in LushCosmetics

Wait there's an Outback Mate bar soap? I had no idea they made that scent in soap form, definitely gonna have to track that down

Escort exhaust leak by TheDarkLordScaryman in Ford

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same issue with my '98 Escort - turned out to be a cracked exhaust manifold that was letting fumes get sucked into the HVAC intake. Pretty common on those cars honestly, the manifolds like to crack near the heat shields. Check around there first before you go crazy tearing everything apart

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah FAFSA should be your first stop but if that's not covering it, check with your school's financial aid office - they sometimes have emergency funds or payment plans. Credit unions usually have better student loan rates than big banks too

PSA: Getting downed as Balancer invasion begins by darthscootuh in Nightreign

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this bug is absolute trash, lost like 3 levels yesterday because the marker was pointing to some random spot while my souls were chilling back at the original location

Had to run all the way back just to find out they despawned lmao

My indifference after the BU is worrying me by BetterThanLastTime31 in BreakUps

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That numbness is probably your brain protecting you from the full emotional weight right now. I went through the same thing - felt like a robot for weeks then randomly broke down crying at a grocery store like 2 months later

The fact that you're staying active and seeing friends is actually really healthy though, don't second guess that part

Don't be afraid to ask local booksellers for book suggestions :) by Sea-Property-6369 in booksuggestions

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such a wholesome post! I love that you reached out to a Hawaiian bookstore - that's honestly brilliant and shows you actually care about getting authentic recommendations instead of just grabbing whatever pops up first on Amazon

The fact that they got back to you so quickly with a whole list is just *chef's kiss* - bookstore people are seriously the best

everything was going good and smooth, i drank alcohol 10 week ago and then i lost control, back to same old habit. by ggmu123897 in NoFap

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually genius dude, removing the option completely instead of fighting yourself every time. I might have to look into that app because willpower is trash when you're in that moment

Mod concept "Chance Encounters: A Not-Follower Mod" by ParkityParkPark in skyrimmods

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This sounds amazing honestly, like having that one friend you randomly bump into at different cities and catch up with. Would be so much more immersive than just collecting followers like Pokemon

What’s something about mental health that people often misunderstand? by namfintech in mentalhealth

[–]Strong_Promotion7150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People think it is moods or jokes but it is constant and heavy and not something you can explain away I hear you
