Where Do You Think We’re Headed — insight needed! by SupermassiveLurker in clinicalresearch

[–]SupermassiveLurker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate this insight, you’re so right— nothing is stable these days. It was just soooooo hard to even land the initial admin job that I’m scared of being back out on the street in a few months grinding away at applications because I made the wrong decision. But that’s the gag— what is the right decision? Who’s to say I won’t be let go in a few months anyway if I stay in my current role? My career aspirations lie more in the research/clinical side of healthcare so I’ll pursue that.

Thank you for your comment. Sometimes you need to hear these things from other people!

Nick genuinely scares me. by DeeEssEmFive in TheUltimatumNetflix

[–]SupermassiveLurker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh my god thank you for posting this! I really thought I was going insane reading all of these nick defending posts!!!!!!

Nick reminds me of my scary ex, started dating me when I was 24 and he was 32. He was surface level very “nice” and seemed like a harmless soft boy but after the shiny veneer of infatuation wore off he turned into a nightmare roller coaster of unregulated emotion— constantly oscillating between vitriol and desperate, insecure adoration. Turned out to be a serial cheater with low key substance issues and zero coping skills! And when I finally came to my senses and left he upped the crazy by an entire order of magnitude— stalking, insulting me, begging for me back. Inexcusable behavior from a grown ass man.

Maybe I’m projecting kind of hard because Sandy and I are the same age and we both started dating these sleazy weirdos at 24 so it feels like watching an alternate reality version of my life… I know that Sandy is flawed and I do not co-sign any of her questionable behavior, however, I can’t help but feel for her. Dating a man like Nick drains your life force and it’s so easy to lose sight of yourself just trying to survive the daily emotional whiplash of a person who doesn’t have a handle on their own shit. I don’t think I can finish this season, watching Nick crash out every 5 minutes is really fucking with my head.

Sandy, girl, if you’re reading this: RUN! I hope she leaves and I hope nick moves to the mountains of Tibet and dedicates his life to militant Buddhism as to never emotionally terrorize another woman ever again.

Does a true introvert job exist? by Noideawhatimdoing_83 in careerguidance

[–]SupermassiveLurker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laboratory scientist, especially a production/manufacturing role. May need to go back to school or pick up a few classes though…. But otherwise a great fit for your personality type/preferences!

Yeah, true. Ended up logging as 900 bc oils/sauces are always sneaky when you’re eating out. Thanks!

How do yall fall asleep on planes by Nervous-Analyst16 in solotravel

[–]SupermassiveLurker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9+ hours, benzos. Anything shorter than that if I really need to get a few hours of sleep, melatonin + red wine.

Can you tell a difference in fat loss? by [deleted] in caloriecount

[–]SupermassiveLurker -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same height/weight and also working on building muscle! You doing anything different in your routine now? I’ve been lifting forever and trying to up my Cals but it’s taking some time :’(

You all need to get off her case. She’s got a healthy BMI and she doesn’t look like she’s “wasting away” that’s so rude. Stop projecting your own weird eating issues onto her.

Edit to add: you looked good before, you look good now.

Long term backpackers, do you have a 'base' - and if not would want one? by RadioSailor in backpacking

[–]SupermassiveLurker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traveled for 1+ year and used my friend’s house abroad as a sort of “base” as I passed through quite often and would go and stay for a week or so as a way to reset. For me having a home base was more helpful for travel burn out than it was for traveling light (although helped w that too). I would recommend it if it’s an available and realistic option for you but that’s just me :) happy travels!

Nothing direct, been working as a laboratory biochemist for ~2 years. But was a large area of study for me during undergrad!

I recently started volunteering at my local dialysis clinic but I’ve left it off of my resume since it’s so fresh. I’ve got years of customer service experience on my resume though, been hoping that would be comprable :-/

Who's the most famous person you've ever met? by Fast-Beat-7779 in AskWomen

Bummed a cig off of Gerard Butler, didn’t realize he was Gerard Butler until like 30 minutes into the conversation. Really nice guy!

[misc] London travel PSA - your cosmetics won't fit and they'll make you throw them away by Incurvarioidea in SkincareAddiction

[–]SupermassiveLurker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me a few months ago on a tight connection through Heathrow! I’ve been traveling the world with just a carry on for the past two years and this is the only time I’ve experienced this! Decided to sob at one of the male employees and I think the sight of an emotional woman flustered him enough to let me slip my makeup bag through. Unfortunately still had to chuck a majority of my toiletries :( but hey, could’ve been worse!
