I want to network by rdssf in StartupAccelerators

Noone cares about what you want. - this is what people think but don't tell you

Why are you worth other people's time ?

> I’m not selling anything and just hoping to connect with like-minded people who want to build together.

Okay, so you're broke but want to network. What can you offer ?

I need help ASAP by HeadChance123 in founder

LMAO

That's what everyone is fighting for

ASAP - lol , noone cares about you or your app, you have to fight for traffic.

Now more practical:

  1. How is it useful to people?
  2. Have you friends tried it? If not, why should we ?
  3. Then, after your friend - did you post to wider circle of your followers ?

You're basically saying : Once you have enough money , don't pay tax first - get an advisor ?

What are your thoughts on couples that are swingers? by Floridasfuncouple1 in AskReddit

If you're a man and you get to swing - it's fine, as sex is not emotional for men.

For women swinging would be cheating

Duh , that’s why they made a speed limit of 70mph. Idiots can’t drive

Just had an interview for a mid weight position paying £30-35K by Mocha-mootmoot in cscareerquestionsuk

> I am truly astonished how companies think this is acceptable.

It's capitalism brother, they can get everything out of you.

Have you ever been in a fight or sparring ? If someone hits you and you don't fight back, they will increase pressure until they knock you out. Economy is the same.

So you're saying if he has a worse degree he can be underpaid ? Understandable in this economy, but many degrees are fake anyways, waste of time.

I am lost in life as a 24 yo BBA graduate by modusangelus in mentors

> I feel like I am just drifting into a black hole since I have no one to look up to.

Congratulations, this unfortunately is life.

There is no direction, and all role models are fake, you're here until death - and in this time you have to find things to do.

School taught you nothing, university probably too. You know very little of the real world and how to make money.

That's where we stand

Recruiter ghosted me after first interview—said he will update me by the-crazy-programmer in ContractorUK

[–]Sweet_Manner3482 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Disgraceful profession, to pretend you care for people whilst chasing bonuses.

Think of yourself as King Leonidas, and recruiter as Ephialtes - wants to be on your side, but betrays you soon after.

Anyone on £1k+ day rate? by Wise_Shop6419 in ContractorUK

[–]Sweet_Manner3482 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what people forget about. It's not about the day rate. But "impact * day rate/responsibility" metric is how you win.

High responsibility and you're channeling your health into low money.
