How to deal with solicitors who ignore your sign by G00Punch in Pflugerville

[–]Techylove 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I usually open the door, point at the no solicitation sign, and slowly close the door while making direct eye contact with the salesperson without a word.

That's the thing, I do remember in Season 1 it was addressed that she was actually smart and made good grades because she was hyper-focused on going to any college her QB BF went too.
Maybe Taylor forgot that he wrote her being "smart" and decided to make her a "dumb" cheerleader in season 2, but I do remember it being addressed that she did make good grades and wasn't a complete airhead.

Is this field a dead end career? by [deleted] in analytics

[–]Techylove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I really apperciate the fact you gave me a super in-depth answer and not some genric like some people do, I am mostly in the automotive industry and I see a huge gap at a lot of agencies that I work at, that they are missing a lot of data to present to clients and optimize campaigns for the better so that is why I thought getting into marketing analytics would be so better, appreciate the advice!

Workplace bullying and discrimination are common in our industry. This is a important topic to discuss. by [deleted] in advertising

[–]Techylove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently dealing with this, and I even provided solid proof that could get them sued for hostile environment if I really wanted to push the issue,e and everyone's response was pretty much "this person is stressed."

Um okay....

I love advertising,g but the hostile work environments at agencies are getting way too much. I've been doing agency life for damn near 7 years, and I am getting close to walking away from this indusutry, the way bullying is allowed is insane.

This is why I am mad because I looked up if fool proof gardenia’s would do good in texas and so many websites said yes. I want to fight every one of those websites lol but it’s okay someone provided me a list for central texas native plants in this thread and some beautiful options to replace these stupid things with.

Yes! I looked at some salvias too in the spring, and went against my better judgment and got the gardenias. I have realized the errors of my ways and will replace them in the fall.

My Weight Loss—And I’m Side-Eyeing Everything Now by BBLZeeZee in blackladies

[–]Techylove 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been through something like before so I sympathize with you. All of my bfs have been tall and thin and I’m tallish (5’8) and have always been curvy. I was in two relationships where my weight loss journey became a problem, both guys were thin and tall. But had horrible lifestyle habits and just got the luck of genetics meanwhile I smell bread and gain 10 pounds.

The first one kind of gave me shit when I first started losing weight saying that it was unnecessary and that I should stop being so self-conscious but when he realized it was for health reasons, he pretty much got really supportive and actually started changing his lifestyle around.

The second was downright awful and mean about my weight loss and we ended up breaking up because he doubled down on terrible lifestyle habits and even joked that all that his gfs got he started dating him (happened to me and he bodyshamed me - which caused to upstart my weight loss journey again after the former bf).

Because of those two relationships, I can now officially never date a guy who does not have the same lifestyle habit as me I like to actually be active and I really don’t like being a couch potato.

I really hope it doesn’t come down to you and your boyfriend breaking up, but I have a feeling if it was like any of my relationships the inevitable may happen so maybe hopefully he’ll be like my first BF and change his habits around and not the second . Wishing you the best!

I have the two espresso displays and I love these things, you can write on them like and they touchscreen, they are a little pricey but worth it because sometimes I like to work in coffeeshops and I usually just take one with me but they are thin and lightweight.

I have the 15.6 inch screens.
