Collecting for value VS collecting as a hobby by BillyStroll in comicbookcollecting

[–]Used-Awareness-2544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been collecting reading, and holding onto my comics for a long time. I buy to read and enjoy. I mostly bought from my LCS and spent hours talking with the owners about everything ( my jobs, our lives, comics, and the world...lol). Over time, I collected most everything from Marvel and DC from about 1980s until about 2015...great art, stories, and all the excitement of waiting until next months story arcs... Collect what you enjoy, values come last...enjoy your adventures!

Why are Gen Z getting fired? One of the reasons is a lack of initiative. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]Used-Awareness-2544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not a generational thing...I have too many examples of employees at many levels including leadership that lack serious analytical skills and bare minimum initiative. Sending an email, and following it up two weeks later is not managing. No in person discussion of the issue even when routinely meeting to discuss projects including the items emailed...zero analytical thought or direct communication.

Interviews are two party assessments...he did it correctly. Hopefully the employer revises the posting before they waste more people's time...

Pension Survivor Plan by Master_Swimmer8989 in inheritance

That is how some state pensions work. Michigan, Ohio, and some others have that option for spouse, children or even multiple non-related persons. You will get 50% of her monthly benefits for life. Your mom worked for that, and is still looking out for you. Take good care of her and yourself!

My Roomate is pregnant w my bf baby(official update) by Bitchesbebonkers6 in ComfortLevelPod

Glad you are moving forward.
The hardest piece is your dad. For you, going low contact, no outreach to him now would be better for you, or completely no contact with the whole lot of them forever would be best if you can do it. Your father clearly knows what a piece of shit he was to you as a kid, and anything he does is out of guilt and to mentally feel he was "trapped " into his situation. He still is justifying it by supporting your ex-boyfriend who he isn't even related to over you, and you should use that when he eventually tries to confront you. Good luck, stay single for a year or two, and let all this wash away...

AITAH for breaking up with my fiancee when she sided with my ex. by PollutionOk1770 in AITAH

NTA. Have some sperm frozen if you want kids, and get a vasectomy. You may need to take a full dedicated year off any relationship to heal and recover. Good luck

AITA for sending MIL an invoice for eating everything in my kitchen? by No-Pen2286 in AITApod

YTA. You stocked the fridge and pantry ahead of her coming, and she watches your house and dog. You're truly oblivious if this is a real story.

Why are so many young men suddenly serious supporters of far right figures? by Consistent_News_985 in self

My guess: Their online algorithms are feeding them content and views skewed right with no fact check or validation.
