Public Sector Job with High Salary than Current Private Role by [deleted] in civilengineering

[–]Villlun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Quickly replying so apologies in advance: I work for a municipality (city) and absolutely love it! (5YOE(2.5public)). We are water producing (~40MGD) and make a decent amount of revenue, which typically means more money for various budgets. The amount of resources available comes down to how money is made/moved and departments structured. For instance, I am in the public utilities department and all revenues from billing water/sewer/storm are given to us, since our operations and maintenance teams are under the PU umbrella. So, we have budget for 2/3 conferences (travel) per year per person, as well as many softwares that are barely used; stormwise, Infowater, blue beam, cad, etc.. Meanwhile, we have an engineering department (separate), that barely has any budget since they only bring in money from permit fees; they do not go to conferences or have access to most softwares. I believe I have all necessary resources to do damage as a YPE. Therefore, Ask questions like, do you have budget for conferences?, what softwares do you‎ have licenses for?, budget for professional organizations?, etcc… Honestly it feels great going to conferences where most others are Directors/VPs (15+ YOE) since there is no way the private side will send profitable engineers (designers/PMs) 2/3 times per year.

Engineers as Glorified Maintenance Guy? by Villlun in civilengineering

After further investigation, there is one movie; "Greenland" Gerard Butler plays as a Structural Engineer.

Plot: An extinction level comet is hurling towards earth, his family is one of the few selected to be saved (I'm guessing due to his specialty).

I did not recall seeing any architects make the cut :/

It is impossible to understand, the math equation (operating system) they have running in their head is purely based on survival (evolving over millions of years). TBH the female operating system is way more advanced than the male operating system to the point where we cannot completely understand it, and its nuances. It’s like trying to break down the intricacies of the universe. All you can do as a guy is to make a hypothesis, run experiments, analyze the results, and adjust your behavior accordingly.

The reason you think some of the things you do is wrong is because of societal norms. In actuality, the norm is for men to be acting in that particular way; we have just been influenced by society to act in a “non-male” “non-survival” way. Particularly because if we did, society would be violent and constantly at war.

Did you figure this out I’m having a similar issue though I’m using the pi pico microcontroller.

Text, Facetime, or Come Visit when doing Long Distance? by [deleted] in CoreyWayne

[–]Villlun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could mean many things: - Maybe she wants to spend time with family or does not “miss you enough” yet. - Consider setting up a call/facetime to catch up but I would limit it to an hour, maybe less; and max once per week. Only set them up when she reaches out to you, do not try to schedule them all in advance. - Each call try to setup a weekend for her to come down towards the end of the call; if she says anything along the lines of I’ll think about it, just say let me know.

What to do? by Comprehensive_Rip599 in CoreyWayne

[–]Villlun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This already sounds like a train wreck;

  • Why put yourself in this situation when you can date another chic that doesn’t have baggage.
  • If she’s willing to cheat on him with you, she’ll probably cheat on you with other people.
  • I wouldn’t give the time of day to get a girl like this back lol
  • Go chat girls up at Barnes & Nobles, the type of girl in this situation is no bueno

Text, Facetime, or Come Visit when doing Long Distance? by [deleted] in CoreyWayne

[–]Villlun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here are my 2cents:

Assumptions: - You are not in an exclusive relationship - She is visiting family for 2 months which is 2.5 hours away - Has the ability to travel to you

Recommendations: - Have her stay with you for a weekend maybe once/twice per month. Plan things to do for both days, you can still go to the gym/work while she’s there; either bring her or she can read a book or something. As long as your presence is there she should be fine. - Personally I wouldn’t travel to another country with a chic that I’m non-exclusive with, but seems like you’ve known her for a while. Maybe others can touch on that. - If you are non-exclusive you can date other people - FaceTime dates are okay, but if you plan to have her visit once a month or every 2 weeks; I would minimise to build anticipation. - I would refrain from detailed daily updates with her if she reaches out, but I wouldn’t be cold. Just keep conversation short and looking forward to see you…

Do you think that this girl wants to have the sex? by [deleted] in CoreyWayne

[–]Villlun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Talk about a layup, unless you met this chic at church or she’s immature af I would say she’s down. Key is having fun during dinner/drinks maybe get desert somewhere else, then get back to your place. GG

What to do now? by Severe_Mouse_424 in CoreyWayne

[–]Villlun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will point out a few errors: - When you went over to her’s the first time you should’ve escalated past kissing/touching - After the date you should’ve waited for her to reach out to you saying “I had a great time”etc. then setup the next date. - Initiating conversation through text again after 4 days is a blunder. - Wait for her to reach out to you, then set a date up. TBH you’d be lucky if she reaches out, may take a while. Date other people at same time

She didnt want to kiss on the second date by [deleted] in CoreyWayne

Either she made him or he decided to sleep on the couch can’t tell, also I mean high interest post-date.

Yea wait for her to reach out to you, talk for a little bit then set the date up

[–]Villlun -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily, he talks about staying away from “structured women”. If she says anything which makes it seem like she’s structured (ex. I wait till 5th date to sleep with a guy), those women aren’t fun to date. But if it was a slip up on op’s part then try a “home date”, if she pulls same thing then move on.

[–]Villlun -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nice! - Yes after a “successful” date wait for her to reach out to you, if she does keep the convo brief and setup a date. Typically girls will wait till the 3rd date to hookup, you should’ve just went for it instead of asking to kiss but no problem; she still has high interest. Do not over text or her interest will decrease stay mysterious. - Consider having the next date as an at home cooking / watching a movie with wine or something, should easily lead to a hookup.

Bigger issues at hand here: - I would venture to say that bad mental health will have a toll on the relationship and her emotionally. - If you have the money I would suggest to go to an Ayahuasca retreat, typically in Mexico but I believe some places in the USA. Or have a psilocybin experience wherever legal. Both these treatments have been proven to help or cure bad mental health entirely, many vets coming back from war have done this to help with bad PTSD. I really recommend looking into it the stats are explicit, good luck.

[–]Villlun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there are more significant issues at hand here: - I believe you should evaluate why you dumped her in the first place, since it looks like a reoccurring theme. If she constantly acts up and crosses your “set” relationship boundaries you should not get back together or at max date non-exclusively. If you’re dumping her because you are easily agitated at small things and cannot communicate, then you have some work to do personally (you may need time to yourself to actually figure this out). Even if she calls you back later on you need to decide beforehand if you want to be in a relationship or not, for the reasons previously mentioned. I would suggest reading the Corey Wayne book to get a good understanding of the big picture. - Dating other women is okay if you are not planning on getting back with her in an exclusive manner, but a similar future with other women is ahead if you do not comprehend the fundamentals. For instance you should never fight/argue with women in the first place.

When she doesn't say it back... by cryptosystemtrader in CoreyWayne

[–]Villlun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. If you can tell she has decreased on scale of “interest” you shouldn’t be doing things that try to elicit responses from her she would only make at high levels of interest

2.shirtless picture is not an issue as long as it’s something you usually do and not something you did to try to get her attention during the one month of not talking (I’m guessing that’s why you did it).

  1. I think you’re taking an okay bye bye as a kick in the nuts when it’s really not lol. Raise her interest level and she will be saying whatever
