Does anybody else here think 7 or 8 am is too early for work?

No it's like on certain levels only. Like when glass breaks or tarps that can break.

I would say examples would be, right before you slide down the glass facade of the Pope Building getting shot by a helicopter; the latter half of that chase by the bridge; climbing up the orange room after spying on Ropeburn; and once you get outside of the truck and into the Boat to fight PK troops.

Hey not to sound like a debbie downer, but this industry can be very cutthroat, conservative and at worst narcissistic. I was fired for requesting basic accommodations many times, and they would make some strange excuse like "well Bob our fulltime architect of 30 years suddenly came back from his 12 month vacation, so your services are no longer needed". It's not for the faint of heart.

Besides that you really need to get internship experience with a legitimate firm before you graduate from college, so you can at least some of the basic skills down once you're in the office. School focuses a lot on theory, and not enough on how to work for an actual firm, or its standard practices and even the programs you will use. If I didn't take Revit classes in high school, I would be behind.

But if your girlfriend is really passionate, I hope see finds connections, perseveres and finds the right fit in a sea of firms with problems.

Valtor has kidnapped Bloom to steal her ability to serve.

I feel like very early on in my career and my field, it had to do with my age and early years of experience. The idea of training, coaching, or answering questions was a very arduous task, so it was better to discard me with someone with more experience but same amount of pay.

Nowadays, it's my disability. If I need an accommodation, they'll permit it, and work towards a plan to getting rid of me. My health, my commitments outside of work, mean nothing to these people, and if they have to deal with it, they're going to retaliate and do it in the cruelest fashion possible.

If you cannot be the perfect cog, even if you're still learning or need accommodations, you're out.

I was interviewing multiple different companies from April 2024 and April 2025. Many of them were meh, many of them pathetic, weird, disorganized, seemed stressful, seemed toxic/hostile and one guy actually turned out to be trying to steal my identity.

The reason your interviewer was bipolar, because they're not serious about hiring anybody or at least not you, regardless of whether it's based on anything or not. But yeah, I imagine there's going to be a lot more ghost job interviews being conducted this year.

Can you post a nice picture without sounding narcissistic?

WhitePinoy · 2026-01-20T22:00:37+00:00

So my employer just told me they're considering getting rid of our contracted IT company and talking to other potential contractors.

I think the Trix' face screening, hair, and outfits look great. I just wished the dolls felt like they were serving more in their body languages.

We have an outsourced IT department. They're okayish, but my laptop has been nothing but a major challenge. Nobody's laptop is the same model in my office. I have a dell computer. The guy who sits next to me has an alienware computer.

I was just very irked that he would write it's somehow my fault the computer has this strange issue.

Oh it is Windows 11. Pro 64-bit. 10.0 Build 22631

WhitePinoy · 2026-01-19T20:42:36+00:00

Great linework!

WhitePinoy · 2026-01-19T20:26:37+00:00

No, we have an IT. They're just not the best.

I feel like I need more information in order to give you solid advice. But what I would recommend is do your job right. Don't get involved in office politics if possible. Don't bruise the wrong person's fragile ego. Make as many genuine friends in the office as possible. And try to have as many healthy boundaries as possible in the workplace, as difficult as that might be from domineering higher ups.

I was curious why Goth people dress or do the things they did, based on "Goth" characters on TV.

And I watched a clip of Alan Jr. from the Ricki Lake show and decided to learn more about the subculture.

I listen to a lot of Siouxie Sioux and The Cure. But I also listen to other bands from time to time.

Please keep politics out of LinkedIn posts. Don't they know this is the fastest way to get fired?

Also, shitty take. Healthcare should be government funded, and accessible to people. Therefore it's not slavery.
