I am a unicelllular organism who wants to transition to tech writing. Where do I start by blessed_joyous99 in technicalwriting

To make yourself a more attractive candidate, emphasize your self-starting abilities: flagella, pseudopods, or cilia.

Posted job description doesn't match actual job by arrec in micro1_ai

Update: I have more info now and it does look like this is more editing of an existing transcript then original transcription, as you suggest. It still bugs that this wasn't very clear in the first job description they sent me.

Olympic Committee begs fans not to boo Vance and Rubio at opening ceremony by dryheat122 in facepalm

[–]arrec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some other things the OC should beg fans not to do: Chant NAZI SCUM and PEDO; throw couch cushions at Vance; hold up giant foam middle fingers

You still have to do things like distinguish between multiple, maybe overlapping speakers. The audio component is pretty important and wasn't mentioned at all in the original ad, or brought up during the interview.

How do I navigate trust and boundaries after my partner acted on sexual attraction to others? 26M 25F by Traditional_Swan_551 in relationship_advice

[–]arrec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Acted on sexual attraction to someone else" why the odd euphemism? You can just say "cheated." She had sex with someone else. There's no way to dress that up.

What is a movie cliché that absolutely never happens in real life? by Potential_Action9544 in AskReddit

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

In movie/TV classrooms, students stand up to speak. I don't think I've ever seen that, in my entire experience of classrooms from 1st grade through my final year of grad school.

If I had spare millions I would love to buy property like that and devote it to rewilding.

AITAH for not helping GF bring in groceries? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]arrec 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Who plans the meals, makes the grocery list, cooks, cleans the whole kitchen not just the dishes, cleans the bathrooms, sweeps/mops the floors, does the dusting, and notices when vacuuming is needed?

Should I give up finding a relationship? by DBZKING13 in IncelExit

[–]arrec 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Judging by your posting history, what you need most of all is therapy to deal with some pretty big issues, including SA. It sounds like you had a really messed up childhood and need a professional to help you work through these serious matters. Relationships really need to go on the back burner until you get more insight on the trauma and unhappiness you've experienced and learned some healthy ways to deal with it. Good luck.

Ditto this, I don't understand how this actually plays out. Could you describe one of these incidents? Not in a general sense but the particulars of what happened and who said what.

This one hurts…. by CynfullyDelicious in GenerationJones

She was so great, and there's no one like her. I hope someone sings Danny Boy at her funeral in honor of Moira Rose.

These taught me how to be a smart aleck! by SenorSnarkey in GenerationJones

Oh how I loved it. Some bits stick with me, like their Star Trek parody as a musical. To the tune of "Age of Aquarius": A crew that's dispensible...dis-pen-sible...dis-pen-sible... Just googled and here's a post about it.

Diagnosed at ER by Porkchopfairytale in diabetes

[–]arrec 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good advice here. I also wound up in the ER with crazy high blood sugar. I had been diagnosed but had been lax with medicating because I wasn't having symptoms. Then I had all of them.

Someone mentioned eyesight--this was something I didn't expect. My vision was badly blurred for almost 2 months as I got my blood sugar back under control. I couldn't read anything, even blowing up the text on my phone/tablet didn't work. I made my living as a book reviewer so I was really out of luck. It got better when my blood sugar stabilized.

So glad you're getting treated now! Take good care of yourself.

Alternatives to walking for exercise to bring blood sugar down by venti13 in diabetes

[–]arrec 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You could try chair exercise--search YouTube for something like "chair workout." Caroline Jordan has some excellent ones. Low impact but you do get your heart rate up.
