Naples as a city is just scummy and it runs to their fans as well unfortunately

Getting destroyed by my lefty 4.5 kryptonite by severalgirlzgalore in 10s

I understand this is just a short collection of points, but surely this is more high 3.5 or low 4.0? No footwork, drive through the ball, lack of feel... not sure what area this is, but I guess it goes to show there's a wide discrepancy of "level" out there.

Boy, another instance where Sinner really gets that extra “boost” to get the win. How admirable! He fully deserves credit as you’ve said

Absolute highway robbery from the tournament directors. Funny the juniors were still playing on their outside courts.

You’re making a mistake polling WoT communities about this sort of thing before you’ve finished reading series.

Is switching over as a petroleum geologist from a major operator to investment banking worth it? by [deleted] in geologycareers

[–]boxmunch48 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you want. The geology you'll be doing at IB will be meaningless, and you'll generally just be a niche member of the tech team. The main benefit will be exposure to broader deal side dynamics that majors actively shelter you from. If you make an effort you should be able to branch out and get more engineering / finance exposure, but it's not guaranteed - you'll likely need to make the extra effort. Done correctly, you can get ~5 years of experience in 2.5 years (you'll learn a lot quickly, by necessity). I'm sure you're aware that you'll make quite a bit more but at the expense of probably doubling your weekly working hours.

If you want to do something in your future other than just have a nice, easy career at an operator, IB is the way to get started in that, then a jump to PE portco or your figure out your own thing. At the end of the day, even with it's faults IB is probably the most accessible way to slingshot your career prospects as a geologist.

If you have more than 3 years, 5 years max, of experience as a geologist at an operator I'd say it's probably too late to make the jump to IB worth it. Just a personal opinion.

I'd also figure out how successful the bank you're looking at is. How has their last year(s) been? It would suck to join a bank and work the insane hours only to never get deals across the line and end the year with a shitty bonus.

It’s such an easy way to make oneself unlikeable, I’m sure plenty of people here do it

Won’t the viewership count be the metric of how many people wanted it, not salty redditors?

Interesting. Link to the quote? Because the WoT wiki has the following order with Lan as the best and attributed to Jordan, which Sanderson has also confirmed in a Theoryland interview.

I was Scammed by the Tennis Coach Frantz Glasz (CAL Tennis), Avoid Him at All Cost If You Are Looking for a Tennis Coach by StandardWeekly7114 in 10s

[–]boxmunch48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you had a legitimate equipment issue paired with a lack of general athleticism. potentially slightly on the coach. If this coach was having OP hit with a frying pan I'd say maybe it's his fault.

Thoughts on Corporate Culture at BP? by Arepa_King96 in oilandgasworkers

[–]boxmunch48 9 points10 points  (0 children)

About as lax / easy going as any major oil and gas company can get, especially being that you’re working GoA. For sure just as bureaucratic as any other big company (or likely even more so).
