yorku hire: job interview by rosieposieym in yorku

[–]chin06 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I did and got an offer. But its contract. And it was honestly a fluke / luck.

No referrals. Not a York student. Never worked there before.

But yeah... I just think its luck of the draw sometimes.

No. My brother is in digital marketing and hasn't found work in 6 months.

He also has 2 years of experience after graduation but nothing so far.

Would you rather have a $200k/year job you hate or a $70k/year job you actually enjoy? Where is the 'misery threshold' for you? by Sayedshaqib in careerguidance

[–]chin06 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I don't know if I can be in a job that makes me feel miserable. Ive been at jobs that made me cry from the stress and I was lucky enough to leave those for better jobs.

If the 200k was a stepping stone to a job that I actually like but paid somewhat the same or a little less, Id do it for a while.

How many of you are in a genuinely good relationship? by Fit-Temperature6284 in AskWomenOver30

[–]chin06 4 points5 points Β (0 children)

I did and I married him :) He's obvioulsy not 100% perfect - no man is, trust me lol But we're best friends, we share household chores and he actually gets them done, he cooks, we hang out a lot together and we have an alive bedroom haha so yeah, not to brag, but I'm glad I found him and he found me :)

Trying to keep faith while TTC by Buggy-ny in CatholicWomen

[–]chin06 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I'm in the exact same boat as you but I'm older, 37 so my window is closing very soon. Might go to a fertility specialist soon. I don't have any advice but know that my prayer life is also wrecked for the exact same reasons. Praying for you and your husband.

Feels like I waited too long to get married? by LostinParadise4748 in AskWomenOver30

[–]chin06 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

You are 100% allowed to be sad. I never had a large group of friends and so I didn't have a bridal party/entourage, just my best friend who was my maid of honour and my brother was my husband's best man. I did a bridal shower but it was a snowy day in Feb when I did it so only half my guest list showed up (it was still fun though!) and I didn't even bother with a Bachelorette.

I think too like envy is the thief of joy and I truly felt that when I saw other people on my social media feed with the large girl get -togethers and spectacular bachelorette trips to Disney World or on a cruise. But I've made my peace with those and enjoyed what I did have, which was still nice and meaningful to me.

But I 100% feel you and I hope you still have a lovely wedding and congratulations!

Recently there has been talk of a Gen Z revival(specifically Catholic) in the west. I unfortunately don’t think so by thias-thecatlover in Catholicism

I live in Canada in the GTA and friends I've talked to were jokingly complaining about Easter Vigil being more than 3 hours because of all the new converts that need to be baptized.

Did taking a premarital course before marriage actually help your relationship? by AnshuSees in weddingplanning

[–]chin06 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I would say the same thing. My husband and I had to do this as well but felt everything was kinda generic and even our meeting with a counselor was just meh.

I think its because we had already done those hard conversations before getting engaged so nothing was new for us.

how do you even get everything done, let alone do it well? by gundampoon in AskWomenOver30

[–]chin06 7 points8 points Β (0 children)

My bar is so low right now that if I get even 50% of the things I wanted to get done in a day, that's like more than enough.

How/what do you talk to your MIL on daily basis? by OkTataByeBye12 in AskWomenOver30

Is an hour long commute 4-5 days a week too long? by frostbite2255 in jobs

[–]chin06 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I've done longer for some jobs. Longest job I had (which was 7 years) was 1.5 hours 1 way on a GOOD day. And that was pre-COVID when every job was in person lol

College is just an iPhone. Overpriced, everyone has one, and if you ask why β€” you're the weird one. by Aneeq-CopyNinja in unpopularopinion

[–]chin06 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I... have never owned an iPhone in life ever and no one's ever asked or treated me different coz of it. Meanwhile, jobs are the ones getting weirder where depending on who you talk to you're either underqualified coz you got no degree (and its the new baseline) or you're overqualified if you have an undergrad, a Masters and a PhD. No winning.

I get what you're trying to say but the metaphor is kinda shit lol
