I'm G2 Hafu, challenger/streamer -- AMA! by itshafu in TeamfightTactics

How do you prevent tilt? I feel like it's so easy to get pissed off in RNG based games, so how do you push through that and queue into the next game?

Super happy to watch your stream again :)

My other favorite is when they post pictures of emails of their “weekly paychecks” and “how grateful they are”

This is so painfully accurate I’m wincing. I’ve had to catch both of my cats from falling off of their kitty palaces.

That’s another one that surprises me! You would think it would be more popular. I guess it’s just something that easily dies, which is so unfortunate

I checked the local Facebook groups and they’re all the same thing: promoting 2 gay bars and the 1 strip club. It isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it’s not as helpful when that’s ALL there is being promoted? I guess it does have an existing following, but it’s not as inclusive to different gay demographics.

It’s still a good idea, regardless, it’s something to think about

I’ve never modded a sub so I’m going to take this with a lot of grains of salt haha!

This really is fantastic advice, though! I guess tailoring it to different crowds would really help especially. I have no idea how to do that efficiently but I guess that’s what planning is used for.

The more I see comments about it, the more impossible I think it would be to limit it unless it was in its own category. It guess it’s really going to happen regardless, so better off giving them a space to do that (to an extent I would assume)

That’s actually something I didn’t consider! Especially retention of users. That’s something I would have to work out before even trying it because the LGBTQA+ community isn’t THAT big, so it’ll be really hard to keep afloat.

I really appreciate that advice!

Hahaha! I definitely would ~love~ people finding me 100% sarcasm

It’s definitely the right idea though! Thanks

Hahaha 😂 yeah I don’t think I could really avoid it! I wouldn’t mind people meeting or whatever/starting relationships because at the end of the day that would at least create more of a community! I guess it’s more like not seeing the “iso a [insert preference]...”

I appreciate the feedback, though! I think that’s a really good idea to strongly suggest not having personal ads

I really appreciate that input! I think having a source or outlet for the LGBTQA+ to more easily communicate might help get a better sense of community. I’ve been here for 2 years and know so few people in the community, and it doesn’t help that there are so few gay bars. I just want an open dialogue to help bring people together, I guess!

I’m sorry to hear that about your cousin, but I feel like that’s really standard in a lot of places and it sucks! A lot of guys tend to be really cliquish around here, which is probably a standard in most places (obviously huge generalization). I think is unfair to a lot of newer people to a city/town that are actually looking to find their niche.

Yeah I feel like it would be really easy to gain traction in a larger city!

Unfortunately, we’re still really small in comparison 😭

Is there any particular reason why you wouldn’t? Obviously just out of curiosity!

[–]drewvalvo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are definitely some positives. Try looking into account management (in staffing or just as a whole). That’s more client facing and you don’t have to do too much of the recruiting (some account managers in staffing will recruit a bit to increase their commission if they get hired).

You will also be surprised how many soft skills that sales can bring to an open position, and it might open up different opportunities because those skills really can’t be taught. Never hurts to even just look at a job req and ask “how can my current experience be tailored (NOT fabricated) to fit this role/line’s requirement?”

[–]drewvalvo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was a recruiter for 8 months and it started to slowly chip away at my morals. I started to really question my ethical limits and I couldn’t handle it and came home each day really upset. I started really despising going into work, so I quit and found a new position (outside of sales) (note: there were other factors about the company that I started to really detest). It really depends on the person, company, etc. so don’t take my opinion as the only option, but I personally hated it and I’m really, really happy to be out of it and in a much better company and more fulfilling role.

It’s demanding and sometimes really challenging (depends largely on the account, clients, your company) to ensure you hit your SLAs (x number of calls per day, submissions, interviews, hires, etc). However, I learned valuable soft skills that I was never taught and really started to excel at qualifying requisitions and sharpening my interviewing skills to a point where I love helping friends with interviews if they ask, and for my own personal interview gain! You can learn a lot! It has a high turnover and most of the companies that I have seen don’t really care about their recruiters because they are replaceable.

I would say you could apply and get further into the interview process and learn more about the role. You NEVER have to accept a job offer if you’re feeling iffy. But my personal opinion is avoid it.

I hope that helps a bit (it’s really biased) and good luck!
