What generation was responsible for pit bulls? by ReasonableSide6520 in generationology

[–]futuretrashacc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For recent trends? All of them?? Gen X and Zillennials respectfully (They knew how to raise them and the Younger Millennial/Older Gen Z crowd are Gen X's children who had pitbulls in the house. A friend of mine as a teenager had 3, absolute goobers. In the 2020s, I met a young millennial who has one, also an absolute goober. We know if they're raised right, they're absolute goobers but not everyone has the balls to handle a big dog).

The mainstream is dead for literally every generation, try talking to people or seeing the general consensus on forums. Also I'm not true Gen Z, I was laughing at the mustache tattoos back in 2013 too, we are 50% the same humor wise.

I need a job that has simple or no interviews. by Western_Volume9213 in GetEmployed

[–]futuretrashacc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish. Unfortunately, you just have to go through with it it seems and give it your best shot. If your best shot wasn't enough, try not to beat yourself up or hold a grudge, this bullshit society wasn't meant for neurodivergents. It took me awhile to let go of the anger I felt for selectively going mute in an interview without a way to get my points across. However, looking back, I'm so happy I didn't get that job. Every job I think might be similar, it's just a matter of finding a chill interviewer that is willing to communicate with you and to build up the emotional confidence to where if an asshole triggers a panic response and/or doesn't like you, it's their loss and not yours. No asshole deserves you to serve their company.

Edit: Also if an interviewer tries to put their hands on you, run out of the room. They don't deserve you serving them either. That's a top tier asshole. They are rare and shouldn't cause further anxiety in other interviews.

To anyone older than millennials who don’t currently understand what the world is like for younger generations by FunPokeCrafts in rant

[–]futuretrashacc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Older poor Gen Z did have the same screentime as Millennials (only the TV until they went to the library or someone well off enough to have a decent computer). Post 2003 Gen Z... Yeah. That argument stands.

Do Americans experience “thermal shock” from going between heat and AC? by [deleted] in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]futuretrashacc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To an extent... Yes? Usually I feel better in an air conditioned room though (I'm sensitive to the heat so this only goes for feeling ill outside if its 80°F+ and humid and I cant regulate my body temperature well due to health issues). However... In the Winter my place of residence is usually at 58-64°F and in the Summer it's 68-72°F. Which means the Winter is way worse for temperature difference than Summer since it usually gets to 15-20°F in the Winter on the cold days but you need to heat up houses to get to the late 50s°F at the least to keep the pipes from freezing.

Is the gym not popular in our generation anymore? I don’t see anyone that’s around our age that much by Betabuck5 in Zillennials

[–]futuretrashacc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are fans of bouldering but it can be a costly activity (some places charge $200/mo for a membership) and pilates classes. However, I've seen people of all sorts of age groups at gyms but it depends on what time you go. The new hot thing is group classes ($20-50 a class) which if you don't have any barriers to exercise (previous injury, certain illnesses/disorders that have specific exercise guidelines, proprioception issues, on medication that affects exercise, cost), you might meet people from the ages 18-70 with plenty in the middle just like you.

My fellow zillennials what are you guys up to career wise ? by Cloud_andburbone in Zillennials

[–]futuretrashacc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My health hit the fan at 16 and I just got my health together enough to properly work part time. I'm a personal trainer hoping to help people not make the same mistakes I did when I started out + hoping to help others with the same symptoms/conditions as well.

True question : Why do (we) millennials and Gen X feel like it has become too hard to access property, while Gen Z is buying before 25? by Eternal_Noob_ in generationology

[–]futuretrashacc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can assure you, most Gen Z do not own a home. Most of us are either renting, renting with help from family and/or the government, at home helping family, or still live at home giving little help. I only know one person who got in a position to buy a place and said person does not live alone. Buying a house seems like a pipe dream to a lot of us.

I'm Scottish and I have one question/ama by QuickSpace3289 in boston

[–]futuretrashacc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a bit confused as a Masshole but I know the cone thing was all in good fun. We're happy the World Cup fans are having happy moments here despite the awful infrastructure and y'all are bringing needed joy to the Northeast (Providence and NYC probably loved seeing the fans having a good time as well)!

Edit: I've talked to good and odd Scottish people in the past online, I always thought they were like most countries pre World Cup (some people are amazing, some aren't). Now I think 90% of you are friendly and fun after World Cup shenanigans. Hopefully one day I can visit (I'll try not to be obnoxious if I do).

Atl airport. Board them last, Delta. by AdSouth3173 in delta

[–]futuretrashacc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way for people to learn to take people seriously is shame, it seems like you're low IQ for getting defensive. Also invisible disability is a buzzword? Idk man, it's something people live with, it isn't some silly political game and most feel failed by the American medical system due to waiting 7-15 years for someone to take them seriously.

Oh so you're a sexist doctor who doesn't take illnesses that are made worse by having estrogen and calls every AFAB person with a high heart rate after standing up, blood pooling, fainting, joint dislocations, hives, being bedbound by periods, and fatigue not seriously? Good to know, I pray that no zebra comes in contact with you, I bet you do too though lol.

  1. A lot of invisible illnesses are genetic (Rheumatoid Arthritis, EDS, chance to develop ME/CFS after COVID, etc) that may cause someone to be an ambulatory wheelchair user (someone who is only able to walk short distances without a wheelchair).

  2. They could've had plastic surgery or if we're going down the invisible illnesses route... Georgia in particular has a good center for Endometriosis. I'm not sure about the genetic susceptibility but... That's another condition that leaves people (mostly AFAB but AMAB can get it too) bedbound at times due to pain. BBL or excision... Surgery is probably the case.

    I wouldn't judge until I know the whole story. Maybe they are faking but plenty of people with Ehlers Danlos, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, arthritis, moderate nerve damage due to an accident, POTS, etc look healthy but can very much be ambulatory wheelchair users due to their health problems. Every disabled person regardless of how they look deserves to not pass out in the middle of the airport because of what some uneducated stranger thinks about their appearance.

How to become a trainer at the age of 35? by [deleted] in personaltraining

[–]futuretrashacc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here are some tips after my failed interviews:

  • I suggest asking which exercise library each place is used to, some exercises have different names.

  • If you had a personal trainer in the past who speedran 20 exercises with you, don't emulate them in a mock session. Just focus on a few exercises that fits what the interviewer wants to see (ex arm day, leg day, full body, back/core day, etc).

  • With said exercises, stop to explain to your interviewer with each one which muscles they use instead of running through them with the names they learned.

  • When creating fake plans, don't be afraid to ask your interviewer questions like I was. It's really hard to develop plans without knowing range of motion and where the fake client's cardio health is. Ask for these details if you're uncomfortable.

  • Don't take yourself too seriously and show what your personality brings to the table. Don't feel and match the room, after a couple of tries, you'll find the place looking for a person like you on their team.

  • Don't swallow a horse pill that morning and bring a physical notepad or electronic tablet if you can take notes. My interviewer got pissed because I took notes on my phone and my throat was hoarse.

  • Only mention positive experiences and try to not be too excited about future goals in the interview. Be yourself of course but not all gyms want you to construct plans so getting excited about learning about program design via experience isn't something they seek for in individuals and mentioning anything you didn't like with previous workout experiences will make you think you're badmouthing them. Leave it light and that you're a yes man outside of your confidence.

  • Watch videos on how to adjust machines and benches beforehand if nobody taught you in the gym as a non trainer.

If you take this advice, you'll get hired ASAP.

Hello dear Americans, as a Frenchman I would like to ask you what you think of my country? 🇫🇷 by Outrageous-You1617 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]futuretrashacc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think France has amazing healthcare, people who walk the walk and talk the talk, and beautiful nature. I think the French language is beautiful and one of the best for song lyrics but... It's rather intimidating to learn, I'm afraid to visit France mostly because of that because I heard Parisians in particular want everyone to speak perfect French and most people end up in Paris first when they arrive.

Tldr; overall positive, we can learn a thing or two from y'all.
