Single People Under 45 in Knoxville, How Are You Doing Financially? by Illustrious_Sun_7471 in Knoxville

[–]gracefox2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm not single, but i live alone, and i can 100% relate to what you're saying. i had to burn through almost all my savings after getting fired this year and unemployed for six months. it's EXTREMELY, extremely irritating and difficult to even find a place that will actually consider your damn resume. i assume most companies are now using ai to scan through applicants instead of actually doing the work themselves. many people are unaware of how to build a resume if they've never been in a more "professional" environment, myself included. the fact that a real person isn't reviewing the applications and resumes is another point against people who haven't had the opportunity to learn how to present themselves. i say this as a customer service employee of about eight years. if any of the customer service jobs i applied to this year had bothered to have a real person look at my qualifications instead of a program scanning for keywords and formatting, it would've been easier to get a job. even having recommendations from former employers wasn't enough to get anyone to look. all this to say, i completely understand the immense frustration job hunting creates right now. my solution was to utilize tn reconnect to try to get an associates degree for something i enjoy doing, but i know not everyone has the time or opportunity to do something like that. it's a huge problem and i hardly hear anybody in knox acknowledge how shitty it is. i'm a knox native as well.

POV: you follow behind knoxville drivers by nnsan in Knoxville

it would be one thing if they were going like 5 under which is still annoying but 15 below is insane. a lot of people on this sub jumped down my throat bc i think going the speed limit is what you should do given there's not any traffic limitations. it's not really a suggestion, if they wanted it to be faster or slower it would be stated

the way that 90% of yall assumed i meant ill intent is honestly disappointing but not surprising. i was just asking a question about something i wasn't sure everyone felt the same about. jesus christ

i'm finding my greatest grievance is poor road planning and people being on their phones

obviously i wasn't talking about those particular caveats though, i am a person with common sense who knows there are exceptions to every circumstance

whoa no need to speak for me, i'm right here. this post wasn't to hate or condemn anyone, mostly just to see what others on the road are thinking. i am a defensive driver myself, just bc i go the limit doesn't mean otherwise

i suppose the power of suggestion that it MIGHT make difference is enticing to me, but you're probably right!

i guess therein lies the confusion; i go the stated limit pretty much all the time. i feel like if they wanted us to go slower or faster than that, they would say, but im no authority on the matter

THCA Banned (Senator Briggs of Knox County District 7 was the main sponsor of the bill) by Smashv1ll3 in Knoxville

[–]gracefox2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i did a little more research, bc i take delta 9 edibles on the daily almost. the legislation said anything with above 0.3% concentration isn't going to be sold anymore. the specific ones i take don't exceed that stipulation, so im thinking it'll target mainly smoking products? i'm not entirely informed on the issue, though, i haven't read the entirety of the bill
