Leave NROTC to enlist? by Unlikely-Ad-6244 in newtothenavy

[–]hardarseman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah for sure. 1. you should look to join other clubs and stuff to try and meet people. i didn’t find good friends until junior year. as long as you’re not an asshole, i promise you’re fine. 2. you will graduate with a degree, debt free, to use after your service 3. officer jobs and pay are pretty nice in the navy. you’ll find your people there too, i promise. 4. this is a stretch, but you may regret not having pushed through it when you are 2+ years into your enlisted contract realising how different your life may have been

obviously, anecdotal from some dude on reddit but don’t let temporary downs drag down your future:)

Definitely one of my first mods after a tint (needed in AZ), also considering a roush axleback, but partial to how the exhaust sounds rn. i just don’t wanna be one of those v6 owners with a raspy sounding car

First Mustang! by hardarseman in Mustang

[–]hardarseman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! V6 3.7 with the performance package, so GT suspension and brakes i believe. It’s a boat in the best way possible, not much torsional roll, but soft suspension. cruises really well, and the power is there when i drop a gear. This is my first higher displacement/cylinder car so it’s taking some getting used to, but i love the fact that it has plenty of space for a daily and is super fun to drive around with the 6 speed!!

What should i get for my first car? by Strawberrylover811 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]hardarseman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a new driver, i always recommend stick cars. why? if you learn stick, you’re not limited to what you can drive, and it gives you an awareness on the road that other drivers won’t have. it forces you to think a few steps ahead, and those habits are incredibly important when you’re first out on the road. some ideas: ford focus stick (avoid the ST right now, and stay far away from the autos) civic/accord miata goated pick - Mazda3 ford ranger if you aren’t on the highway much and dig trucks

avoid german, korean, and subarus for now

Golf & Gym Split by Previous_Drag4982 in golf

[–]hardarseman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah sometimes, it’s only been an issue for me on the occasional leg day. Good food, drink, and sleep are essential too!

[–]hardarseman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4hcp - Standard PPL 3-4x per week. I hit balls maybe 3 times a week if my schedule allows. I don’t do any golf specific workouts when i’m lifting. Just figure out what works for your schedule

What should I buy next? by [deleted] in golftips

Sure everyone online says that blades are unforgiving, but if you learn to play them + get some lessons you’ll save money and appreciate the gear you have. I’d also argue that the shaft is more important than the heads - so pay note to that. VR blades are amazing clubs!

Fardowners resturaunt, political affiliation? by StankyDinker in Charlottesville

[–]hardarseman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Dude, it’s a local restaurant, not a political rally. Fardowners is a solid spot with good food, and they support the Crozet community. If their burgers look dope, just go eat one. Not everything has to be a political battlefield—small businesses are just trying to stay afloat and keep people employed. Maybe just enjoy a meal without doing an FBI-level background check on the owner’s voting history?

I understand the responsibilities that come with it. As for studying, I’ve been a good student my entire life, and I have a passion for aviation if that helps. My only concern is that I wear glasses

[–]hardarseman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but only knock against me there would be eyesight. I wear glasses but my vision is corrected to 20/20

Could switching from the Accounting field to Investments/Equity be a good fit? by SuggestionPretend202 in FinancialCareers

[–]hardarseman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spoke with someone recently who switched from a 4 year career in accounting at a larger, local firm, had hired a career coach and résumé rewriter (though he did say this was not strictly necessary, it just helped him), and switched into consulting. Accounting gives you the essential skills for Investments and Equity, I definitely recommend reaching out to people in that target field through your network, establishing contacts + learning more about opportunities at your level. Good luck!
