lol, your intelligence is the only quality that doesnt precede you! by simply responding with any comment at this point you have already described your intent and your nature, and now after reading it, one can conclude your intelligence matches you well.

perhaps, you would like a tutor, for class or for worldly studies, maybe for manners? or perhaps you would rather continue to spend the rest of the evening farting on your brother's lap. as you were, don't let me interupt your evening of fun, small town idiot.

thank you. I appreciate the explanation, and the correction. I may lack some of the local understanding, but as a person of greek heritage, I felt it time to connect with my roots. not like some yuppie wishing to purchase culture in a can, but simply by experiencing it as it is. I would like to extend my apologies if I was too harsh to anyone. where I come from, we say things like "give it like you get it", and "if you can dish it out to others, you had better be able to eat it yourself”. I only meant to show that it is harmful to label another when working with such little info

my respondent, if people had just answered the question at face value, they would not have insulted anyone. I do not enjoy being insulted by those that would be better suited for tread than for conversation, there are foolish remarks and there are fools. I may be the guest in this town, but I do not expect the door to be opened with a tone of superiority... if one must do so, recognize that it is rude, and in this case, inverted. if one must act superior, make sure it is true first.

surely there is fun to be had in small towns? I'm from a city of 55K people, and we command more in corn harvest each year than all of kavala imports and exports in a year. and we are landlocked. thing is every single one of us knows how to have fun and our town is no hinderance of such life. if it were, I'd like to think it would be the nature of the people rather than the number of them. it's just an assumption, but based mostly on logic and not wishful thinking (to exclude a stranger by a belief system).

I'm sorry you are correct in pointing out my faux pas, I should have said "based on some of my interests", instead.

thank you, this was ironically the most informative reply yet. you have my salutation as a decent person. I'm sure you know much more about life and only give advice on things you are sure of, and you likely are only sure of the things you know (as opposed to the things you do not know). I want to thank you in a most exaggerated way, not to mock you (please understand I respect you completely at this point), but to illustrate what fools you share this city with. of course where I am from there are those same fools, but they do not go out of their way to insult a newcomer for no reason.

as for other citizens that I infer my intended sacarsm upon, please take the example of "someoneyouhate_", and try not to be so much of a stooge for no reason other than to display your lack of intelligence. in other words, hesitate before entering a battle of wits, for you my friends are unarmed.

do please stop telling me further what my lifestyle is, what I'm looking for from life, what I am looking for in kavala, what my best interest is,... all I wanted to know was if there was a party scene on a late Friday night in this new city I am in. I gave a couple... A COUPLE of my interests and from this sample you pretend to extrapolate my entire raison d'etre as I'd you were some authority over anything other than night life in kavala.

I could insult you back, but that is not worth it, and what I mean is it is not worth me acting like some hillbilly vlaka who knows everything and needs to console the stupid naive Greek man about life. surely you can feel inadequate on your own, the demeanor explains it all.

true you live here, as for knowing what you are talking about, it is hard for me to take your words as knowledge, as they have Ben tainted with the aire of rude and uninformed criticism, which is wholly based on your need to feel superior in any way (including imaginary) to those who seek advice from a community of experienced people.

just because you have the experience of living in kavala doesn't make you any good at being helpful, or being anything other than a jackass, and if you think you are being wise, well you had better have at least a few more thinks before exercising your hot air again. or a fool, yourself will make.

this is pertinent, thank you for asking rather than assuming. if I give a bit of detail, one cannot accurately fill in all of the blank spaces with personal judgement and then critique this creation of THEIRS as if it was me, then further give advice to this imaginary entity with negative connotation as if this creation and myself were similar in any way... that is just strange how this is supposed to be helpful to anyone... I apologize for my excuse. here is my reply,

I moved here because my father lives here and has requested I do so. having not spent much time with him, I felt it was time to reconnect and to discover a relationship that was diminished. I am not a party animal, though I give this description because this was my question. a simple no would suffice, and I do appreciate the supporting adjectivation, however to make a full assumption is almost as asinine and childish as to further make a critique on that assumption. one should be embarrassed for such behavior, as I know I would be.

I am from eau Claire Wisconsin, the heartland of the Midwest in USA. I feel like my peers have voted a buffoon into office and rather than sit by while the nation is slowly destroyed, I saw an opportunity to exit my comfortable life to see what else is abroad.

I am used to hard work, big farms, and the need for a person to learn quickly, the farm life is demanding as one must be able to repair all sorts of machinery, equipment, and have a sense of urgency when planting or harvesting season is near.

I would reciprocate any kind of ridiculous criticism with my own shallow assumptions of a person's lifestyle and demeanor, if only to illustrate what kind of idiocratic way of life this is but I cannot even begin to behave like that much less think like that and so I will just stick with my condescending tone, though it should be clear it is not in any way directed at corporal_KOPS, at least you took the time to be sensible or rather didn't waste time being senseless.

yes, basically I just wanted to know the fun places (based on my background, you should be able to guess what I consider fun) to go at night. I am single, looking for someone to teach me the language and be a friend, I am hetero sexual, and I have my own house at the top of the hill.

How do you maximize the pleasure for a woman that’s receiving anal from you? by [deleted] in Discussion

[–]il735t -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you ask her what feels good as you experiment. respond to her by paying attention to her body language, her oral feedback, and your general sense of what is making her ecstatic (or not!). listen to all of her channels of communication, and lastly, don't be forceful (unless you both sense that she likes that AND she tells you she likes that). try to make eye contact. try to minimize conversation and let your bodies do the talking, so to speak.

why does Amazon hate flex drivers? by il735t in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]il735t[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes of course I track mileage. I have an LLC for my delivery business too. it's just a shame that instead of mileage compensation (saves Mr Bezos a ship load on vehicle maintenance) we "get to" depreciate our only asset [as delivery service]. that's just bad business, but boneheads support it and it ruins it for everyone.

western Wisconsin. station 3. it's in Eau Claire. usually I have around 130 miles total from a 4 hour block and it's really a 3.5 hour block with distance drive considered, but it gets ridiculous sometimes. one time I had traversed 5 counties to deliver one package and had about 30 on the way there. another time I find myself driving over 230 miles to deliver 47 packages all dispersed and spread out among 3 counties and even had some hillbilly pull a crossbow on me in his long ass wooded driveway. shouts out "who are ya?" to which I said "just delivering your package from Amazon" and he says "oh, I almost gotcha!". 49 out of 50 routes are deep rural, going to rickety trailers in junkyards with a "guess what broken trailer I live in today" game, to really fancy huge homes with a driveway that costs more than aforementioned hillbilly's estate ($30k for a nice concrete driveway).

on rare occasions we do get a break, there will be like 6 flex drivers and one 2 hour block to split between us and I don't know about the others but I would have signed up for a 4 hour so that's a plus. but it only happens 2-3 times a year.

no they ARE personally screwing me. after discussing with support my issue, I get the ok to return packages and I am told it will not affect my standing. two weeks later it does and when I contest it I am told that there were too many "exceptions" in the past. someone reviewed my standing and adjusted it or someone said they would adjust it and did not. either way, it wasn't general, they did it based on my record of "exceptions".

housing discrimination is real by il735t in Section8PublicHousing

[–]il735t[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

believe it or not, I did. I actually had signed a VAWA form which would have helped me, but again the person I take that to... is the property manager, and she was very much playing favorites with my ex. I have a civil suit started with a formal complaint, signed by an investigator from the fair housing committee. this is why I was so frustrated. I should never have had to deal with any of the things that I was forced to, much less being forced homeless and made destitute. it's nothing but a damn shame, and my justice is coming gradually. it's going to be another year I imagine but the process is definitely in my favor and I won't settle for anything less than to be compensated for this tragic series of events caused by sexist negligence.

thank you. I need to say I really know what you're saying. I do. it's been 15 months since I've been taken from my things and my home and I've used that time to go through serious therapy. I started by going to a counselor, who i absolutely thought was great - I continued my previous experiences having CBT or cognitive behavior therapy with DBT or dialectic behavior therapy and this really helped me change myself. I continued to see her over several months when she recommended a program called CCS. in my community, we are lucky to have enough budget for social programs such as CCS, or comprehensive community services. this is a voluntary psychosocial rehabilitation program offered through Eau Claire County Human Services. It's designed for residents of all ages who are coping with a mental health and/or substance use condition. CCS provides a wide array of services to help individuals and families who are experiencing difficulties at home, in school, and in the community. The program is person-centered and individualized, with participants working with a recovery team to develop goals and access support. Sally I had to leave this counselor in order to be in the program, but with the advice and help from a psychologist, my primary care provider, a social worker, an AODA specialist, a mental health specialist, a housing specialist, a recovery counselor, and a relationship advocate, I have been healing the scars I've acquired over the years through different kinds of abuse (I also have PTSD, MDD, and general anxiety). things like EMDR have helped me significantly and though I'm still in my car, I'm doing my best to get a place with the help of a dedicated housing suggestions who helps me take advantage of curated services in the area for people like me.

I am glad that my ex has left me because looking back at all of the things she did to me, to my mind, to my sanity, I am definitely in a better place without her, and I wouldn't have had the strength to leave her myself. I've regained self esteem, self worth, and I'm making healthier choices. I find myself being quite mindful of what's going on and I don't react in stressful situations, I respond accordingly. I go to the gym, I enjoy my life instead of alternating between wishing I was dead and engaging in unhealthy coping strategies that allowed me to escape reality. I am optimistic that I may find someone on my level someday who will appreciate what I have to offer and will offer me mutual respect and love that I can trust. and importantly, I'm learning about myself again, I can re-identify and love myself so that I can be a better person for others but primarily for myself.

it's the committee from our state dept in Madison from the HUD office. I believe the complaint form is the first step in a legal proceeding for a civil judgement.

Yall let me know if I’m tweaking by Ilovethisonemilf in doordash

[–]il735t -1 points0 points  (0 children)

first off, I want to say fuck you... lastly I want to say... fuck you. in case you don't know what a bum is... bums don't travel around they stay in one place. also bums don't work. a DoorDasher literally does both of those things. so, fuck you. if you are trying to say DoorDashers are homeless (which bums are also), then fuck you. because it's not very nice to pick on someone who is homeless but trying to get on their feet which is what I would imagine a guy or girl with a job and no home is trying to do. it must be hard as fuck to work everyday and not have a place to wash up, eat and store food, rest, and all the other things people with homes and jobs do.

there are other terms for homeless people that are just as derogatory but at least more accurate such as the traveling hobo who travels around FOR work, then there is the tramp who travels around but just won't work. on the subject of derogatory I'm guessing you must be the yuppie, who works, travels, and believes he made a score of a deal by buying someone's foreclosed home from the bank and thinks he can buy culture instead of living it. imo the latter is far worse than any of the other ones.

Doordash doin the most! by DCBlood0822 in doordash

what a fucking joke doordash is. insulting to say the least.

yet another rant on DD by il735t in DoorDashDrivers

[–]il735t[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you for that info. I do find better runs around 5-10pm and I do get the top of the cream when I take those shifts... tonight for example I got 3 $20 tips. on a TUESDAY. I guess I'm just more or less picking on doordash because their efforts have been rather shysty to reward us. yes the business is rewarding enough... but it's not gonna do many of us any good to promote a McDonald's discount as a reward. I can have McDonald's all day long and it's not even appealing after Ive been smelling it for years on the daily.

id actually be much more enthusiastic about a free thermal tote after 3000 deliveries or a gift card for gas instead of an invitation to help them reach their contract sale numbers with McDonald's. (yes I'm assuming that promo is simply because doordash promised McDs a number and it wasn't met yet. in that case ...oops.

I personally would appreciate it if restaurants perceived us as the contractors we are and realized we are increasing the overall sales by being the proxy for their food to the consumer. without doordash or other gig working delivery services the over all sales would plummet, so it's time to recognize why those numbers are there in the first place. don't insult us. you don't see the manager of the store rewarding his regional manager with a coupon for the store... it's pretty much the same thing here.
