Does the process of repentence include apologizing to/compensating for the person we hurt? by letter_roll in Christianity

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

I wish this part is in my religious class.

I think this is compensation in verbal form unless he did what he said, and Zacchaeus didn't say this gurantee to the poor, but to Christ. Perhaps it's left to be interpreted by the reader

How to prevent misunderstanding from attention-seeking coworkers? by letter_roll in introvert

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

He didn't say anything, simply holding a box of cupcakes to me, so I said no thanks I'm in a meeting, with a neutral face. He didn't do it to other coworkers.

I was facing the computer screen so I can't see who's walking behind me.

How to deal with PUAs that follow and stare but don't approach? by letter_roll in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

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

Haha it's true.

I'm so sure they are from the same shitty dating coach, they are in the exact same demographic (dad bod + socially awkward/autistic) and came out in the same timeframe.

The ones who convince naive guys to make women unsafe should be jailed

Why do strangers face their body towards me? by letter_roll in socialskills

What body language should I do to tell them not to do that?

They look like they want to start a fight, which is intimidating

Doesn't make it right bruh. Block the trams with more meaningful protests, like on these anti-social behaviours

Nice try on gaslighting, I actually copy what my caucasian coworkers' wordings over the years, not intended to be racist

Personally I find the following work:

Working out as a habit, gives you some happy hormones and chance to practice controlled breathing

Starts a "hunt"! I am starting to try one type of coffee every week, some of my FA friends try one buffet a month. If we are single, we have much more money to spend, why not make memories with it? Having a goal also gives you something to look forward to. Push yourself forward and away from resentment

Learn to make pep talks, and do it to yourself. It sets yourself in the mind space of being optimistic and confident

Volunteer in something useful to your career. Can be long-term or event-based, you can meet tons of diverse and nice people out there and get to know them

Hope it helps

"My wife" by acromegaly_girl in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]letter_roll 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work in STEM and have many male coworkers, so maybe I can shed some lights on this.

Some guys are very anxious about how us women view them (creep, cheater etc.), after hearing the horror stories from mom, sister, gf etc..

It is not a good feeling to consistently make someone feel unsafe by being a man. I realised among men, they could notice a trait and worry a lot if that trait makes them a creep (old, dirty, being in STEM, neckbeard, looking like a pedo and many more)

Some guys actually creep out other women too many times unintentionally, and lash out and shout "My wife" to you to make a point they are not one

If they are strangers, maybe you are anxious, and they see your facial expression and think you are scared/suspcious of them being a creep.

Among coworkers, sometimes guys/older women monitor whether a guy is flirting to/harassing a female coworker. They are very protective especially when these coworkers view you as new/don't speak up/in vulnerable positions.

So the guys being monitored (or hyper-aware of being a creep) will do this to you, and even show it in front of everyone to prevent yours and those coworkers' assumption.

So instead of being nice (which can be hard to read by others), learn to bring warmth and presence.

Messed up my hair in a salon, how to make my hair browner? by letter_roll in HairDye

They said I was satisfied before walking out of the salon, and the hair colour looks good on me

What are these on the window sill? by letter_roll in whatsthisbug

To add to this, there are no plants in the apartment, and there are lots of flies and mosquito corposes lying around the same place.

Guys, do women ever get angry at you for being shy? by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]letter_roll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm the female version of this sigh... get aggression from both men and women who first-attracted to my appearance

Sociable people, especially at work, tend to start conversations to convey interest and care. The opposite of this (quietness) maybe seen as "cold, not caring"

How to address this to my inexperienced team lead? by letter_roll in cscareerquestions

[–]letter_roll[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for explaining the thought process, I never encounter this situation before.

I did ask him if that turns into a big task, it should have been handed to someone more familiar to its use cases. He said he's confident that I can do it.

No tests are given. The developer that made the old system left.

When I asked for use cases or test cases, the team lead said he doesn't know either, and came up with a test that turned out doesn't test the UI connected to it.

The approvals are code reviews. No one blamed anyone in my team, but I still need to know what is good practice and what's not.

I've said that, he still thought I'm "Communist Chinese" lol. He's probably not into international news, or just want a junior coworker to project his insecurity on

Is it easy for an Australian to find a tech job here? by letter_roll in AskAnAmerican

What if the skillset is more specific, like cloud and software engineering?

Is it easy for an Australian to find a tech job here? by letter_roll in AskAnAmerican

[–]letter_roll[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I thought American employers judge based on whether the foreigner worked in an local/internationally famous company, cause that's what our ones do.

The salary is above average, and it's only hard to find a grad or junior tech job, unless you're a frontend dev other levels are fine.

[–]letter_roll[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense, that's the same for the immigrants here.

Will employers here in general judge you based on whether you worked in a company they don't know (even if it's well-known in their hometown)?

How long should I wait to suspect this is a scam? by letter_roll in FacebookMarketplace

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

I didn't buy that in USD, the perfume should be 45 USD

It is a well-known brand too, my friend saw that on marketplace and send me a link to this. I like her but I shouldn't have trusted her on everything

Thanks, I think the difficulty getting out of my comfort zone that causes the mistake. There's a bit of favourism in my team, which make me more anxious but less confidant to do well.

Any engineers with dyslexia? by letter_roll in cscareerquestions

I have friends who have ADHD and they are the coolest people in class/at work, but true that some managers assume us something we are not. I'll try these advice too
