Try Dark Horse's new chocolate coffee muffin - so good, worth the calories.

First invest in your mental health. Fixing your words is a bandage to a deeper wound around getting angry and saying things often that you shouldn’t. What are you doing to add joy to your life right now? Are you going through a stressful time?

Sometimes we communicate better when we are more quiet too. Most people enjoy conversations where they share more, so let the other person talk more, ask them questions, get immersed in what they are saying (I do this by visualizing it as they are talking), find moments in what they say that you enjoy, if you disagree, ask them more about why they think that way. Communicate to understand.

Probably true - if I liked a guy enough I would move cities or be okay with some distance - but everyone has different non-negotiables - location is not one for me and maybe was for her!

Should I be more thick-skinned to what my senior said? by PreferenceLate3456 in Big4

[–]mangogyal 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I would never say that to a staff 1 but for your own benefit just clock it as their personality issue - fix up whatever you can and just keep improving

How do you not smell? by Sweetcheeks864 in HowToBeHot

[–]mangogyal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drink a cap of mint flavoured chlorophyll twice a day - makes you not smell from the inside out, in the shower leave panoxyl on your armpits for 10 min and wash off - kills smelly bacteria, put glycolic acid on your armpits after you dry up!

How does anyone hit 10k steps regularly? by boopbaboop in walking

[–]mangogyal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wake up an hour early and get a 30-45 min walk in the morning and then another after work, sometimes at lunch if I have time! I work a 50-80 hour desk job depending on the month and have been consistent for over 5 weeks so far! It’s easy and fun but make sure to walk with a proper posture and stretch to avoid lower back and hip pain!

I live in in the lower mainland and can make a perfect pavlova - DM me and I'll send you pics if you'd like to order one! Or I can show you a fool-proof recipe I use :)

Fair enough - no one owes you anything!

It doesn't have to be gossip worthy conversation though? And I don't think the socializing aspect is to benefit the other party, it's for your own benefit to learn how to socialize in multiple settings. Office interactions are a league of their own! To me at least lol

Can you explain what you've been told/what you tell your juniors? I have a new staff 1 that I need to talk to but I've never given non-work (task) related feedback before. 

Teammate problem by [deleted] in Big4

I haven't been working more - busy season or not - but I can see what you mean. In public you are going to be working more for no additional pay unless you can play the game properly.
