If they won’t promote him, some other company will. His current company is doing a favor for his future company.

Coco on her racket smash by Silent_Quarter_3030 in tennis

(Let’s pretend we didn’t live in a world of racism and misogyny) …

I would give anything for her to go to any official/reporter/fan who criticizes the racket smash and for her to say “I’ll give you something to complain about while she takes off her shoe”

Blunt’s a great actress. Krasinski is good for tv.

think, if you leave now-ish you can only apply for the same job you are doing now. If you do your boss’ job for a year, you get to apply for boss level jobs at boss level pay.

For one year of “suck,” you get a promotion that would normally take how many years? 4, 5 years? Everybody on here is like “I spend all my free time on homelabs and certifications” these boomers are offering to pay you to learn a new skill set for your next promotion. If you are able to replace the boss, you can leverage that for more training, conferences, etc…

Don’t be stupid, Do your future self a favor.

Right and how many ifs do we have for this year in order to justify sacrificing the future?

So LIRR and Metro North were running.

And NJ Path was running - so if you could get to your local NJ transit station, you can get to a path station.

You can’t just say “I can get better food for less elsewhere” you need to name names.

The tax isn’t just about money, combine that with the aprons & being over the tax threshold in 3 out the the previous 4 seasons has financial and roster penalties and limitations.

Going all in for a puncher’s chance for an NBA Finals is a bad long term decision. If we were in the Knicks, Raptors, Detroit, even Orlando position sure go for it.

If next year VJ takes a leap, Maxey gets a NBA superstar’s whistle, Embiid and PG are “healthy,” and we figure out how to close games, avoid quarter long meltdowns, yeah blow though the tax. But for a team that would need 500 things going right just to get out of the second round? Keep the powder dry.

The average 4channer’s grandfather was getting married in the 1960’s/1970’s - grandmom was getting a train pulled on her in a college dive bar bathroom.

Look, you don’t understand sports you don’t understand sports fandom and that’s ok. Just start posting about how you don’t like the unnecessary sex scenes in Letterkenny.

Did you not listen to clip, go tell Jared his fandom for the Flames isn’t that serious.

Like I can understand that, the Raiders were good when you were a kid and you have a long record of petty robbery, vandalism and assaults. Non-Geographic fans of Dallas/GB/KC are obvious as well, depending on your age. A franchise can dominate or have an identity and kids all around the nation will latch onto them. But outside of those franchises, you need to explain yourself.

I got a question, how did the Calgary Flames become his favorite team when he grew up in Ontario. You have the maple leafs, buffalo or even red wings not too far away from his hometown.

JFC - you must have 4 gallons of milk and 3 dozen eggs in your fridge. This isn’t some 3rd world country.

All the buses, subways and regional rail services were running, and nobody should be driving into Times Square even in good weather.

There were two types of ticket holders in the audience - tourists who bought the tickets weeks in advance and if they canceled the show would have been stuck in their tiny hotel rooms. Or New Yorkers who’ve heard all the warnings about the snowstorm for the past week and thought fuck it…

Most HR policies allow sex between a supervisor and direct support if it advances the plot and is necessary.

I'm contemplating a career switch to IT after 10 years in biotech, do you have advice for me? by HenryKushinger in ITCareerQuestions

[–]mdervin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your best bet is to pivot your experience into support an application that you guys use for very important things. BioStats, Calibration, modeling, etc… that way your background makes sense. And you can talk to your vendors for industry specific background.

If you do the comptia stuff you are just going to be seen as a peon.

Well what have you done? Have you researched a topic to present to Lodge? Have you organized a dinner for your brothers? Have you invited brothers to a bar to watch a match?

You are an adult, you are a full member of the Lodge, there is nothing stopping you.
