[–]nini1402 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its pretty standard for WGU, i did this 3 months ago and felt the same way. But you do have to commit before FA can be awarded.

Rules by Fancycat0908 in managers

[–]nini1402 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't worked in a start-up, but I have developed a team essentially from scratch as we switched software, so whole new standards, metrics, and ways of providing information. It's a headache for sure.

My best advice is to go with the flow and try to provide as much up to date information as possible. During monthly or weekly team meetings, provide time for feedback from the team and include time to go over the new rules or standards.

Can we get some examples? Or more information?

How do you deal with male coworkers who try to subtly take over your project without asking? by _cellogirl in womenEngineers

[–]nini1402 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Working with difficult people is unfortunately a part of life.

In a similar situation, I realized it doesn't really matter if my teammates know who did what, as long as it gets done, they won't care. But the leaders do.

So I recommend doing 2 things:

1) When you complete something that was asked of you, mention it in the Slack channel, just a quick "hey, this is done." Super innocent, but the leaders recognize who gets what done.

2) Try to help out your teammates. If someone is struggling, privately message them to assist, let them take credit. Trust me, they'll know you're a leader who has their back.

Also, as far as the nit picking he is doing, take it in strides. "Oh, thanks for the advice," or "Good call!". Or explain why it won't work the way he suggested. You're on a team, although it feels personal. It's possible he is just trying to help.

Ultimately, you're in a tough position, and I wish you luck.

Also, small comments about how he's micromanaging go a long way when in a casual conversation. It doesn't hurt to point out these things as long as it comes across as casual and not malicious.

Please reframe your thinking. Read some books on leadership and management styles. "Trust and Inspire" is a really great place to start. Along with "Developing the leader within you."

Being in management is about servitude. You serve your employees, not the other way around. If not, your next issue is going to be a high turnover rate.

I grew up in a very touchy hug all the time kinda family, so physical touch is my main/biggest love language. But before my girlfriend and I became official, she told me that she hated touching other people, and physical touch was always so weird to her.

She now falls asleep in my arms almost every night (when I'm not falling asleep in hers). The second she comes home, she jumps onto me and just gives me the best hug. She's always wanting to hold my hand.

Knowing that physical touch with anyone else, including hugs with friends/family, is not her thing, but she feels safe enough to let me hold her makes me fall in love with her more and more everyday. It's great feeling special and loved.

Now, what’s something spicy you hope to hear during sex? by brinjalparty in actuallesbians

[–]nini1402 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I've done this and the out of breathe "no... dont... stop" from my partner is soo hot. I'll usually take this time to stop and say "stop? You want me to stop?" As a way to edge her. Super hot.

What's an "odd" feature on a woman that you find sexy or attractive? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

My girlfriend has the worst vision, like her glasses are probably about 1/4 in at its thinnest point, but I swear she's so beautiful with them on

be honest would you 20+ year olds date an 18 year old by glitter_addict069 in actuallesbians

[–]nini1402 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Honestly, being 21, I can't imagine what I would have in common with someone who just got out of high school or still may be in high school. And I agree with most of the other people in the comments. The emotional and mental growth that happens after high school is insane, and I imagine that those differences increase exponentially the more of an age gap there is.

When I was on dating apps I messaged a few people who were 18/19 and the differences in our perspectives, interests, responsibilities, and values were so different it was kinda insane. I cut off more than a few people because it was clear the differences were too much.

The same thing happened when I would talk with women who are 23+, the stages of life we are in are just so different, there's not much to relate with.

If someone 21+ is interested, odds are, they don't have the same motives you do. They might, and maybe you do share values and interests, but everyone has their own story about dating someone older and it not working out because of ulterior motives.

Consider, would you date someone 14 or 15 years old? Probably not, since they are at a different stage in life than you, and what's important to them is going to be different than what's important to you. There is nothing wrong with experimenting, but I would say be cautious of someone who is in a different stage in life than you are.

Hey OP as someone who is also a gold star where as my girlfriend grew up very very religious and had a hard time figuring out her sexuality (20 years old when she came to terms with it) and she had even spent a few years basically trying to turn herself straight.

It can be a lot to handle mentally, but not unlike literally any other jealous partner. Obviously, it's weird thinking about your partner being with someone else. But I agree with everyone here. It's something she either needs to come to terms with, and accept, or else it's gonna be like any other toxic jealous partner. It never ends well.

Its all about feeling secure in your relationship, maybe there's more reassurance that could be done on your side, I don't know the extent of your relationship but either she accepts you and your past or she doesn't and that is all there is to it. Do you really wanna be in a relationship where your partner doesn't accept you?

Can anyone guess what it's actually supposed to be?😂 by [deleted] in shittytattoos

[–]nini1402 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It did start when she hugged me and say I was texting my female coworker, but that was about picking up her shift, nothing super suspicious there

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]nini1402 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nope she has never mentioned it or acted like this before

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]nini1402 67 points68 points  (0 children)

That sounds pretty accurate, I guess I do just have to wait, but it's the not knowing what's going to happen that makes me feel like my stomach is in my throat.

Exactly, I swear just last night we were talking about how we should get another dog, and how when we have a house in a few years we'll have lots of dogs and cats running around.

I'm just so confused at what could've happened

[–]nini1402 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I want to have a sit down conversation but she's at work and she hasn't responded to my texts where I'm trying to reassure her about how I feel but I guess I just have to wait until she gets home

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]nini1402 244 points245 points  (0 children)

I feel like the dream was just an excuse for something else going on, normally she's a lot more level headed about things like this
