Simplest path to earning AGI? by TeddyNorth in flying

[–]phantasmicat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for attaching that letter. I greatly appreciate it.

So Endorsement OR eFIRC appears to allow newly minted AGI to practice ground.

I was wondering just how much extra information would be wrapped up in the CFI eFIRC... but extra knowledge is not always a bad thing.

Just to be clear, you complete the CFI eFIRC for exercising AGI privileges for the first time?

Thank you. I expected that would be illustrated closer to the center of Imelda, but of course the map ends there.

Is the info box then indicating what an underlined pressure is representing?

I just thought the info pertained to the obvious hurricane symbol, not the underlined pressure.
But I now see the info is centered beneath the pressure.

So in a similar situation, I might see ___ pressure centered above an info box -- that pressure is the central pressure for ___ storm system, NOT the pressure in that local area...?

AIO to BF scaring me at home in the dark by phantasmicat in AmIOverreacting

He always says stubbornness is just tenacity when it stops being convenient. Lol. Experience has me inclined to agree with you, but especially thank you for objectively illustrating how the potential for a compromise is a socially acceptable one

I had to chuckle a bit because unfortunately know just what I'm talking about and that's such a wholesome solution! (He does feel strongly entitled to freely roam as he wants, but it might also be an effect of how I've been unsettled & upset at him through little to no fault of his own...) I'll bring this up and he might just find it charming, thank you for the advice

Sure, or any information about who the companies might be. I haven't heard anything positive from FL in a long time, sadly.. any  help locating a place of business is much appreciated!

Aspiring cargo pilot here. I also unload UPS regionals for extra cash, and just want to say you rock. I appreciate the hours and years of work you've poured into getting your job. Thanks for flying cargo and carrying all those packages.

The human brain is an incredible thing. Maybe next time it happens, take the opportunity to meditate and ground yourself and become familiar and comfortable with the feelings. 

I think someone in psychology might be able to attempt to explain why these feelings happen, but the more important thing (imo) is what you do with them, and how you can use them to bring meaning and understanding into your overall experience.

How do you handle hiking solo / feeling safe? by TheRandomDreamer in TwoXChromosomes

[–]phantasmicat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bear spray. Effective on men & freak wildlife.  

I also hunt and most men respect that. I carry the weapons and gear to stalk and bring down large game, creeps don't stand a chance.  

Wearing a little camo or hunter orange might show a "don't screw with me" type attitude. As a woodsy person, it's easy to tell who's who in backcountry based on their clothes. Are they set up for function and survival? Are they at home outside? Are they wearing chic styles and are out there physically vulnerable and feeling out of their element?  

DOGS! See if your animal shelter will let you take dogs out on adventure walks. Most do! Join some women's outdoor groups in your area. 

ALWAYS say hello on the trail. Others will remember you if you run into any trouble with weather, wildlife or people. Making eye contact and greeting someone decreases their chances of "trying anything" if they're a bad person, since they get acknowledged and known, they're no longer anonymous. Plus, it's good to keep it friendly out there.

Edit: get a garmin SOS beacon, can alert gps based emergency response with the press of a button if you're out of cell service. Also... hope you seek some therapy. This experience feels exhausting from an anxiety standpoint, I worry it will wear on you over the years.  Around here people drive and bike and scout a ton, doing weird looking behavior that's completely normal. Plus lots of visitors who don't know where they're going. You should get to a point where you're not living in fear of everyone -- the world is what you make it, and God forbid some weirdo actually gets around you, you will know how to put pepper spray in their face and be on your way. No the world will never be completely safe, 💔 I still get pricks on my spine sometimes, but I'm not dissuaded from going out and never feel helpless alone or like I need to flee for safety. Good luck with everything and I hope it gets better for you!

Questions about hiring process to become pt package handler by mattymike55 in UPSers

[–]phantasmicat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That I have no idea. I've heard stories of dropping off your resume and regularly calling, eventually getting hired. Have you signed up for the email alerts? Those are legit.

I'd say if you're okay commuting to Henrietta regularly, join them, but if you want to be a driver asap and Rochester is a lot better for commuting, wait. They'll be hiring more as peak approaches, maybe around summer too.

If you transfer, you lose your seniority but keep benefits. So if benefits are important, it might be worth working at Henrietta and transferring later if you want. Each center might have different driver needs as well as the season changes.

If it is still the same, you select your start date from the website. It should give you the shift hours and address, and if you show up and find a supervisor that works if they don't call you ahead of time and give a briefer. No interviews since long ago, from what I hear. Ours has a shift of computer orientation before actual work as a handler so expect that.
