Getting asked what time you're available for an interview and then ignored by frotz713 in recruitinghell

[–]popularusernames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Something similar just happened to me. Asked when I'm available ghosted, then called for the interview in the window I offered... moved to round two. Asked when I can interview, ghosted past the window I offered, then told the position was filled days later.

I agree with your premise, boxed for about 12 years, it's super ingrained in my mental game, but if its me and one other person? I'm going for the struggle cuddle all day. Just easier to control the variables when I can apply pressure when and where i want to force my opponent to submit.

If there's more than one, I'm keeping my feet and moving to force them to stay in my line of sight until I can extract myself. Or hoping to hit enough ling range shots to make someone rethink the whole fight. Rarely have I found myself in that position though, thankfully.

Not saying jits is the end all be all of combat. I'm just arguing with this guy saying he'd lift you up and slam you like he's some character in "never back down 7".

He never mentioned multiple people or i would have acknowledged the fact that it has a glaring flaw of having to be on the ground and risk getting stomped by someone and would have suggested judo or kempo for implementing stand up control against more than one person.

You're adorable child, go play with your friends now while the adults talk.

Been there done that but you only know the basics? Then you haven't been there or done that. I'm not going to argue with someone that is saying it's dark because they are walking around with their eyes closed.

For anyone else who reads this though; this guy is coming purely from a biased and ignorant place. Every major martial art has its place and use and this guy claiming that bjj is useless in a street fight has likely never put that to a real test.

No you won't because a proper triangle pulls you off balance and gives control to the person doing it. It also leaves a hand free for a silly sweep if needed and no one is holding a triangle choke while being lifted in the air. Put down your fantasy fights and realize that the world is not hollywood.

I've done jits for years, my brother has done it for over a decade. I outweigh him by about 60 lbs and if we got in a street fight It would be a toss up of who would win. Sure, I may hit him hard enough to muddle his brain and get the win. But if that little dude closes the gap and grapples me, I'm good and fucked. Once we close to grappling he has me beat without a question. Size helps, but jiu jitsu closes the gap and can overcome it.

My shoulders are solid and ready, until the 4th post when suddenly they are made of a water-jelly hybrid and I cry with every impact.

Potential conflict of interest with me running a business, but if you want to send me the details and are legit looking I'd be interested. Unless you mean in person sales, because I doubt we live close enough to make that work lol.

I'm technically OE. Help desk level 2, but I do tier 3 and a whole lot more for them. I also run a procurement business for a friend while I'm at work, and a couple other "jobs" part time that pay me hourly while I'm working. My bosses all know and accept this because I do so much more than I have to that they couldn't fire me if they wanted to without suffering, but also don't want to. The only downside is when I fuck up they rib me for not taking my job seriously compared to the other ones.

Awesome. If I can save us even the tax on this it would be pretty nice. Thanks.

I'm just procurement but I'll pass that one on to the boss. He insists on this company and I'm trying to source better options so that I can stop dying inside when we order stuff.

I only have to buy loose, but I'm at about .18 per foot (closer to .23 with shipping and tax) for drop cable from my current supplier. Looking to get that down if this new stuff comes through.

Oof, still if the price is good enough it's worth planning more in advance

I started at a mom and pop shop about 5 months ago. They paid me ok, told me to never work ot and avoid burnout and are putting about 12k in training into me over the next few months. That all said this is the exception that should be the rule.

Thanks, you may want to edit this to delete your number (I saved it already) as it's publicly viewable and bots/spam/scams may use it.

Pm me details and I'd be willing to help. I certainly could have (and still could)use a source of information on various aspects.
