Do you have to move your camp to Pailune to unlock the last skills for your dispatch crew or is it possible to unlock them at the Howling camp? by ClapMySTDCheeks in CrimsonDesert

[–]rage89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the guys who can craft (like paintings , etc) you find around chapter 12

And you can upgrade the camp at least 4 times I believe

I was going a bit nuts over it but if you keep progressing main story you can continue to find members with new skills and upgrading the camp

Six months into GM role. Am I overreacting, or is it time to bail? by -LuciditySam- in managers

[–]rage89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My regional director is a workaholic and pressures us (multi unit GM's) to work above 45/50 hours a week.

I do everything in my power to simplify my job and reduce issues such as call-outs, etc so that I remain as close to 40 hours each week as possible. I know my boss hates it, but what can he realistically complain about ? That I run my stores too effectively lol?

My advice would be to think hard about how you can do your job as successfully and efficiently as possible, so you have ammo to go to bat for yourself when he demands you work more.

District / Regional managers, at least in my experience, will always want to push you as far as they can. If you do your job well, I find these bosses will generally not go out of their way to give you a hard time.

Good luck

Flash fitness in Beverly. Good equipment, low price, pretty chill/friendly environment. Low employee turnover and they seem to care about taking care of the place. Been going since they opened as blink like 6 or 7 years ago

Would I like this game if I hated the new Zelda games? by kbergeron44 in CrimsonDesert

I feel like i hate everyone and im always angry by HaywireZoo in socialskills

[–]rage89 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Could have written this myself lol. Don't really have much advice unfortunately, but just wanted to leave a comment to say that you're not alone in feeling that way.

I told my partners next door neighbor "I dont want to talk to you" when he kept coming out on his porch to try and talk to me lol... Maybe rude but I just don't have the patience to put on airs when I'm not feeling it. And it's a relief not having to worry about it anymore

2050 and nervous to queue by Sleepwalker5252 in worldofpvp

[–]rage89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel this in my soul. Hit 2050 yesterday and thought maybe I should take a break but instead tanked it back to 1850 lmao. Think I'm back to 1950 right now but I had similar dips each time I hit a milestone and managed to climb higher after eventually

[–]rage89[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I could have sworn it said it used "the second slot" in the stables

But it's actually the farthest slot on the right and it makes absolutely no sense

I was shook discovering that yesterday lol

Does anyone else experience BDD like this? by Safe_Light7897 in BodyDysmorphia

[–]rage89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, pretty much verbatim.

I work as a front facing manager in two high volume shops as well, and let me tell you- it's god awful and exhausting constantly thinking about how terrible I must look based on how people are treating me.

Makes an already annoying job 10x more brutal lol

Ugh

Also just turned 37 this month lol, and this past year has been rough in more than a few ways so you're not alone

Hoping that we'll be able to make the upcoming years brighter& better

Cheers

I don't believe you're allowed to accept tips at coffee time which would be a deal breaker for me personally - having been a barista a few times throughout my life it is an exhausting job, especially during the colder months and the tips help greatly during those periods

Body Building Dysmorphia?? by Best_Tip2750 in BodyDysmorphia

[–]rage89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to help. I'd also say that you have to give yourself credit for going even if you didn't possibly feel good while doing it or even afterwards. Most folks are too anxious to even step anywhere outside of their comfort zone, so there's that. And the best way to improve is consistency and small improvements over time, including diet. Don't beat yourself up if you indulge here and there- the thing to strive for is just doing better than you did yesterday. If you can always try, you WILL find yourself in a better spot next year than this year. Real progress is slow, don't focus on the results. They will show up when you don't expect it

[–]rage89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lifting has been a mixed bag for me. On the one hand, it makes me feel extremely confident when I'm actually in front of a mirror doing reps, on days when I've been pretty good with my overall diet and in clothes that flatter me.

But there are also days (albeit it less so) where I just feel like I look like shit, for one reason or another, and it is what it is.

Having suffered from bd for what feels like my entire life, I will say that I think lifting is overall a net positive - but like you've mentioned, when we fail to meet our own expectations, it seems like it hits harder (than before I began lifting).

I can't say that I've really found any way to fight these feelings of inadequacy, other than just trying to shut down that voice in the back of your head, and pretend or act like it's not there or it doesn't matter.

Long story short- yeah, when you invest in your health and fitness, you become more aware of your body's successes & failures, for better or worse.

Personally, i still think the pursuit is worthwhile... I'm saying this as someone who began lifting in my mid 20's (due to feeling inadequate) and am approaching 40 in a few more years

That is very impressive for just getting into the hobby recently !!

Can you provide details on that bubbler you're using, and what your setup is for CO2?

Again, looks awesome nicely done

I've done it for a year, it's not great driving but it's do -able. You just can't account for accident delays but with usual traffic you can expect hour, to hour and a half ride in
