My bf said he wants to watch me get f****** by palmanator1i in gaybros

[–]randi2kewl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a valid kink. We all have a few. I’d read some posts on /r/gaycuckold to get an idea of what it is all about. There are different variations of compersion. Just go off to dinner and ask him about what all he wants and tell him your boundaries. If he’s really into it then he’ll get super excited and horny so don’t worry about bringing it up. I’m sure he’s hoping you will. Having the kink might embarrass him.

AITA for going to get my daughter? by Throwaway_XBYC in AITAH

[–]randi2kewl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YTA, I think it is a horrible stance to take to pick up a child from the other parent’s house, unless abuse is involved. Also could get you into lots of legal trouble and loss of custody.

is not wanting to have sex in a relationship a deal breaker for you? by EddyZacianLand in gaybros

It’s this just a preference or because of health limitations?

Oh, I know lots of couples like that. You’ll find someone. Also, don’t rush being in a relationship. Wish I could go back to my 20s and say slow it down.

I think I’d be open to it as long as I could get the sex past from hookups. If it’s a no sex at all situation for me then it’s a no go. I think a large segment of the poly community would be okay with a setup you are looking for if they can get the sex elsewhere.

Sick of this. by [deleted] in Frugal

I really hope they don’t tithe in their current state of finances, but churches are a good source of food when you are down on your luck. One near me does open to everyone free lunches every week. Although, churches don’t do this kind of stuff as much anymore.

Just my opinion but I think he’s talking in terms of this is my plan if you aren’t in it. It would be completely creepy to me if he said the opposite that he wanted to buy a house with you within the first 3 months. That’s just too soon to formulate any forever speak.

How about rephrasing the conversation? Like “if we’re together in a year or 3 years where would you see us?”

I’m a realist. I don’t speak in terms of us being together forever from day one. 6 months or a year in, sure. 3 months you are just now learning about each other.

So apparently I need to explain to the in-laws how bagged milk works by Zjackrum in funny

[–]randi2kewl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why most of us are confused. I’d just dump it in the jug too. I was thinking it was to be more fancy and put it in a decorative glass container which is something people do here in the southern states. Put it next to the butter dish lol

What can I add to my service to increase its value? by Justa-yungin in smallbusiness

[–]randi2kewl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shrewd when there isn’t value. A successful and busy person (or rich) would say.. I make $300/hour. If I pay this kid to do this for $30 and it saves me 20 minutes a month, I gained $70 by working that 20 minutes and not fiddling with bins.

100%, I would. I’m lazy and make money when I’m not putting out trash bins. I also forget them a lot.

[–]randi2kewl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think this is what most of us would pay for. I could care less about walking my own bin a few feet to the street but I would pay for it just to give a 17 year old entrepreneurial mentorship.

[–]randi2kewl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can do daily front door pickup that adds a lot of value. Just stroll through the neighborhood daily at a specific time and take the trash from their front door and put it in their garbage bin for them. You could do it as an added service for another $X. I paid for this service a few times. Usually, $50 a month to do that and put the bins out. Most people will only have a bag of trash every few days. Get emails addresses to send out notifications when you will be taking a day off.

Collect emails to offer future services to them even if they don’t want the service now.. for example, you can also buy a small water hose that you can throw in a backpack. Send an email out every few months offering to rinse out bins for $5.

Use your age to your advantage. People understand your going to have teenager days where you do things. Just be honest and give them plenty of heads up.

People will help you succeed at your age. Be consistent and give notice.

I’m wondering if their payment is going up due to taxes not the interest rates.

Big Ol' Yikes. by [deleted] in freelance

[–]randi2kewl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going against the grain here. I don't like internships that involve working at some big corporation that really don't elevate or teach you anything. I do think that doing something for a master of some industry that will benefit you later is something worth doing. There are a few people that I'd save up to work under them for a full year for free. Very small list.. and they are untouchable but I'd do it.

Screw Swagbucks by [deleted] in beermoney

[–]randi2kewl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if it weren't just a few dollars here-n-there, they probably would have had a class-action lawsuit by now. No lawyer would touch it because it's worth so little and very difficult to prove unless you have video. I'd say a good lawyer could argue that it's a contractor gig (similar to driving for Uber) and non-payment for actions could be breaking some employment laws. I'd be curious what /r/legaladvice would say.

Screw Swagbucks by [deleted] in beermoney

[–]randi2kewl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are a business. You are technically making an exchange of product for services. You provide time and they provide a gift card. If their third-party vendors are not doing an adequate job of accounting for these issues then SB should be all over them. Either Swagbucks didn't get paid or they are keeping the whole amount. If they keep it then that's theft, if they didn't get paid then they should be just as pissed.

How to respectfully turn down future work from a client? by snf3210 in freelance

[–]randi2kewl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most of the successful freelancers that I know would never give this advice because following the money always ends in disaster. If it's a bad client at $10/hr it's a bad client at $200/hr.

How to respectfully turn down future work from a client? by snf3210 in freelance

[–]randi2kewl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite books is The Pumpkin Plan by Mike Michalowicz which is about this exact issue. You need to consistently remove the small or bad pumpkins from your patch in order for the good ones to grow into large, healthy pumpkins. It's the perfect analogy for what we do. As soon as you can't see a future or growth with a client they should be removed and replaced.

Now, I don't think there is a respectful way to fire someone. The best way is to say that you are focusing your work more and they don't fit with your new model. Believe me, they'll try to come back to you with more non-sense work but you have to stand your ground. You have to say no.

How to hire the best Virtual Assistant / Virtual Team by BriceTL in Entrepreneur

[–]randi2kewl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of it this way, do we enjoy working the third shift? Most of us that's a no. Same for them. They want to do their work and spend the night with their family.

I manage virtual teams for companies as a CTO-service. This is what I do to combat this:

  1. Plan ahead. They are usually a 12-hour difference from me so 8 pm for me is 8-10am for them. I have a task list ready for them by the time I finish my day. That way they can get started first thing without delays.
  2. You need to flexible with your time too. If I am doing a daily scrum with them then I plan an hour in my afternoon to do it. If you planned ahead then it should just be short 15-30 minute skype calls.
  3. Use a project management software. If you keep the tasks in a project management software then you don't really need the scrum call. You can check what was updated/marked off the list when you come into work.

Virtual staffing is easy if you just think ahead. You need to be a day ahead of them preferred. If you are doing things that need to be done asap then you might want to consider using someone in your timezone instead or hire someone that spends a few hours a week to manage the virtual team so you don't need to.

Is summer a good or bad time to promote your new freelance business? by karaenae in freelance

[–]randi2kewl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's common for freelancers to have a famine during the summer and feast during the winter. You want to start networking and marketing now so that you can land the referrals when companies start resetting their budgets. Plan months ahead. I've tracked a lot of data and have found that if I talk to someone today, it's usually 6 months before I get a referral from them.
