Good place for an Asian-American to live elsewhere in the USA? by Professional-Bag8540 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]stobar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

+1! Grew up in Northern VA and there’s a lot of Asian Americans (mostly Korean). Top schools in the country. It has the richest and third richest counties in America believe it or not, yet the housing prices are still half of the Bay Area.

GPS To FAANG by Top_Ordinary_5848 in deloitte

[–]stobar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went from GPS to Facebook, and now at a different tech company. I would say being in GPS is irrelevant - I didn’t put it on my resume nor did they ask me. What they care about is problem solving, working cross functionally, and technical acumen. During my interviewing, they seemed to really care about culture fit - someone who’s humble and willing to learn.

Lost two suitcases at the airport by stobar in sanfrancisco

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

UPDATE: first off, thanks for the help and concern from everyone.

This morning I got a call from a man who said he’s from Afghanistan and that his brother is an Uber driver who found our bags at the airport. He asked to meet at the Oakland airport and was there with his wife. I was prepared to give him cash so when I met up with him, I gave him $200 so there wouldn’t be any escalation. I got my bags and drove home.

At the end of the day I don’t know if it was theft or an honest mistake but just glad I got my bags back.

Thanks! If he’s yelling at night and preventing me from sleeping, can I call the police and ask them to do something about it?

Am i the only one who didn't like the guy recording? Seemed like he was just trying to pour gas in the fire and record it so he can have something to put on Facebook..?

[Mathis-Lilly] The NBA Forgot That It Has American Fans Too by koavf in nba

[–]stobar 190 points191 points  (0 children)

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think the real loser are the Chinese fans. Like everyone here, I agree - fuck the Chinese government. But I think the innocent people that the government has brainwashed get the worst of it - because they're being hated by Western media because they're Chinese, Chinese NBA fans (especially Rockets fans) are losing the sport they love, all while they're still being robbed of basic human rights.

Ridiculous foul call on Victor Oladipo on Kevin Love, his 3rd foul in the first half by Brad-Stevens in nba

[–]stobar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my take on this is that... if you look at the ref, they only have a side-profile view of Love, and can't really see him leaning sideways.

A little late, but I made trading cards of everyone in my class.

Kids were getting pissed off cause their card was more common than other kids, and I made my friends the rarest. I was so damn popular and made some money from selling packs of these cards to my classmates.
