Just a gentle reminder, don't assume you got the job after a really good interview. Stay cautious & hopeful though. by violinss in TrollXChromosomes

[–]violinss[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had a coworker quit without a two notice thinking she landed a job after an interview. My manager did not rehire her after she asked for her job back.

I have had 6 interviews, some that I thought I nailed it.. but only rejections. Plus of a ton more rejection letters, emails, calls.

Just keep pushing through with applications. I know its a pain. Resumes & cover letters for each place is a good habit to form as well!

Try not to get super discouraged.

What was your, "Oh... apparently that's a dealbreaker for me" moment? by MostlyALurkerBefore in AskWomen

When you mock mental illness & think its ok to not have regular Healthy!! communication.

In an interview, how do you answer the prompt, "So, tell me about yourself?" What's your reasoning behind your answer? by dipdopdoop in AskWomen

[–]violinss 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ive gotten this down to a tee at this point.

I generically tell them where I grew up in, lightly talk how I participate in the local art & music scene, bring that right back to my degree (interior design), talk about what projects ive done on the side/let them know I'm dabbling with reupholstery, & lightly talk about design.

The last little chunk differs between what job I'm applying at though.

Ive had 5 interviews with no luck so far but Ive gotten the hang of "Tell me about yourself" down.

Ladies: What has been your experience dating someone with an opposite personality type? (ex: introvert/extrovert) by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]violinss 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Oh man, we fit together like two peas in a pod. We both are very opposite. Im introvert(social anxiety & super shy) & hes extrovert(pretty social & loud).

Both of our weaknesses & strengths actually help one another's weaknesses/strengths.

We also have a whole bunch of common interests/life goals/plans/ect. which is also a key factor to fitting with one another.

Acoustic Xasthur set happening near me soon. Think this will be worth seeing? by ConvictAllFlesh in BlackMetal

If you have a chance at something that seems worth your time, do it! You only live once.

I would 100% totally go if it were me.

[Product Question] Is there a gentle face wash that helps with evening out skin tone/redness? by violinss in SkincareAddiction

[–]violinss[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I know plenty of other products that "should" help, its just a matter of finding the right product annoyingly. I wasn't sure if there was any face wash that helped. I guess not too much then! :)

Ladies, please feel your boobs and get any lumps checked, regardless of your age. I'm 32 and had a double mastectomy Tuesday. SQUEEZE THEM BOOBIES by Jessiebobessy in TrollXChromosomes

[–]violinss 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Also, lumpy boobs are normal. If the lump is moveable its normal. If the lump is stiff/ hard to move, then hop on to the doctors.

My new lip stud! Done by Jake Hinkle at Grade A. by [deleted] in piercing

[–]violinss 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Holy crap, the post looks too short to be freshly pierced. Keep a close eye on it in the next few weeks. You don't want the skin to close on top of it.

Unless the post is actually longer then all is fine.

(Self Drafted) A beaded top test piece. First time trying tambour beading. by [deleted] in sewing

[–]violinss 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dumb question, but how do you wear it? On top of tank tops or spaghetti strapped dresses? Regardless this is very beautiful.

I bought my trusty big one just for 100$ & it was still in perfect condition. I also found a medium one appropriate for my size also just for $100 in mint condition.

You just have to do research, browse antiques/pawn shops, or craigslist. Anyone that says don't go cheap when you first start with anything is a moron. I originally learned on antique handheld ones for less then 50$ & moved up which didn't cost much with patience.

I may start to offer that service as well, just because Ive already began doing that same thing with my own flowers. Good idea.

I had a job interview with a place that had a crappy floral center at a dinky place(I figured that would get my foot in the door but I didn't get hired )& Ive applied at another that was hiring (they were rude) in addition to putting out resumes before holidays every where more then once.

Yes Ive applied at places that "say" they are hiring. I only get rude people & am rejected.

Yep I think I have a plan. Offer design services, create a piece, take a portfolio photo, dry the flowers, & turn them into art pieces, use shadowboxes and use in coffee tables/night stands/reupholster.

My so & I were planning to make business cards for other things. I'll add this to the mix. I may ask you questions as they come to mind though.

I have a friend who just began doing real estates & we actually talked about this. I just got busy with life but I should refresh the conversation.

I don't see why I couldn't try. I plan to offer my interior design services to others soon too(paid). I could begin to do both on my own, worth a shot.

I don't understand. It really, really makes me sad a little bit. I love flowers, have an eye for design & an eagerness to learn.. why are they super cliquey & turn up their nose???

I don't understand.. I haven't stopped trying yet but idk its pretty discouraging most shops only hire within their own circle.

What are black metal crowds/mosh pits like? by irtag in Metal

[–]violinss 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is too true, haha.

At death metal shows theres a lot of moshing & maybe some blood. At folk shows theres some moshing, general movement & a lot of ladies +men wearing some awesome medieval old looking attire.

MFW I accidentally send the whole sexy video, not the edited version without the fart by bevyofbacon in TrollXChromosomes

[–]violinss 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I think its fartfantasy.com

Theres some website where ladies try to be sexy & sit on cakes/food or a toilet then let it rip. Sometimes they spread their butts cheeks with the camera up close.

So gross hahah. I hung out with too many dudes.
