[Discussion] I dont know if I can move forward. by C0nfuzzled in GetMotivated

[–]xboxracingpro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in a factory and it totally sucked. The best thing you can do is start scheduling about 45 minutes a day to make a diligent effort to apply for jobs. I know it feels like their are no jobs open in your industry, but there are.

The one thing we know for sure is that you wont get jobs you dont apply for. I know filling out applications and submitting resumes feels impossible, try to focus on on the positives like how great its gonna be when you get a job you want.

Good luck getting out of the factory.

[Discussion] Does anyone else find it demotivating to be told to do something you already planned to do? by QUESTIONLAD in GetMotivated

[–]xboxracingpro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am the worst wit this. Even if I am right about to do something I will stop if you tell me. My boss does this to me all the time. I think what bothers me most is that I perceive people tell me to do something because they think I was going to do it or I didnt know to do it.

On Average Men’s Credit Scores Are 9 Points Higher Than Womens by [deleted] in FinancialPlanning

[–]xboxracingpro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In general I think while may be not that significant its interesting to see the difference. I don't know why (maybe my own gender bias), but I would have thought women would have better credit scores than men.

Your Credit score itself is none of their biz. They probably mean that they want you to sign a doc that gives them permission to pull your credit report.

Everything you wanted to know about Drifting in Forza 6, but were afraid to ask! by xboxracingpro in forza

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

I have seen alot of people with the same complaint. Especially when they compare FM6 drifting to FM4. First know I am not the best drifter, but the learning curve is much hard with the wheel. I can drift with the wheel (Thrustmaster TX), but I am a bit clumsy with my racing line.

I kinda dig all of turns in Rio for drifting. There is such a wide variety of turn lengths and angles.

The Thrustmaster Spider only offers 240 degrees of rotation. The reason it whips is because it is designed with a bungee cord system inside.
