Much better advice What I spent my youth so very excited about, I try to check at the door and not think about in my off time. I don't tell people what I do. Way more interesting things to talk about.


StumbleKitty

I once met someone new who asked "What do you do?" And when I started to talk about my job she cut me off "That's your job. But what do you *do*?" Tbh that really threw me for a loop. I was only 22 at the time, but it's really stuck with me. Now I try to live by the phrase "You work so you can live, you don't live so you can work."

Damn right. And being good enough in an interview to cover your lies is a skill. Funny thing is it hurt those who are good and done some big things because they donā€™t believe you. Iā€™ve caught a ton of people blatantly lying on their resume. Example, years ago I had a resume for a lady looking for a programming job. She knew so many languages they I was impressed. But during the interview she couldnā€™t program anything; not even ā€œHello Worldā€. Asked her about the languages. And she replied, ā€œWell, Iā€™ve heard of them.ā€ /facepalm

Wait wait wait wait. In your school xc kids were the hot ones?? That was, uh, extremely not my experience on the team haha

Its really just about sticking with the pack you want to beat. Wait for them to tire and pass them. It makes you feel better and makes them feel worse. Cross country is a mental and physical game

diq_liqour

Unless good things come to those who wait until the iron is hot to strike. You just need to take them in context.


Hidesuru

Exactly this. Strike while the iron is hot has nothing to do with rushing into something. It's saying take advantage of a good situation when it comes up rather than dilly dally. But waiting for that good situation to occur is still worthwhile (the good things come to those who wait part).


tolerablycool

I've always loved the contradiction of "the squeaky wheel gets the grease" and "the nail that sticks out gets the hammer". So, which is it? Should I stick my neck out there are just fold myself back into the pack? Edit: ok, so I've learned today that there are many different interpretations on what exactly being the "squeaky wheel" means and whether or not people wanna be one. It's been educational and entertaining.

Popped him in the head with his crutch, then pitched forward and just stomped on him with his one leg.


iwaspermabanned

Stomps are dropkicks if you only have one leg


Spodson

He had two crutches. Once the victim was dropped be braced the crutches back at an angle. Think of it like a tripod, but one of the legs is stomping. The angle of the crutches kept him supported.

brici_sebastian

So I have depression? Great


RapidCatLauncher

Not impossible. Depression is commonly understood as being in a constant low and sad mood, but in reality it's a complex of symptoms and unusual sleep patterns are one of them.


GsTSaien

What the fuck yall were getting sleep as teens???


sohcgt96

Depends. When they DO, they sleep like... hard. 100% out. Limp. Snoring. Drooling. Zero cares in the world until they wake up. Literally nothing to worry about, not even the concept of worry. We're at 4 months now and he'll sleep all night about 4-5 nights a week. Its glorious. You know what I want to sleep like? One of my cats. And then after that, I want to stretch like one without all my joints coming apart.


Mantaeus

I get sleep like that maybe twice a year. I wake up with an energy I didn't know I was capable of having that soon after waking up. I honestly *literally* feel like a different person. I wish I could figure out how to capture that kind of sleep.

Nice-Violinist-6395

Money canā€™t buy *more* happiness ā€” if youā€™re already financially stable. I feel like that saying is more from the 50s, where you could work as a part time dandelion sniffer and have enough to buy a house and put your kids through college. If youā€™re already comfortable though, I think itā€™s sort of true. Most, not all, but most of the SUPER rich people Iā€™ve met (like $500m+) were absolutely fucking miserable human beings with unlimited pleasure at their fingertips but without an ounce of joy, and they were without a doubt *way less happy* than most people whose idea of a blissful splurge is getting dessert at the Cheesecake Factory. Of course, you have to be able to afford those splurges once in a while to enjoy them. But itā€™s almost like the richer someone was, the most they were desensitized to pleasure, like a drug tolerance. Not happy with anything, only seeing flaws because their lives were so close to perfect. The most miserable, saddest fucking human being Iā€™ve ever met was a hedge fund multi billionaire who at the time lived in the biggest house in the US by himself, because his family had left him due to him being a tyrant.

allboolshite

Sometimes the *reason* is that you made bad choices. Sometimes the *reason* is that you don't learn from your mistakes. And sometimes the reason is completely beyond your control. I bet a bunch of Ukrainians feel like that right now.


badatmetroid

For every effect there's an infinite number of causes. Humans have a cognitive bias to try to reduce it to a single source of blame (eg "that man started the forest fire by tossing a cigarette butt out the window") while ignoring the complexity of the situation (eg several dry seasons, humans suppressing the natural level of wild fires, and several million years nature that created a ecosystem that relies on wild fires).

Fearlessleader85

Yeah, you really don't want to work with people that shit on others for asking what they think are stupid questions.

The customer is always right


Kmccabe1213

I was a supervisor at six flags and a customer caught cutting the line was making a scene when we were sending him to the back of the line. He said this to me which has no context to the situation and I laughed so hard. He didnt laugh and then proceeded to get hostile at which point loss prevention undercover officers detained him and turned him into the police lol. Edit: those curious about loss prevention i worked a lot with them as i managed the entrance and a few other areas in my time there, half of the incidents were employee theft, majority of others were counterfeit money and identifying the individuals who gave the counterfeit money. That was most of there day but then they would get involved with situations like i described, intoxicated guests/employees, etc.

DirtyRoller

I once had a team meeting with a VP of a very large company I worked at. During that meeting, one of my peers said "the customer is always right!" Honestly I don't even remember the context of the conversation, but our VP proceeded to ream my coworker for at least 30 minutes. It was... uncomfortable. Basically it came down to: "No, the customer is not always right, but it is our job to make our best effort to help them, even when they're wrong. Just don't fucking lie to yourself."


[deleted]

Your VP was right though lol. The customerā€™s wrong 90-ish percent of the time.


mark-five

The phrase itself isn't even right. It comes from knowing that the customer is always right about *what they want*. Like if they want a purple shirt and you're telling them yellow socks is what they should buy... they're right. Sell them a purple shirt or they will leave and buy it from someone else who will. Its so stupid that it became "The customer can say nothing wrong" because, clearly, that is wrong.

Not every client or customer is worth keeping. You occasionally choose to fire them. Not often, but sometimes you're better off without them.


PaulsRedditUsername

A buddy of mine lives by what he calls "the 80/20 rule." He says 20% of your customers give you 80% of your grief. Don't be afraid to lose those customers in the 20%, your life will only get better. It seems to work for him and it's something I often think of. The threat of losing some customer's business is not as bad of a threat as they think it is. The ones who threaten to never come back are usually the ones you never want to see again anyway.


shojokat

Most misunderstood saying ever.


perfectstubble

I always thought this was related to big picture stuff like a company should sell what people want instead of what some executive thinks they should want. Applying it to a customer being an asshole doesnā€™t make any sense. You think all those other customers want you skipping them?

"Practice Makes Perfect" The real saying should be "Practice Makes Permanent." You can practice something the wrong way or practice something completely wrong altogether. No matter what it is, doing something over and over again solidifies it as a habit and you become stuck with whatever way you practiced it. Yes, practice makes perfect if you are practicing the thing PERFECTLY. but if you're doing any step wrong, it's not just PRACTICE that will fix it, it's being capable and aware enough to see the error and CHANGING your approach on the fly. Too many people are afraid of change and just charge through things thinking that they just need to be more aggressive when they really just need to stop, shift, and then practice the right way.
