why are abusive people nice sometimes, especially in public?
  • That sounds like one of my parents. They are a narcissist.

    They're doing it to save face and appear nice. They know they rules of society and push them as far as they can to gain advantage. If they know that being mean to you gets the same results as being nice, they will be mean.

  • What are your thoughts on paternity leave?
  • The "work yourself to death" is a stupid boomer concept. It's a hugely negative aspect of traditional masculinity.

    When people say weird stuff like this, I always question why. Why would you have a kid and then work so hard to be away from it? Why would you work for a company that will lay you off the moment it earns them a higher stock price to do so? (no modern company deserves your loyalty.) Why would you brag about suffering instead of relaxing?

    I understand that we're all wired differently but those values literally don't make sense to me.

    Political Anxiety
  • If I stay informed then I start to spiral. I have to disconnect. It's hard but it helps. My habits are to spend time on my phone to get away from my thoughts. But being on my phone gives opportunity to have spiraling thoughts. It's very confusing.

  • "How to Spot Autism in High-Masking Adults" on YT

    I got 8/10 of these. Probably 9/10 when I was a teen.

    I don't know this person or their credentials with a grain of salt, but, uh.... wow.

    is it wrong to ask a former coworker for help getting in touch with a hiring manager
  • Was Bob upset because he didn’t know that was your intent

    I don't think so. I'm pretty up front about my goals. I messaged Bob and said that I am looking for a job and I want to ask Alice questions. Literally. "Could you introduce me or send my contact info over? I'd like to get an inside perspective about the work environment and ask more about the job."

    I then asked questions like "can you introduce me to the hiring manager or send my contact info their way? Additionally, what's the work culture like? Are bosses on your case all the time or are they asking how they can help? Do people like working there or does everyone complain? What's the work hours like?"

  • is it wrong to ask a former coworker for help getting in touch with a hiring manager
  • I would have probably thanked Bob and dropped him from the email before asking Alice questions.

    I usually do this. I even said that directly. "I don't wanna clog up Bob's inbox, so can we talk directly?" Alice didn't accept direct communication, though, and replied via CC, so I went with it. Oh well.

  • is it wrong to ask a former coworker for help getting in touch with a hiring manager

    I'm looking for a job. I saw Alice works at ACME brick. Bob knows Alice. Bob and I used to work together. I asked Bob if he could introduce me to Alice so I can ask Alice 1) for help getting in touch with the hiring manager and 2) what the company culture is like. Bob said yes and I asked Alice my questions, with Bob CC'ed in the message.

    This has seemed OK with most people. However Bob said my conversation with Alice seemed one sided and excessive and like I was taking advantage of him just to get to the hiring manager. I am, correctly, asking for help getting to the hiring manager, for inside info. I am not only asking that, but it is part of what I'm asking. I am also asking about company culture and advice when talking to the interviewer. Bob was very upset and I think I've burned that bridge.

    Is this wrong, in general? Is it OK but not asking too often? Most people seemed to be OK with it, but I worry they were just being polite and I've been unknowingly pissing off my entire social life and hurting my chances at getting a job. (why yes, I do have anxiety and take meds.)

    Edit - as pointed out, they're pretty expensive for plastic mugs. The steam comments are tearing them a new ahole, too, lol. https://steamcommunity.com/app/548430/eventcomments/727997019945216152?snr=1_2108_9__2107

    Anyone know a working Script or something to delete tweets in mass for free?

    I've been trying to delete my tweets and likes and such. I want to keep the name reserved. I've searched for scripts to do this and there are plenty! None of them work. One of them at least said that some changes on January has broken the script. All of the 3rd party services I find either are expensive or only delete that 100 or so tweets.

    Anyone know a script that actually works?

    Why are headhunters or recruiters so laser focused on getting my resume?

    I understand a recruiter needs my resume to send to a client. I get that. However, I had a recruiter ask me, repeatedly for my resume, but was unwilling to give ANY details about the position. I wanted to highlight specific things and remove fluff, if needed, from my resume so I wanted some details. He wouldn't give any. I asked again. He said that he's fix it up for the position. I said no, I can do that and I'm a little frustrated with his unwillingness to give any info at all. Next week, a different recruiter asked for my resume without even pretending to have a position, just that they hire for positions in my field.

    For more context, I've NEVER gotten anywhere with a external recruiter, only internal ones. I try to be helpful, but nothing ever comes from it.

    What is it about getting resumes? Is this some metric they have or something else?
