Random Rants LV: The Joy of Ranting

[Timsup2nothin]

well obviously detecting the say, top 10% of most frequently high people, is not that hard

I disagree. The most frequently high people are high all the time. Therefore they have to learn to function while high, and there is no 'not high' for comparison purposes. They are very hard to detect.

The easiest person to detect is the person who rarely gets high. They don't know how to handle it and the contrast is stark. When they show up high the immediate observation is 'why is Bob being such a babbling idiot today?', followed promptly by 'he must be high!'

The rarely high user probably isnt venturing about too much when high

Some heavy users may function perfectly fine but high guy #3 working at the surf shop is not a surprise to anyone. It may be easier to assume they're high all the time

I guess it is a pretty variant field.

Regret {being back in CFC-OT} already.

No, man, no!

I've never replaced one on a video card. It could work, but I'm planning an upgrade and waiting for prices to drop. I really don't want to invest any time and money into my old hd 5770 and I refuse to buy a new card until I can get at least a R9 280 for 160 euros. I know if I buy now it will feel lile a bad deal in a couple of weeks.

Scheiſse! €160!

My resume is disheartening. There's not much content to it.

 

[Arakhor]

You wouldn't expect it to, at your age, unless you are really quite dedicated to doing stuff.

 

[Kennigit]

Maybe your resume would be better with an internship

Just make sure it lists your previous two internships such that you can get an internship

I thought that doing chicks was the main interest at young Zack's age…?

It's okay, mine doesn't have much either. :/

 

[Zack]

It's okay, mine doesn't have much either. :/

But you're a history major.

 

[cybrxkhan]

But you're a history major.

Sir, I take uttermost offense to your remarks! (And I'm double majoring with International Studies or whatever... Okay that doesn't make it much better but still...)


But what major are you, anyways?

Computer Science, part of why it's embarrassing.

Computer Science, part of why it's embarrassing.

Oooh. Yeah, I guess that might be a little embarassing.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, even if I had a crap ton of stuff on my resume, the chances of you not having to flip burgers is still higher than mine.

This is basically accurate.

Rant: y'all need to start posting the link to the next rant thread in the previous one.

I rant in agreement with you, it took me a week to find this!

 

[Arakhor]

This is basically accurate.

Well, how else do you get experience? With five years' previous experience, that's how!

 

[Hydra99]

Yeah unfortunately true: you need experience to get experience and if you want to get into a really competitive field you probably have to work for free getting generic work experience/internships before you get a foot on the old career ladder. My rant of the day is loosely connected... I've been working rubbish temporary part time jobs for the last 6 months and barely affording rent. Applied to loads of different companies and the only offer to come my way is from <link removed> to be a writer for them. I don't know what to do, if anyone has any advice I'd love to hear it!

Moderator Action: Link removed. Although we've noticed your other posts have been relevant and haven't contained link spam, this one reads like an advertisement.

Can't you include all those spreadsheets, forum GMing and 1337 mafia-detecting skillz as pros?

Well, how else do you get experience? With five years' previous experience, that's how!

Typical. 'Why are you asking me about experience? The ad said that they wanted people with no experience!' 'But if you actually do have some experience then you have better chances.' 'BSOD'

My head hurts.

Eating 10 apples is not always the best idea. An apple a day does keep the doctor away, unless said doctor is a specialist in stomach business.

Only heterosexual and bisexual chicks dig me. I want some more pansexuals right NOW. Lol.

I'm still a bit sick. And I have no life. Yesterday i went over to meet one woman at 10 am, then another woman at 5 pm, then third woman messaged that she wants me too at 9 pm... I got home and at 11 pm i felt obliged to message my top priority girl that i'm still alive and wish her good night.

Being Geisha means working 24/7.

MY sister (sister in faith) and my mother are alcoholics. I can't take it anymore. I'm dying of shame. And i can't do anything.
