His ear lobes. That's how you can tell you hated him 10 years ago too.

E: Regarding his diabetes, he just put the words "you're supposed to watch what you eat" in air quotes. And then he said "allegedly". Diabetes is pretty basic medicine at this point afaik

must be nice to be good enough at something you merely like to make a living-wage and career out of it and then having a separate thing that you love that you can make your hobby and have time for both.

that is lovely advice because it applies to virtually nobody.

Don't be a dumbshit.

Look at accounting. Some people can knock numbers out all day and be fine, some people find it literally soul-crushing. It's lucrative as gently caress, so some people might be tempted to do it that shouldn't. That's what I mean.

Besides, a 'career' means you are good enough at some basic thing AND you are good enough at people skills and all the other adult poo poo you need to do. That other stuff is hard enough without coming to hate the thing you're there for every day.

If you're trying to get a government job in the US and you're not former military or the child/spouse of someone E-8+, O-5+, or GS-12+, you're gonna end up either unemployed or working for a 32k a year contractor where you'll never promote upward unless you're super amiable/charismatic.

I have a few friends with wives young enough to be considered millennials and it always cracks me up to hear them bitching about their government contracting gigs, like being first on the phone tech support for army.mil mail and a few less-than-TS networks is any different than the Sears Appliance Call Center. It's even funnier when we, as former military assholes who had to occasionally deal with civilians in similar jobs try to explain that they aren't doing anything more important or streamlined than the kid at the T-Mobile store telling grandpa how to hard-boot his phone. Not to mention the US Army email system is way less secure than any single cell-phone carrier's. They just think having a government job means its going to pay well and promote often, when the reality is they sure as hell don't for people without incredibly desirable skill sets.

Not that i should complain, my career arc was Marines -> Community College -> Prison Guard -> Internet Bachelor's -> Working for my older brother's company making 72k/yr.

He's probably going nuts seeing how literally all the hot babes just go gently caress the hottest guys there, on paper, in black and white. The powerlessness and rage continue to coalesce, anger with nothing to take it out on.

And the next day a 17 year old white hooker is found strangled in a dumpster with an incredible counted 178 stab wounds. A sexologist sips their coffee, as the camera pans out to show the dumpster...is theirs.

lol, prices are probably at least another year from peaking and the last peak was in 2006 before it started to decline so you're basically telling people to just wait another 7-8 years to buy a house

like just put one of the most basic accepted milestones in the progression of your adult life on hold for another decade
