Vox Nihili posted:On top of being class signifiers, a lot of Americans get weirdly attached to a particular "aspirational" brand and spend years or even decades longing for their preferred model of luxury vehicle. They will sign a blank check to make that image of them in that car just driving around a reality. I know a dude who was an editor for the local Ferrari Club in college. he use to rag on Miata for being a poor person car. he’s about 2 decades out of college now. hope that dude gets his Ferrari one day

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:Unions are neutered and unions are the only reason factory jobs ever became well-paying in the US also automation. people like mold makers got paid well before cnc because you have to be smart plus have dexterity. not everyone could do it. the byproduct would allow machine to replace people making widgets.

like a lot of places, maybe 10 years ago. I have friends who picked up houses in east valley (Gilbert/Chandler) for under $130k ~2015. standard slab ranch houses, city lot, 3br, 2 bath type things. New builds were ~260-320k for same but brand new. But that area is HOA hell, so who knows what the real cash flow was/is.

Glumwheels posted:At home daycares do make money, the costs are minimal other than food, license, and a helper or two. If you have 8 kids and you’re being paid $1800 per kid that’s a lot of scratch and little kids don’t eat much. All they cover is lunch and a few snacks, parents provide the diapers and wipes and other consumables. a family member used a home daycare provider on the Eastside. Situation as you described. They have a house in Leavenworth they would go to every Friday-Sunday. Seems like she had a good system, making cheese and only having to deal with 4 families. And to your point, all the patrons donated a ton and were super accommodating so their kids had good experiences.

loquacius posted:My dudes I have gotten form-letter rejections for so many job listings I am quite clearly qualified for on paper, sometimes after I talk to a recruiter and they're all smiles on the phone, sometimes without even the phone call. Some of the jobs are fake, and the rest have already gone to one of the 5 million other people who have applied to them, and you will never know which is which, the system is perfect when I went through similar, it was so demoralizing. I hope you haven't let it get to you to much

Tonetta posted:the correct answer is to take the loving train/bus if you live somewhere you can, and if you don't, to relentlessly pressure your government for these facilities sorry mate, putting up new signs to the event center, boring tunnels and installing traffic cams. No money for trains/busses.

gradenko_2000 posted:Number Go Up. I remember in my microeconomics 101 class, like day one, the dude got up there and asked, "What is the equation of happiness?" He drew # of wants fulfilled divided by # of wants. He then said something like, "no matter how many wants are fulfilled, you will be unhappy, but this drives everything" in hindsight, dude was pretty strait with it

Cup Runneth Over posted:has anyone in modern history ever had a rent decrease way back in college, we hosed our landlord out of the last 3 months of rent because we didn't have a lease signed, he was going through a divorce and apartment complex was being sold off/under contract and he left town for a few months. so we just didn't pay, moved out after the year and told him to go gently caress himself when he wanted those months. somehow it all worked out lol does the count?
