It should be within reasonable range, like e.g. you won’t wake up as a Yedi or Superman tomorrow and world hunger won’t be solved just in a few days, etc
I receive an invite for a job interview. I’m so tired of trying to make my resume better and writing cover letters.
My mom’s ex husband who just ran away from our business and their marriage drop dead
I can tell you something good that is happening this week. I got a job offer so I can quit the retail job I’ve been doing for 11 years.
Possibly getting a job offer. I made it all they way to the final round, instructions mentioned a wait of at least three working days for the results.
If I found or was given about 10k, my life would take a pretty nice turn towards being able to stop relying on my parents when a crisis happens.
My wife’s car has a blown headgasket, and we were quoted by 2 mechanics that it’d be about 5k to fix since the engine overheated for a long period of time (sensors didn’t tell us it was overheating) and needs to be replaced. This is dumb since I still owe about 5k on the car it’s self so I’d probably just pay the car off to get out from under it and use the other 5k to find a better more reliable vehicle. Man, that shit would be nice.
I buy a lottery ticket once a month just for the fun of some cheap fantasies/dreams. A few years ago I won $2000. I wouldn’t mind a repeat.
that my crush asks me out finally when I see them again on Saturday; or at least get closer to going out somewhere even just as friends.
Why wait for them to ask you?
for one, I want it to happen organically which means I’ve been trying to be outgoing every time I’m there and very patient lol
the big issue is they work in a dispensary. And I actually know them from the last dispensary they worked in. But that place was kinda shitty and they were on shift alone a lot but it was easier to flirt with them back then.
I’m a fool and should have asked back then but didn’t for some reason. I think I was still stuck on it happening organically then too.
But now where they work, there’s always other people there. There’s only been a few times where I was able to talk to them when they were alone and I actually apologized to them recently for being super awkward every time we interact and they agreed they were also being that way lol
anyway, I’ve felt bad about this for awhile but I feel a lot better about it now that I’ve talked to them about our previous interactions and they always compliment me when I’m in there. so here’s hoping something good happens Saturday.
Dude, you’ve just gotta go in and ask em if they want to go for coffe sometime, because either they’re into you too or you’re the creepy customer who followed them from one dispensary to another to flirt with them. I really hope it’s the first, but if it’s the latter you’ve gotta leave that poor retail worker alone and find a new dispensary.
Yeah, I felt bad about it because of comments like this. I didn’t know they went to work at a different dispensary that happened to be closer to my house.
They’re fine and they always compliment me - I’ve complimented them once. We also talked recently and they said all our awkward interactions were fine too.
Well then get yo ass over there and ask em out!
I only see them there on Saturdays lol
kid, don’t listen to them. you do you. at your own speed.
kid, don’t listen to them. you do you. at your own speed.
so aggressive
It’s friendly banter, calm down
Why are using plural? Who are “they”? I’m not from US so I might be missing something, sorry…
“They” is also used as genderless singular, since OP didn’t specify their or their crush’s gender you’d use “they” instead of “he/she”
If I can add my two cents, an organic meet cute is overrated. We all want that cute “we met in a bookstore and bonded over favorite authors” story but it has so little bearing on the actual relationship. My guy and I met on tinder and had a very original first date at a brewery lol. But four years in and that part is inconsequential.
Take that step and see what happens! Regardless, it sounds like you’re headed that direction, so best of luck!
See, I never really have meet cutes. I do what you did and got no where. I’ve met loads of guys and girls on dating apps and they all ghost.
I don’t get the hate for meet cutes outside of they are hard to achieve and take lots of patience.
It’s not “hate” for meetcutes, it’s just resistance to the idea that a cute origin story has any substantial effect on the future of the relationship.
I mean, its a common thing I see that people seem to try and discourage. Seems like people don’t like it in general for some reason.
A job offer. I work in software and it’s tough out there this summer.
a decent job offer, have been job hunting for 2 months, but i’m neither senior nor junior. for some stuff i’m expert, others i have never done, the recruiters do not like this.
Dear lord I know your pain.
A great big “Fuck You” to Capitol One for making me call off work for a 6 hour interview, telling me I did great, and then telling me that they can’t hire me due to my lack of AWS experience which I told them about from the very beginning.
“Oh we’d love it if you applied again in 6 months” as though I’d ever want to work for a company that so disrespectfully wasted my time, even if I did somehow magically gain AWS work experience while stuck in a job that does not use AWS during that timeframe.
Fuck that fucking shit. Apply in six months and lie about that AWS experience. I’ll be your reference
Haha, thank you friend. I’m probably just going to relegate myself to telling everyone who’ll listen to that Capitol One should be avoided though
I’ll start. The best thing that can happen to me this week is to successfully make plans that I am happy about for the weekend :)
Blowjob from an angel I’d say
@u202307011927 @asklemmy Well it not only could happen but is happening. I’m babysitting my nieces this weekend. (I’m their favorite aunt :sip_cat: )
Get a decent raise so that I can do more than just make ends meet and can stop delivering for DoorDash.
get 8k€ to go on a technology shopping spree
The part I ordered to fix the dishwasher could come in, so we can finally start using it again after 2 weeks.
I’m doing alright, all things considered.
