I'm trying to buy a Trek currently and 2 of the 3 sellers I've been talking to sold them in the like 8 hours it took me to go get cash. Now the other dude is giving me the run around about when to meet up.

It's a fuel EX7. I've always been a cheap ass and ridden hardtails or front suspension only, so I thought i'd try a dual suspension this time.Trek bicycle? That's cool. I used to watch Hotline all the time on YouTube and rode fixies for a couple years.

I don't know how good Dad's gonna be able to help with the Spanish homework, unless her teacher's a bitch, I could help with that.
When in doubt....I took a punt at some really high paying job applications thinking I wouldn’t get anywhere but I got call backs for both and now I have to actually try and figure my shit out. I’m dumb.
Glad its done and under original budget.Holy shiiiit my roof was way under budget!!! Turns out I had the wrong quote in my head the entire time. I thought it was gonna be 65k-85k because we were gonna need to re-sheet the entire thing with plywood. Apparently the real quote was 30k-50k or something. Idk where I got the 65-85 in my head from.
Turns out the wood beneath the shingles was in good shape so very minimal wood was needed and the roof was just a hair below $28,000. Took like 15 guys 3 days so I think it's a great deal. Yay!
That's not dumb. You get paid what people think you're worth, so chase that bag and convince them you deserve that salaryI took a punt at some really high paying job applications thinking I wouldn’t get anywhere but I got call backs for both and now I have to actually try and figure my shit out. I’m dumb.
Or you're not giving yourself enough credit. One of the smartest things a dumb person can do is surround themselves with smarter people - if you can get yourself into a room where you're the dumbest guy in the room, you've cracked into a wealth of learning opportunity.I’m dumb.
Can confirm. My current position was an industry hop for me but going back to something I had education in but was never able to break into.Also, pro tip - use some variation of that line in the interviews. It's a compliment to them, makes you look like you really want it, indicates a readiness to grow, an opportunity for them to shape you in the image of the employee they really want, etc. If I was hiring, I'd want the guy who brings something to the table now but wants to grow with us, rather than the guy who thinks he knows everything already.

The first part of the post reminded me of the absolute dogshit posts by the goober on LinkedIn whose jobs seem to be just posting inane shit on LinkedIn, but your post is actually useful and true instead of "I interviewed 10 people today and every single one was 5 minutes early, which means they were late!" (pretend that was WrItTeN LiKe tHiS in just too lazy to type it that way).I get pretty annoyed with how awful career advice online tends to be - like the wealth of conversation about "resume gaps", as if anyone actually cares about those.
Anyway - welcome to my LinkedIn Lunatics rant.
Any time I've interviewed for new companies, I just honestly wing it because no amount of preparation I have is going to actually stick once I get into the interview itself, at best I just rely on what I already know about myself and how I operate, and bring whatever questions I have for them about the company/policies/etc. IMO, getting the callback FOR an interview after you've sent the resume is harder than doing well in an interview itself.
Ya, the last interview I did, the asked the normal questions, and then when one of the dudes was telling me a little about the history of the company and how they started in 1914, he was like, pop quiz, what else happened in 1914?
I had to resist the urge to explain how the assassination of Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand is either one of the craziest set of coincidences of all time, or time travel is real and that's one of the events that just had to happen.
He did think my actual answer of the war to end all wars...at least for a little bit was funny.
This comment started a conversation with my family that resulted in us all realizing we know literally nothing about WWI except "that was the one with the trenches, right?"
Now we're all reading about it and it's pretty fascinating.
