Pay rent your whole life?

Mean from birth to age 18? I’ve never heard of this.

After age 18 then yeah you should be paying rent. Why wouldn’t you pay? Why would you live off of them? Help out.

If you are going to college and your parents don’t charge you rent, give them a huge hug and say thank you. Don’t be surprised if you graduate and they start charging you rent.

Edit : I usually read the comments before I comment. Definitely should have this time everyone is asking the same thing.

Then it sounds like you work with assholes. If person a sits down with person b and says I’m sorry about what happened I want to do better. Please help me. Let’s talk about what I did wrong so I can improve myself. Only an asshole says no.

There is an obvious exception to that statement, if you are sitting there and yelling at them or being incredibly incredibly aggressive during the initial conversation. They might not be receptive right away. But if you come back, say the next day and apologize and say look, I wanna do better know I was in the wrong, but I need your help to improve. Can we talk so I can make sure I never do that again? A human being would say yes a good person will say yes let’s figure this out an asshole will say no.

It’s called compassion and sympathy. Sadly it’s also something that is sorely lacking in the United States and worldwide right now.

I guess here’s a question for you. Is this happening at multiple jobs or is it happening just at the current job?

You tried therapy and that’s good the problem is trying to find a GOOD therapist is very difficult.MOST of them shouldn’t be a therapist they can only regurgitate what they were told in class. They can’t think outside of the box and think critically.

I respect the fact that you are trying to find an answer to solve your problem.

You even gave examples of different coworker situations.

Sadly I don’t have an answer for you. The only thing I can say is don’t give up.

Maybe sit down with one of them one on one outside of work. Mention what happened earlier and that you noticed a serious change in their body language and apologize then say you want to do better. Then ask for their input on what you did wrong. Maybe they can help.

Wow

Yeah exactly what would that thing even be used for? Please don’t tell me it’s for a banana.

I’d say the iPhone. A truly innovative, smart phone. When it first came out, I mean.

I’d see someplace close to 50-50. Maybe you cover a little bit more because you’ll get some of the money back when she moves out.Maybe I should say if she moves out.

No matter how you do it put it in writing. Let me state that again , put it in writing. And yes, I know there are certain people who not listening or not paying attention so I’m gonna say it a third time: put it in writing.

Do not assume anything do not use verbal agreements. You will get screwed. It’s not a matter of if it’s when. You will get screwed. write everything down. Who covers what who owes what how the bills are going to be split.

Edit: and just to make a slight addition here. When I say everything I mean everything. Including how long she gets to live there for. under what circumstances and what conditions. Who owns the apartment. Everything. I don’t know about where you live, but here once a person lives in a certain place a certain period of time they are called a the resident. trying to kick them out even if you own the place is a pain in the ass. So write everything down no exceptions.

Good question : sadly it’s flip a coin and watch one… Sorry you’ll have to burn the other one

Too often, I would agree with you yes. But it’s also in the context of how they’re crying and the way that they are crying. There’s a type of crying where for example, a commander is leading troops across the battlefield, watched longtime friends get blown apart and the commander sits down and just quietly cries after the battle. Whether the commander is male or female isn’t going to matter. Most people would say OK that’s reasonable level of emotion for the commander.

That little context, there is what too many directors and producers don’t understand. The emotion has to fit the character and has to fit the scene In order for it to be believable…

As far as the whole bossy and bitchy versus assertive comparing men to women. Again, I can’t speak for what other people think and say

can only speak for my personal point of view. Where I have a real problem with it is when actors and actresses aren’t taught appropriately to be assertive without being bitchy. Men generally are able to pick up on it easier. Women sometimes they don’t pick up on it and they’ve gotta have voice Training. Now that is not saying all women are that way so I don’t want somebody coming back and saying hey this guy just said all women arethis way. Well no I didn’t. But many times women don’t have the role models needed in their life to understand how to be assertive. Well, how do you act assertive on a movie screen if nobody’s ever taught you how to be assertive?

It would be no different than if somebody asked me to lead troops and combat well I don’t know how to do that. I wouldn’t knowhow to be assertive in that manner so I doubt I’d do it very well. Or for example, if somebody said hey, go repair that engine well if nobody’s ever showing me how to do it I don’t think I’d be able todo it. Given ones a technical skill and one’s a skill of how to project your voice, but if you’ve never had somebody show you howto do it or teach you how to do it and you’ve never had a role model in that manner. You might have a hard time it.

I can’t speak for anyone else. But for me personally. I don’t mind if they have a female or male lead. What I care about is if the story and characters are believable. Many times it’s like they just said well here we are going to have a female lead just because. Yet when you look at the story and at the character it doesn’t make sense.

Ex :

A strong female lead who is supposed to be commanding people and yet when she gives commands it just comes across as bitchy not assertive. And when you look at the story the character wouldn’t have the training to be able to know even what to do.

It’s like the director and writers just had to put a female on the screen.

The above example is just an example not meant to point at a specific movie or show.

A few of movies where they did it right.

The women in the movie Red. That was excellent writing and acting. The original Alien movie was awesome. Oh yeah and Mr and Mrs Smith kicked ass Angelina was awesome in that movie

To many current movies just feel like a board room full of people with an agenda of let’s make a movie with a female lead without asking if the scenario makes sense.

This is just my opinion as I can’t speak for others.

Glad you found the piece. Had to look what that item was. In a word. OUCH

I can swim. I just have a seriously hard time sinking. No joke. I have to work to go down.

Learn. Evolve. Improve one’s mind. Understand more of the universe. Gain a greater understanding of one’s place in the universe. Grow beyond what we understand and comprehend existence at this point.

Vehicle makers that angle their hood in a way where it seriously blocks what you can see at the front right corner of the vehicle. Instead of slanting the hood down it’s straight out. Making it very difficult to see the curb when making a turn.

Never pulled that prank

A prank that I did pull. Was one where I knew a guy who couldn’t keep from speaking Or repeating what he hears. So I used that to my advantage. I started out with actually really funny jokes which I knew he would repeat. Then I started telling jokes that were somewhat funny but not hilarious. And I knew he would repeat them. Then I just started saying crazier and crazier stuff to see if he would repeat it.

Had this going for about three or four months. Then one day he figured out what I was doing. Now he doesn’t repeat stuff. It was fun while it lasted. Good times.

Never did this.

You asked, I’ll answer.

Find someone who thinks they are getting promoted. Tell them they’ve got the job. That when their boss left for lunch… That the boss actually just got fired. Convince them to pack up bosses office.

Don’t do this unless you want to lose a friend

Go to bed at 9 pm. Get used to going to bed at that time. Your body will adjust.

Let them know for those that I want to know get together with. Otherwise if they remember … great, if not no big deal.
