I'll make it short. Started a new job that I was a shoo-in before and offered but turned down for bigger commission. That ended in fire so when back and they hired me at the same agreed wage. 2/7 male to female ratio with me in the loser bracket and the other guy as a part time.

Boss has the highest customer service in the market area and wants to absolutely keep it that way. I have previous experience and see that they are not really pushing any kind of sales and are assuming on behalf of the customer rather then offering all the options. To their detriment. I have above board sales and numbers for a new hire but my female colleges and boss are finding friction where I absolutely am not intending to cause it. I have 1 official trainer (boss) and 4 vets who have their own way of doing things. I get 5 different answers to the same question. If I ask and do things the bosses way I appears as if I'm snubbing the others.

I've tried to explain that she is my boss and I'll ultimately defer to her judgement and recommendations but want to see how others do things for contrast. It feels like she sees this like a betrayal and I do not trust her answers. To be fair I am the first new hire in this location in almost a year so they are not used to new people but I feel like I am being crushed by every side when I just want to be thankful for the help and experience they have while not being locked in their own ways. Is it best to play along with everyone or keep the boss happy?

you use the best method that makes you the most productive and goal accomplishing, and you incept your boss into thinking they came up with it, and in fact, your coworker was only doing it that way because they remembered your boss saying xyz works best

>Dissect, adapt, gaslight.

I feel like upper management already. Seriously though. When the boss of the store and the one that hired you TWICE says to do things one way. Then their right hand tells you to do damn near the exact opposite in front of them. What the hell do you even say? Either I say nothing and boss thinks I'm ignoring them. I fucking tattle and say WELL BOSS SAYS THIS IS WRONG or I find the compromise and ask inquisitively. "Oh you do this because of this and X and Y to find Z. Boss showed me this because of W". So please one, neither or both.

The absolute worst thing you can ever do to your soul is giving up on your dreams.
>>
>>34058893
Souls are killed on purpose while still a child. You get forced into kiddie prison where you learn superficial busywork and see kids talking about being sexually active with each other or adults and being cruel because they might as well not have parents. How are you supposed to have hope for the future in that environment? From the second you spawn in you're in a life that's anti life which is probably part of why you cry.

>>34058915
You're made to feel guilty constantly for just existing while the ones guilting not only fail at giving meaningful practical support but sabotage you based on their own failed programming and malicious intent. Like holy shit. It's a miracle many more kids don't just take a bath with a fucking plugged in toaster or something. Like yeah there's decent parts despite everything and the POSSIBILITY to heal for things like dreams but they just constantly lay on the pointless pressure and limitations thick. So you're not even allowed to rest because it would ruin the careful balance of the slave masters, not talking about race. You need to be tired and stressed and lacking just enough hope that you fall in line and work for their goals. If they do too much you croak or go crazy but if they don't attack you hard enough you might start noticing too much and getting too uppity. Think of how that old evil faggot in the Hunchback of Notre Dame had him singing for years "I'm ugly I'm grateful I'm faithful". That's basically humans here.

You clearly need psychological help.

I broke up with my girlfriend of a year a couple of months ago because I caught her messaging other men in a way I did not like. She says it wasn’t cheating, but I thought it was blatantly obvious. It made me uncomfortable and broke trust. But overall the breakup was pretty clean and mature. I talked no shit and did what you usually do post-breakup and hit the gym, hobbies, etc.

But recently I’ve been noticing that things have changed. For some context, she became friends with a lot of mine during our time together. And when we broke up, she initially took a step back but still maintained those friendships. I wasn’t going to tell her not to, that’s shitty and immature. The worst part of it so far was being excluded from certain gatherings, such as bonfires at her house, that was fine.

It got even more egregious when our mutual friends started viewing me as the asshole, saying that they’ve heard a lot of bad stuff about me. And now I’m almost never invited around by the guys I've known before her, almost as if she replaced my spot in my friend group.

How do I resolve this? It’s not exactly confrontational and obvious, but it’s somewhat clear that something is happening.

Girl has framed you in a bad light, while simultaneously picking up some orbiters along the way likely. It happens.
If it happens though, and nobody even bothers to reach out to you - then those people probably were not proper friends all along, and you're best off without them really.

I lost friends because they chose a bar over me. The owner of the bar lied to my face about overserving my mom and I went ballistic and got permabanned. It's not just that my friends didn't support me by boycotting the place, they were ALWAYS hanging out there and I was now excluded from chilling with them.

Sorry this story is only tangentially related in that involves losing friends. I guess my point is that people don't really value the concept of loyalty.

There's nothing for you to do in my opinion. People have shown their true colors and they aren't worth maintaining friendships with. Fuck them. I've cleared the air with some people involved in my story but we are absolutely not friends anymore.

Social media has primed an environment where this type of degeneracy is not only accepted, it thrives. Social media desensitizes and radicalizes even moderates into believing heinous and abhorrent behavior is acceptable under the correct context. Spend just 5 minutes on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, you will find hordes of these deranged people. They exist among us. The FBI knows about them but never acts until it is far too late. Western society is on a one-way fast track to collapse as long as social media continues to destroy minds and decay the culture.

She is clearly using gossip rumours and slander to exclude you and gain social power in the group. Your "friends" wouldn't even entertain the idea if they gave a shit about you, and as previously stated, they just want the benefits that come with associating with her-- pussy, from her or her girls. "Friend groups" are not a thing by the way, retard. It's just a way to maintain mate choice selection in these very individualistic times, and if there is a single woman in a "friend group," it no longer becomes a group of friends. Men cannot be friends when they have pussy to compete for. Unfaithful and immature women will bring out the worst in everyone in a group. You can have male friend, and he can introduce you to another male friend, and maybe you guys start drinking with each other on the weekend or whatever, but if you EVER introduce a woman, and consider her a friend, you are creating the beginning of the end with your (formerly yours) group. Never forget this. Men and women cannot be friends because women cannot be a friend to anyone. No exceptions.

How do people handle it knowing their partner will or would replace them? It seems like it makes the relationships pointless unless you can be really detached while still benefiting from certain parts of it like an arranged marriage or one for help with money, but it's like an oxymoron if you're taking it seriously.

I'm 28, my brothers 29. I moved back in with my mom about 6 months ago after living alone for 3 years. He rents the suite downstairs.
I'm so sick of this fucking degen.
He has brain damage from psychosis meds cause he had a weed induced meltdown when he was 17. At that time I would often translate his schizo rambles cause our mom is a boomer didn't get it. My brother is constantly raging and yelling weird inuendo at our mom about random shit like how much of a faggot the neighbour is because he thinks he's yelling at him (100% hallucination and not happening), also yelling about his genitals and how he's going to make the neighbour eat his ass and my mom is just grossed out but too afraid to get him to leave. It's honestly so disgusting to have to listen to. The light left his eyes when the brain damage happened and he now talks/yells in a restricted/repetitive tone. He's also attacked me for pretty much no reason recently. I called the cops, decided not to press charges, and he mocked me over Facebook that night saying he's not afraid of jail. My shoulders still fucked up months later from him thrashing around while I had him in a headlock. He has such poor hygiene that when he's been up here I can smell his B.O several minutes after he's left the room. I'm so disgusted by the things coming out of his mouth that at this point the sympathy has run out. He's never lived on his own and never had a girlfriend and claims to have had sex one time with this black girl and he hates me (and the world, basically) because girls liked me growing up. I'm tired of acting like because he has mental problems he can't be held accountable for all of the abuse he puts us through. He's a fucking monster and I wish I could afford to move so I could just never talk to him again.

Pic unrelated I just think it's funny

For anyone reading this thinking "wow you're a terrible brother, you should support him more", I have. I went to the hospital when he had seizures from alcoholism (he still drinks just way less and won't take the seizure meds), cleaned his blood off his bathroom door and wall from when he fell, ubered over in the middle of the night when he was drunk and depressed to talk him down (which he doesn't remember), and took his side countless time when he was mid flip out sesh. The societal notion that I'm supposed to just continue to haplessly support this abusive asshole is insane. For a long time I've been torn between either accepting that I'll never be able to see eye to eye with him and just continuing to support him because he's too out of it to function, and actually holding him accountable for all of the hell he's put me through, and honestly I'm beginning to not care enough to have that debate with myself.

It's even more pathetic to be a failure when you have everything set up for you at birth. My family wanted me to do stem stuff and go to university, so I did, but turned out to be too slow for actual university, dropped out in 2nd year. Micky mouse jobs I had was either bullied or intimidated out of by stalking/physical violence. Tried doing a medical aesthetics program and stalkers started up again when I went to the in person parts, literally had just 2 subjects left to complete to finish the degree. I'd do an online degree, but I can't ask for any more money for school, they'd probably say no now anyways because I wasted so much. I don't know what to do, other than trying to start my own etsy business or learning sewing to make custom things. I have a good business idea but it needs development with skills I don't have and would need ~60-90k. Should I use my little savings to pay for a english teaching license to teach english online? Should I wait until we move so I can maybe look to be apprenticed to a trade like plumbing? What am I supposed to do now? Everything I tried didn't work out. No way am I going to public places ever again.

It is difficult accepting being a failure when it is not your fault. It is a complete collapse of society. When you’re raised to accept a certain bargain society offers for your time and willingness to follow their rules. Then the society breaks this social contract. How can one thereupon blame themself.

Don't think it's to do with social contract. I did everything I was expected to, but my family and teachers didn't bother to double check that it was actually realistic. I just wish adults were honest and actually cared about reality. I neet'd for years because after failing so hard and being so used to being told what to do, didn't know what to do after that.

Honestly? There aren't any super secret evil ceremonies with local clubs in my rural town. The most you'll get is singing happy birthday, praying to the lord Jesus Christ and saying the pledge. I've been in social clubs all my life like the BSA and kind of missed selling popcorn and serving pancakes to veterans with my buddies. Getting back into town clubs really helped make friends. If you don't mind the old folk home feeling it's pretty cozy. Perhaps my town is an anomaly or something but I've yet to see any craziness. More whacky stuff goes down on the town council then in the conference room at the back of Denny's.
(yes seriously, the Rotary club meets at your local Denny's not in some super secret evil castle in space.)

Has anyone here had to appeal an academic suspension before? I failed three of my online classes, and now I either get banned from the university for a year or they approve my appeal.
My problem is I don't know if I can make a good case for myself. I deliberately sacked off two classes because I fell behind in assignments until it snowballed out of control. The failed third class came as a surprise since I got an almost perfect score on the midterm and a perfect score on the final, but I neglected the assignments there and it was enough to tank the whole grade. There's really no good reason I can give them beyond having work. How can I bullshit them to let me back? How often do these appeals actually get approved?
Help me, bros...

I'll have to look into this strategy. Basically guilt tripping them into letting you back in. Kek

>>34056376
>That sounds important... what all did you have to provide?
Thankfully nothing, but I could have shown them the paystubs to show the hours and I would've given them my job's phone number so they can hear what the job told me about "which is more important." By sheer coincidence I've encountered one of my teachers, a few of the advisors, and one of the big wigs from the campus while working and I think that would have added extra weight to my side if I were pressed for it. Ultimately only needed to turn in a "study plan" in the end
>Basically guilt tripping them into letting you back in
The funny thing is I didn't even say any other stuff like what was going on at home or family and they were very on board with the therapy idea just from me saying I was tired trying to keep up with school and work. They never followed up on it either and it might just be that easy

You'll probably get a better deal if they have kids with an ex too. Some single men fetishize it. Some are indifferent. Some like it. But most don't prefer it. Meeting people in general is difficult after a certain age, and you may be aging too, so that can contribute. Don't get mentally ill and contribute less attention to any one thing. Of course there is the classic "Men like young women" trope, but on top of that... men just like... die a lot, so as you age there are less and less men for every woman. At around 35 there starts being less men than women, in spite of more men usually being born than women in any population. Like, 9.9/10 of people over 100 years old are women.

i used to have a smoking partner a semester ago in college and i slowly grew fond of her. we didnt talk much, just shared the company when we smoked. i used to talk a lot to her but ever since we smoked together, it felt that we grew apart on that front. she was always mute and after we started smoking together, she completely stopped talking. we stopped seeing each other after we went drinking together and kissed. she later told me that she was full of guilt and shame because she's aro/ace and didnt want this to happen. The alcohol "made her do it".
she hasnt spoken to me since and i really miss her.

I am assuming you are an Adult, so you can make your own decisions in life. If smoking is something you like doing then don't let others tell you what you should or shouldn't do.

If you want to keep smoking then do it, also look for a new friend or a new smoking partner to bond with. Hang out at bars and wait for people to strike up conversation, look forward to creating new experiences instead of dwelling over old ones.

Listen to your own judgement, if you feel like you need to quit smoking due to health concerns then do that. Either way here you have the opportunity to create new beginnings and move on
