You'll do great.
By Andrew Go To PostFuck job interviews.Good luck, but I promise you it doesn’t decide your future, there’s always more opportunity

By JesalR Go To PostGood luck, but I promise you it doesn’t decide your future, there’s always more opportunityExactly. Man if you know your shit these things are easy as fuck as nervous as they make you. Have confidence in your craft and if it doesn't work out it probably wasn't a good fit to begin with. It's a myth born out of your own insecurities to think that you won't have another opportunity like the one n front of you. Remember you are the human capital that companies generate absurd margin off of.
By Lunatic Go To PostExactly. Man if you know your shit these things are easy as fuck as nervous as they make you. Have confidence in your craft and if it doesn't work out it probably wasn't a good fit to begin with.this right here
when i stopped worrying about acing interviews to make people like me and started to just respect that i know what im talking about, things got a lot easier overall
By DY_nasty Go To Postthis right hereCrazy that it's a revelation that only comes with time and experience. You are worth more to these companies than you think.

you don't need luck Andrew you'll be fiiiine
I actually enjoy interviews, it's where I scam them into hiring me lmao.
one interview I went in with a tie with a tiny Juventus logo on it and we spent half the time just talking about football. Baited
Go super early

By Yurtlicious Go To Postyou don't need luck Andrew you'll be fiiiineWhat people don't realise is that all these high level executives just want to be treated as a person cause all they normally get is pure ass kissing. They don't even know that's what they want but it's hilarious seeing them put their shields down from it. I remember one high level meeting during an audit and it was during the 2018 World Cup. Just breaking the ice talking about the sport made everyone calm down and become relaxed. My senior was surprised how I handled it given that she wasn't into the sport.

My last job.... The interview basically boiled down to me being qualified and not immediately coming off like an asshole.

By DY_nasty Go To Post😂Bredrin, just not being a cunt goes so far. It's not like the interviewers haven't seen everything before. I'm dead serious they can tell almost immediately from your first response if they want to hear more. Being a cocky cunt only works if you are in sales/marketing.

But man how great is it when you have options. You have get to a point where you have mastered and/or are sufficiently competent in your specialisation that you are worth more than it is to replace you. Retaining unique talent for companies is such a focus for upper management.
I have management willing to retain me by raising my salary by 25k and putting me on the road to upper management just because of offers I'm getting from outside companies. Trust me; all unna youts are worth way more than dese pussyholes are willing to pay you. Fuck you, pay me is the new name of the game.

I got 15k more from my current company because I pitted them against another company that I interviewed with that had similar pay but better benefits, even though that other company hadn't actually offered me a job.
Definitely "shop around" and see what other companies with similar jobs are offering and very nicely "threaten" to get a job at one of those other places to try to raise your starting salary, even if you never actually interview at those competitors.

Planning a wedding is giving me anxiety. Got half the mind to just do it at City Hall with our immediate family and call it a day. We can spend the money on a wedding to do something actually awesome like travel the world.

By reilo Go To PostYou shouldYep
My ceremony (just to make it official because pandemic) cost < $2k and was in a beautiful outdoor venue with just 20 people (15 of them family) and it was just right. There might still be a big giant Chinese banquet in the future but we almost don't care. We didn't even want to do the 20 person wedding and just wanted to sign paperwork, but acquiesced to my family -- and ruffled some feathers because I told my mom to keep it pretty much family only.
I'm guessing none of you are ethnic.
try selling that low-key city hall thing to the extended family if you're Asian or African.

You don't sell it, you take a stand and hold firm. And then you say "well I could always elope" and suddenly a small wedding looks kosher af.
Speaking of travel; thinking of ducking off from my contract when it's going out in May time and do a summer of George and mostly travel.
Watch out NA and SA slaent - I'm coming for you.

Yes
So much meat
My family are Catholics and have open bars at basically every wedding and we nearly always end up with a 50 year old aunt doing the worm between the legs of a 16 year old cousin.
By Yurtlicious Go To Postweddings should have the energy of a funeralall of the funerals I have attended in the US and Japan, minus 1, have involved heavy drinking.
By Lunatic Go To PostThe question should be does anyone here not drinkI only drink about once a year, if that.
I drink in both and both feel just as terrible to attend regardless lol, but you gotta do it.
had to fly to Sicily a while back for a friend and hang out with people I haven't seen (by design) in yearsssss

By FortuneFaded Go To PostI only drink about once a year, if that.is weed legal in Michigan?
By Lunatic Go To PostThe question should be does anyone here not drinkI ask because I'm teetotal.
The idea of getting drunk at weddings where you only know a handful if people is a bit wild to me.
By Daz Go To PostDoes everyone here drink?I don't. Makes me sick and want to throw up.

Never tried the stuff although one of the patients in the psychiatric ward gave me his number and offered to show me.
