I'm starting college this Fall but I want to get a job to work while I go. I have a pretty decent resume already in retail and I don't want to get into a trade.
What are some jobs without a degree I could get? Maybe with a certification. $14/hour + would be ideal

Carpentry. Be a fucking man.
My first job was hauling brick up ladders for construction. It paid $16 an hour.
Or you could be an asshole on YouTube for money. Your choice.

About a month back I was outside a bar having a cigarette when a girl came up to me and asked me for a lighter. Instead of going back over to her friends, she decided to hang around and strike up a conversation with me. Nothing particularly overly flirty was said or done (apart from a touch on the arm), we were just making small talk and asking each other a few things, but it was mostly her who was keeping the conversation going, as I was being pretty shy like I usually am. But she only decided to go back to her friends when she said she owed one of them half of her cigarette and seemed really keen to get the conversation going as much as she could. As I left to go back inside, she stopped me to ask me my name.
Fast forward a month later, and I keep seeing her around the area that I work in, so she obviously works around there too. At least, I'm 95% certain it's her. She's really good looking and I'm kicking myself for not asking for her number. Would it be worth approaching her and striking up a conversation? The thing is, I'm worried that she won't remember who I am. It was fairly late into the night and presumably she'd had a bit to drink.
Thoughts? I'm a pretty shy guy so how would I go about approaching her, if it is worth approaching her? Realistically, what do you think would happen if I went up to her and said I recognised her from that night? Would she also appreciate some guy accosting her while she's on her lunch break or waiting for the bus home or whatever?

"Hey, you're that girl from <bar name here> right?"
blah blah blah, small world, blah blah blah
So do you work around here, blah blah blah
It' was cool bumping in to you again. We should hang out some time, *pulls out phone* what's your number?
You're over thinking this shit.
Just go talk to her.
>>
>>18604933
Agree - don't overthink. Let your balls do the talking.
She didn't stop and talk to you because you were ugly, boring and smelled. She stopped and talked becasue she saw something she liked. So now pretend she's your cousin and you have known her for years and just walk up to her and say hi. Force yourself to talk to her like you know her already and she likes you.

>>18604964
Sound advice but I'm pretty bad talking to randomers anyway.
Also different circumstances - she approached me on a night out after a few drinks, whereas I would be approaching her in the cold light of day during, presumably, a working day for her.
I just fear that she won't remember me, or that she was too drunk and had the "beer goggles" on (I'm not the best looking of guys.)

The FFL doesn't surrender. They fight to the death. Mainly because it's comprised of nonfrench.
OP, I'm considering this too, but they'll really need a reason. It's not like regular military. First question would by why you don't join your countries military. And then they'll grill you to make sure you don't have any reason to desert because about a dozen people a year do.
What fuck ups do you have in your life make you think you even qualify?

So here's the thing.
The other week I met this guy and ever since we've been texting all day, everyday. We even say goodbye with kiss icons and what not. We talk about everything and have a very similar sense of humor.
So I suggested we go for dinner next week to this nice place and he was very excited about it.
Yesterday I noticed he seemed a bit off somehow, he said he was thoughtful. Today he asked me whether what we'll have next week is a date or not, because he doesn't want me to think weird stuff. I said it's just dinner.
He's been very receptive so this comment caught me off guard.
Any idea what may be going on?

he is not romantically interested in you but enjoys having you as his platonic buddy
>>
Do you like him romantically? And if so, do you think he likes you in the same way? He might want to just be good friends with you and isn't sure if you like him in a different way
>>
>>18604871
I'd say it's the other way round, he may well be sexually interested (or romance if you prefer) and isn't sure what kind of messages you're sending...
make it clear it's a date and see how he reacts - you can always it it as a question - "how would you feel if dinner next week was a date?" - then mention you yourself would enjoy that - assuming that's your endgame...

I have never believed in "cyberbullying" unless it's a very serious or real case. So simple things like saying kys means nothing to me and never really has. Am i in the wrong for thinking like this?

Like in-person bullying, one single incident is generally not a serious problem. But when it becomes persistent, a group effort, when people are excluded socially, when people are unable to use social media without seeing threats or insults, then it becomes a serious problem. Just staying off the internet (which is a common repsonse to someone saying that they're being bullied) is not a viable solution, because of how deeply social media is now ingrained into our lives, especially the lives of young people.

Not OP but why don't they just go to another site then or block people?

So I went on a date with someone and it went OK but ended kind of weird. She asked for another date but seemed sort of disinterested. The next day I talked to her friend who said she mentioned that I wasn't assertive/aggressive enough for her. I have looked online trying to understand this perspective but mostly just find a lot of complaints. Can someone help me understand? I paid for everything, what could she possibly mean?

My girlfriend and I just moved in together about a month and a half ago. She moved across the country, from the Pacific Northwest to the Southeast. After about the first week, she mentioned that she had been asking coworkers if they knew of any good hookups for weed. I immediately attempted to make clear to her that she should not be talking about things like that with A) coworkers B) practically complete strangers. Even some of the people she asked told her that she probably shouldn't be asking around about that. To compound this problem, one of the people that has stuck around and continued talking to her about it is a guy about her age. Either way, she said she would stop asking around.
Flash forward to last night when she called me on her dinner break. We're having a totally fine conversation when she gets back to work and suddenly strikes up a conversation with said guy-about-her-age - like, mid sentence she's talking to him and now I'm just sitting on my ass listening to other people talk. My jimmies were already rustled, but then she starts talking to him about how she's been texting the weed hookup he told her about, and how she's happy to help him get some etc etc. After about five minutes of sitting there listening to this, she comes back and is oblivious. Gets home later, we argue.
Basically, she seems to have no concept of:
1) Why you shouldn't text strangers/coworkers about illegal drugs
2) Why you shouldn't strike up conversations with other people while in the middle of a phone call
3) Why a younger guy might want to keep talking to her at work
And now I don't know what to do because this all lines up to make me look like the overbearing paranoid boyfriend. Is that what I'm doing?

thanks /pol/ for the perspective

>>18604829
Your concern for her is a good one, but really, she's got to be able to talk to the people she wants to, about the topics she wants to. It is actually 100% her decision.
If you think she's being careless looking for weed, then offer to help her out if you know of a safer way to get it. But if you can't, or if she finds someone herself, well, that's her choice.
If you don't like her people to young men, well that's... that's kinda paranoid OP. The idea that it's inappropriate for women in relationships to talk to single men is... kinda extreme.
It is rude, though, for her to keep you on the phone while she talks to someone else. It's polite in that case either to tell you she needs to call you back or to just talk to the other guy later.
What is a good beard trimmer with a very fine level of control? Basically the ones I bought didn't have fine control. What I mean is, I need a trimmer that helps me trim at a very fine level. For example: Setting 1 should be stubble, Setting 2 should be a 0.5mm more than setting one etc.
The trimmers I got had huge variance. Setting one was too short for me and setting 2 made my beard too big. Hope that makes sense

Yesterday my girlfriend broke up with me and now says she only wants to be friends but I love her more than anything. She still wants to keep in touch but how do I get her to give me another chance? There must be some way of getting her to fall back in love with me. She's all I live for.

I'm in exactly the same situation as you are, except I just broke up with my girlfriend and she says things like what you wrote. Give it up, she broke up for a reason. Look for someone who wouldn't break up with you, it's as simple as that.
>>
Trying to control something out of your reach is a certain trip to sadness.
Accept that she doesn't want you now, examine if you wish to be friends or that would hurt you more than you want to handle. Decide.
But really, controlling other people's minds and wishes is just illusion... You can't do that, sorry to throw it in your face, but her wishes are hers and she has all the right to give up on the relationship.
Now think about you and your life.
What does this actually means? Should I worry? Should I get a shrink? Im not happy in my life, but I get used to it......
Something like "you dont have to be happy to live"......

Hey.
There's been a fight between me and a friend that I had since the mid 90s that I believe has killed every possibility of ever recovering that.
Every year he visits my city but he's having it harder and harder to come due to economical issues and problems with his family of the "I don't want you around" kind. I've been friends with him for a long time but knowing that he's been close enough, even though I see him for like a week or two every year, I wanted to be more honest with him about what I thought about different subjects, and I wanted to be more open and not just tiptoe around issues.
He's been talking to me, asking for some support because he's been having a few issues here and there. The thing is that his life issues are fairly ambiguous. Everytime I try to press further so I can maybe share a thought or two, or everytime I figure something out and tell him straight, he acts as though I'm attacking him and invading on his personal life somehow. I keep explaining to him about the multiple ways to approach specific problems, and since I do share similar problems he acts as though this shouldn't come from me at all.
So earlier today I got a bit heated and told him to be straight with me and tell me what he thought, even if it could "hurt" my sensibilities so to speak. Specially because he really tried hard to be delicate about everything and he didn't actually say anything concrete. He thought I was going mad for a second and told me that he wanted to change the subject, then pretended that nothing happened.
Anyways...
Come an hour ago or so and he's doing nothing but "oh wait, I shouldn't say anything. Oh, yeah but I can't talk about that because you might not want to hear about it". Time after time. Things get more heated and... I fuck up so to speak. All I do apparently is attack him and being hurtful, so I tell him that we should see each other next year, and that devolves into shit from the past.
Cont.

So he did make a sacrifice to come here and as far as I know, there's not exactly that many people here who he would bother with. I feel bad to the core about that, let's be clear. However I cannot tackle this. Even though I told him that if it wasn't convenient for him and his well being, he shouldn't come, he did it anyways, then acted as though I was the reason for it and should pretty much suck his dick for it. Even though I've done a lot of shit in the last 4 years, it's all to his credit, because back in 2013 he gave me one solid piece of advice that motivated me. I truly wanted to help him and it didn't just seem to fail, but it produced a very ugly effect.
After that heated conversation there are probably very few chances to actually "reconcile" so to speak, unless we're willing to permanently lie to ourselves. What do you think, should I move on from this? We're talking about a friendship that lasted since I was 6 up until today (I'm 29). It's no damn joke. 2 years ago it almost got heated because he really wanted to take almost $100 from me without me noticing, but I had to question my friendship with him at that point and he decided not to do it. He's not "remembering" now, let's say.
>>
tl;dr lost a childhood friend to honesty, because he didn't want to hear shit but he still wanted help, should I continue this path and give a fucking arm to recover this or just move on with my life with the pain of losing this for a while
>>
What the fuck are you rambling about? You're bitching out your friend about being vague when trying to share his problems and you're doing the exact same thing? Fuck off, m8.
The best thing I can tell you is that sometimes people just need some support and an ear to listen and not necessarily someone picking apart their lives - they're probably doing that in their head already.

How do you anons deal with it? I've been on the shit end of it for around eight years now, it's come on stronger and weaker over the years but it's always been there. I was on medication (Fluoxetine (Prozac)) for a while but I hated every moment of being on the course because the pills made me TOO content with how everything was, I lost any sharp edge I had with my thinking. Basically, can we talk about it? Do any of you anons suffer from depression?

I've been dealing with it for about as long as you have. I've been on and off those medications, even some atypical ones and nothing has really helped. The only thing that's ever really helped is distracting myself. Retail therapy, gambling, alcohol, dating websites, books, just anything I can immerse myself in. I don't recommend that though. My advice really is no good, I just wanted someone to be sad with.
>>
>>18604699
There are many medication options. Try others until you find the right fit. Attend therapy. I don't know I'm still struggling hard. Without lexapro I'd be even more nuts right now
>>
>>18604699
I've had depression for a few years now, but only two.. episodes?? I don't really know how they're called. I tried Adofen, which comes to be fluoxetine and it did work for me, both times.
But if you're not going, I'd say you must go to therapy. Find the right person, don't stick with someone you don't feel 100% secure or satisfied with just so you don't have to start all over with someone new.
