Last thread I'm going to make on this.

Tomorrow I need to make a decision on one of two jobs. Almost all of the signs point toward taking the smaller job - it offers more money, more flexibility, and better pay.

That said, the other job has a bigger title, and I just sat and watched one of their commercials, reminding me how I'd like to have a bigger influence on a bigger company's decisions.

Do I go for short term satisfaction, or long term brand recognition?

Sounds like you're choosing between a small company that pays well and sees you as a human being and a large company that will treat you like another cog in their machine

What about this "brand recognition" could possibly even benefit you?

>>17916701
Take the message of the commercials with a grain of salt. There's no way you'll have any big influence in a big company unless you're in upper management or something.

So a few months ago I fucked up and got arrested for DWI. I have no criminal record at all minus a few traffic tickets. Greentxt

>meeting girlfriend and coworker for drinks in downtown
>have about 4 beers, bought two for my girlfriend
>at around 1AM stop drinking to sober up
>girlfriend leaves and I stick around for a few more minutes
>drive down about 30 minutes to girlfriends place south
>get pulled over for swerving in lanes
>get pulled out of the car and asked to do tests
>in my mind, pass most of the tests except the stand on one leg test (did fine on my right leg but poorly on my left leg)
>wait outside for decision
>get cuffed and arrested for DWI
>do breathalyzer at station and record a .16
>get charged, wait for bail for around 5 hours
>get bailed out, get my car and head home

It took about 4 months from the arrest to get my trial date to which I postponed due to not having a lawyer. Now the court date is in less than a week and I am still lawyerless since most lawyers around me are too pricey as of right now (if I get a good paycheck I can hire one by friday).

My question here is 2fold:

1: Will postponing my date one time prevent me from postponing again a second time?

2: What are my chances of beating this? My job is at a craft brewery and chances are I would be fired for any alcohol related convictions. Any advice would be recommended.

No, it shouldn't be an issue. They might not even have all your paperwork processed. You can explain to them your situation about your financial position and hiring a lawyer but you need to do as soon as possible. You should have just signed the paper when you first went to court saying you didn't have a lawyer. Or if you haven't been to court and this is your first time that's when you'll get the chance to hire a public defender. That paper I was talking about, they hand it out and you let the court know if you have an attorney or need an attorney. Nothing happens the first court date, unless you straight up plead guilty and take whatever charges they hand out.

You won't beat this. You failed a breathalyzer, and are literally twice the limit in Texas, and you failed the field sobriety test. I can guarantee when you get the report back it'll say you had X amount of indicators that let the officer know you were too impaired to drive. Your best bet it to get an attorney and let them work out a plea deal with the DA. Expect to get probation for a year, at least 24 hours of Community Service, have to attend a few different classes related to drinking and drinking and driving, have your license suspended for 90 days (you can get an occupation license, the attorney can help with this if you need help), a fine, and a surcharge on your license for the next year years. To avoid the probation you can just go to jail for a few days but you'll still be hit with all the other shit.

Lastly, you don't have to tell your job anything, but it might be hard to cover up due to missing work for probation meetings.

You can pay everything in installments. They'll get their money and they don't care how long it takes as long as they get it.

Moral question

So, I want to donate $900 to a fundraiser I saw two weeks back.
.
It's hosted by a girl, relation went like this:

>Had English class together
>I think I was drinking when I sperged out, I asked her to leave me alone
>we harassed one another at different stages 2014
>2016 sent a ton of messages after parent died, while on drugs.

Thoughts on me putting up the $900?

It's for making wigs for kids with cancer, I got bullied for being different in primary school. It would be a nice thing.

Tried to kill myself on Christmas, I had $21,000 saved but my brother took 10, I have a few left but honestly cash means nothing to me at the moment. I'm about to get $9,000 because my dad was in Vietnam.

I'm not interested in perusing a friendship so I'm not sure if it's right or not to donate.
If she says thank you i'll just ignore it or link the thread.


What the fuck else am I going to buy? I want to take dance lessons. I went to the club for the first time last week. Dancing is fun, but I don't feel comfy having girls rub against my ding a ling.

Man, it's never easy, especially if it's your first.

Just occupy your free time with things you enjoy or shit you need to get done. Get rid of any reminders of her. Focus on getting to a better state of mind.

Yeah it sucks and seems like the end of the world, but somebody else will inevitably come along. Don't stress about it too much.

Booze helps.

You will get over her. Has it been a month, or has it been like 6 months already.
Took me a few years to get over the girl I was going to marry. She was a con artist and scammer. Some women see their husband as someone to steal from.

The thing about being in college is that its a time in your life when you have no idea who you are or what you want. You have absolutely no experience with adult relationships or even being independent from your parents. In essence, you're still a child.

I'd say its nice to start thinking about the kinds of things you want in a long term relationship in college but in reality you're not old enough yet to even know what you want in a lifelong partner. You might think you do but you definitely don't.

When I was a teen I had a friend 4 years younger than, this kid was the polar opposite of me, actually, he helped me break out of my shell quite a bit. He was really outgoing so he took me to parties, having never been to one myself. He was really good with girls. I lost my virginity at 17, while he at 15 had fucked more girls than I had at 18.
I am a high school dropout, and when he finished high school he went for his first semester at uni to Australia, he also traveled to Japan, Amsterdam, and lived in Berlin last time I heard of him.
Now I haven't seen him in years, but sometimes I remember him. Of course he probably doesn't as much as remember me, I am not a very memorable person. I don't know where he is or what he is doing now, but I'm guessing that he's living a really nice life while I am here thinking I should get my GED and trying to fight my procrastinating habits to get some computer skills.
I not only think of him, but of other people who I see on the internet who are doing really creative things, music and the like, while all I've done with my life is struggle selling my shit on the street. Even now, I want to get gud at computer stuff but not only do I procrastinate but I also overwhelm myself and generally can't commit to a project and finish it.
So while these people are in their early 20s exploiting their creativity and getting a lot done, I am here at 25 unable to finish a single project and wondering how will I be able to make a living out in the world.
I try to be positive, and keep myself motivated, but I can't seem to put myself together, have no passion, and even though I try to discipline myself my mind seems unable to stick to something.

How do I find a passion or exploit my creativity and so something interesting?
Even if I try to discipline myself, I just lose interest. Right now I'm just working on computers because it might land me a job.... I don't want to live a life that makes me want to hang myself.

stop wasting time on an anonymous Korean hand knitting website for starters. SO many of these feels threads are the same. Im lonely, I dont have a GF, Im unemployed, no friends, so ideas, what should I do?
the best thing to do is to get off your ass and go looking for it. Go to school or get a job if you want to succeed. go to a club or bar or join some kind of social event if you want to meet people. You need to put yourself out there and experiment, even if youre not sure what you want. If anything thats better, have a few ideas and be willing to try them. If you dont like them that consider it working your way down the list.
Dont bother comparing yourself to others, I know its hard but the grass is always greener. That kid might seem perfect, but thats because hes not going to tell you the things that are going wrong. Nobody will. And even if he doesnt who gives a fuck? Go at a pace youre comfortable with to figure yourself out, some people do this before you, some after you and some never at all. Dont slow yourself down with the image of others, they dont care.

Most importantly, after youre done reading this and this thread 404's, dont sit on your ass and wait until you get this feeling again and make the same thread to have some confirmation bias that youre either ok, or not alone in your problems. Get off you ass and fix those problems. You can do it, just as easily as you cant do it. So be the change you want and deserve or shut the fuck up

Not OP but this really hit me. I have to start taking all the classes I failed tomorrow due to not attending anything this past year.

It's really going to suck and I'm sure my friends are going to think Im retarded but this is the only way I can fix the mistakes I made. Still though, sometimes the thought of "is it all really worth it" comes up and I can't help comparing myself with all my successful friends.

I just don't want dying to feel like reward anymore, I want to be scared of death like everybody else...

I feel kind of down..

I'm a mid 20s guy, and like most guys, I like talking to cute girls. Now, I don't have sex with them or date them. I just like to talk to them. Friends. I've made a few great friends with females, but we could be talking a lot and everything. Some I've gotten quite close with, but then they get boyfriends and everything dies off. I still have contact with them, but it's very distant now. It makes me feel pretty down desu... I'm glad they are enjoying their relationships, but it sucks that they don't want to talk much anymore.

Why is this so hard

Some work like that, some don't.
They may come back if they break up, but don't really count on it. I used to talk to this girl a lot (even at night, when messenger was still a thing) but then she got a bf and everything changed, then she went to one boy to another and I barely have the chance to see her.
My advice would be to let them just be and just look for one girl who doesnt only think about his boyfriend, or you can always try to get one for yourself.

>My advice would be to let them just be and just look for one girl who doesnt only think about his boyfriend

it's just hard. Even this one girl who promised me our friendship wouldn't change after she got a boyfriend, that stayed true for a few months. But now we talk maybe once every few weeks :/

>or you can just try to find one for yourself

Well that's not going to happen
>>
>>17916760
I know it's hard, nobody said it was going to be easy, but it's not as simple as that.
I wish everything was as easy as making a single promise, but time changes people, sometimes slowly, sometimes not.
The worst thing you can do is giving up, try to focus on whatever you want to do, then women will come after that.
It may be hard, it WILL be painful, but you can do it, you can either man up or continue suffering.
And by telling you to man up I don't want to offend you or something like that, it's just that its easier to realize things kinda work like that.
Hope this helps you.

As story writer i finally got my inspiration back to write something. I have started quite big story about asylum and psychotherapy. So far i have no plot so far but i have few ideas for it.

What concerns me is the ending. I love creating twists in the end but now i cant think of anything. One problem is trying to make this story different from Stonehearst asylum or Shutter island.

Info about my story so far:
Main character is young psychotherapist that recently started working in huge asylum where other doctors are really old and boring so he really finds it interesting to talk with patients and get to know them more.

So help me anons and give me your ideas of plot twists for a story like this.

I really like the idea of doctor actually being a patient and all his work being just his imagination but that shit is overused in popular culture.

Any kinds of plot twists welcome

The asylum is just a front by the government to pull lesser known scientist to doing free controlled black op research.

I like the idea of involving government and some shady researches. But somehow that goes into sci fi that is one of my weakest side. Right now i am strictly having my own mini research about mental disorders to make patients more realistic.
Btw the story takes place in undecided year so i am still free to change it from 100 years ago to today or anything between.

So, I inherited a jar of coins from my grandmother, who died ten years ago. The inheritance was a jar of old coins, with a list of prices for them when they were categorized a few years later by my dad. It had been missing/forgotten on a shelf until tonight, and when opened up the jar, pic related was what I found at the top in a little sandwich baggy.

First google results indicate SWEET BABY JESUS, I'M RICH!

First thoughts: "Find out if this is fake, right the fuck now."

So, how do I tell if a coin is fake or a re-print, and barring that, is this coin a fake and how can you tell?

Go to a coin collector and pay the small amount to have them checked out. It's a worthy investment if they do give you money. Otherwise it's a sunk cost.

Remember to do an inventory of the coins before you go--just in case they try to jew you (which I doubt they will)

Brasher half doubloons are gold coins. For one, gold doesn't tarnish, whereas this looks like old brass; and two, you can clearly see that this coin is was plated, with a different metal showing in spots where it's been nicked and dinged.

Any christfag here willing to tell me what dating means to them?

I met a girl who I liked and early on she told me she was abstinent, so I didn't try to pursue her. However that made me wonder what dating means to Christians.

1. Do you think sex is sinful or unnatural or something like that?
2. Do you have a libido?
3. Do you have a physical attraction to your partner? If so, do you think its bad to have these thoughts?
4. If a partner has a high libido or wants lots of sex in their relationship, do you think they're sinful/perverted/addicted to sex/etc.?
5. What's the point of working out and trying to look good if you're never going to show it to anyone?
6. What's the difference between dating someone and just being their really good friend?

I don't understand this point of view.

1. Christians see sex as perfectly natural and not at all a sin, its a beautiful thing God designed, so since he has no problem with it we don't see any reason to avoid it, (I personally would say that teaching people to view sex as sinful is biblically wrong, and also pretty stupid). Christians (at least, people who actually follow Biblical teaching), see sex as special, it's meant to be the fullest pinnacle of what two people can do together, so it's meant for two people who have united themselves in every other area. Christians believe that establishing only a physical connection with another person (and not also being connected emotionally and otherwise), is ultimately bad for both people involved, and for the health of the relationship too. In summary, Christians don't see any problem with sex so long as it's in the proper context: marriage.
2. Most definitely, and I don’t have a Christian friend who has told me otherwise.
3. For most couples, (Christian, Buddhist, Atheist or what have you), physical attraction is the first step towards building a relationship, it obviously cannot be the only bond between two people or the relationship will fail, it just acts as the catalyst for drawing the two of you together. Christians agree that it’s okay to have a physical attraction to the person your dating, you just shouldn’t let that attraction consume you, focus on their other traits and value them for that as well, because the physical is temporary, but the other stuff will last.
4. One of the Christian married couples I look to as role models have sex on the daily, and that’s not something they’re shy about because they really do love each other, so each is willing to do pretty much anything for the other, and that’s how they’ve made the relationship work for 10 years. So most of us don’t see any problem with sex in marriage so long as its fully consensual (obviously) and takes place between two people who are married.
>>
5. We want to be healthy, the Bible tells us to let our bodies be temples for the Lord, so we should take care of them. But we also want to look good for each other, I don't think that's sinful, we shouldn't be prideful and believe that because we're "fit" we're better than someone else, but we can still enjoy looking good for the one we love.
6. For many Christians (and this does change based on where you're from, or if your some other denomination that doesn't care about Biblical teaching so much, like the Anglicans or PCA), dating is the process of looking for someone who you really "click" with, someone you'd want to spend the rest of your life with, this is referred to as "intentional dating", and someone following this is someone looking for a marriage partner, Christians still love their friends, but it's a somewhat different kind of relationship.
(This is from the Baptist point of view, which is pretty much the most basic stance on the Bible, no extra toppings)

I kissed my best friend's girlfriend this New Year's Eve. Just lips, mind. But still.
It's been obvious for a while that she's into me and I'm into her. Right before the countdown she asked her boyfriend if she could kiss me on the lips instead of the cheek (which would've been more appropriate) and he sort of grunted yes. Then she found me somewhere after the countdown in the hallway, looked me in the eye for a moment then grabbed and kissed me.

I'm getting kind of sick of this kind of attention. I mean, I love it. And she's amazing. But she's with my bro, you know. It just puts me into a really awkward position.
I think I should let my friend know what I think. About how she's into me and how he must know he can trust me, but he should keep an eye on her.
Any advice on how to talk to my bro about this? I'm really rather bad at this sort of thing, but I really feel like we need to clear the air.
