arakura Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I want to stop working Sundays x.x I wish they'd hire enough people... Also your comment made me laugh, eclipsed. Not sure if it was a joke or not, though. Also your line of thinking seems on the mark, Rooke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that I get along with my co-workers and classmates pretty well, we can get together and finish the job / do classwork & studygroups together and have some enjoyable banter but at the end of the day they're all just acquaintances and it's "see you next time!" It's weird though because it's a conflicted desire; I want to get closer to people, but I also don't want to at the same time because too much effort Holy crap, you're literally me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred the Barber Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 The only close friends I found in college were roommates. That goes for both the initial random roommates freshman year, and the random ones I chose later. Strong recommendation: more roommates is better (where I was, 4 was the most common). Assuming you go to college at some point and have the opportunity to have a dorm room and roommates, you should do it, even if you think you're a loner (by choice or by destiny). It can definitely be a bad experience, but from what I saw, it's almost always a good one - it's a risk worth taking. That said, once you're out of college, you're all probably going to disperse and not see each other again, unless you put in real effort towards it (unlikely). That's certainly what happened to me. But it was still well worth it. Also, realistically, once you move out of your parents' place, you'll probably have to get a roommate anyway to control costs. Choose wisely and that, too, can be a very good experience, though I think that one requires more luck. I still play games online and chat with my old (post-college) roommate nearly every week, even though he lives across the country; frankly, I pretty much only play that game as a chance to connect with him.

Darklord Rooke Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Confession: I was depressed last week, and somehow ended up buying 80 books from Amazon. I don't remember buying 80 books, but I apparently did, so I have no choice but to enjoy them immensely. Some of them are really trashy, enjoyable but trashy. They'll go in my 'guilty reading' folder ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eclipsed Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Once you learn that personal bankers earn commissions based on their 'sales' performance it's actually pretty cute watching all the pitches they throw at you. Opening a savings account? Yo if you deposit $15k you'll get $200 (and I'll get a bonus too) Hey how 'bout this credit card? No APR for the first year, and spending $500 gets you $150 back! (And I get dat bonus) You got any other friends/family you wanna refer (so I can milk their asses?) Yes, yes, and YES!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
