The pad is pour separately by itself and it’s pretty small. So it’s not as stable as opposed to a larger area pour. Normally you would want a larger area pour so the concrete pad can sit more evenly unless the small separate pour is against hard edges on all four sides. In this case it’s held buy only half of the pad, so when the soil settles or erodes, it’ll breakaway.

That fried chicken biscuit tho 🤤

Do you have a second offer in hand? It’ll be easier to negotiate if you have a second offer in hand. If not, still ask, but if they are not giving you $70k, are you willing to walk away? Some firms know right off the bat the market and how they can negotiate your salary down. Don’t be surprised if they won’t give you what you deserve because they are betting on you not having a second offer and you taking their offer because you need a job. They can easily search on linked in and see how many firms are hiring EITs to see how competitive the market is.

This. Regardless of what people say, don’t burn your bridges. Give your two week notice now and leave.

That’s not even smart because who wants to waste money for insurance 😂 just buy a property that doesn’t require huge amount of insurance

Not to mention the yen is cheap now!!

Your makeup is perfect as it is! If you want a change have you thought about experimenting with a new hair style? It’ll freshen up your look depending on the style you choose ☺️

Don’t get married if you are not sure. It’s easy to get married but hard to get a divorce.

Same! I was allergic to my bf’s cats. I just took my regular seasonal allergy pills (OTC), eventually I build a tolerance and it went away. My eyes will still itch if I directly touch my eyes or if they accidentally scratched me, but that’s it.

But let’s be honest with the fact that being skinny increases your odds of being noticed. That is still the advantage that skinny people hold over chubby people regardless of the other person’s intentions.

I agree. If someone is really really interest, you bet bottom dollar they are going to try their best not to lose their interest. Dating is already hard, so when people see someone they like, they will go out of their normal routine to try their best.

When you quit, don’t they make people sign a non-compete during that time?

Also you have to gauge how likely your existing clients will follow you. As a client, they’ll most likely follow the company since they are more established and have more resources to assist them. If you’re gone, they’ll just wait for the next engineer being assigned to them.

Being an Asian American growing up in Hong Kong (born in the states but stayed in HK for 10 years), just wait until you hear Chinese people hating on Chinese people too 😂

Then they are simply not for each other and incompatible. In this day and age with online dating, if you want to even have a chance with someone (regardless of gender) you have the text within a reasonable amount of time to show interest at the beginning stages. If one person doesn’t like texting, don’t expect the other person who they are interested would understand or accept it. They are free to move on to someone else, but don’t complain why they fail at online dating when they don’t like texting.

Case in point, my bf doesn’t like texting and he’s too chill for anything and sleeps a lot. It takes him a long time to respond to other people. But when we first start dating, he texts back pretty frequent and even if he’s at work, he will tell me that he won’t be able to respond when he’s off work. I’ll tell him to same thing if I’m busy and Ill try to text him promptly. If one is interested, they will make it work.

This. Even when someone is super busy or working, they will bound to look at their phone at some point. And even if they are busy, they will at least say “I’ll be at work and won’t be able to respond the next 8 hours” etc.

Growing up in Hong Kong, it’s also very normal to hold umbrellas to block the sun. You wonder why people don’t get sun damaged skin 😅

Just curious. This friendship seems so one sided. Why did you ask her to be your MOH? Are you guys even close?

The only reason I could think of is that she doesn’t see you as a close friend as much as you do and feels awkward about it but didn’t want to say it in your face.

But we all did it through Covid regardless of age?

This. The common decency would be to wear a mask.

Same, and the most honest to god answer 😂

Same, weekday evenings are the best time everywhere

Transportation

This reminds me of Talos Principle!!
