Search Results: would you rather

I saw a rather sad post the other day that said that women are given so much positive reinforcement gets so much positive attention that the slightest bit of criticism will destroy their self esteem and that men are so starved of positive affirmation that the slightest compliment will make their day, week, month or decade.

This is back to front given men are the ones actually building and creating a society that is functional, provided for and running safely on the whole that continues to make improvements and women are not infallible but bring the human part of humanity into existence through their nurturing and caring at the foundation of life.

Compliment someone, don't fight or bicker. We're all paddling in the same seas

I am supposed to be getting married this year and I am sinking financially.

I was an Advanced EMT working in public safety many years ago, until I got into some trouble and lost my license due to 2 misdemeanor convictions (stemming from same incident; never having been in trouble before)

I switched careers into the tech industry and worked as a software developer for 4 years. Sadly, the job market in tech has been destroyed.

Sadly, despite being highly skilled and capable, I feel like I am going to have to settle. Even my mom is rather disappointed that I am considering truck driving, when she said I "could have been a doctor" but those damn misdemeanors from long ago are holding me back.

I am going to truck driving school, and they are lining it up to where I can at least have my wedding. But afterwards, I will be away from home for about a year, only being able to have a few days off every few weeks.

Although, I have the potential of making up to $1,500 a week. I was making $76k/yr at my cozy remote web developer job, but as I said, my industry has been wrecked.
