I’m trying to give someone advice on choosing a career that will suit them better than the one they’re in and hate. I wanted to get together a list of good questions for them to ask themselves so they can use the answers to compare options like “do you prefer to work sitting or moving around,” “do you want to not work...
You know it when you go to work and it doesn’t feel like work. It doesn’t feel like an absolute drag to get out of bed.
I’m an HVAC engineer. I love my job, to me it’s like spending all day solving logic puzzles or a detective mystery. I found I was pretty good at it about 6 months into the job, when I figured out a problem the senior techs couldn’t. I enjoy being out and about instead of chained to a desk.
A job/career doesn’t have to be a passion. Just something you don’t dread everyday. My passion is in sports but somehow engineering was something I was good at, it felt satisfying fixing things. I’d never make my passion my job cause I know it would completely ruin it for me.
Heard a guy respond to another guy calling him a motherfucker with ‘yeah, but your mom didn’t complain much’, so it got me thinking. What are your best comebacks for the common insults you hear from time to time?

Adding on to that, its not just the surplus produce. Its all the rest of the produce that’s unusable by us humans.
When we grow something like corn, we’re only growing it for the kernels that we can consume. We can’t physiologically make use of the stalks, stems and leaves, but an animal like the goat? They’ll chew up anything green and turn that into usable calories we humans can make use of.
The difference is whether there is a changing velocity or not.
Edit: On a carousel you are not accelerating, you are moving at a constant speed, but with changing velocity thats why you feel it. On earth, you are not accelerating either, and also at a constant speed. The difference is, this time your velocity is effectively nil, that’s why you don’t feel it.
Alright since you illiterates don’t understand the subtle difference between speed and velocity, here’s a PhD to explain it to you
We’re paying but it doesn’t feel like we’re customers. It feels like we’re paying protection money otherwise we get ads shoveled down our throats again.
Except where there’s little opportunity to utilize the highly skilled labor. They are going abroad anyway to find job opportunities befitting of their skill set and the highest bidder. Doesn’t matter if the US or EU took them, they’re leaving because the local opportunity doesn’t exist.
Ford for all his flaws had plenty of revolutionary ideas that actually improved workers conditions. Even if he only did it to capture the workers and “lock them in”, it was much better than what any of the competitors were offering and it forced the competitors to improve their conditions to retain workers.
The worst part of that ruling was that some of the minority shareholders were actually competitors and they used that money to start up their own competing factories.
Just goes to show how focusing on the business long term is always in the shareholders interests and most of the time focusing on shareholders interests aren’t in the best interest of the shareholders themselves. Modern day short sellers being the most egregious example of this.
When did you know a career was either the perfect or the worst match for your personality?
