I guess I see people who it seems like their life goal is to be social basically. Then, I see other people who it seems like they barely hang out with anyone. Are both ways completely fine to live?
Examples of famous people who have minor imperfections on their face:
- Drew Brees
- Alex Palou
- Harrison Ford
- Kate Middleton
If you were these people and could get rid of them, would you?
I just feel like probably over 3 out of 4 people in the world have this mindset:
"I just want a well paying job so I can take care of myself. It doesn't matter to me at all if 90% of people below my can't afford any of the things they need. If I'm good I'm happy".
Then like 80% of people get declined for good jobs automatically and one of the main reasons is because of connections. Like, people at the top know each other well and create sort of a high school clique.
Or is society not like this?
Is it mainly because that's the type of culture they grew up in?
My view is simply: people can do what they want when it comes to relationships. You can just have casual relationships, you can have no relationships, you can just be friends with people, etc.
If you go through my messages at work where I'm talking about non work related subjects, all of them are from women basically.
There's literally only two men asking me about non work related topics. There's about 20 women asking me about non work related topics. Also, the percentage of men to women in the company is probably about 75% men and 25% women.
Do any other men have this experience or something similar? I feel like every guy I talk to is short in the number of words they say too. I don't get it.
Are women just more social?
My job is basically to check the work other people are doing at my company. So I'm just curious about getting some insight from people on how they would prefer for me to act. For example, would you only want me to point out something you're doing as being wrong if it's a big deal? Would you like it if I stayed silent pretty much all the time? Would you want me to give you a lot of feedback? Or something else?
I'm required to check your work since it's a contract requirement that the customer has. If I check your work and don't notice an error it would mostly be me who receives the blame and not you. You'd probably get like 25% of the blane and I'd get like 75%. I'm basically an auditor.
Like, say someone did that. How bad is that in all reality. I was wondering.
What could happen as a result of this?
I was on a bus today for the first time in probably 10 years. I guy probably dropped like 100 f bombs randomly and everyone could hear him. Is that very trashy or not really?
For example, he said out loud to everyone "so where are you motherf****** going"
I grew up on the West Coast of the United States. Everytime I visit the East Coast for work I think "I could never live here. I would be homesick all the time". How do some people live like this though?
Are they correct, being jealous, not correct, or something else?
Is it sort of like a luck of the gene draw?
Like, if I'm a dentist or engineering executive does that have zero to do with if I would be a good parent? Or would some of the skills translate?
To me, it seems like 1 out of 4 people view at least some coworkers as friends. Then, maybe 1 out of 4 view zero coworkers as friends. Then the rest of people are sort of in between. Like, maybe they'll hang out at restaurants with coworkers and be somewhat social, but not much more than that.
Is there not a right or wrong? Is it just what people want to do?
Sometimes if you don't pay back a loan or credit card company they won't say anything for a long time. Why is that? Are they sitting back to come up with a strategy to get the money from you? Did they write some of the debt off as a loss? Are they hoping you pay them back?Something else?
Like, why does it strongly seem that if you were given $1,000,000 that you would be very happy but in reality you probably wouldn't. Why do humans make this assumption?
My boss is this way. It wouldn't be uncommon at all if I go 3 months without saying one word to him.
I was just curious about other people's experiences.
Pretty much every email conversation my coworker has she starts with saying "good morning" or "good afternoon". But it seems like people only say "good morning" or "good afternoon" back like 20% of the time or less.
Why would she keep saying that if the other people aren't responding to it?
Say I'm a 30 year old guy talking to a mom who has a daughter who's about 30. Then when she asks if I'm interested in dating her daughter I tell her "I'm not interested". Then the parent dislikes me basically. Is that unreasonable or understandable?
