I'm not a fan of the white alien creature with the black eyes that is now the mascot of autism.
Who created it? What is the origin story?
And most importantly= Why did everyone so readily accept it?
I really do not like it! It looks too sad.
We deserve a cuter mascot!
Every time a car crash happens, they whip out their phone.
Every time some celebrity shows up, they whip our their phone.
Every temple, they just stand there recording the whole thing as if the temple exists to enhance someone's Instagram.
I gave my acquaintance advice on her business, she took my words and made a whole podcast episode about it. I asked her about it, turns out she recorded the convo without my knowledge.
Every time I go to a restaurant, I see so many couples just on their phones the entire time except one selfie, then back to their phones.
My friend works as a bouncer at a bar. He was telling me about New Years eve. Only about 5 groups came. Each group was the same pattern. They walked in, started dancing and recorded a video. Then immediately left. They just went to the bar to create the perception that they were dancing and having a good time. They never danced when they weren't recording. Never smiled or even spoke much to each other, just staring at their phones.
I feel like a lot of people leave the house just for the purpose of creating content. Everything is content.
In Google Ads, I can't find the total ROAS for the products belonging to a specific custom label 1.
It only shows me individual product ROAS and performance.
How do I get the aggregate ROAS for the custom label?
My coworker quit so i have a much bigger workload.
I have to move to a new apartment.
I'm having some issues with my freelancing side hustle, my boss is hard to communicate with.
I just hate how life throws multiple problems at me simultaneously. My autistic brain can only really handle one at a time but life always comes at me with more than one issue at a time.
I had relative peace the past 12 months. But now it's chaos.
I was thinking back to college days. I realized no matter how drunk I was, my behavior never changed.
But neurotypicals always had completely different behavior and acted a little crazy when drunk.
When I called/texted people, no one could notice I was drunk.
Anyone else just stay the same when drunk?
Is this an autism thing?
I work from home and don't have a car so it's cheaper to buy groceries online and have them delivered to my apartment.
I just learned today that a lot of groceries do dynamic pricing. Fry's Food and Food City are 2 grocery stores that don't do dynamic pricing (as of now) and they're local.
The problem is Fry's food always has onions that go bad after only a few days.
Food city doesn't have native online shopping so I would have to rely on Instacart/doordash. Instacart/doordash uses dynamic pricing.
Safeway is another option that i've been using lately but they're known to use dynamic pricing.
What do I do?
I can't figure out the solution to my issue.
I've noticed the past 2 years half of the vehicles that pick me up for Uber are expensive vehicles: BMW, Mercedes, Lexus.
How are they affording these?
After taxes, maintenance, insurance, gas... do they even have any money left over?
Last month I got picked up by 2 Mercedes Benz cars.
I've noticed the last 5 years whenever someone older joins the company and they talk about their hobbies, it usually involves the outdoors or something with their hands (pottery, painting etc).
But whenever a young person talks about their hobbies, they immediately start listing their favorite Netflix shows. Not all of them but most just say "netflix" when asked what their hobby is. But older people usually can list more than one hobby.
I've been working in white collar jobs for 7 years now.
I've noticed the big company meetings where everyone has to attend, it's basically just the C-suite executives just speaking corporate word salads for an hour straight.
No matter what company I'm at, it's basically 2 categories=
And whenever the directors get confronted by the client about a mistake the team made, they'll just hit them with a word salad like a politician: "We implemented overly restrictive negative keywords that were promptly removed".
What really happened was they fired all entry level staff in the US and replaced them with people in Argentina and pay them $5 per hour and they don't understand English and can't do any math so they made a huge mistake and so this publicly traded company on the NASDAQ had their monthly revenue drop 30%.
I have a job now but might start searching again.
2 years ago when I was job searching, I was getting 1 to 4 job interviews per week but still took me 6 months to get a job offer.
I mastered writing resumes but suck at job interviews.
I work remotely so all my interviews are remote. So I write the questions/answers on a txt file. The problem is I end up with 40 questions/answers and take too long trying to find the answer because my script is so long.
I also have a monotone voice
How do I get better at doing job interviews?
2 years ago when I was job searching, I was getting 1 to 3 job interviews per week.
However, it took me 6 months to finally get a job offer and get employed.
I work remotely and the job interviews are remote so i tried to create a script with all the questions and answers on a txt file and try to read off of it. problem was I ended up with over 40 questions/answers and it took so long to find each answer.
I'm not interviewing anymore because i have a job now. But now that I'm on the other side and actually conducting interviews, it just reminded me of how difficult interviewing is.
My boss tells me to "do a vibe check" for interviewees and I just think how the reason why I wasn't good at job interviews was because i didn't pass the "vibe check". which is basically checking if they're neurotypical or not.
I wish I was evaluated on my technical skills rather than vibe checks
