so I grew up the poor way and had to get my GED. So now I have a big question.
I want to get into a trade, and have autism to the point that I can't do low level jobs like wal-mart and mcdonalds because that is FAR beyond my social abilities. But trades are fine because I am good at manual labor and I'm honestly smart, just not people smart.
Now my fear is, what if after I get a trade certification, what if I get injured? I can't fall back on the easy low level jobs due to my lack of social comprehension. I would have no where to go if I was...

99% of all accidents are preventable
And most companies follow strict rules, both from the goverment, but also from within the companies, because workers compensation is expensive and it's expensive to loose qualified workers to accidents.
Be smart, lock-out-tag-out, THINK before you act, tie your shoelaces, wear those safety goggles, wear those safety boots, wear those safety gloves
Become an electrician OP, it requires booksmarts, especially now a days where you can basically be a programmer at a factory as an electrician (ours do mess with the programming on the SCADA)
Also, factory work attracts plenty of social misfits, we both have a full-blown live-at-home-until-40-sperg, a fat nerd, a fat entrepanour, a former bodybuilder, and several guys that have worked there since they were in their teens (myself included actually)
Factory work is where its at. No office politics, not too much personal bullshit unless you like to talk about it, if you just shut up you will be ignored, if you talk about your interests people will laugh at you and gossip about you, but they don't give a flying fuck as long as you as able to do your fucking job.
Basically, as long as you are able to talk coherently about work and relay messenges and get your meaning across, you will be accepted.
Factory work muh nigga

Does... does time go by fast in a factory? I've stacked boxes in warehouses and its like being in purgatory

This. If you get a workplace injury you're fucking set for life. It'll still suck because it's a major injury, true, but what it means is the companies will be more likely to have strict regulations that prevent you being injured in the first place because...

help /adv my gf and I were just kind of hanging around in an alleyway and then she saw a neo-nazi walking by and stabbed him and I think he's dead now.
there's blood everywhere and he's not breathing and she's just kind of standing there shaking
what do I do????
>>17147369

>find black guy

OK.
I think my roommate put something in my shampoo that causes balding, noticed him being there for a long time not doing anything and since then its been 3 weeks and my hair is balding af
what could he have done to the liquid to cause balding? he's pretty psychotic and I've been distancing myself from him because of that so my suspicions are well justified.

Is it falling out in patches? or is it in a pattern?
>>17147273
in general my hair has been a lot thinner, whenever I touch and shuffle my hair I can instantly feel my scalp, whereas before it was really thick
pattern I guess
I know this guy, got him on my friend's list on facebook, should I tell him about it or stay out of it?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33go4obuc54&feature=youtu.be
>>17147163
why was he outside of his apartment while naked? where did he come from while naked? maybe he shouldn't have been a racist and expected no consequences. Don't bother telling him.
>>17147169
He might think I have something to do with this. But yeah I should tell him so he can make yt delete it
Let me tell him xD I will laugh, and laugh until he blocks me lol
So why can't I get used to social anxiety/ panic attacks the same way I get used to porn, food, gore etc. etc. ?
You got used to porn food and gore the same way? What are you doing to the food.

Shit man we aren't scientists. You want some advice on how to deal with it, we got you, but get out of here with this 'why' bullshit.
Bitch.

It just doesn't make any sense
Such a strange way to be
Cillian murphy looks a lot like the guy I lost my virginity to, whenever I see an image of Cillian Murphy I get horrible, uncomfortable flashbacks. It wasn't rape or anything, just horrifically awkward
Is there a way to enjoy Cillian Murphy films or browse /tv/ without the fear of getting triggered?
The first is awkward for everyone, get over yourself. None of you did anything wrong.
>>17146860
But at least other people can forget it while I have to deal with the cringe on a regular basis
>>17146856
Don't browse /tv/ or disable the OP's pic, I have never seen the guy or any of his movies so I doubt it would be that hard to avoid seeing his face.

I want to biz but, they ignored me.
I've been thinking of opening a tea store, I know an area that has a high employment rate, doing good economically over all.
I have never done this before so I understand there will be more hurdles than I would like to admit to.
Some questions.
Do I franchise one? Like open up under a well known chain?
Is it better to be mom and pop style?
Does credit history matter when taking out a business loan?
What other things can you tell me?
Maybe tell me some pros and cons.
>>17146802
I don't use /biz but I assume it's because you have apparently done literally no research on your own.
>Do I franchise one? Like open up under a well known chain?
I wasn't aware there was a tea shop franchise, but ok. How much would this cost? How much revenue is their advertising worth?
>Is it better to be mom and pop style?
Is it? What's going to be the difference in operating cost and revenue?

>>17146822
I figured I'd ask people first before doing research.
This idea came to me last night before I fell asleep.
Upon googling the franchise they don't offer franchising for people.
I imagine it would probably be more expensive if I went old school mom and pop.
Okay credit history is going to be an issue.
I will do some googling but, if you or anyone else can tell me about their experiences I am very open to it.
>>17146802
There's tea franchises?
Hey /adv/ so I recently came out a long term relationship and I am pretty autistic when it comes to flirting or picking up if a girl is interested or not. Either I read too much into things or I am too oblivious.
I really like this girl that I met recently, I think she is interested, but just want to post some screenshots of messages just to make sure I'm not reading too much into anything before I ask her out? If anyone is willing to read through my autistic spaghetti
I went out for coffee with her, she's friends with my friends. Found out she has the same hobbies as me so we spoke about hiking/camping in a town nearby
Talking about costume ideas for a mutual friends birthday that she couldn't make it to
Spoke about travelling and such and next big holiday plans
My grandpa said that when you become bestfriends with your S/O, your partner gets lazier, fatter and grosser, things get really boring. My grandma is still pretty attractive for her age, my grandpa says grandma has a lot of hobbies and friends and so does he, so it doesn't get to that phase. He says, we all want someone to love us no matter what but your partner doesn't deserve to see his gf/bf eat 2 big whole bags of chips and gain 15 pounds in a few months. Basically he's just saying it's not good to see your partner as a bestfriend, as it makes both of...

What might have worked for your grandpa might not work for you...his was a different time and he's a different person from you. IMHO a balance should be struck between being friends and lovers, and that should include encouraging positive, healthy choices for one another.
>>17146757
If you've ever had a best friend it's way better than someone that just sticks their dick in your hole.
It's a best friend that you can fuck, a couple is lucky if they can ever become that close.
>>17146757
I'm best friends with my husband and I think you grandpa gives shit advice. We've been married for 10 years and I have given birth to three kids and I am still a pretty fucking hot milf.
Being best friends and being absolutely comfortable around each other, dropping your guard completely has nothing to do with lazy people who decide do drop basic hygiene and health habits.
I still want to be attractive and for me it's even hard work to eat all the time to gain weight.
So, I might have a gf. Or at least a girl interested in me a little bit. We kissed a little last night. What the fuck do I do now? I'm not a virgin, but I've been out of the game for years.
We are both 27. Help me not fuck it up. How do I kiss right, how do I hold her? How do I initiate things (or take cues not to initiate?)
Any advice. Anything at all, no matter how small.
>MRW she first kiss me
Take it easy dude. Don't rush.
>>17146655
Dude how is that even possible. Okay you have no clue what to do. Then just let it Roll and chill out and do what you think is right atm.
>>17146677
I've waited a long time, so I'm not going to rush. I just don't want to come across as uninterested or unexciting.
>>17146704
I will of course try, but as it's my first relationship in so long, I am obviously keen to make it work.
How do I stop obsessing over a girl? She's married and normally I get completely turned off when I find out a girl has a bf already, but I can't stop thinking about her even when I tell myself she's married and there's no way anything would happen and I wouldn't want anything to happen.
It's completely fucking me up right now, I can hardly think of anything but her and I'm constantly keeping track of what she's doing and I get jealous when anyone but her husband talks to her
>>17146645
You're completely emotionally involved with her. You need to distance yourself for your own good. Nothing good can come of this situation and it's obvious that you can't be just friends with her.
Does she have a history of infidelity?
>>17146661
I don't think she does, I haven't known her for too long really and I wouldn't want to be involved with her while she was still in a relationship. Hell, I try to tell myself that I wouldn't want to even if she split up.
I guess distancing myself would be the best/easiest option, but I'd really not like to lose one a friend when I don't have that many to lose in the first place
>>17146673
She's not your friend anymore, she's a romantic interest, and she's married. If she's got you to this point she's obviously has issues with her marriage and needs additional orbiters around to get the emotional intimacy she requires. In my opinion she is already being unfaithful to her husband and if she can do that to him she can do that to you.
Guard your heart anon.
How to deal with jealousy? It's making me so anxious that all I want to do is sleep and I feel like puking and I have uncomfortable feeling in my heart. Speaking doesn't help since I have already asked about the person I am jealous and I was told that nothing is going on so I don't want to drive my SO away by being overly jealous. I just don't want to lose them to this other person.
Pls halp ;_;
What is it you're actually jealous about?
Always trust you gut feeling.
About 2 years ago, I was mostly invisible to women. I had to walk up to girls, start flirting and work hard to get any date at all.
This has changed dramatically now. After 2 years of heavy working out, girls often come up to me at clubs and social events.
I've had multiple occasions a girl that is a complete stranger come out of the blue to kiss me or grope me.
Following a weekly regimen of heavy compound movements is the most effective way to become attractive to women.
To achieve this, I went at least three times a week to the gym to did series...

take one day rest between working out days.
the first days it will be sore as fuck
So me and my gf had sex and when we finished she realized she was 45 minutes late taking her birth control. She took it but was still 45 minutes late from the daily time she usually takes it.
We did not use a condom obviously and I came inside her at full force as deep as possible after a week of no fap or sex.
What are the chances that she's now pregnant?
>>17146462
She'll be fine.
>>17146462
Relax. The "same time every day" rule is just there to make it a regular habit so she won't forget and skip a day. 45 minutes doesn't matter.
It's fine. Half-life on birth control is around 30 hours.
