I really liked the dancing woman and Safa and their independence!

what does merit listed mean?

Seems like a basic safety/planning kind of question since you’d be in the middle of a body of water

I think so, too. Swimming with a life jacket in my opinion is more difficult than swimming without one. However, I would think that treading water is more difficult than swimming with a life jacket so maybe if swimming with a life jacket is the expectation, then that’s ok.

Backing it up one step further, a common beginner mistake is to decide on a destination irrespective of the wind direction. This sometimes makes sailing more difficult than it needs to be and can result in the unnecessary torturing of guests as the captain stubbornly pounds into wind and wave to achieve a destination not superior to other options that would provide a more congenial travel experience.

this is really helpful, thank you!

hmm maybe there is health insurance but it wasnt mentioned during the initial call. i ask for compensation of 90-100K, said it was negotiable and expect it will be negotiated down, at least it wont be 65K.

Not sure what that means but yeah, no health plan or stock options. There’s a 401K with some matching. It’s just the salary with the bonus.

10% annual and prorated. no other compensation. just salary and up to 10% bonus. no gym membership or housing etc mentioned.

bonus is up to 10%

i can deal with work-related stress but if i have to worry about paying bills, that’s what i completely want to avoid.

i’ll look into this - thanks for the response!

the world of the rich vs the average person…

of all the places to not have easy access to healthcare…

i love the yellow pulling from the blazer

and unfortunately it’s the fabric for most of the readily available clothes now!

has the US considered…not funding them?

Ignoring the fact that gender dysphoria is a real thing whereas hysteria isn’t,

I’m not sure how you can make this your premise; back then hysteria was very much “a real thing”. Also one could say that doctors have manipulated people undergoing surgery now into giving consent

socialism has been shown to be worse,

uh…

I got downvoted recently for saying “If you’re friends with someone, wouldn’t you want to know if they’re also friends with someone problematic?” and “I would definitely want to know if my friends were close with people who’d been in prison.”

Though to an extent, the lack of community, especially amongst children is due to the complete lack of independence and they have to depend on their parents to drive them everywhere.

where do you live that there’s not even a playground or a residential street within walking distance of your home?

Wish it’d be acceptable for people to call out reps/senators for “doing the bidding” of other countries too
