So in other words, your "boyfriend" has the 100 mile rule in effect.

You're just the woman he hangs out with when he's not hanging out with all the other women who are in other areas.

Hope you enjoy being used. Maybe when you're older and he discards you, you'll realize why it's foolish for multiple women to chase after the same guy.

He fucks her, or he will fuck her, because he knows you won't leave him even if you find out. He thinks of you as a comfy couch or a warm bed: great to come home to, but not the only place to kick off one's boots.

Frankly, I would do this to you as well, but I would be open about it. Would that be better for you?

Also, what is your first language?

Fuck move in with me id stay with you i wouldnt get bored of you.

Not really. Life goes on. At least you're getting one, be it this year or next. Most aren't lucky/diligent enough...top dicking around and buckle down, man!

See, the thing is that I'm studying in another country and keeping me here comes at some financial duress to my family.

So yeah, I either succeed or I don't even know what's gonna happen.

Was in your position a little while ago (almost exactly the same); now 20 years old (I actually just turned 20 an hour ago. Huh.) and living at home, having completed zero educational qualifications since leaving high school two years ago.

I'm not gonna lie, it's really shit and you seriously don't want to turn into me. However, fortunately, at least in my case, even so late in the game it is turn-around-able.

All Imma say is good luck, Anon.

>Hiring/firing decisions (like all decisions in Valve) are made by collective decision making of employees. GabeN is a parasite on the company that drains it's resources on him trying to lose weight or seem cool or whatever (reminds me of some of the admins here). He holds the company holds it back.
Please tell me English is not your first language.

While I know you're basing your entire knowledge of Valve off internet rumors and the Valve handbook, you have to understand something very fundamental... most video game companies, at least the ones that aren't run like EA (heretofore known as perpetual overtime hell stuffed with multiple managers for every employee who in turn get stuffed into featureless cubicles), are in fact run like Valve. They're built around teams. And, yes, teams are fluid, with people coming and going from teams all the time. Products are created by teams. There isn't something mystical and magical going on in Valve, it's just... normal. The only real difference is that Valve is larger.

But just because you have a lot of teams constantly in a state of flux doesn't mean there isn't a management structure built over those teams. Teams are really good at producing product, but not so good at mundane details like fixing a leaky roof in such a way that it meets local building codes, or that regulations regarding payroll, employee disclosure, financials (since Steam accepts credit card payments, they're subject to many financial regulations), or getting the best health care plan options, etc. are met and organized and presented.

You do peer reviews, you do performance evaluations, you do all this sundry bullshit that isn't really your job but you put up with it because it's the only way you can actually do your job, but... there's still someone in HR keeping track of your vacation days. There's still a legion of accountants making sure accounts receivable and accounts payable and everything else beancountery gets done - and done on time. Valve Time is nice and all, but nobody's going to accept that bullshit for why paychecks weren't deposited on schedule.

The employee handbook doesn't mention any of this because the handbook isn't for the grunts. The handbook is for programmers and artists and designers and all the other "productive" parts of a software company. There's not a single thing in there about firing because while those decisions are based off peer reviews and the like, the decision is made by management.

So please quiet your little pie hole about the evils of organizational structure and how your little one-man cocksucking operation is going to be the downfall of hierarchically run industries everywhere. You'll be out of business after all the corners you're cutting cause an accident that, if you're lucky, you'll survive from. Despite what mommy and daddy told you, you're not special.

sounds to me like a second-generation wetback hired to do the job of a professional for half the salary; probably got pissed off when the company went under anyway, leaving him and the rest of their uneducated, out-sourced rabble with dirt in their pockets because they never bothered to learn the language their contracts were written in.

Inversely, no one's going to be impregnating her crazy ass, so she will die off, and hopefully take a few other gullible idiots with her. We could stand to lose a few.

Considering you can't see his face in the top right panel, he could very well be continuing the same expression from the left panel. And she could have turned to face him from the upper left to upper right.

Purge the weak from the genepool. Scratch that she already had kids.

Don't worry, OP. You avoided a decade of misery, not being married to her and having to ay for her cost of living, raising her kids, and then finding out she was cheating on you the whole time with random guys she meets in bars, lying about nearly everything in her life, and running off with half your house and your life savings, & sending you a huge bill every month until the last kid turns 18.

Most suicides are unavoidable because a lot of people dont express their emotions to others even loved ones until its to late dont drag about her suicide but you can mourn her being gone.also dont think about the whole religious aspect its all fake.

Alternately, kill criminals known to escape from prison instead of just jailing them.

To edgy? French is to edgy to what!? I need to know! Where is French putting the edgy?

Or do you mean "too edgy"?

I promise to learn to spell someday.

OP, you dumb fuck; this is why people start in the mailroom and work their way up the ladder. Basically nobody starts at the top unless they were a CEO of a Fortune 500 already.

It's just like in my company. Even those seeking an eventual position in management still have to start at entry-level agent before getting anywhere. This is regardless of their previous experience.

Also, what they told you is obvious, and no, I'm sorry to say you did not "blow their socks off". Quite the contrary; what they said actually means "You're a really nice guy, but you suck and you would be useless to us."

So you went to college and didn't get any internships? And you thought this was a good idea... why?

Internships are where companies bring you on board expecting you to be a complete fucking idiot, but do it out of the goodness of their heart... plus the fact that they're not paying you means there's a chance that, on average, they'll actually break even... across all the work performed by all the interns.

Sorry you were a moron and thought some scrap of paper was going to get you something. Nobody is going to pay you to learn how to do the job they're paying you to do.

Fraid so. OP, in your grandparents time, people went to school to get trained for doing a specific job. When Clinton signed all those free-trade agreements that destroyed all those old American jobs, he very clearly explained that the old approach was outdated, and moving forward American workers will need to be more adaptive and creative than previously to stay ahead of the curve, and should expect 20-30 jobs in their lifetimes, not 1 or 2. Unfortunately, most parents are still of the old mindset, thinking of school as something you do primarily to increase your salary, so this is still how schools market and structure themselves. Unless you are pursuing one of a few careers, a doctor or engineer, you are better served in the new job market by the type of education that predates your grandparents. The "classical liberal" (not to be confused with politically liberal) education exposes you to a broader, more well-rounded balance of subjects to make you a more widely capable and adaptable person.

However, none of this amounts to anything if you don't have any real world experience. You get it by working a shit-tier position and if you're really lucky, move up from there, but more realistically, by saving your $, starting up or partnering up in your own venture, and learning the hard way for a while first. Then you can demonstrate your ambition & brightness, but by then you likely won't want to work for someone else's corp, because compared to your own gig on the worst day, the best day at a corporate job just fucking blows.

Otherwise you're indistinguishable from all the children who mindlessly went to college "just because", and who do not ever, ever knock HR Directors socks off with cute stories of what they did as schoolchildren. Not ever.
