  • How can I cope living with inconsiderate, thick headed, ignorant family members?

    I am living with them, its not so much my parents. But rather dumb ***, intrusive siblings.

    I love em all, if they were in buring building, I'd go in to rescue them. No problem..

    But I can't stand their intrusive, absolute dumb fu** arrogant prying and busybodying with me life.

    How can I get through this? I am obligated to help my mum and dad out for at least another 5 years. With money and stuff, but how can I get through living with bullying, narcissistic people around me. Yes they are related, but that doesn't't change the fact that they the most unhelpful, stupid fund I have ever come across.

    Please will you give me your best advice.

    Thanks. :)

  • is this a good way to commit suicide? (serious)?

    I wish to die, and I have a mess free plan.

    I want to step in a boat,

    By myself.

    Take some rope, 50 kg weight. Like stone or sandbag.

    Sail to a deep part of the ocean near me. I.e. Mariana Trench (deepest place in the ocean)..

    I want to then tie up the rope around my neck, because I don't want my body to go back up.

    Throw the sand bag down. Lean myself over the boat. Load my handgun. Let go.

    Bullet to the head. So I don't have to suffer drowning.

    My body gets dragged down. Then in a matter of under two months my body would have been eaten by bottom dwellers in the ocean floor. Fish and worms. Etc. Leaving no trace but just bones.

    Job done. Zero mess. No money. No grave stone to worry about. No funeral costs.

    What do you think?

  • How much thrust is needed to lift 1kg off the ground and keep it in the air?

    Think of helicopters.

    How much force or downwards thrust is needed to lift one kilo off the ground?

    For example say I gave you a watermelon which weighed 1kg..

    And then let's say I add a small electric rotar, attached to the melon.

    How much power, lift, thrust or whatever it is called. Is needed to lift that 1 kg water melon off the ground and able to fly?

  • Am I allowed to give a 1 week notice to my boss, before I resign? Please share your advice? :)?

    Do you think its wrong of me to quit my job?

    Basically I have been working as a Kitchen Porter, for 3 months so far. And I am a very hard worker, I do my job as good as possible.

    But here is my issues.

    - I cant save money. Because pay is low. 200£ a month on fuel.. and 85 a month on parking.

    - My skin on my face regularley gets spots of white patches, due to handling bleach ever time.

    - I get cut every single day, because of the speed I have to work at. Moving heavy trays, using steel scrubers. Scrubbing hard to reach places.

    - the chefs sometimes make me clean up after their mess, e.g. if h coffee or cake on the floor, they ask me to clean up their spills. They yell at me for no reason. Send me to the shops several times a day, to get the stuff they forgot to order. I twist my ankle all the time, because they tell you to run instead of walk fast.

    Thank you..

    Can you please tell me what you think I should do?

    Ps. i have another job lined up already.

    Ps. I havent signed a job contract.

  • Why doesn't my boss like me or understand me?

    I work in a kitchen, as a kitchen porter - my job is all very physical, which I love and enjoy. I do all what others consider "sh*t jobs"... Running to shops, emptying bins, picking herbs, Working with smelly meats like fish and pork.

    I am only working there until April 27th 2015. So 9 more months left.

    Basically I am the kind of person who is very knit picky, and a bit of an OCD worker. I only work because I enjoy it and I like doing a good job, to please myself.. i like doing the best job possible, because I've been told I am an idiot by parents and teachers at school when I was a kid.. so I like overworking and putting in 100% to prove to myself that I can work with principel.

    I even offered to work for free, for about about half an hour. At the end of my shift. Because I have no friends nor do I care about social life. All I care about is work, and saving for future.

    I don't have an off switch. If all my boss cares about is budget.. then what is her problem when I personally and purely for my own pleasure work for free to keep my mind occupied. (OCD) I love my job, and I feel happy when I do a good job, why can't they understand that?

    Its not like I am losing them money, or hurting anyone? I am not losing money myself nor am I losing petrol. I am just using my god given time to do something I enjoy and work at.

    What is their problem with me? I am sorry that I don't have a certain disdain for work and the world...

    But this is me.

    Can you tell me what I shuld do

  • I need your Opinion: Do you think I should buy this electric guitar?

    http://www.brightonguitars.co.uk/new-guitars/new-e...

    I played it today at the store, and to me its sounded and felt great..

    I played the opening riff of Helter Skelter by the Beatles with high distortion. And it really did well.. I thought it sounded great... What do you think? Of it?

    It is a cheap guitar, but it felt great to play... But the strings seemed exteremly sensitive to any touch.

    Cause at the end of the day, if you don't have money you're in trouble. Like real actual, trouble. You'll be evicted, broke, homeless, jobless, no food, water or shelter.

  • How do I work with an impatient boss?

    I work a minimum wage job as a bus boy in a kitchen... the the head chef - who is a nice person at heart, but I find her to be extremly unapproachble. I always bust my *** trying to keep up and trying to do my job as good and as efficeintly as possible. And I do succeed.

    But when it comes to making mistakes and simple errors. I have an incredibly tough time asking the head chef to repeat herself. Because she says

    "Don't f**king make me repeat things, but listen to me when I speak"..

    Thats fair enough and its very understandible that she would say that. but she says thing so fast, and sometimes uses words that don't seem to make sense at all. Well at least thats how I feel.

    I just cannot approach her calmly, because you can anticipate the frustration and sense of bother when she yells at you for asking even a simple and reasonable question. I've got bad enough anxiety and social conduct issues, cause of past bullying, and low morale. And I am nervous and shy when I need to talk to women. no matter what the context.

    I got called a "suck up" by her because I offered to do extra work. When I made a mistake in the kitchen... I mean what would I gain from sucking up to a boss at a minimum wage job? A promtion? A raise? I don't think so

    What do you suggest I should do?

    For the moment I am sticking with my gut instinct and shutting my mouth and turning up at work and doing my job well. How do I gain confidence to talk to an impatient and agressive boss?

  • Poll: Will you help me choose what Electric Guitar to buy?

    My budget is £500.

    My favourite music includes:

    The Beatles.

    Rolling Stones.

    Jimi Hendrix.

    Bob Dylan

    U2

    Coldplay

    Two Door Cinema Club

    And in general I listen to Funk guitar and Jazz music.

    I want a guitar that has a comfortable neck shape, a good balance between quality and tone. And also something that will offer me versatility.

    I love the beefy and thick rock n roll sounds of a gibson. "Like the song Helter Skelter. But I also enjoy playing high notes, and personal and sweet songs such as from coldplay or mozart.

    I was thinking I want to either purchase.

    the Revelation RTS62 - £159.. which is cheap, but the shop owner said they were good starting guitars. But they aren't amazing or dazziling, it gets the job done.

    Or the Fender Mexican Stratocaster: £500..more expensive, and possibly better quality?

    I like the bright sounds of maple fretboard, but I love the heavy rock n roll sounds of rosewood. I don't know which to go for tbf.

    Thank You for your help. :)

  • Is music a reflection of reality or is it our wishful thinking incarnate?

    You know music from beethoven and mozart, or even artists todays like john williams, hans zimmer.

    Or pop and rock muscians.

    Welly question is this:

    Is the music they make a reflection of the reality that they are experiencing in life? Or is it rather a reflection of their desire to escape the mudane parts of life?...

    I can't be more clear, because its hard for me to explain.

  • Poll: How much money would I have to save up in order to move away from my family?

    (In the UK, SE England)..

    Before you read on, I want to make it clear that I am not looking for people who want to judge me and say "you're stupid, what kind of a life is that?"..

    Please.. I know where my heart is, and I am fully aware of the outcomes of my decisions.

    Thanks. :)

    ---------:-----

    I currently work a full time job and I also have £2000 in savings.

    I want to move away from my family, because its just far too much dysfunction and drama for my liking. I cannot stand being around them.

    I would like to know how much money I would need to save up in order to rent a very cheap studio flat. Can you give me a rough esitimate on how much money I need to get moving.

    And my food budget is quite low, but its enough and just right for me..

    I'll be able to buy ith a months supply of food for just a £50 .. the meals will only consist of rice. And I have no problem at all with that. Its cheap.

    £25 for 20kg of rice.

    The remainder £25 for spicy pickles, and seasoning. I know its boring, but I've beeen eating it almost my entire life, everyday.

    So most of my money will go towards rent and bills and council tax.

    And for transport, I will be cycling, or walking. No car for me. Or if its absolutley nessesary, I'll just use public transport to get to work.

    What do you think? Can you give me any advice? Any words of advice?
