Stay up til 5, wake up at 1 for phone interview.

If I get another job my sleep schedule is going to be fucked to hell and back.

Those people are idiots.

Unless you dont live in America, then I can't comment on your commie workplaces.

I don't know... my uni was hard as fuck. More stressful than my current work for sure.

Could you elaborate? Like 15-18 hours + homework vs. 45+. I did Engineering then law school at fairly competitive schools, and it was more stressful for like 2 weeks every 6 months, but I find the incessant nonsense of real work.


Is that 15-18 hours per week? Obviously systems will differ a lot from the US to Germany and I'm probably as ignorant as possible on the American education system, but I'm having 30 hours in uni every week + homework (quite a bit).

Still sooo much more enjoyable than school, oh my god. I really didn't like the school system, learning pointless stuff to puke it onto your exam sheet and then forget about it.


Well normal workload is 15 credit hours. 1 credit hour *generally* equates into 1 hour of class/week. So with 15-18 credits you're doing 15-18 hours of class/week. Then hw and studying.

who says I'm not?

And there's not much to elaborate. Just that I thought my program was really hard and I was constantly under stress about assignments due the next week, for which there's a high chance I don't even know how to approach and get started. At work, I know the exact steps I need to take and the the difficulty of the tasks is easier. Although what I do now is far from the most hardcore and stressful thing out there.

Well, you did go to a hyper competitive institution. If you chose a job that is not top .1% in competitiveness its like apples and oranges. Its like if I went to work at the DMV stamping licenses, got drunk before work, then said "working is not stressful!"

Slightly sad. Made stew the other day, and my mom offered to make the rice while I went to shower. The rice was slightly mushy (not bad mushy, perfectly good and within the limits) but mixed with the stew it just didn't give the kind of texture which I was looking forward to. Also, the stew came out too sweet.
The day before tried using coconut milk for the first time making chicken, and which it had a pretty unique taste, the potatoes were a bit too cooked so when combined with the chicken, some of it fell apart a bit in what you'd expect from mashed potatoes.
Either way, cooking is fun. When I have more time, I'm going to start practicing cooking really small portions as test dishes to get some aspects down. Any pointers on a few good starting dishes for getting fundamentals?

I don't have a ton of work experience to compare to, but juggling undergrad+athletics was pretty stressful, and PT school has been at times ridiculous amounts of stress, with not much down time between those times. I'm sure there are jobs that rival the stress, but it can't possibly be anywhere near the majority of them.

Any Marvel/DC fans in here? Kinda got into that stuff with the marvel cinematic universe and now I kinda want to get into the DC universe and wanted to know which animated stuff from them is worth watching. I already watched Batman: Under the Redhood, The Darknight returns 1+2 & currently Justice League the FLashpoint Paradox. Was wondering if the old stuff like the Justice League/Avengers animated series is any good and what else?

Justice League Unlimited is definitely worth watching.

I'm kind of glad I didn't go to this ESGN thing now.

I'm already self conscious as fuck, and the cringe going on here is astronomical.

As somebody that's watched it since debut, it's a solid show. The acting can be stiff at times(looking at you, Oliver) but it brings more to the table than it's flaws detract.
