StinkyPinky, to AskKbin in What kind of toothpaste squeezer are you?

I do it the right way. Push from the seal towards the opening until there are only like two brush-worths left, then I fold the sides by the opening to get those last drops.

Hell yeah! Don't ever give it up. One of my favorite people I have worked for told me, when I was failing miserably at a management position I got shoved into, that we learn far more from our failures than our successes. As long as your learn something, the time is not wasted.

Even if it takes you 69,420 more attempts, the time will continue to pass either way. Once you cross that finish line, the struggles will be but a distant memory. You will be glad that you stuck with it. Good luck with your classes! Keep that head held high :)

That's excellent! It's amazing how much of a change being happy at work can make. Having that passion definitely makes it feel like you aren't even working.

Hope your holidays rock man.

I work in IT for the government currently. There is definitely a massive shortage for government and contractor IT positions nationwide (USA). If you are near any military installments, check them out! last I looked, I think there were like 19,000 IT related job postings. Good luck out there!

That's not bad at all. At 35, I have only recently started looking to the future for where I want to be. I have always just been a day by day person. Life just seems easier that way, fewer let downs, more surprises. Hope things stay good for you!

Good luck! What are you looking to do in IT? I'm currently working enterprise infrastructure which is just fancy talk for I click on things in servers until the do what I want.

You are a braver person than I am. For being such an invaluable career, teachers do not make nearly enough. Props for moving back into education though.

Me? Man, you are the first one to ask me that. I got a promotion at work that came with a 20% raise, but it's going to take a while before I see it. I recently consolidated all of my debt and will be completely debt free in three years or earlier. But I guess most of all, I am going to be ordering some more sunglasses soon and I'm pretty stoked to try them out. It's the little things, you know?

Well don't underestimate the soothing power of a guitar and singing to lull a sleepless child. Unless you only play death metal. It could still work though...

If you are comfortable, shoot me a link! I'd love to check it out. I don't often have time to sit and watch, but it would be cool to check it out. Good luck!

Congratulations! it's a fun ride, filled with ups and downs and sidewayses. Just always give 100% even if your partner can't and remember to communicate. Take in and enjoy every moment because it goes by so fast. Good luck to you guys!

Also, Josh is an excellent prospective name for a future child. No reason for my partiality in particular.

I, too, am lined up for a promotion soon! It's already been approved, but may still take a month or two before I see it. The speed of the government.

What is your career field?

Yeah I really like the environment so far. It's growing quite fast and it has me a little nervous. But reddit has just lost all that made it so great before. I just find myself mindlessly scrolling through shit posts trying to find something that interests me, only to see the comment section full of elementary humor and repetitive dead horse jokes. They have their place, I guess, but not in every single comment section.

That's awesome! Any fancy plan for the proposal?

What are you planning to do with the degree? IT is my trade but not as a developer. I just fix the computers and maintain the server infrastructure.

Yeah absolutely. I think it's just human nature to focus so wholly on the goal, that we disregard the journey. Diets can be extremely challenging because you can't just quit cold turkey. It's a journey of learning new eating habits and shopping habits, learning to cook better, understanding ingredients and how nutrition effects your body.

I'm really good about exercising and working out. Starting to get kinda jacked again even. But my diet has just never been there. I eat more junk food than I should, but I also eat a lot of healthy stuff. Not a picky eater at all. I just really like cheetos lol.

I did have a six pack at one point, I was quite happy with my body. But it just wasn't sustainable because I like cheeseburgers too much. I had to find the balance of looking how I want, having a positive opinion of my self, and enjoying the food that I like without over eating, but not cutting out those easy serotonin booster snacks. I envy those that can do it without having to put that much thought into it.

I'm 6"2' and about 220 now, slowly working my gut down and pretty happy with myself overall, but I did consume a lot of doritos about an hour ago. Oh well, I'll go the gym tomorrow morning and try to stay on track after.

Good luck on your journey!
