LPT: Don't announce a death on the internet unless you are 100% sure all family members & close friends have been told in person, or at-least on the phone

Our family just experienced this, and I have to say it is extremely distasteful and awful. My aunt passed away a month ago from cancer, started as lung cancer and just spread like wild fire. She was 47 and I was very close to her, she was like a mother to me. I was at work when she passed and my cousins bitch of a girlfriend that never got along with my aunt jumped directly on Facebook before my aunts body was even removed from her home asking for thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I go to lunch and open Facebook up (no missed calls or texts mind you) and this is the first post I see with a rediculous amount of likes and tons of comments. I just sat there stunned. The woman that took me in and was more of a mother to me than my own has just died and I got to hear about it from a bitch that couldn't stand her and she's now asking for sympathy!? Then my phone rings and it's my uncle who is just an absolute mess trying to explain to me what had happened and I told him that I already knew. He couldn't understand how I knew as the crew from the funeral home had literally just pulled out of the driveway...

TL;DR a bitch looking for Facebook likes and sympathy announced my aunts death to the world before her body was even cold. Seriously, fuck social media scabs.

LPT: Take a few days to familiarize yourself with a spreadsheet app (e.g., MS Excel, Google Sheets). The uses are endless for school, the office, life, and other people will think you're a wizard. LPT: If you find a faster way to do something at your work, keep it a secret from your manager. LPT: Always remember; no reaction IS a reactiom. LPT: If a job won’t tell you the wage before the interview, leave. If they don’t tell you, then it’s not a wage you’d be able to take. And they know it. They want you to invest all your time and energy interviewing so when they lowball you, you fall victim to the fallacy of sunk costs. LPT Request: Is there a way to become warm and bubbly person? LPT: Check on your friends who just had a baby. Ask if they need company, or anything, really. Keep calling them to social events, even if they are unable to attend for a good few months. Their routine has abruptly changed, hence most "friends" just vanish. LPT request: how to get up in the right time? LPT: Get a Prenup. It is far easier to decide how materials and custody should be divided while both parties are on good terms. It'll save you both a lot of time and money. LPT: One of the biggest mistakes you could make when trying to climb any company’s ladder is believing that your skill, talent, and work ethic will be noticed and rewarded. More often than not, the only thing holding you back is keeping your mouth shut.
