LPT Quit Instagram.You will realize that you wont give any more fucks about what others think about you.

I've never used Instagram but I remember checking it out a couple years ago and going down this weird rabbit hole. Someone posted a really good healthy recipe and linked their Instagram account so I decided to check it out. It was dedicated to healthy eating and weight loss, the person posted a selfie every two days. Occasionally there would be a progress pic but the before picture looked like she was in middle school. Not really much recipe wise but I thought if I posted a selfie every other day for two years and never lost weight I'd be horrified so I checked out a couple profiles of whos liking it.

One was the same thing, selfies every other day, her progress pic before picture was 9 months pregnant with twins like 8 years ago. The best one was this girl whos before pic had the date on it with some power point font but as you scrolled down it was clear she used the same before pic for years but always changed the date on it acting like it was current. She was trying to sell some MLM shit.

Anyway, long story short I never went back, the amount of narcissism needed to act like that completely floored me. I feel like if any of those women actually lost weight everyone there would probably turn on them to be honest. I don't see how people find comfort in those kind of communities, like I said, if I acted like that I would be absolutely horrified.

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.
