the thread about nothing...

That's great advice from the vet. Yup 💯 it's the young & new phase so we got taken advantage of, no one there to coach us beforehand. Give your life for an employer & all you get is a boquet on your casket & ty & with the quickness you're replaced- f that.
true enough. that's why whenever we have young guns at work, I always tell them to follow my lead. what to do and not what to do. of course we also meet some stubborn bunch that they think they know better but ended up getting in a world of trouble for not listening.

we had a supervisor at work which I really like. too bad she made the mistake of listening to the wrong person that got her in trouble and put a target on her back. now she's gone and the bad influence is now on close scrutiny as she is now a target as well. that bad influence was ignored before with her mistakes but because of what happened and what she did, everyone is now gunning for her head on a platter. at work, choose your friends and know your enemies.

further more, it's tough working in an industry where it is dominated by women. too much drama.

My older bro is basically a total stranger to me now and it’s a really awkward feeling whenever I’m around him. It’s not like we had a falling out. He just got busy with his life and family so we’ve barely talked to each over the years. It feels like he’s a completely different person who I share nothing in common with.

What is you guys age difference? Have a younger brother in hs and feel it can be hard to connect w him sometimes just cuz we are in different points in our lives but its all love and he's into sneakers also so have that to talk w him about

tell me about it. I have the same situation with my 2nd older brother. it feels like we have a falling out but the thing is, he seems not to care much about relationship other than his family and his new acquaintances. it's not just an awkward feeling but more like an insult considering we are family and he treats other people more important than his own brother.
I resigned to the fact that let him be his own man. he's still my family eventhough we are not close nor want to engage with each other's business anymore. we maybe close in terms of location, but our relationship is like from a distant star. I have a much better relationship with my oldest brother, now that guy I was hoping that was close to me in my present location than the other one.

atleast you guys are communicating. my brother doesn't even call to ask how we are doing.

We’re three years apart. I was much closer to my younger brother growing up. We still talk to each other almost every day and hang out fairly often, but with my older brother it seems like he has absolutely no interest
 
Is the hype from The Last Dance still in effect? Did it actually benefit me 2 years after it aired? I finally sold the 2008 Countdown Pack Jordan XI earlier this week for $610! They were sold on GOAT on Memorial Day. I finally had a taker after having them listed on there since last fall. Good thing I never wavered with my initial listed price. And it's a good thing I never wore them.

Despite being happy to unload this crap for an exorbitant price, I'm still pissed off about get jacked and pimped with fees from the sale. :emoji_angry:🙄

It's still hard to simultaneously fathom that someone would overpay for shoes that are over 13 years old and that I would be able to get way more than what I paid for that pack. I paid retail for them in December 2008.

These were easy for me to get thanks to a former cool associate of mine who used to be the store manager at Footaction. He was so cool to let me give him the cash before the release date so that he could purchase them for me on release day and all I had to do was pick them up later that day. If you didn't have connections with a shoe store employee, then you had to do work to get these.

I'll always be grateful and thankful with that cool as hell dude for helping me out with these back in December 2008 even though we don't deal with each other anymore.

I already sold the XII from this pack on GOAT last fall for $525 before getting jacked with fees. That was actually my first sale ever on that platform.

It's a damn good thing I didn't resell these to a secondhand shoe store because they sure as hell would have came at me with an exorbitantly lower price than what I got on GOAT.

These pictures are the last moments of them in my possession before I shipped them out on Tuesday.

I usually don't post personal things on here, but my girlfriend is breaking up with me because I'm not the affectionate type and she is the lovie dovie type. She is the best person I know, but I guess we weren't compatible in the ways more important to her. My best advice to people is to constantly communicate with your significant other and if you find things that you don't see as "fixable", than break it off for both of your sakes. This situation sucks.:frown:

it does and issues/complaints should be addressed as well. I myself needed attention and there are times my significant other is not just interested in me. I'm close to being in the bind considering my hot former co-worker pays more attention to me than the wife. sometimes I just act up just to let the wife pay some attention. but with such temptation, it does make it more difficult.
