Good point. What if you work for a corporate shithole that doesn't do raises or annual reviews?

You should look at your salary as well as other benefits in the marketplace and assess whether you are at a place you want to be long term. Everyone, all the way to the CEO can be replaced. You have little strong arm leverage.

I work as an entry level security guard. I am very replaceable, honestly a monkey could do this job, but the company does have a hard time finding employees that last longer than 3 months. I've been here for a year as of December 1st. Sorry if I made it sound like I'm some big corporate guy with a nice resume lmao.

Do you ask for raises at all? Or do you not ask for anything at all at your job?

I work for a big corporate juggernaut, so they don't really listen to raise requests outside of yearly performance reviews/promotion time. So during those times I just document all the shit I've done throughout the year that makes me a good employee/deserving of a raise.

However when I worked for smaller local employers you bet I asked for raises whenever I got a new certification or when I was outperforming my peers and could demonstrate it.

Not to put you on blast but, CE, do you agree with this?

I do, largely. Often your current employer just cannot match what you're asking for. I've also seen it create a weird rift because your current employer/manager doesn't trust you and think you're just going to leave (which is stupid as fuck, but I've seen it multiple times.)

However, if you actually want to stay and are just using this a leverage, I still think it's worth it to try.

Using a higher offer from somewhere else as leverage to get ahead at your current job rarely ever works out. Just put in your notice and be done with it.

If I had a higher paying job lined up, how do I talk to my boss about either a raise or promotion?

What I think I should do is say "I've been a good employee, I would like a raise promotion", but if they don't comply, I will immediately put in my 2 week notice.

Is this the right way? or should I wait a day or two before I put in my two week notice.

But in my opinion, I don't have a problem

In a way you just admitted your problem. Nobody is perfect, we all have some sort of imperfections or problems. You being completely unopen to the idea that maybe you might have to admit you have a problem is a problem in itself.

did I admit I have a problem? explain lol

I've made a few topics here and there about incel related things. Never really did specifically about therapy though.

Well, what do you define as brainwashing tbh >_>

and American way? like what, why would you ever want specifically an American mindset?

Fair question. I basically want a therapist to convince me of something I know it isn't true. Maybe that isn't possible? Going back to the "sky is blue" example, I want a therapist to convince me that the sky is red, because I have to get along in a society where everyone believes that.

Why do you assume you know the "truth" and the rest of us dont?

Not to sound cocky but that is just what I've investigated over the years. I think others either don't know the truth or they refuse to believe it because of the standards that society has on them.

I bought my first car about a week ago. And for the record, I did buy it used. But I'm second-guessing my decision, because I've never heard of anyone keeping a used car for longer than two years. No joke.

What I'm saying is:

Those who bought a used car. How many times have you had to take it to a shop or fix a problem yourself? Think about that for a second. Used cars cost a shit ton to even just have in your possession. with a used car you're not going to be going to the shop at all except for inspection.

Have you ever owned a car before ? All cars will have issues at one point or another

It's called financing. No one buys a car outright, they finance it over a couple years

And if they still don't want to spend that much money?

I bought my Rogue used with about 2000 miles on it. It'll be paid off next year and aside from a fender bender, it's in good shape.

Well you're kind of spending that money anyway, with the constant auto repair shop visits when shit breaks

You sound like you're not in a mindstate to accept legitimate help. But if you have insurance it wouldn't hurt to try.

Therapy only works if you're open minded tho. If you're a know-it-all, it just slides right off.

Could I pretend? Think about it this way: I think the sky is blue, but everyone in the world thinks the sky is really red. I'm trying to go to therapy so that the counselor can convince me once and for all that the sky is truly red, so I can get along with my peers.

I'm in a pickle boys

I have a bit of an incel mindset. I don't want to elaborate because I don't want to start a thing here. But my point is I want to check myself into counseling so that I can change my ways.

Make no mistake, I don't think I have a problem. I think my thoughts are very justified, and I believe I am correct about how the world works. I want to see a therapist so that I can be tricked into believing the "correct" and American way so that I can belong in a normal society.

Part of therapy is you're supposed to admit that you have a problem. But in my opinion, I don't have a problem. I just want someone to brainwash me into having a different opinion so that I can get along with society.

Do you know what I mean? Is that something that you doable in therapy?

Seems like it's nonsensical to do so. And you're lucky to get two years out of that, then you're stuck buying another one.

With a new car it is guaranteed to last much longer. You have to pay more for insurance, but that is much cheaper than having to buy a car every two years.

Most people do. You should get over it. Are you going bald?

Shaving your head does not make you bald, you still have hair in those spots, it is just shorter. people can still see that. People can still see the 5:00 shadows, you may think you're fooling people but you're not. You're trying to hide your baldness

seems like it's insecure to shave your head, because you're trying to make it look like your baldness is a choice, when really you're covering up your hair loss

The saturated fat and sodium level in those are really bad for you if you eat up to 4 routinely.

Like the other person said, eat one. Add other food groups to it to make it more "mealy" or just have it as a snack.

4 hot pockets and nothing else is just...gross. You're better then that.
