Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of November! 
We are in the middle of November. It’s a good time to remind ourselves of our goals for this month.
Some discussion ideas:
+ How was your week?
+ How is your November going so far?
+ Do you have some plans for next week?
Poster caption
“Greetings to the world’s largest Dnieprostroi Hydroelectric Station that has started operating. Long live the most productive workers of socialist construction! DGES (Hydroelectric Station Of Dnieper-Petrovsk).”
This poster is oversized. The Dnieprostroi Hydroelectric Station was built on the Dnieper River, the third largest river in Europe. Soviet architects designed the dam and its buildings while a U.S. team assisted with the engineering. When completed in 1932, the dam was the biggest in the world and it was a tremendous achievement for the First Five-Year Plan and for the Soviet Union.

Couple things I can add this week:
-
I successfully replaced and upgraded some PC parts. I really enjoyed the vibe I had going. Hoodie, jeans, and screwdriver working on my PC
-
I bench 200 for reps now.
-
“studying” for this out of state interview. Made sure to also apply for a shitty barista position that’s nearby. I’m sick of unemployment and if that’s where I am, that’s where I am.
-
Still trying to use linkedin to N*twork with people at the place. While the pay sucks, the important part is I stop being a basement dweller and begin to meet my obligations as an adult. I’ll be a lot less judged, not have to worry about “you suck and here’s why” speeches.
-
I also worked up the courage to email random professors about grad programs I might be interested in: what kind of person thrives in these roles, what does the job market realistically look like, if I am likely better off doing a second undergrad etc etc. Literally trying to defeat the “nothing ever happens” chudjak in my head.
Sounds like you’re making great progress! Keep it up
-
I’m back at it for my online training and personal reading journey. Finished a book in like 2 seatings and I feel like I get all the components of a traditional ac unit feels good
