Trust your manager and the people who hired you. They picked your for a reason. Sometimes it’s not what you think makes a good employee in this position, but something much more specific to the team or situation you’re in. If in doubt: Ask!

Many times people who come straight from uni don’t feel productive enough, because they can’t be productive for 8 hours straight. But that’s normal. Staring at the ceiling blankly on occasion is normal too. If you’re doing your best and the matter you’re working with is working well for you, then you’re very likely fine.

There’s always a bit of impostor syndrome in all of us, but still try to get comfortable and trust your colleagues. Ask for feedback from your superior, if you’re unsure.

This decision is all about you.

I’m an introvert who works with people, I could be a recluse all year and I’d be happy. Without work maybe I’d be a little lonely at times, but there is ways to fix that for me, without relying on neighbours.

You seem to like having neighbours though, so that’s very different. If that is something that worked well for you in the past, I think that’s an indicator for the more expensive house. It’s a permanent thing, after all, and if you’re rather extroverted or at least need humans around on occasion, then you shouldn’t make yourself unhappy by buying cheap.

Tragically we’re a little too small for “kitting”, I believe, but this perfectly fits the bill!

You learn French, they learn English, you meet in the middle. I think that’s probably how that was meant to work. Sounds fair to me.

You seem to lack the ability to change perspective here: You learn a language and so do they. You just seem to be missing the fact that the other side is doing the exact same thing?

I never knew there was this much drama about the French language in Canada. Really interesting fact on its own.

Bumble friend search, you don’t have to look romantically. Meetup works too, though not quite as well for me, since not everyone with a common interest wants a new close friend.

We’re out there and depending on where you are there’s quite a lot of us in your shoes and many also don’t really know how to go about this business.

Agreed, started with a Pixel 3 refurb. Just don’t thik this applies to Samsung too. Pixel just doesn’t have the bloatware stuff and that really does get in the way with other phones when it gets older. For my partner it’s similar experience with refurbished Apple phones though.

6 year old me was unhappy enough without a plethora of knowledge and absolutely nothing to do with that.

I’ll have the money please, I got some ideas to make 6 year olds less unhappy.

For the statistics: 40s, successful, no family.
