"It doesn't hurt, get over it."Context: I have Sensory Processing Disorder, meaning my brain cannot accept and organize sensory information properly. The senses you use every moment to understand where you are, what you're feeling, whether or not you're injured are unreliable for me. I was born with it, I live my whole life with it, I will most likely die with it.When diagnosed, back in 2002 while I was in grade 4, little was known about SPD. It was believed to only truly be found in Autism and anyone outside of that spectrum who showed sensory issues had minor delays they simply needed to grow out of. And that's what my parents were told. That I would soon grow out of it and all would be right in the world.Cue the next 12 years of me struggling to understand the issues of my body. When you're told you're normal, but you realize that everyone else isn't going through the same thing as you, it creates a very meased up idea that you are somehow... bad. You're intentionally being this brat that can't understand where your limbs are or freaks out at mushrooms or does the same sound over and over again in your mouth because it feels good. Because I had no label, no understanding, I simply thought I was the worst goddamn human on the planet. Bin Laden was horrendous but at least he didn't vomit on the new floor when finally wearing those socks him mom bought him as a present.Yep.I did that.Christmas Day.Because the fabric was one I could not stand and it caused me that much pain and discomfort.Now, back to the phrase. As I said earlier, SPD buggers up how I experience pain. Velvet is a totrue tool that shold be banned world wide. And in my brain, touching velvet hurts worse than breaking a bone.When I was told over and over to "get over" my sensory issues because the weren't a big deal, I began to rationalize that anything less painful then my sensory issues was obviously not a big deal. If Tomato soup was something I needed to stomach through, then so was PCOS. If an overwhelming shopping mall was something to be happy about, then broken rubs were simply something to laugh at.I'm not exaggerating. I'very broken multiple rubs and I don't know from what. I've mashed my pinkie toes, because I'm unaware of where my legs are going, to the point where they now curl in under my feet.I don't blame my parents. Honestly. They were trusting professionals who didn't really know enough. It's no one's fault. But now I'm older and have the history to look at kids like me and give advice. Look at families like mine and prep them for what happens next. Hopefully a few can learn from my mistakes.I explain sensory pain and all that jazz better here

Departments of education and school districts always have to make decisions about what to include in their curriculum.  There are a lot of life skills that people need that aren't taught in school.  The question is should those skills be taught in schools?I teach high school, so I'll talk about that.  The typical high school curriculum is supposed to give students a broad-based education that prepares them to be citizens in a democracy and to be able to think critically.  For a democracy to work, we need educated, discerning citizens with the ability to make good decisions based on evidence and objective thought.  In theory, people who are well informed about history, culture, science, mathematics, etc., and are capable of critical, unbiased thinking, will have the tools to participate in a democracy and make good decisions for themselves and for society at large.  In addition to that, they should be learning how to be learners, how to do effective, basic research, and collaborate with other people.  If that happens, figuring out how to do procedural tasks in real life should not provide much of a challenge.  We can't possibly teach every necessary life skill people need, but we can help students become better at knowing how to acquire the skills they need.  Should we teach them how to change a tire when they can easily consult a book or search the internet to find step by step instructions for that?  Should we teach them how to balance a check book or teach them how to think mathematically and make sense of problems so that the simple task of balancing a check book (which requires simple arithmetic and the ability to enter numbers and words in columns and rows in obvious ways) is easy for them to figure out.  If we teach them to be good at critical thinking and have some problem solving skills they will be able to apply those overarching skills to all sorts of every day tasks that shouldn't be difficult for someone with decent cognitive ability  to figure out.  It's analogous to asking why a culinary school didn't teach its students the steps and ingredients to a specific recipe.  The school taught them about more general food preparation and food science skills so that they can figure out how to make a lot of specific recipes without much trouble.  They're also able to create their own recipes.So, do we want citizens with very specific skill sets that they need to get through day to day life or do we want citizens with critical thinking, problem solving, and other overarching cognitive skills that will allow them to easily acquire ANY simple, procedural skill they may come to need at any point in their lives?

My condolences.  One thing that I've mentioned a lot on this board is that I am extremely skeptical of a masters in quant finance, and your story is typical.First thing, find the school that gave you the degree, and scream at them.  Find people that you graduated with and collectively scream at the school that gave you the degree.  Having taken your tuition money they have a moral responsibility to get you a job.  You should be furious at the school, and let them know how furious you are.Second, if you are interested in a CS Ph.D. that is a very good choice.  The good thing about a Ph.D. is that you can get one without incurring new debt, and it will help you a lot getting computer positions.  Also work experience in a computer company outside of finance is also very useful.The jobs that you are being steered toward are not what you were promised.  One problem with the term "quant" is that it started getting applied to all sorts of jobs in finance that have nothing to with with quantitative analysis.  The financial crisis basically *killed* any demand for vaiuation of exotic options.  The jobs that exist now are basically pure C++ programming jobs, or essentially filling out forms for government regulators.One rule of thumb is that if you are interviewing for a quant job, and you are talking to an MBA, then it really isn't a quant job.  They are looking for someone to type in numbers into Excel spreadsheets.The other thing is that location is an issue.  There are essentially no entry level quant positions outside of New York City.  If you are in Chicago, there is basically only one employer that hires entry level quants (Citadel).  In Dallas, there is also basically one set of employers that hires entry level quants (HBK and spinoffs).  You might considering contacting some headhunters in NYC before doing a CS Ph.D. to see if that will work.I wish you luck, and you can send me private e-mail if you can think of something I might be able to help you with.

NOOOOOOO. You are talking to a military romance scammer. I received an email from the US Army that directly answers your question that is pasted below please keep reading.I believe you are the victim of a military Romance Scam whereas the person you are talking to is a foreign national posing as an American Soldier claiming to be stationed overseas on a peacekeeping mission. That's the key to the scam they always claim to be on a peacekeeping mission.Part of their scam is saying that they have no access to their money that their mission is highly dangerous.If your boyfriend girlfriend/future husband/wife is asking you to do the following or has exhibited this behavior, it is a most likely a scam:Moves to private messaging site immediately after meeting you on Facebook or SnapChat or Instagram or some dating or social media site. Often times they delete the site you met them on right after they asked you to move to a more private messaging siteProfesses love to you very quickly & seems to quote poems and song lyrics along with using their own sort of broken language, as they profess their love and devotion quickly. They also showed concern for your health and love for your family.Promises marriage as soon as he/she gets to state for leave that they asked you to pay for.They Requests money (wire transfers) and Amazon, iTune ,Verizon, etc gift cards, for medicine, religious practices, and leaves to come home, internet access, complete job assignments, help sick friend, get him out of trouble, or anything that sounds fishy.The military does provide all the soldier needs including food medical Care and transportation for leave. Trust me, I lived it, you are probably being scammed. I am just trying to show you examples that you are most likely being connned.Below is an email response I received after I sent an inquiry to the US government when I discovered I was scammed. I received this wonderful response back with lots of useful links on how to find and report your scammer. And how to learn more about Romance Scams.Right now you can also copy the picture he gave you and do a google image search and you will hopefully see the pictures of the real person he is impersonating. this doesn't always work and take some digging. if you find the real person you can direct message them and alert them that their image is being used for scamming.Good Luck to you and I'm sorry this may be happening to you. please continue reading the government response I received below it's very informative.   You have contacted an email that is monitored by the U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Command.

I wish that everyone, both liberal and conservative, was able to understand what “unintended consequences” are.10 Fascinating Examples of Unintended Consequences - Toptenz.netLiberals often think that if the INTENT of a policy is NICE, then the OUTCOME of the policy will be NICE.Liberals are NICE. Their NICE eyeballs look out onto the world a see a place where we should all be NICE.But being NICE often has negative consequences.Like letting a child molester or a rapist out of prison is NICE because we want to believe that everyone has some good in them. We want to feel that the person can be rehabilitated.But in reality, 92% of violent criminals will commit the same violent crimes when released from prison.So letting criminals out of jail after a few years is NICE and is also EVIL.Another big delusion is that a politician must have STRONG support to be elected.Sometimes politicians get elected because the opposition got bored and stayed home.America is a nation of centrists, that's why we have close elections. They shrug their shoulders and vote for whoever they sort of like better.Trump can get re-elected even if not one single person in the USA likes him. We have a binary party system, so if the voters dislike Trump less than they dislike Hillary (or whoever), then he'll be re-elected.In a binary political system, a politician is turned either on or off by the voters, like a light switch. Whether the individual voter adores him or hates him but hates Hillary more, the pro-Trump vote counts the same.In the last election, the greatest number of voters voted to stay home and watch Dancing with the Stars on TV. 42% of the eligible voters voted for Dancing With The Stars, 26% voted for Trump and Hillary each. In a pure democracy, the cast of Dancing With The Stars would be president.That's what makes Trump Derangement Syndrome so hilarious. After the election, everyone twirled about in confusion and "realized" that their neighbor Timmy who voted for Trump is a secret FASCIST.It's not that Hillary was an unlikable candidate and ran a horrible, disjointed campaign and got beaten by a blowhard. The fun and exciting version is that "Trump activated his white supremacist base." The same people that elected Obama twice are apparently white supremacists. LOL.I’m not a fan of Michael Moore, but he nailed it:

I was selected for a summer internship 2016.I tried to be very open while filling the preference form: I choose many products as my favorite products and I said I'm open about the team I want to join.I even was very open in the  location and start date to get host matching interviews (I negotiated the start date in the interview until both me and my host were happy.) You could ask your recruiter to review your form (there are very cool and could help you a lot since they have a bigger experience).Do a search on the potential team.Before the interviews,  try to find smart question that you are going to ask for the potential host (do a search on the team  to find nice and deep questions to impress your host). Prepare well your resume.You are very likely not going to get algorithm/data structure questions like in the first round. It's going to be just some friendly chat if you are lucky. If your potential team is working on something like machine learning, expect that  they are going to ask you questions about machine learning, courses related to machine learning you have and relevant experience (projects, internship). Of course you have to study that before the interview. Take as long time as you need if you feel rusty. It takes some time to get ready for the host matching (it's less than the technical interview)  but it's worth it of course.

The harshest truth about having a lot of money is that it will destroy many of your close relationships. Don’t think it will? I’m amused at your naivety.Let’s say you become tremendously wealthy overnight, either by winning the lottery, being drafted first overall to the NBA, or selling a company you started. At first, you’ll be thrilled, ecstatic, etc. But quickly you’ll start to notice the strain that others are putting on you at all times. Loved ones will come to you with needs that are actually wants. You’ll say yes at first, and then they’ll keep coming back for more. And more. And more. You’ll grow resentful. You’ll cut them off. They’ll never forgive you, let alone remember all of your previous generosity. They will call you greedy, selfish, etc. They will blame you for all of their problems. How ironic.Don’t think it will happen to you? Let me give you a few examples of things that have happened to my side of the family, which is considerably richer than any of our other family members. My mother didn’t speak to her father at the time of his death, because his wife (whom he married shortly after my grandmother died) called him the “Jew bastard” while screaming at him on the phone, because he had just cut her off after she spent recklessly the money that had been set aside for the both of them.Also, my dad does not speak to his brother, nor does anyone else on this side of the family, because my uncle’s wife took a similarly nasty stance toward my dad after he caught her funneling money to her family back in Taiwan. I never would have imagined, as a child, that there would come a day when my mother and grandfather didn’t speak. Nor would I have imagined that money would cause my Uncle to act as if he had been born to a different set of parents.My mom constantly feels guilt and pressure from her side of the family, which doesn’t have much money. My cousins on that side chose to continue having children, despite not being able to afford the children they already had, and it has put undue strain on relationships with them. I also, from time to time, am approached by family members on that side of the family with absurd “investment schemes” asking me to connect them to wealthy and influential people that they’ve seen me pictured with on social media or online. It is awkward and uncomfortable when a cousin asks you to signNow out to Mark Cuban and ask him to invest in their illegitimate marijuana “startup.”The parents of my close friends would occasionally approach my dad with “investment opportunities.” My dad is far smarter and savvier than any of those people were, and saw right through the bullshit. I learned early that you can’t trust anybody else at all when it comes to your own money, because everyone will tell you how to spend it, and it will always involve them benefitting somehow. Now, as an adult, I’m extremely skeptical of everyone. I assume anybody who knows I’m well off is scheming for ways to screw me. I’m only interested in friendships and relationships with people who are wealthy. I have to insulate myself to protect myself—it’s not out of conceit or arrogance, but rather practicality.Money comes between people like nothing else in this world. Humanity is driven by greed. What is war? Much of the time, it’s two (or more) groups of human beings fighting over land whose resources can be sold for wealth.Another harsh reality of being “wealthy” is that in nearly every instance your wealth will be vastly outmatched by someone else in your life, and it can make your own wealth seem inconsequential. The term “wealthy” really is entirely relative. I live in a zipcode that is world famous for its extreme wealth and opulence (90210). Here, I barely scratch the surface when it comes to overall wealth. The home I live in would sell for a 7 figure sum, and in most zip codes that would make it very much one of the most expensive homes in town. However, as the crow flies, there’s an undeveloped property just a half mile from my home that is asking $1,000,000,000. Yes, that’s a billion dollars for a 137 acre piece of land. In one neighborhood nearby (Trousdale Estates), the median house sells for nearly 10 million. You can spend 10 million on a house and be around the average. It can be hard to wrap one’s head around that.Understanding how the degrees of wealth work is important for anyone trying to make sense of what it is to be “wealthy.” Nowadays, 1 million USD doesn’t go nearly as far as it should—however, it’s more than enough to take care of all your genuine needs for a long while. You won’t have to worry about how to pay for food, shelter, or healthcare. And that goes a long, long way. For that reason, I believe the greatest difference is between 0 and 1 million USD. The jump from 1 million USD to 10 million USD will allow you to live in even greater comfort, and buy more things that you don’t need. I still consider someone who has 1 million to be wealthy, even though they are a far, far cry away from being in a position to spend whatever they want, whenever they want, all the time. Even at 10 or 100 million, you’ll need to be considerate of your spending. If you enter the billions range in liquid holdings, hats off to you. Most likely, you are in a position to spend that way. But few who would be widely considered “wealthy” are worth 10 figures. That’s why those people are famous for their wealth—it’s extraordinarily rare. InIn summary, if you think that having money is a cure all for the woes of life, you will be sorely, sorely disappointed if and when you “become wealthy.”

In 2016, hairdressers, hairstylists and cosmetologists earned an average of $14.23 per hour, including commission, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This comes to about $29,590 per year.

The length of the hairdresser training program depends on how many hours your state requires to be allowed to sit for the board exams (the national average is around 1500 hours), and whether you plan to attend the school full-time or part-time. Most students complete the full cosmetology program in 12 to 24 months.

Unlike traditional colleges, which will often take you four years to complete a bachelor's degree, you can find a cosmetology school that allows you to complete your training in as little as eight months or up to two years depending on if you decide to pursue your education full or part-time.

Education Requirements Hairstylists usually need a high school diploma or GED to apply to cosmetology school and typically graduate in 9 months to a year with an associate's degree in cosmetology. Most states require hairstylists to be licensed.

Cosmetologist / Hairstylist Program Licensing requirements include completion of a 1000-hour course in Cosmetology from a school that is licensed by the New York State Education Department. Students are also required to take and pass the written and practical exam given by the New York Licensing Department.
