Most coworkers made working there a breeze but the manager is somebody who will throw me under the bus if she has to and loves playing favorites. I sometimes talk and eat together with those coworkers I enjoy and is a breeze, I sometimes miss working with them, they made the job easier. But the manager is a person I don’t trust. So what does a smart person do in a situation like this?

I work as a courier in 2 shifts: morning and afternoon. If I have an afternoon shift I can do some jogging, stretching and my yoga routine before working, something that I notice makes me feel better. If I have a morning shift, I usually eat at the job, meaning afterwards I won’t feel motivated to do any of my routines (full up), but on these days I feel strange, like something’s missing. I’m not the kind of person that eats small portions, I eat till full up. I don’t know what a solution looks like

I’m old fashioned and learn the old way: you print what you need to study, get a pen and a highlighter, have a seat next to a table and get to it. My current position offers me ample downtime but I’m not allowed to carry a portfolio with my study materials around and I don’t like folding my A size papers (ANSI standard) because I end up ruining them that way. A smartphone’s screen is not very big and highlighting text with it is a nightmare. This is medicine I’m studying, meaning lots of graphics to locate veins, nerves… I don’t find it practical but maybe you do? If so, any tips? I could create an epub or pdf file from the materials and use LibreraFD to access them. I don’t know.

cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/41171004 I’ve always been very private oriented: I started using linux-debian 20 years ago after discarding windows and apple. I rarely buy online but when I did, to be as private as possible I used to create an account using fake data by the e commerce platform I wanted, get my order and then ignore the account until I wanted yo use it again. Most of the times I used a vpn. This worked till the platform banned me. Now I’m thinking about investing in ETFs to build some capital for my retirement and platforms recommended to me like trade republic or scalable capital seem to be exclusively smartphone reliant. I wouldn’t use fake data to create accounts here, nor would it be possible (bank data involved). The trouble with smartphones: I don’t want to be that guy changing smartphones every 2 or even 4 or 8 years. Spending $200 for a phone for such a short period of time is just a dumb idea, but I don’t know if it would be safe to use my 2018 android 8 smartphone to invest in ETFs. This 2018 model is my first smartphone. It’s a second hand one somebody gave me because he thought I really needed it. I would have never bought a new smartphone on my own. However, unsupported models are not secure for investing and this model stopped being supported years ago. Another trouble I see: to use scalable capital or trade republic I’d have to download their app in my smartphone. Google is a company I don’t trust. Each time I needed to use something from their app database I got it using aurora, but I’m afraid scalable capital will automatically ban me if I download their app from f-droid instead of doing it officially using google. Using google to create an account would mean giving them my real data, because otherwise I risk being labeled a scammer. Correct me if wrong. I’d love to invest using only a browser on a desktop.
