It was in San Diego, near the Tijuana river outlet that over flows with sewage from a plant in Mexico a few times a year, closing the beaches temporarily each time.
Went to the beach yesterday. Saw a toddler eating sand. No adult nearby. Checked around and found the dad. Told him his kid was munching on sand. He said "Yeah, thats sort of his thing". Thought I was being trolled until he did nothing about it and continued on with his day unaffected.
I have to agree. I love the idea of Matrix, but as someone who pushed his family to use it for the last two years, it is not reliable. Messages not going through, or going through but delayed, or having decryption errors. We moved away from it about two weeks ago due to important messages not making it through on many occasions and the confusion and frustration it's caused.
I don't think it requires lying. I do think you can advance yourself faster by doing some lying, but you should stick to things that aren't actually job related. Length of time working jobs, increasing your previous job titles by a level, making your roles sound more critical are all good ones. Saying you can do something that you cannot can definitely get you in to trouble if they decide to ask you about it, or worse, you get hired and then they need you to apply the skill you don't actually have.
That being said, I have seen people straight up lie about their qualifications, get the job, flounder for a while and then become at least minimally capable and then hold the job long term. If you consider trying this, at least have a fall back plan for if you get fired.
Grit. Most people think I have some sort of innate natural ability with everything I do. In reality, I just persevere through difficulty and failure, as many times as it takes to arrive at success. The downside is that I have a decent number of things I have tried that I probably should have given up on sooner.
