The federal minimum wage in the US is 7.25 $ an hour, but I live in Romania and here that would be very decent pay. I can get by for now with earning $2-3 an hour, which, while it may seem a ridiculous, pathetic amount, seems...

SovietDwarf I suppose people that are unemployed in practice but blocked from unemployment benefits for whatever reason make 0 a month both in my country and yours.

I heard about this from one of my colleagues. Her husband was asking her to quit her job and stay at home to take care of their children. Why should women only to take care of children? Why should women to do the sacrifices for...

SovietDwarf Roles are in our mind, anyway. Education is different for boys and girls in many insidious and not so insidious ways; even to this day men are encouraged to be more aggressive, physical and competitive. When all this time, while genetics dictate that men...

SovietDwarf Beauty, nothing. You've already taken up that niche and as you say it's considerably harder now. What I'm looking for is something that works, if not right away, than within 1-2 months, even if it doesn't work as well in the long term. I am primarily a...

Since nobody has done it here already I would like to take a few moments to give a big shoutout to the late Mr. Simo Hayha (1905 - 2002) of Finland, a veteran of their Winter War with the Soviet Union. At first he appeared to be a...

SovietDwarf On TVTropes, in the Real Life section of "Beware the nice ones," then I found some more info on the Net.

SovietDwarf Ordinary jobs are good because generally you produce something palpable for society when you perform them, which means they are sustainable. The problem is getting one. My country's official unemployment is 7.08% but the real rate is well over 10%. Maybe up to...

Starting a family is truly difficult. Just imagine all the responsibilities that come along with it. The couple has their own roles in building the family of their dreams. It's important that they make sure they provide what their...

SovietDwarf My parents worked in shifts at the same place, but they arranged to work in different shifts so that we kids were virtually never home alone. Though we didn't appreciate it quite so much at the time, now I at least know the value of that. Especially...

SovietDwarf Too right. If it works well for them, especially. Not too long ago you would all have been condemned to abject poverty by his injury. I don't want to talk for other people but that doesn't sound like a lot of fun. Note that this doesn't always work, though....

SovietDwarf Sorry, but I need around 300 dollars a month (figuring about 150 h work then), not 30.

SovietDwarf You do get paid for your blog posts directly on a number of sites, but ultimately their own revenue is based on ad clicks and any products they sell. Anyway, I am very particular about my content when I write, so there isn't going to be that much of it. Not...

As regular gamer and a person who makes money online, making money playing games was not something I could pass up. Nor do I think I'll quit doing so anytime soon. When I talk to friends and family they are often surprised I...

SovietDwarf Very interested in that. I'm still wondering about one thing, though. Unless it has entertainment value as a spectated event, why on Earth would anyone pay you to play games? What do they profit from this? I for one almost never click on ads. I will click on...

SovietDwarf It probably has to do with a rather popular (and silly) idea that Serious Business and Fun and Games are antagonistic and should never be mixed. Most people don't like what they do for a living, since most jobs tend to be monotonous, menial and degrading, with...

SovietDwarf I have a pretty hard time respecting formal institutions with no worthy function. True "marriage" is what you and your boyfriend have right now, by your account, not a piece of paper. Marriage the institution originated as a means of regulating property...

Hello, I was wondering if it was acceptable to lift weights with very sore muscles (DOMS) from a previous strength-training session. Would this increase more growth and strength by gritting your teeth and pushing through the...

SovietDwarf This is correct. The growth and strengthening of your muscles occurs when they repair the micro-ruptures caused by your exercise with excess material (hence the need for protein intake). If you work them too hard your muscles will be damaged too much and you...
