That being said, you need to be able to handle criticism (constructive or not) in order for that conversation to happen and benefit you

If you’re up for it, why not ask your past dates why they think you guys didn’t work out, or what you could work on as a person. People you’ve spent time with will probably give you the most objective take if there was anything other than “we just didn’t mesh”.

- Comment on Would it make sense for a person in a "privileged class" to move from a red state? 1 year ago:
Hey you’ve clearly been thinking a lot about this and where you want to take your life. It will take effort either way, whether you choose to build your life there or elsewhere, so feel the freedom to try something else. If you’re undecided, maybe think about what you would regret the least. I’ve also thought making a quick pros and cons list for myself helps. Best of luck to you
- Comment on How do primarily overnight package focused carriers make any money on 2-day services? 1 year ago:
I used to work at Amazon, though nowhere near fulfillment so I’m not an expert but can give you a general perspective from within the company. Carriers also charge the seller for shipping services, so what you pay for as the buyer may be different. Costs are also offset by volume of packages. With 2 days the logistics become less tight than with 1 day. Ground shipping becomes more of a possibility, and is much less expensive comparatively.
This next one may be Amazon specific, but they would preemptively distribute some products shipped from sellers in closer warehouses. If they have to hold the inventory anyways, holding it closer to a metropolitan area makes it easier to use cheaper ground shipping methods. With that I’m mind, I know inventory holding costs were more of a focus for cost optimization internally.
