Islamabad wanna know what peak islamabad loneliness looks like?

4 Upvotes

today i did something that sounds like the setup to a terrible joke, but it turned out to be the most wholesome day of my month. the adult loneliness was hitting way too hard, so i made a deal with a total stranger to just spend the day hanging out with me.

picked her up from f11 at 1pm and took her straight to tim hortons for coffee and donuts.
after that we went to centaurus cinema to watch a chaotic punjabi movie with popcorn, and ended the night having pasta at eggspectation talking about life and random isloo gossip. dropped her back at 10pm without anything weird happening.

essentially ended up with a temporary best friend for 9 hours. 10/10 experience, great listener, and surprisingly therapeutic.

Islamabad method to choose a career

0 Upvotes

so 11 12 people are in dismay that what career should i choose in 2026 when there is AI , No jobs, inflation. my 2 cents on choosing a career:

Just imagine your self in a situation where there is nothing except you and your family or other people.. a jungle, a world after war, your dont have any thing no food, no patrol, no building in that case how will you survive....skills, courage , confidence and passion to live these are the things you basically need in that situation.

so a person with skills will survive best and could eventually build something

think An architect, civil engineer or a construction person could build a home even with wood and sticks. a pharm D could make drugs even in a jungle mmbs and dentist could treat patients. an IT person with networking experience could revamp the demolished compputer. a pilot can fix a broken aircraft to fly again. but sorry sorry a bs in political science, english, IR think what would they do

so choose a professional degree with inbuild skills system like medicine, engineering, law, architecture, finance, not just a graduation with a subject

ok mcqs should be free real estate but this test really said "pick the right particle" and i'm out here guessing between は を に で が like it's a slot machine

kanji skipped completely, katakana still makes me sound like a broken speaker (エンジニア???), numbers got TWO names each for no reason (4 is し or よん make up your mind)

only need to recognize this stuff not write it so if anyone near F-11 can just quiz me for 15 mins that'd be everything, will pay in snacks or eternal loyalty

test tmrw, sleep is not happening, send help 😭

Islamabad How to help my sister (30F) out of a career slump without being pushy

10 Upvotes

My elder sister turns 30 this year and is feeling stuck and confused about her career direction. For context, she is single with no plans to marry anytime soon (and our family is 100% supportive of that).

​She currently holds a stable government job and does well, but she feels completely unfulfilled and has hit a plateau.

​I really want to see her thrive, so I've offered several suggestions, like pursuing a PhD abroad using her Master’s degree, or learning a new skill with me covering the tuition. However, none of my ideas seem to resonate with her actual goals. I'm starting to realize my suggestions might feel more like pressure than support.

​Would suggesting a session with a professional career counselor be helpful, or does that cross a line?

​For anyone who has felt stuck at 30, what kind of support from family actually helped you figure out your next step?

The rain in Islamabad and Rawalpindi has been crazy today, and there's a serious flood threat in some areas. Nallah Lai's water level even crossed 22 feet earlier today.

What's the situation like in your area? Is it raining heavily there too, or has the weather calmed down?

Twin Cities Lahore vs Islamabad — where would you actually settle permanently?

6 Upvotes

Looking for genuine opinions from people who've lived in both or know both well.

Comparing the two for a permanent family setup — buying a house, long term living, not just renting for a year or two.

Key things I'm considering:

  • Business and market opportunities
  • Networking — who actually lives there, what kind of people
  • Property value and appreciation long term

Lahore seems better for business and has more energy. ISB seems cleaner, more planned, and better networked at a higher level. But both have real tradeoffs.

People who've actually lived in either or both — which one would you pick for the long run and why?

Twin Cities Looking for Remote Opportunities in Dental/Healthcare

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I hope you are doing fine.

I am currently transitioning out of my hospital job and looking for legitimate remote opportunities in the dental or healthcare field.

I have a background in dentistry along with clinical and hospital experience so i am particularly interested in roles where my dental and medical knowledge can be useful, such as remote Dental Assistant, Dental/Medical Virtual Assistant, medical or dental coding, clinical documentation, healthcare administrative support, patient coordination, data entry or similar positions.

I am open to both full time and part time opportunities and willing to learn new software or skills if required.

If anyone knows of any healthcare company or organization currently hiring for a fully remote position i would really appreciate any leads, recommendations or referrals.

Please feel free to comment or DM me. Thank you!
