In this task you are given an anecdote. You must find out whether the anecdote is something the author has done or is considering doing. Label the instances as "HISTORICAL" when the author has already done something and label them as "HYPOTHETICAL" when the author is considering doing something in the future.

[EX Q]: The irony here is intense. Five years ago, when I was even more of a fuck-up than I am now, I worked as a freelancer for an internet marketing company. They assigned a large, lucrative project to me - managing the social media engagement and writing promotional for a large for-profit university. The more I wrote, the more I realised that the school's infrastructure, teachers, and school-material were the kind that I wouldn't use if even I'd gotten it for free. It was purely a way to fleece students out of their money in return for worthless certificates. I got so sick of it I didn't even invoice the company for my final payment. I was proud of that last bit.

Next four years, I go through extreme depression, crippling back pain, get diagnosed with severe ADHD, spend a year and a half unemployed. I'm finally getting my life back together... attending counselling, racking up certificates, straightening out my diet and health, quitting smoking etc. Found a breathtaking woman who believes the sun shines out of my ass and wants to marry me.

But I'm still unemployed. Trying to find a job has been grotesque, humiliating experience.

Now, the same manager who assigned me that previous soul-sucking job has reached out to me again because apparently I did a damn good job. They want to pay me more (a lot more) to write content for a larger, scammier university. I know that these places take the dreams and hopes of everyday people trying to make their lives better through education, and suck those dreams dry for the last penny they can squeeze out.

I'm desperate for a job. I want to make this woman happy. I want to show her family (and mine) that I'm not a fuck-up. I'm quickly running out of financial and personal resources.

What's the right thing to do? Would I be the asshole if I took the job? Do I owe it to the woman who believes in me to do something I frankly think is evil? This is literally the first job offer I've had in years. I'm scared of turning it down, I'm scared of accepting it.
[EX A]: HYPOTHETICAL

[EX Q]: My mom is between places to stay right now and waiting to get into an apartment. So she says.

She has cleaned out my garage, which has been storing her stuff along with mine and my husband's. She cleaned it out really nice and vacuumed and got all the spidies out. She put a bed in there and wants to stay here until she gets a place of her own. I said that's fine if she wants to but she doesn't have to sleep in the garage she can sleep on the couch or wherever.

Now, she has told her boyfriend that he can stay here in the garage with her. I said no. That's fucking ridiculous and I don't want some dude at my house all the time. She said he will stay in the garage.

I said no but then she said just for one night because she already told him he could. I said one night, fine.

They stayed and got drunk and made enchiladas and had a good old time.

Now she has asked me again. And said it's only 3 nights a week. Blah blah. Guilt guilt.

AITA if I say no to that?

I don't know him, he is loud as fuck and the two times I have met him I have got caught in a one sided conversation where he just complains loudly about something and cusses and it feels like he is yelling at me. I know he isn't yelling at me it just feels that way.

He isn't s bad guy, from what I can tell. He doesn't have anywhere to stay and my mom really wants to be with him all the time and it IS just my garage. And she said it will only be 3 nights a week until they get a place. 

She has been saying she is going to get a place for a while now.

I don't know, I feel like an asshole because I guess I always thought of myself as a good person who would share what I have with someone who needed it. But I have a baby daughter and I breastfeed and I want my space to feel safe. 
[EX A]: HISTORICAL

[EX Q]: Back when I was in highschool, there was a fellow friend of mine who slightly struggled in his studies. He told me that seeing all his classmates score higher than him in exams made him had less confidence in himself(he’s depressed because of it if I remembered correctly). Being me, I pondered on this thought for awhile and came up with a solution.

The week after, I sat beside him in class and asked him mostly the questions that were kinda hard. My best subject was Maths but that was also his worst.  I asked him questions after questions. If he explained it to me wrongly I would know and did the ‘but i though u need to do this first’. I can see why Maths was his worst as he had no passion in studying it at all. I lied to him about how i cant study at all and barely passed everything. After I mentioned that, he said that he is glad to have a friend that is not as smart as everyone else and on par with him.

Long story short, I scored above average in the mid-year exams while he barely passed. He got transferred not long after due to family issues. We haven’t got intouch since. Im just wondering if I did the wrong thing or not.

(I know this story is kinda WAY out of league with other AITA stories but this thing has been on my mind a lot and i wanna lift the burden off my shoulders by sharing this with others and reading take on this story.tqvm)
