You press the button, a server appears a few seconds later. Need to order, press the button. Need water, press the button. Need the check, press the button. Need for them to pick up credit card, press the button. I love it; it's like a flight attendant call button and I never have to wait for anything.
Take a class at a community college or maybe teach a class or become a substitute teacher at a local high school or grade school.
Join a sports club (like others have mentioned here) - Cross-fit, Jiu-jitsu, Krav-Maga, running, cycling.
Go to your library and check out the bulletin board - usually there are club notices or other events posted.
Get a part-time job that involves a lot of interaction - Walmart, McDonald's, chair-lift operator at a ski resort.
Volunteer at a food repository or at a charity like Feed My Starving Children or assist at a retirement community. For volunteering, in Chicago we have https://www.chicagocares.org. There might be something similar in your city.
People were just drawn to him and I was in awe of how he captivated us with his stories. I was able to study him for a couple of years and came up with a list of how he was able to hold our attention:
1) Gary spoke loud (he had to since we were in the train entryway) but did not shout.
2) He adjusted his tempo of speaking to match the urgency of his story. Just like a good song, he had noticeably different ways of expressing himself.
3) Just as he adjusted his speaking, his hand movements and facial expressions also supported his story telling.
4) He was older (maybe early 60s) so he had a lot of life experience.
5) He was not condescending or patronizing. He was very empathetic with his audience and the stories he told. You could tell that he really cared about the subjects of his stories and how we could relate to them.
6) He knew everyone's name. So when he talked to you he would use your name a lot.
7) He always was to the point. He didn't meander or deviate from his train of thought. Every story had a build-up and a conclusion.
8) He was very funny without being mean. Sort of like Cosby before we found out what Cosby was really like.
9) He was always happy. He loved his job and his family and he was nearing retirement (he told us this). His happiness was infectious.
10) He was always asking questions. Sometimes, I'd get to the train early and it would just be me and him. He'd always ask about my day, any interesting projects, etc. He would then comment on what he had for lunch ("Have you ever had the Chicken Vesuvio?" he asked) and go on about an experience he had at an awesome restaurant.
After two years I had to stop taking the train, but I'd sometimes hear about Gary from a friend. He did retire a couple of years later and moved somewhere warmer. I've always read articles about excellent speakers, but then I always think that I was fortunate to learn from Gary.
Every issue type is configured with its associated issue-create screen and that screen has its fields. When you change the issue type during issue creation you're replacing one set of fields with another which results in the information loss you experienced. This just doesn't affect the description field, but all other system fields and custom fields.
While contemplating my life and sad existence, a genie appeared and granted me one wish. "Everything that can be done, has been done. There's nothing for me to create." I said.
The genie replied "You need a challenge".
"I've met all challenges and conquered them. I don't think that will help".
"Well, then. I'll give you the ultimate challenge" the genie pronounced.
With renewed excitement, I accepted it as my wish.
The genie clapped their hands and I found myself in my new life.
This new life is the one I've always known and remembered. My old life is just a dream, barely a memory.
My new life is much more exciting. There are an infinite number of challenges waiting for me.
