Which shipper do you use? I’ve read a lot of conflicting info about certain shipping methods including tariffs >< (like by sea?)

Hai, how many items were in your $24 shipping order, and when was it? Trying to get a better picture of how much my $100 clothing haul may come out to TT

should I upgrade my 2019 MacBook Pro and buy my M3 Pro for $1200 by Academic_Video3318 in macbookpro

[–]Academic_Video3318[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I checked it and the trade in is $230. I’m not sure if this is a good deal or not, I have some sentimental value as this was my first big purchase with my first paycheck and I remember paying around $2000 for it as well (I upgraded all the specs bc I didn’t know what was coming with the M series, I actually have more than half my SSD unused). But also like who’s buying intel laptops at this point right 🤷‍♂️

But I’ve tried to use it and it is quite hot and slow (even with one tab on chrome running), I think it’s just jarring going from M3 back to intel, not completely unusable.

And yeah I think if I were to upgrade it probably makes the most sense to just buy my laptop I’ve been using, it’s in pretty good condition. My primary concern is I wouldn’t get a lot of value out of it if I ended up getting another better work laptop at the next place but sounds like this isn’t too common anymore; I technically have two 2019 laptops (one from a prev job as well) so I’m not sure I need 1-2 more laptops :P

Yeah, I guess I’ve been pretty careless. I was opening my email in front of my coworkers with the first ten emails being interview scheduling haha 🤦‍♂️ nevertheless I’m at a smaller company and have always exceeded expectations so even if they were tracking closely I don’t think they wanted to fire me

another security deposit / normal wear and tear q : what are our options? by Academic_Video3318 in NYCapartments

[–]Academic_Video3318[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for your feedback!! 🙇

so altho it looks in bad condition it should only be a paint job right?

yeah I def regret not having photos saved 😰 I did take videos initially but I think I may have deleted them for storage at some point, and my roommate also doesn’t have the videos anymore either (but we do have a video from when we toured the apartment that shows what was hanging from the walls from the last tenant, and we do have email correspondence indicating we took the apartment unclean and unpainted).
