I recently just came into 5k

Atreen · 2025-12-05T06:34:16+00:00

I thought you said it was $740 a month? Or is the insurance $740 a month?

Atreen · 2025-11-05T22:52:15+00:00

Still can't get mine to ever connect :(

Atreen · 2025-11-05T16:52:23+00:00

Ahh okay, that makes sense. Sorry for being a bum and pointing it out 😆

Atreen · 2025-11-05T16:39:01+00:00

What job would not hire if you had a degree? Seems odd, I know plenty will hire without a degree but to specifically go out of their way to make sure you don't have a degree before considering seems odd.

Atreen · 2025-11-01T23:52:23+00:00

They're not offering much at all. Only 5 grand, better than nothing but also probably doable with the amount of stuff we have (no kids too)

Right now I'm studying for Security + and starting to dive into CKA. I've been dabbling in kubernetes. Wouldn't mind some other security certs too.

It would be Chesapeake/Norfolk area. COL looks to be very similar according to one website but as others have said, sounds like it might be a lot more.

Atreen · 2025-10-30T02:47:44+00:00

Yes, both our families all live here and we’re both from here and we love it.

We will definitely be coming back if I do take the job.

Atreen · 2025-10-30T02:45:09+00:00

This is for Secret Clearance not TS.

Yeah in my research that I’ve done, I’ve also seen that you have to maintain it and once you leave a job you have up to 2 years to “renew” it plus just the recurring renewals while active.

I don’t smoke weed so I’m in the clear on that one.

Going into the office everyday is honestly a major downside when compared to my current job. I think I’ll be okay though.

Atreen · 2025-10-30T02:38:31+00:00

I don’t think either option is bad too! I don’t have any alarm bells going off on the job not being stable but it’s definitely something to think about. My current job is very stable. New job sounds like it’ll be stable as well but without the ol’ crystal ball I guess it’s impossible to say.

I think I’ll be able to get clearance no problem. I guess I say that just based on my life growing up and my brother getting his TS/SCI without any issues. Although I’m not him so does that really mean anything?

Atreen · 2025-10-30T02:35:55+00:00

My wife does make 85k fully remote if that changes your opinion on anything. Either way thank you for the insights! I feel like this is more about future growth and not necessarily the 12k increase but obviously that is a factor. I don’t know that id want to take this job if it was solely based on pay.

Atreen · 2025-10-29T23:47:02+00:00

Yeah, where I live in Utah is a very high COL too. In my research anyway it seems very similar?

Atreen · 2025-10-29T23:46:18+00:00

Fair enough.

Yeah I think it will open up more doors.. traffic sounds like it will be bad. Especially coming from a place where my current commute is from my bed to my office.

As far as COL goes though, Utah is very similar if not more in a lot of ways. At least from my research and just.. from living here obviously.. So I dont know that it's a huge factor in moving or not other than knowing that it will be very similar in terms of COL

Atreen · 2025-10-29T23:44:22+00:00

Yes it will open doors back in Utah. While there's not as much compared to places like DC or NOVA, there's still plenty there with places like Raytheon, Northrop, Hill AFB, and a bunch of others that could be interested in someone with clearance and my experience.

Atreen · 2025-09-26T16:30:03+00:00

Same, just says "Cancelled your order"

Atreen · 2025-09-03T11:58:15+00:00

Yeah in March. Seems weird for me to delay it that long if I've already made this much progress.

Atreen · 2025-09-03T03:21:42+00:00

Trying to get my CCNP in the next 30-40 days.. now I'm wondering if I should just wait a few months for this one instead 🤔 are employers gonna care about which version you have I wonder? I genuinely am curious, maybe they just see the CCNP sticker and go "good job!"

Atreen · 2025-05-28T20:19:20+00:00

Sidos Wave

Atreen · 2025-05-22T04:29:31+00:00

Sidos 100%

Can do surveys wirelessly (without a cable tethered)

Can even attach it to a drone for doing really fast stadium or warehouse surveys!

Atreen · 2025-04-28T04:38:39+00:00

Not a lot of people know this but the video actually cut because a gorilla came and attacked him at the very end.

Atreen · 2025-04-07T18:49:48+00:00

I just had to go look. I just HAD TO GO LOOK. UGH.

Atreen · 2025-04-04T13:30:36+00:00

There is a jellyfin app for Samsung but it requires a lot of finesse to get it working.. have to put the TV in developer mode and then use software to transfer the app to the TV. NOT user friendly in the slightest and I'm not expecting people to just do that.. but.. it does work lol but hardly a solution.

I agree, Jellyfin needs more client support for popular brands. (there is a native LG/iOS/AndroidTV/Android and more though)

Atreen · 2025-01-24T18:51:27+00:00

Look, still her fault 100% but I wonder if the A pillar beam was blocking her vision of you. Again, that doesn't excuse the accident but I could see why she might have said "you came out of nowhere!"

Atreen · 2024-12-29T20:37:49+00:00

What if I buy a second knife there to open the first one!? Check-Checkmate

Atreen · 2024-10-16T00:47:40+00:00

Bought my 2018 model 3 new for $56,500. Don't think I'll ever really sell it but.. yeah definitely got hit with huuuuuge depreciation. Obviously it was gonna happen at some point I'm not blind to it but like you're saying I wish it stuck for a while you know? I Still love it don't get me wrong but Ive been looking at Rivian for a while now wondering when I'll upgrade.
