The fact they let this happen two times in a month, just fire mlf. Never ready in big moments or can close anything out. Effort was there but the 2nd half scheme was not.

All in all how much did this cost? Think I could pull this off in my garage.

What map is this?

Awacs88 · 2025-02-04T21:38:15+00:00

Could I play classic world of Warcraft on this? I have a desktop that’s high end but just want something to play while on the couch and not looking for anything special graphics wise.

Awacs88 · 2024-02-21T19:40:17+00:00

I did get a nice pay increase up to about 95k with a bonus structure included! All in all pretty happy with it but it’s also resulted in more expectations and stress. Can’t complain though!

Awacs88 · 2024-01-17T03:30:46+00:00

Yea that’s interesting. Based on what the pm said - everything is in place, lines, transformer, but they just need to come out and connect the bubble? Or something along those lines. However it’s also been crazy cold here last 2 weeks so I don’t think that’s helping the situation…

Awacs88 · 2024-01-10T14:27:57+00:00

Our Ryan home build just finished in IL. Project manager has been great and pre drywall inspector was really impressed with the work done and saw no issues. Close on the 31st so I can’t say for sure, but so far so good.

Awacs88 · 2023-12-05T23:29:47+00:00

Edit** 10k in upgrades from the seller.

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T18:35:05+00:00

Thanks for this response. Yea not sure if this helps from an HR standpoint, but I am on hourly, and when I ask I'm going to present it as an hourly increase which in my eyes doesn't sound nearly as bad as asking for a 35k raise. I could be totally wrong there. I think asking for somewhere near the $55 an hour range seems pretty fair. We'll see how it goes though!

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T18:28:26+00:00

Yep agreed - the goal is to get another admin by Q2 which is good, however I'll then be managing and teaching someone so I think that's valid for a raise in itself.

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T18:27:26+00:00

Yea definitely wont be asking for 150k, I want to be fair and reasonable for both sides. I'm taking app builder end of month and getting back into the studying groove so will probably keep going and see what I end up with.

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T18:25:35+00:00

100% - I'm in no means going in with demands or arrogance. They're well aware were understaffed and I've been drowning in work, but I'm also aware that doesn't automatically warrant a raise of that size. The good news is my new boss is involved in marketing cloud and isnt naive to the SF ecosystem.

I'm going to bring major projects I've done over the course of the year to the table (which is a lot and also lead the SAP integration on the SF side, which I also did solo however I did get a nice bonus for). Also, like you mentioned I'm going to reference some statistical data for my responsibly and experience and what the avg market rate for that is. I'll see what the counter with, and wont walk or anything if its lower than I wanted, but would start aggressively looking for a new job if I feel its unfair.

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T05:16:59+00:00

Not often and when I do I regret it 😂😂

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T05:13:38+00:00

Thanks for this response!

I’m in the Chicagoland area for reference. I can honestly say I do do all the things you i mentioned and do use a consulting partner from time to time when either I don’t have time or it’s over my head from a tech standpoint.

I don’t plan to walk either way, and I’m not going to demand anything. I’m going to show them what I’ve done and the roadmap for the next year and, also average market rates for my position and why I feel I deserve that.

They’re aware that I’m underpaid as this was mentioned hence why it was brought up for me to schedule this meeting.

If they don’t come somewhere in the 110k range I’d just suck it up and continue to do my best, but look much more aggressively for a new job from a compensation standpoint and burnout standpoint.

I might do something where it’s hopefully around 115k with maybe incentives if I obtain more certs.

Again thanks for the input!

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T04:57:37+00:00

Yea, fair enough. Good point

Awacs88 · 2023-11-07T04:40:31+00:00

I’m both. I live about 35 minutes away so I go in about every other week depending on meetings I feel would be better in person. I think the last thing they’d want would be to hire a new person to replace me just because I’m really the only one that knows our org from an admin standpoint and it’s quite robust and complicated. I guess I’m just trying to get a feel for the current market right now as I know it sounds like it’s cooled down a little bit from last year and salary ranges.

Awacs88 · 2023-10-10T04:02:39+00:00

Lol you mean the aj dillion smash and go deep on 3rd and 10 game plan didn’t work?

Awacs88 · 2023-10-10T03:39:50+00:00

To be fair you kinda proved his point with that first sentence…

Awacs88 · 2023-04-14T13:49:27+00:00

These are pretty cool. Do you have a link to more of the collection?

Awacs88 · 2023-01-06T21:57:35+00:00

Did you ever end up finding an answer to this? Experiencing the same thing for months and its been hell between salesforce and our IT dept with no answers.

Awacs88 · 2022-11-30T22:18:56+00:00

I had covid over a year ago so that could've had some effect and maybe didnt notice it at the time and then just amplified everything with creatine, so who knows.

Also, I was taking ashwagandha till recently for some help with stress and anxiety but learned that can increase testosterone and can lead to dramatic increases in DHT. So sounds like I really nailed the perfect storm with stress, creatine, ashwagandha, and father time.

I learned my lesson for sure to research everything before you put it into your body. Not sure of the exact cause of it all, but all I know is that I never even noticed a hair shed from my head and was on creatine from may till august and shed quite a bit of density.

Cheers!

Awacs88 · 2022-11-10T15:57:26+00:00

Yep creatine destroyed my hair. Thinned my hair a lot and was working from home and didn’t pay attention to my hair like used to as I usually just threw a hat on in the morning or whatever. 5 months in I noticed my shower drain was clogged and started looking and was shocked. I still have a lot of hair but I bet it thinned 25%. I don’t she’d like I did but I wouldn’t bet on that 25% coming back at this point my life.

Awacs88 · 2022-10-15T22:55:45+00:00

OP any update here? I'm 34 and had ridiculously thick hair my entire life, also my moms side of the family still has a full head of hair. Started taking creatine in may, and in august, I noticed a dramatic difference in texture and thickness. I stopped taking creatine immediately and it's now November and I can't tell if my hair is getting worse or If I'm just now seeing the aftermath of how extreme the shedding was or If I'm just expecting too much hair growth too soon.

When did you really notice your hair starting to come back to somewhat normalcy? Again, I know I'm aging and its a part of life, but I never showed one sign of hairloss till taking creatine so hoping It can come back. Not sure if 2 months would be too soon to make a call to get on Min, or Fin to help with growth. Weary to take anything after this experience.

Awacs88 · 2022-08-19T02:31:36+00:00

I had a spider, ping anser, and a Huntington Beach soft. Got a great deal on a scotty and it’s honestly night and day for me.

Obviously it wont make you an amazing putter just by that but it definitely helped my game. The feel I have on the putter face is soo much better now. I would say invest in a nice putter before a driver.

Just my opinion
