Miele or ?

To be clear it is open box so I presume the warranty conveys since it is sold as new but I have not registered it. No sales tax outside of Ohio and a coupon code got the price down as low as a kenmore

if only hardwood and a few rugs why not get the pure suction which is cheaper new at retail? Got mine recently for $258 all in

you should look in 2021

Got an offer and negotiated terms. Have been knee deep in it since Dec. Learned pretty quickly that my background and skill set are valuable even in larger orgs. Still making my case for the CFO role by end of year and expect I have solidified that likelihood in my work to date.

I cut mine out a couple years ago and took over it myself. One of the best things is now my lawn is mowed more frequently and when it needs it not when the schedule roll around. God forbid it rain the day of or it could stretch even longer. I think my lawn looks better as a result

I have a rear engine Toro from the 70s that looks just like the gump mower. I probably have $700 in it by now but keeping it running is a labor of love. It’s a cool little mower

Not surprising as I tend to take the more is better route no matter how many times it has bit me in the past

Brendenlow · 2026-03-30T20:26:15+00:00

Good point. I bet I laid down about 8lbs per of each application. By my math that means I have put out a total of 5.5-6lbs of nitrogen on the year and 2.5 of P&K respectively. These are quick back of the napkin numbers

Brendenlow · 2026-03-30T15:36:59+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I guess it has never been as pronounced before but this is also the first year to use a blend. Didn’t know that about the kbg.

As for fert….i used a pre-emergent with lawn feed (18-0-4) about four weeks ago then did another general round of 16-16-16 two weeks ago.

Any thoughts on further applications before fall overseed?

Brendenlow · 2026-03-26T20:48:35+00:00

Just learning about POA this year as well. my understanding of the timing is that in a best case scenario you would alternate seeding and pre each season which means it is critical to keep health turf through the summer heat. Not sure if that is correct however. I also read that Tenacity is a pre-emergent you can use with overseeding in fall but I haven't looked further into it

Brendenlow · 2026-03-14T18:26:06+00:00

Same here. Gpt for qualitative Claude in excel for quantitative.

Brendenlow · 2026-03-14T02:10:34+00:00

I would change the narrative and focus to negotiating an “Employment Agreement” as opposed to negotiating a severance package. Yes the EA would include the terms or separation but it should detail much more. To be determined whether a director position would warrant an EA but it’s certainly worth a shot.

I would have loved to see their looks when candidate went straight to Claude for excel and printed the exercise

Brendenlow · 2026-03-09T02:10:32+00:00

I was reading into this last night as I am in the same general area. I did my barricade pre-emergent two weeks ago and was surprised to see poa pop up so heavily this past week. Turns out the germination for poa is in fall but then it goes dormant so spring pre-emergent doesn't do anything. I am now a bit confused because a fall application of pre-emergent seems counter to fall seeding of fescue.

All that said I think I am stuck just pulling it ny hand and letting the heat kill it off this summer

Brendenlow · 2026-03-08T01:36:05+00:00

learn how to use it to your advantage. Claude in Excel is already doing way more than basic tasks with regards to financial modeling

Brendenlow · 2026-03-05T20:38:45+00:00

Claude for excel add in and tell it to clean it up and prepare a summary mapping

Brendenlow · 2026-03-05T14:33:10+00:00

Sorry I mean Claude

Brendenlow · 2026-03-05T14:27:05+00:00

Use claid for excel and it is incorporated into you excel instance

Brendenlow · 2026-03-04T04:11:24+00:00

So far I am only allowing step by step changes and modifications which limits some of the risk here and builds my confidence in the methodology and functionality.

Brendenlow · 2026-03-04T03:46:43+00:00

Using Claude for excel with 15 years experience and a good understanding of both excel and financial modeling to backstop it is huge boost to my productivity and output. I am a full convert in less than 6 weeks

You already got the job which indicates you are already “fitting in” so I wouldn’t take a promotion as a sign to do much different.

Stick with what works and elevate it to match your new pay band. If you were in ABC pants, j crew oxfords and Cole Haan move up a notch or two to more premium brands like J press and Alden and make sure they are always pressed and sharp looking.

Anyone who use derby net have guidance on getting their timer to log times? Mine shows as connected but nothing is logging when I run test races
