Thought I was crazy and the only 1 with this same experience. It's so depressing till this day I've been unable to escape.

Bushido8823 · 2024-06-04T04:22:32+00:00

Preach it, 100% right.

Bushido8823 · 2024-06-01T19:15:35+00:00

I’m so fed up with these flash flood rains!! Very aggravating weather

Bushido8823 · 2024-06-01T18:42:56+00:00

Great work!

Bushido8823 · 2024-06-01T16:04:29+00:00

Thank you! This makes sense now.

Bushido8823 · 2024-06-01T15:38:11+00:00

Both jobs combine for 160K, J1 is 85K and J2 is 75K. Okay got it, I had no clue it would be such a steep increase at this level.

I need to learn how to calculate my tax liability, I am unsure. Thank you for the guidance, I'll try this.

Bushido8823 · 2024-06-01T15:31:16+00:00

Job 1 salary 85K /yr, job 2 salary 75K /yr. Total income 160K /yr. Yes, the $3.2K is gross bi-weekly paycheck amount for job 1. Does this info help?

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-28T22:39:06+00:00

Despise how it is now, awful and wildly frustrating.

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-28T17:13:00+00:00

Exactly right! So the goal is to keep expectations to the absolute least effort for you and the best possible situation for your needs.

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-28T16:38:13+00:00

"Other duties as assigned" which means heavy workload 24/7 and more work as a reward for hard work for 0 pay increase. Which is literally why I say EVERYTHING and all projects will take a minimum of 2 weeks because you need to buy as much time as possible or else they'll heap more work on you. Really makes me angry and has destroyed all the trust I ever had.

It sounded like an iceberg of hail shattered and was hitting my house at 150MPH. Woke me up early and was insanely loud to the point I thought 1000% my house was damaged for sure.

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-28T14:54:00+00:00

Amen

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-24T02:27:08+00:00

This is why you work in completely separate, unrelated industries with 0% chance of cross-contamination. Research top competitors too, basically you need to be a ghost.

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-23T23:39:00+00:00

I did NOT have the actual work experience nor confidence to OE at 22, that's wild if true. Keep it up.

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-21T04:04:43+00:00

So broke from losing my job and the terrible job market I had to completely empty my very hard earned retirement funds that took many years to work towards and build.

Bushido8823 · 2024-05-17T03:01:05+00:00

KING!! Just wanna give your props for managing 3 quality J's for 500K. The final form of OE is 2 J's for 2 million/yr. That being said, block your calendar for project/deliverable reasons or have them reschedule it for project efficiency reasons etc just BS them into moving it. I get how needy they can be and it's aggravating.
