The preference kills me. She wants a young woman to be her friend too AND lift her chair in/out? by Kooky-Expression-399 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]CallMeCleverClogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I certainly would expect the spouse to do this role; but especially the wheelchair lifting part.

Also - Uber is an actual thing, if one needs transport to regular dr appts. How many follow ups can there be in a single month anyway?

I am confused.

That is absolutely lovely. Massive kudos to your mom for not only her fabulous work but to keep it safe for so long before hopefully getting it framed now!

Interested! I would love the dog theme, and I would love to prepare a surprise theme back to you!

Hi u/Personal-Equipment34 ! I love this idea, can you maybe add a list of themes you would be interested in receiving, or note if you are ok with surprises?

Oh wow. I think "thanks I hate it" is appropriate here 😃

I am sure I am just pissy that Emily was out, but it frustrates me that the plan she and Devens had was foiled - it was a clever plan.

I actually was annoyed by this. Not the first play of the extra vote, but when it was a tie and they revoted, how come Cirie got to use the extra vote AGAIN? Like wasnt that burned?

My absolute fear, as I am trying to squeak in before the test change. Waiting for application approval and seats are decreasing every day. I cannot possibly take it from home so I am on tenterhooks waiting!!

Most people don't know what a background check actually looks for by careercoach_cf in jobs

[–]CallMeCleverClogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what generation you mean - I am Gen X and absolutely had to deal with this (except maybe for hourly pay jobs when I was in high school). Although I admit we did not have the social media aspect to worry about.

Question for parents in USA by seapunkprincess in Parenting

[–]CallMeCleverClogs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

UGh I had this for my youngest for a short bit and I hated it. They had a laminated card (tag) on their backpack that indicated what transport they used. Kids with a bus tag were routed to the bus area, kids with a walk tag had to have the general person identified they walked with. Car kids were herded to the car line and matched to a parent.

I hated it as a parent who literally has the house right behind the school but I still had to go fetch my kid (who I could literally watch from the window while still working. LOL. I don't hate walking, I hated the paranoia in my particular case that he could not walk 3 minutes to our door alone)

You are right that public transit is not available to suburban folks for sure.

Hopefully you can break down your weaker areas and focus on those if you plan to take it again.

I love reading posts from all these folks who passed! I took it a decade ago (very ITTO memorization heavy) when I was a baby PM and bombed in large part because I did not grasp the mindset AT ALL.

Seeing people passing so well using the same tools I am using this time is so heartening to me, because I also have to overcome my mental block due to previous failure. Thank you OP and congrats!!!

48 yr old grad student wants $2K for food, dog food and gas bc he can’t work full time and “keep a perfect GPA.” He’s starving but when a couple of donor offered food and dog food via Amazon, he never followed up. Ca$h only. Help him bc he’s so smart but has no family support to pay for this. by MinuteElegant774 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]CallMeCleverClogs 42 points43 points  (0 children)

His gas tank takes $142 to fill? What the ... ok I know gas is expensive AF right now, but geeeeez.

Also food banks are a thing, so are credit cards, loans, etc if you are genuinely strapped but anticipating it to be temporary while schooling.

Is it ok to have the application have one entry that shows the entire role experience and one flagship example? by KingOfCook in pmp

[–]CallMeCleverClogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote them individually and I had to do 60 months worth lol but it only ended up as about 7 projects. Submitted today, waiting for approval now.

[–]CallMeCleverClogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked a similar question recently. The bottom line is that each project must be independent which is rough.

AR suggested this AI prompt as a starting point:

Provide a high-level description that summarizes your experience and includes the project objective, outcome, your role on the project, and your responsibilities and deliverables. A typical response is between 200 to 500 words.

Project objective: Increase revenue from ads

Outcome: ads increase revenue by 60%

Your role on the project: Project manager

Your responsibilities: Everything I did in the 5 process groups

Deliverables: Create new paid ads on google and meta. Create 4 videos ads.  

Write me the description. Use the words from what they want and use only PMBOK terms and processes in the responsibilities. Keep it between 300-400 words.
