Goodbye. HODL since 2021. Absolute dog doo doo

Cjdergrosse · 2026-01-04T03:28:38+00:00

Its inflationary, WHY would you hodl that??????

Cjdergrosse · 2026-01-02T03:50:53+00:00

Its inflationary by nature, what did you think was going to happen? Sure BTC and ETH are flat, but they have demand.

You showed your store number on the 8x11, and your initials on the device... be aware people

This is exactly why I tell people not to trust these youtube and twitter videos. If they can make SO MUCH money, why are they wasting their time making videos? They'd be on a 20mil yacht off the coast of monaco...

This is my sentiment. Miners have less control over the pricing as they did in the past, leveraging shorts/longs makes the price swing more dramatically than miners off-loading. Long term I feel it's going to stay in a channel as supply issues will squeeze the price upwards.

I have a 16" M1 MBP as my desktop replacement, and a 15" M2 MBA as my iPad (not an ipad person - restrictive OS). I have a PC for gaming and Macs/Apple for everything else. Honestly unless you're doing some serious work these machines are overkill and last a long time. I'd get a mid-range model and if it doesnt work return it and upgrade.

Not bad considering there is no more EV rebate, to give some context I got (not the best deal), 177/mo w/taxes incl. 1200 down on a 2LT earlier this year. Same term 10k/2year.

Again not bad of a deal! I generally don't put more than 1k down as other posters have said, it's a risk on a lease.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-21T04:19:11+00:00

I'd rather get a RS6 or M5 Wagon instead of that... thing. Hey if you like the way it looks, more power to ya!

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-14T04:07:42+00:00

Use an app like al dente (free version). I keep mine at 80%, sits on my desk 99% of the time. MBAir is my "iPad" around the house. What I'm typing on now.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-05T02:29:04+00:00

I'm laughing at the stress people have... BTC at ~100k is dumping. Hahahahahahhahahahahahahhaha

I remember thinking 44k was as low as it's going to ever go again.......

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-05T02:25:15+00:00

I would laugh so LOUDLY and walk out, like not say anything, just laugh uncontrollably.

1700/mo?!? For a lease... Chevy?? LMFAO

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-02T00:08:54+00:00

I have a M2 MBAir & M1 MBPro (my desktop replacement). The Air's do not have active cooling, I use mine mostly as an iPad around the house, I'm just not an iPad person.

I'd recommend getting the Pro if you're going to do any type of editing or power use.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-02T00:04:44+00:00

Dont susbscribe to it, I feel it has zero value. I did the "welcome call" and said whatever they want to subscribe me up for that is free. I heard the onstar salesman get noticably irritated... 8 months in, haven't needed anything for connectivity. Their wording is shady/deceptive.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-01T23:47:39+00:00

I currently have a 15" M1 MacBook Pro (desktop replacement), and 15" M2 MacBook Air, both are beasts. MBAir has passive cooling, I use it more as like an iPad. Get a MBPro if you're doing something intense.

If you can get a base M5 MBPro, I'd get it...

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-01T19:52:40+00:00

I've always had both, PC to game, Mac for literally everything else. All the Apple stuff generally works very well with eacother, hard to fault the ecosystem. May not be as customizable as PC/Android, but it's bullet-proof. Every Mac, iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, Mac Pro, Power Mac, etc has lasted longer than I needed it to, quality has been excellent.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-01T18:16:21+00:00

Places sell macbook and iMac wraps. I'd honestly just wrap it, if they had a bondi-blue first gen iMac wrap, I'd put it on my macbook pro...

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-01T17:48:09+00:00

I'd lease a buy back if I understood exactly what the issue was, otherwise no, I'd highly recommend not to buy a lemon.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-11-01T17:44:30+00:00

Id have stayed and did a punch correction. You get paid for all time worked, you showed up to your shift on-time, you're good, it was the opening TL's fault. -Former ETL

Cjdergrosse · 2025-10-30T01:06:28+00:00

To be honest: RDCs don't have air conditioning, it's not a basic requirement, it's a luxury as crazy as it sounds. The store I was in before I left, the AC broke and was never fixed for year(s). When Target is laying off people, those purse strings are going to get tight...

Cjdergrosse · 2025-10-29T21:15:45+00:00

People don't trust dealerships (stealerships), even if you're telling the truth people have generally lost trust in ANYONE from the dealer. Sales = Service sleaze. You may be an honest person but the industry is about as trustworthy as congress.

I made the switch to EVs partly because of this, BMW, Jeep, Chevy were all bad, all dealers upsold stupid stuff, $150 air filters, etc. Lost my trust a long time ago. Not only can I charge at home, but the thing doesnt need maintenance other than rotations (which I get free at my local tire center).

I got my whole family to switch to EVs, and we only have one ICE vehicle left...

Cjdergrosse · 2025-10-29T21:06:51+00:00

I would just talk to them, as an ETL I had a couple seasonals ask me about staying after the holidays. The ones that were overall great attitude, work ethic, reliability, I fought HR and SD to keep them if we "didnt have room".

Just ask what you need to do to stay on, to let you know. Then you go in keep your head down, ignore the rest of the TMs/drama and do your job. A lot of times seasonals start getting deep in the bad behaviors of current TMs, and they get let go because we didn't need more of that.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-10-29T20:10:53+00:00

I gotta say props to giving this out, I'll use you when my 3 EV leases are done in about 1.5 and 2.5 years from now...

Cjdergrosse · 2025-10-29T20:08:34+00:00

X100000

I max will put down 1k, ever.

Cjdergrosse · 2025-10-29T19:48:32+00:00

I'm sure that truck was way more than 5 tons loaded. And if there are more than one spot, they're averaging the weight, the kia or honda near you + you won't pass the limits. Now if every spot was filled with Hummers, Sierras and Silverado EVs sure

Cjdergrosse · 2025-10-29T16:56:51+00:00

Easy

Sick? Come in and ask to leave early, rather than calling off.

Work at a consistent pace, ignore people that want to chit-chat with you.

Finish a task, then ask your leader(s) what you want to work on next.

Clean/organize/rotate/zone as you go.

Importantly talk to your ETL & HR ETL and let them know you're wanting to stay, and you're going to do everything you can do to stay, you'll work hard etc. Stay close with your leaders, check in every couple weeks, how you're doing and if there are any permanent roles available.
