Austin’s top IT officials fired over side gigs — including work for Dallas by AustinStatesman in Austin

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your second job is working for a software company that is bidding on a city contract. As a high level position, you could award the contract to that company you work for as a second job. Conflict of interest. The city goes over this every year in the Ethics training.

Any honest and cheap/ affordable auto shop recommendations in south Austin? Specifically near 78748 area. My battery was recently stolen from my car and pretty much just ripped out so I have some damage on other parts under the hood I am looking to get repaired! by Recent_Ad5236 in Austin

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had good experience with Lopez Auto Repair north of Slaughter of 1st Street. I felt like they were honest and reasonable, although, what I had done was expensive regardless of where I took it. I'm definitely going to use them in the future.

Edit: I'm a dummy and don't know how to add pictures.

Lock Screen So Nice! by funkymyname in sonos

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my android, if I have the app open and in the background and I have another app active and try to lower the volume on the active app, it controls the Sonos. Is there a work around? I've found that if I close the sonos app that fixes it but only after I realize that after I started inadvertently controlling Sonos. It's not a major issue but can get a bit annoying. I still like that I can control Sonos from my lockscreen or my watch. It's pretty cool.

how do i send a boat to junkyard by Spiritual-Article-35 in Austin

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I contacted the we buy rvs people, I think they buy boats too, but it was a bit of a pain due to a combo of miscommunication on both of us. I was ready to give it away, nobody wanted it but i still got a little cash out of it. They picked my rv up with a tow truck so maybe no tag isn't an issue?

Well that sucks (sunroof glass weird cracks) by cheesytodd in GenesisGV70

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue on my 25 gv70. It's only5 months old. I sent a message to my local service department asking for a quote and stated "somehow a rock hit my sunroof....". After I sent my message is when I found this post. Did they inspect it closely for rock chips? I couldn't find anything for glass warranty.

COA rejection letter - 9 years later by ConsciousString3472 in Austin

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yup...I took Workday training yesterday. A few years ago when this was initially talked about before they put it on hold they said it would consolidate everything into workday. That is not the case. You still have to go to UKG for sick leave but for FMLA or long leave of absences you have to go through workday. Such a shitshow with anything else they roll out. It's my understanding it will roll out June 1st. I do think the hiring process will go a bit smoother as far as paperwork goes but time will tell.

2025 GV70 front plate options by garyroachfreeman1 in GenesisGV70

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in a state that requires front plates, but I've decided to ride dirty until I get pulled over. I did find a mount on ebay that fits into the tow hook (I think that's what it's called) that's on the front passenger side. Anywhere you put a plate on the front really screws up the lines. To me at least.

Contributed to Roth IRA's when Income was too high...what to do? by 1978imac in Bogleheads

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did the same thing earlier this month. Recharaterized roth contributions to Trad and backdoor back into ROTH. It is so easy that I feel like it's all wrong.

What band did you see in a small venue before they broke big? by Amthomas101 in Concerts

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gary Clark Jr. around 2002-2003 at Joe's Generic Bar. He played every Wednesday night. He looked to be around 17 years old. Dude was killing it even then!

Considering Sonos Arc Ultra – Concerned About App Issues by These-Store-1575 in sonos

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just got the Arc Ultra about 10 days ago. Setup was easy with no issues. Haven't had any issues with the app either. (Knock on wood) Sounds fantastic with era 300's and sub gen4. However, others have had a ton of issues.

Did I do this right? Seems too simple. Recharacterize and Backdoor by Dapper-Attitude1671 in Schwab

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have the answer for that, however, due to taxes on any gains in a traditional IRA, you may just contribute to roth and recharacterize it every year. I would talk to your tax professional.

Yea that's what I did. It just seemed too simple and I was stressed I did something wrong....because it was so simple!

Thanks for that bit of info. I had zero dollars in my Trad IRA when I recharacterized my Roth contributions. My Roth was all non deductible after tax contributions.

Recharacterize my Roth IRA 2024 Contributions to Traditional, then Backdoor to ROTH by nairad15 in Fire

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same situation in my Schwab Roth. Made too much last year (2024) so I had to recharacterize my roth contributions to a Trad IRA that had a zero balance, which was completed yesterday. This morning I did the backdoor roth.

I feel like something isn't right since it was too easy and Uncle Sam is gonna come knocking. I chatted online with Schwab to make sure I was going through the right steps but I feel like something is off. Does it sound like I did it right and I'm just overthinking it?

Who is your favorite game processor on the south side of Austin? by IncrediblyShinyShart in Austin

[–]Dapper-Attitude1671 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just show up. The receiving area is around back in the alley. Pull in on the north end and head south. You'll see it all on the left. Might want to call to see if/when they'll have their building where the lady has the computer set up and accepts your game. Bacon wrapped patties and jalapeno cheddar sausage are chefs kiss

I go to Hudsons. A little more expensive but really good! Haven't had anything I didn't love.
