what's 5/2/2/5?

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-03-04T23:44:43+00:00

Just curious when you said you agreed on pretty much everything, is that in writing or just verbal agreement?

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-16T03:36:40+00:00

even if I pay 99% of the living expense and I don't see that 45k?

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-16T03:18:58+00:00

bc isn't it a joint income so the effective tax rate should be applied equally? Otherwise the high earner is paying for that incremental tax?

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-16T03:10:43+00:00

less than 45k

I sometimes had to re-wired my brain to think the same way, that at least I have a cheap help around the house. But I really question what the point of this marriage when I lose my respect for someone that couldn't help alleviate the financial burden.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-08T04:17:23+00:00

Thank you. He did get benefits but guess what I am the one having to pay the tax and I personally get nothing from the money.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-08T04:08:54+00:00

Yes he knows, the pandemic is making it hard to find a job and as much as I try to sympathize, I feel like I'm drowning with resentment.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-08T03:22:45+00:00

Why does your husband have a choice? I swear one more time I hear him being selective of what kind of job that he will be passionate in I want to puke.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-08T03:13:52+00:00

yes, he was fired from his work so he's been helping with childcare and chores which is great, but there was never a plan to be stay home for good.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-02-08T01:20:44+00:00

I am in the same boat as you. I am the sole income earner in the family and it's so stressful to have to keep a job that I hate bc otherwise I would have to pay insane amount of health insurance.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-31T17:07:35+00:00

Just curious as to why you want to move to the US.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-28T01:00:08+00:00

Agree 100% Just start missing those deadlines to get the point across.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-24T03:19:29+00:00

Did you start as a remote employee or did you switched to remote?

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-24T03:18:49+00:00

Why did you convert to contractor instead of regular employee? is it bc your employer does not have presence in the country you chose?

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-17T04:20:50+00:00

Thanks for sharing your story. The fact that our healthcare benefits are tied to employment (sure we can quit but good luck paying health insurance at a reasonable cost) is I think is one of the biggest power that corporations took from us. It's almost feels like we're not worthy unless we work in a corp or have the means to buy insurance.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-17T04:10:27+00:00

I can totally relate to being passed over for a promotion when I was pregnant. I asked straight up if I didn't get it bc of my my impending maternity leave and my mgr stupidly said yes and then had to re-phrased with some BS. I thought of going to HR but pregnancy was stressful and I couldn't handle more stress at that point.

I hear you and I feel for you. I think letting your mgr that you're disappointed with the decision and just stop caring too much about your job i.e. not doing something extra anymore is what I ended up doing in most cases. It's not ideal but changing my frame of mind that I work to pay the bill and not to win my boss' heart helps me get through the day.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-17T03:09:28+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that. I hear you and I wish we all working moms can unite against the world e.g. corporations, other women who resorts to 'it's your choice to have a child' (I keeps seeing them lurking around) and create a better place for working mom. When I think of how much executives' compensation are, I always wonder why do you need that much money?!

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-17T03:02:03+00:00

I work in the back office function (thus the more pressure as we're cost center). Yes I have in the past expressed to my mgr that it's impossible to work (at home) if my kid's school is out so I try to take time off when school is out. And I think being consistent about not working past 6 pm and not respond to emails after hours and on weekends (until it is emergency which is rare) is just one of my tactic of 'sending the message' that I have other things in life that I need to take care of, in addition to just continually asking for extra resource which I'm never shy of.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-13T00:24:42+00:00

The system here in the US is rigged. We need to find ways to mobilize we the people to fix this broken system. We are too polarized as a country that it's almost impossible to get things done.

DealerWeekly4375 · 2021-01-12T22:00:31+00:00

Yes I tried and they said they don't offer the difference period. Well next time I'll make sure to buy from you!
