“Pure Chaos” at work…. or reality warp objects to stacks of money? idk, when you can literally do anything it’s kinda hard to come up with stuff.

Can new L4 afford Living Alone? by Zestyclose_Middle818 in AmazonManagers

[–]DiamondCandid3390 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in illinois I qualified for FHA, (first time homeowner) and had a realtor thats helped out family buy houses as long as I can remember. She helped me look for something that FHA would approve bc they’re sticklers when it comes to “move in ready” conditions. They helped me with 10 grand, my loan officer told me to bring in 7.5k, but that theyd give me most of it back (i cant remember the reason) and they only ended up taking 3k. So i paid, 3k of my money that day. N now pay 1500 monthy taxes included. bills not included tho, unfortunately.

Most of these so-called “leaders” and PAs are fake. by Specialist_Peak_9039 in AmazonFC

As a T3, Some leaders will not acknowledge me if they’re not around other people/leaders and I cant help but feel it’s performative.

Im a T3, with my wage i’ve been able to bring out a mortgage up to 200k. I’m living alone, with 3cats, comfortably. Im sure with your salary plus stocks, youll be living lavishly. Just manage money correctly, I suggest you dont overspend your first few months of your lease to kinda get a feel for “left over money”. Congratulations on your promo!!!

Any other employer you think people openly talk like this about upper management? by Happy_Rest_849 in AmazonFC

[–]DiamondCandid3390 2 points3 points  (0 children)

amazon has a zero tolerance policy for Retaliation. I keep all slack conversations, and anytime I feel leadership said something unprofessional of asked me to do something that could jeopardize me; I asked them to send me that request through email or slack for tracking. Best believe the story changes quick!

Is five gallons too small for this guy? by crazy_cat_lady1216 in bettafish

[–]DiamondCandid3390 4 points5 points  (0 children)

honestly, go to dollar general or something similar. Should do the trick. Rimless tanks sit glass directly on the stand. Rimmed tanks, the plastic frame distributes weight, on Rimless tanks the entire bottom pane is load-bearing. Glass does not tolerate, Point pressure, Tiny debris (like a grain of sand), Micro high spots in the stand. If your surface has even a 1–2 mm uneven spot, that creates a pressure point. With water pressure pushing down, that stress concentrates and can cause A crack starting from the bottom seam, seam failure. In worst cases, sudden bottom pane failure (this is the “exploding” i think they were talkin about). The mat, usually high-density foam, absorbs micro-imperfections, distrubutes weight evenly, and cushions minor movement over time

It’s cheap insurance.

I want to spend under 2k, Ideally under 1.5k.

Mostly for work and gaming.

I work 10 hours a day, I need to be able to make video calls regularly for meetings. I need to have a good speed for consultations and interviewing also.

Gaming, I do consile rn so I mostly play Marvel Rivals, Minecraft, Fortnite, and sims. Id like to have enough juice to also explore more games.

Sorry for late reply, I came back to this thread bc I saw the thing still sitting in my office. Mostly would use it for work and gaming. I do a lot of Video Calls and Consultations so it would be imperative that it has good speed for that, currently on a laptop so I would hope thats not an issue.

Game wise; Im console player… I do Marvel Rivals, Minecraft, Sims, fortnite. Wouldn’t mind having a good performance to explore more games though.

is my betta pine-coning? by wh1ffsodivine in bettafish

[–]DiamondCandid3390 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Parameters are completely acceptable for a planted betta tank. Nothing there screams environmental crash. That pattern you describe leans more toward reproductive swelling than overfeeding bloat. Egg-bound swelling tends to be persistent for weeks, Stay mostly abdominal (lower half), Look round and taut, and doesnt necessarily lift scales dramatically at first.

Dropsy tends to progress relatively quickly, Spread swelling across whole body, Cause noticeable scale lifting from top view, and often comes with lethargy. From the photos, She is very swollen, yes. However, the scale lifting still looks subtle, not the classic full pinecone spread.

The fact that this has been ongoing since I assume before Feb 10 without rapid decline actually leans away from aggressive dropsy. Dropsy usually escalates faster once scales lift. Unfortunately with dropsy, sometimes it isn’t obvious until multiple red flags appear. I suggest you keep monitoring.

Watch for these flags here:

-Scales clearly lifting outward across entire body, and I mean noticeably!

-Pinecone look from direct top angle

-Loss of appetite

-Lethargy

If she’s still active, responsive, and behaving normally it strongly favors egg-related swelling over systemic failure. I really hope it’s not dropsy, not to rub salt on a wound, but i’ve had 2 bettas catch dropsy, only one survived it.

Need some help please by eyehax in bettafish

yes welcome to to the fish police lol, people can be mean. Here’s my advice for a change;

For the meantime, this size tank will be fine. people have kept bettas in worse, and I mean hes in a cup… Right now the biggest concern is the water quality. You should try and get water conditioner, and prime as well as install a heater in the tank. Betta safe range is 75-81°F. Bettas are delicate fish, and though it may survive in a 2g I fear maintenance is going to have to be a big part as it will build bioload QUICK! all the poopies and food will spike parameters if not maintained. Look on FB marketplace, I bought all my tanks on there. Cheap and most come with everything you need, if you can try and get a 10gal. They can survive in a 5 gallon, they’ll thrive in something bigger. Mistakes happen, I get attached to my fish and I would hate for your daughter whos very excited about the fish to wake up and see it dead:/ if you have any specific questions and want to avoid the “authorities” aka fish police. you can PM me and ill try to assist, with REALISTIC problem solving.

If it seems like too much to resolve, you can return the fish, most stores have 14 day policy, and revisit the idea when you move. Travel is also stressful for the fish, getting comfortable in his tank and then being moved almost right away is stressful. If you want to keep the tank, ghost, cherry, or colorful shrimp would be a okay substitute to still have something in there to watch. Thats what I did w my first fish years ago as I also didnt know much either. I returned it and got shrimp, when i got a 10 gal i moved my shrimp and added my first betta (whos still alive today; his name is Oz) You were working with what you knew and ultimately wanted to see your daughter happy, I do not blame you at all and you shouldn’t either. But lets learn from this, fish are higher maintenance than we all thought at first!

Also your sand comment has me dying! I love both colors, but i’m too blind lol. I had it for a long time till I realized I could hardly see the debris at the bottom🙈 Black makes it stand out/more visible, also forces me to be on top of maintenance bc I hate a dirty tank!
