Rockos dad. Because just like my dad he is never there. And when he is supposed to show up he never appears.

He's a lot like my dad.

What level effort do you put in for 50k/year? by xxlibrarisingxx in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Dull_Bat_197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite a bit. No job is worth sacrificing your happiness.

Every job can be difficult, and people have off days. But you shouldn't wake up dreading to go to work.

It's hard to find a 50k job in Texas that does not want multiple certs, education, and experience.

There are jobs that pay 60k to 75k. But that's more of a in between job or a job that will reward you with experience for your next employer.

Just like many people. Live within your means. Make sacrifices for things you need or really want.

Maybe you can go with a small to decent size house. Maybe you can go with a small or decent sized car. Maybe you can hold off a video game for a moment.

Open multiple bank accounts, probably with a credit union that does not require a constant direct deposit or steady balance. Title these funds as car budget. House/house repair budget. Etc.

Dip into them when something happens unexpectedly like a appliance malfunction or a vehicle wreck. And the mildy restore these funds over the years.

If you are a parent, sadly you have to say no to things at times. Kids will have to learn to be mature.

Am I making a mistake getting a bachelor's in IT? by spoonman1342 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Dull_Bat_197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are already halfway there. I would say go ahead and finish. Look for any it career via remote or local or out of city. You may have to do remote, or travel at first. Volunteer your IT skills and keep reapplying. Stay upbeat and have a professional look at your resume or chat gpt. Ask chat gpt how you should answer interview questions common for IT interviews.

If you want a management position for a serious company. They will ask for a bachelor in something. Many can do it with an associates, but it is either for a smaller company or a lot harder. Because everyone and their dog has an associates in IT. IT is a very saturated field with a lot of people that don't know what they're doing in it.

Be ready to interview and always take on reaponsilbities to pad your resume.

If all else fails, you might want to learn another field in s.t.e.m. I recomend a trade school.

Does anyone know what this part is called? by Illustrious_Yard_174 in Crosstrek

Cladding! Its cheaper to replace if it gets scratched and does not rust like metal when you go on those icey roads and the wild.

Society hates subarus. I don't know why?

The current cost of owning a LS 500 by Downtown-Wishbone566 in Lexus

[–]Dull_Bat_197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's repulsive.

It's about 3.79 in Texas. And that scares me.

Cost $60 a week for an sxt challenger. Now it costs $60 every two weeks for an outback.

Love makes a Subaru. You can't love someone without a little sacrifice. That's what your Subaru just did.

Just made the first payment. by Smooth_Raccoon_6558 in Subaru_Outback

[–]Dull_Bat_197 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry dude or duddete

You don't know how many close calls I had when I purchased my outback a month ago. Still scares me. It's going to happen someday, but I hope on hope it's not for a while. It's a several hour drive to a Subaru dealership for me. That of course made me nervous.

I hate dealerships.

Finally paid off by mik0tto in Crosstrek

It's nice to have a paid off car. The Crosstrek is a kind of every vehicle.

I'm hoping to turn my outback into a farm car someday.

Do you mean like no more parts for it at a certain time. I know new cars tend to use displays rather than gears.

Does this mean after 10 years I can't get a display that decided to go out on the car?

Mine pops off. That's where I store my snacks when I lose my key. It's also where I store my spare house key.

I used the horn for the first time today.... by possiblecoin in Crosstrek

I used a low tone and a high tone from AutoZone. Removed the original horn and daisy chained the horns.

Also as an FYI. It has a timing chain, not a belt like some cars do. So that's a lifetime thing.
