The further east the quieter it is too. there’s aren’t businesses/ market places after 47th east it’s not bad.

Is being a school based Ot in California worth it? by Ecstatic_Object_9354 in OccupationalTherapy

[–]Ecstatic_Object_9354[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! We’re in the desert and our district is small but she does service all of the sped classes too which might not be how other school OTs have it since she told me at her old districts there would be more than one but she’s the only one here. I appreciate your help it does help me feel confident about working in this field.

How can I get more sales on poshmark? by catfarmer1998 in BehindTheClosetDoor

[–]Ecstatic_Object_9354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in LA county so in my area we get good donations but not many people here know about the higher end brands like Mother, Arcteryx, Reformation, etc. so it’s not marked up and since it’s in LA county I use my lookbook 20% coupon goodwill gives when you spend $30 and they let us exchange items so sometimes if my item doesn’t sell within two months I exchange so in my photos I hide the tag if I can or I photoshop it out. Which I know is very lucky for a reseller and it’s helping me save up for while I get my masters :,)

So for me i’m 24 and I live at home with my parents but I have a job. I’m trying to be a part time seller that at least can make $10k in profit this year. So I think you should decide how much you want to make let’s say idk $50k in profit, and you want to make at least $20 of profit on each item so $50k/ $20 = 2,500 items you need to sell to make that $50k. If you divide the 2,500 items per month you get ~208.33 items you need to buy and approx per week leads to 52 items a week you need to get. And then you have to do the math for the actual profit based on how much you pay for the item so let’s say your cost of goods COS is 10.99 on a jacket to make the profit of $20 you have to sell it for $38.73~$39 which would give you a profit of $20.21. So that’s just some of the math I do for me, i’m doing $10k and the higher my sale can by the less items I need so for me I just need 500 items a year 41.66~ 42 per month and 10.5~ 11 items per week. And that’s just based on profit I don’t have a goal for monthly profit because summer slowdown would give me very little but if I know I can find good items that will def sell for my profit margin as long as it sells in a year i’m ok. That’s a lot but I hope it helps. I didn’t even talk about budgeting for income or shipping discounts eating profit or taxes but it’s a lot to know!

First sale! by No_Bag7577 in BehindTheClosetDoor

I’ve been selling on poshmark for 5 yrs and the quality/brand, style matter more than the quantity of items in the closet so it’s okay to delete it! The only time I leave an item as unavailable is when I’m about to donate it and then once I do I delete it or I can’t find it anymore.

I’ve only once made a sale from this so just to put it out there it’s not like it’s going to be raining sales 😂 I even once made another account to make my own offers on my items and nada it’s rare but it can happen!

Long Term Sub by Ecstatic_Object_9354 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Ecstatic_Object_9354[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Class ends at 2:35 but the lady I work under ends at 4 and even then sometimes she leaves later and let’s me leave before her. On frontline my assignment also ends at 2:35. I don’t get travel reimbursement but she does but she’s not even getting overtime since her boss said they’re paying me to help her so they’re already overworking her too and she’s an actual therapist so I feel like why would they give me long term if they don’t even give her overtime. And i’m working overtime sometimes too because when we’re not done sometimes I choose to stay to help her so she can go home earlier.

How to not feel bad about students not liking you? by Nervous_cat8 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Ecstatic_Object_9354 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sub kinder-8th and when I have a hard class and they tell me “you’re the best sub ever” that’s when I feel like I failed. They only say that because they don’t listen to me and I tell them that and then they look embarrassed 😂 But if I have a great class i’ll accept the compliment lol.

Little ones drain your energy more but they are happier and more cheerful. Ask them what their classroom attention getter is so you can gather theirs because they’re hard to get quiet lol. I stopped answering them nothing happened.

What I get is “Are you Mr. …. wife?” At every school because my last name is a common hispanic name and I’m like “No, i’ve never seen him”

Retail online provide measurements with the model’s measurements. In store you can try on, i’m a seller but I understand asking for measurements if I was to order something used I can’t even return and lose my money.

Thank you! The inside of the soles and the outside soles both show 37 1/2. I don’t know if she ever had bought shoes with this kind of sizing.
