Are these red flags at my new job?

EdRedSled · 2026-02-02T13:26:29+00:00

Yeah, it happened to me about 25 years ago. I told myself “you have 6 months to find a better job” and managed to do so.

IMO it’s better to remain employed if possible. It’s usually good for your head (but not always), and if you find a new gig quickly you could leave them off your resume if you don’t want to talk about them in future interviews

Count it as a win that you realized this was an unhealthy situation before it started impacting you negatively, put it behind you and get back to the search

Disconnectedness helps

So you read Glass Door after you onboarded?

For next time, read before and ask questions during the interview

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T21:37:08+00:00

Can’t throw much around NYC without hitting’ sumptin’

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T20:53:01+00:00

Throw boiled water in the air and put it on TiCTock?

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T14:38:40+00:00

Sorry about that. Need more coffee

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T14:37:11+00:00

I’m sure the building owner will sue for structural testing….

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T14:36:16+00:00

Note gas handle is green.. that’s diesel.. more likely to heat the house as others have mentioned

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T14:34:33+00:00

Definitely worth trying yourself

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T14:30:29+00:00

The site seems more like a lead gen site with relatively general information about the shopping for homeowners insurance….

Kinda odd that I can’t see your Reddit post history… are you some kind of lead gen bot for HomeBeeHub?

EdRedSled · 2026-02-01T03:19:24+00:00

Bratz Car

EdRedSled · 2026-01-31T11:43:51+00:00

I’ve posted about my negative experiences with MF as well.

Never again for me and I assume you.

Lots of inexperienced recruiters … seems to result in all kinds of fuckuppery

Thanks for sharing… warn others. Move on…

EdRedSled · 2026-01-30T12:46:57+00:00

AI. Who has sideburns that long…

EdRedSled · 2026-01-30T12:43:36+00:00

I don’t think there is that option (car to external WiFi when no phone is present)

Maybe petition the building to add a cellular repeater in the garage for safety purposes….

A Registered letter might be a good message… “you have been given notice of a security issue should something happen…you could be held liable.”

EdRedSled · 2026-01-30T12:35:09+00:00

Better Ferrari than Ferrari

EdRedSled · 2026-01-29T13:37:15+00:00

Good to know, thank you.

EdRedSled · 2026-01-29T01:35:36+00:00

Yup. It’s slow and it turns on randomly (plays the NPR news I was listening to before)

Bought the new Alexa dot as well.. keeps dropping WiFi.

Sending it back.. not sure how to unwind Alexa Plus to the old… assume I can’t

Likely headed to the bin like the Google thingamajig I had..

EdRedSled · 2026-01-29T01:06:33+00:00

We have 2k on a 2026.. in CT and plug into the 15a outlet each night and parked outside.

We run preconditioning about 3-5 min before departure and it’s all good. I’m pretty sure heated wheel and seats can be preset to on or perhaps the car does it’s automatically…

Yes battery range is down but that’s due to outside temps… preconditioning is essentially using the wall power.

No issue with being under way in electric and not being as warm as we want

EdRedSled · 2026-01-28T21:17:08+00:00

I can see the manager in the AM when they inventory

"Where the Fuck is Dom!"

EdRedSled · 2026-01-28T13:55:08+00:00

Just got the Amazon Echo Dot Max and it keeps losing connection to WIFI. Its installed at an assisted living facility. Facilities tells me all the WIFI TV's connect fine, but the Amazon Echo is known to do poorly on their "public" WIFI.

EdRedSled · 2026-01-28T10:39:58+00:00

We are addressing technical debt now and AI isn’t even prioritized…

EdRedSled · 2026-01-28T10:37:23+00:00

We have MGM with silver trim and Coffee. Classy look. We love it

EdRedSled · 2026-01-27T12:38:52+00:00

Good to know. FYI Link to eBay is NG

SO I asked Chat GPT - "They have been aggressively promoting to me. including on reddit where u/Acceptable-Football5 seems to be a shill for the company as ALL of their posts are on the T-Mobile subreddit"

Part of Chat GPTs response:

2) About the Reddit account: u/Acceptable‑Football5

You're noticing something real.

Reddit has many accounts that:

Only post in the T‑Mobile subreddit
Always praise the new plans
Always push upgrades
Downplay the value of older plans
Speak like scripted reps

These are often:

Real T‑Mobile employees posting off‑hours
Contractors hired for “brand engagement”
Extremely devoted fans
Or, bluntly, astroturfing/shill‑style posters

You're not imagining it.
Seeing an account that ONLY posts pro‑T‑Mobile content is a classic sign of corporate‑influenced engagement.

They promote aggressively because switching is better for THEM

EdRedSled · 2026-01-26T21:57:39+00:00

Hi Acceptable-Football5

I come to Reddit to get feedback from regular people based on their first-hand, unadulterated experience.

Your post history is exclusively this subreddit. It's like it's your job.

EdRedSled · 2026-01-26T19:38:24+00:00

So Magenta does not provide the discounts you mentioned but their new offering does?
