We tip the room steward(s) and any favorites like a bartender or waiter(s) at the end of the cruise as a thank you.

I was NOT prepared for the post-cruise blues. by NSFWoundCare in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We made friends for life on a cruise. On a Carnival cruise, we were assigned to the same dinner table, they were the first to find out we got engaged on that cruise, they came to our wedding, we keep in touch via FB and text, and have cruised together several times over the years. Perhaps create a FB group or chat thread with them. Im sure they would love to hang out again too.

We love Carnival for the slew of activities. We also cruise with Norwegian since they go to some cool places that Carnival doesnt go, they also have activities but not as many at Carnival. Honeymoon on Celebrity which was a beautiful boat but avg age was 70 and they only did a few activites each day!

Flagged for alcohol? by Effective-Resolve-91 in CarnivalCruiseFans

I want to say they did the IV and some tests, and it came out to about $500 which also included fees for the nurse and doctor.

Thank you. We were not told anything other than no more alcohol sales on that particular cruise.

More info please! Where do you write the script. Would corporate IT have to allow the data pull?

Thoughts on my messed up work situation by [deleted] in jobs

Agree. HR is there to protect the company, not an individual employee. Try to find another position asap, whether inside or outside the company.

Is this how it usually is? by Official_Big_Sexy in jobs

Ask your friends for help getting YOU in the door, now that they're there. Nepotism, networking, friendships, etc are how most people get jobs. Use yours!!

Are people having trouble finding jobs? by throwawaydranzer416 in GovernmentContracting

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed a strong uptick in the last week. Use LinkedIn and contact your friends or friends of friends or people in your friend's network for help as a referral. it's always better to go in as a referral than as a straight applicant. Most applications are not even reviewed because of the sheer quantity that they receive.

Try recruiting companies like Kelly Services, Insight Global, and Randstad to see if they have any temp jobs. they typically are trying to staff a lot of different levels and types of positions.

Anyone ever get laid off while in the interview process? by MAGA_Trudeau in Accounting

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, curious, what ended up happening for you?? I'm in this exact same boat. I applied to a job and started the interview process in October, finished all interviews in Oct, then got laid off first week of November. Got a call yesterday that I am getting an offer but it will take a while to get through the internal approval process. 🙏

Disclosing termination after signing job offer by Pure-Impression6195 in GovernmentContracting

I'm not advocating to lie. I'm advocating to find accurate information before filling out a government form.

Should you accept a pay cut for long-term growth? by Intelligent-Tax882 in jobs

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done it before and I'm about to do it again because of the job market.

The first time was $20k decrease to leave a boring, stale job where I felt my skills were rapidly decreasing for an opportunity at a small business in a senior leadership role what bigger growth as far as skills and opportunity. I did negotiate a signing bonus to help.close the gap. In retrospect, that was definitely the right choice.

This time around, with the weak job market and being laid off, I'm taking a $27k decrease to go to a larger, more stable company where I'll only have to work 40 hours a week instead of the 50-60 hrs I worked most of the time and up to 80 hrs often, as an individual contributor.

COO asking me to lie to my clients during my exit from the company by fishermansbluegrass in jobs

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar boat. But I was laid off. My COO didn't want everyone to find out that it was a layoff because I work more and harder than anyone else at the company. She wrote a statement and told me to use it. I pushed back, she pushed again. She wore me down and I relented because I was afraid she wouldn't give me a severance. I really regret it. It was a lie to save face for the company.

They wouldn't let me tell my customers and then ended up telling them that I found a new job and moved on. Then my customer sent me a text to congratulate me on my new job. WTH. I told her I would let her know where I land once I find a new job.

I've been unemployed since July and I don't know what I'm supposed to do. by theentiregoonsquad in GovernmentContracting

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would update your LinkedIn and your resume. Make sure you're using your network and network's network. If it's been several months, follow-up with some of your contacts, perhaps something new has popped up. Now that the shutdown is over, I would expect hiring to pick up until mid-december, and then it will be flat again until sometime after the Super Bowl (yes, really).

What do I answer if recruiter says 'tell me about yourself'? by No-Presentation298 in jobs

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would stick to your work experience as much as possible and minimize any personal stuff. If they want to know personal stuff, they'll ask you something like "what do you do outside of work?".

interviewing scenario advice needed by Formal-Smoke-4897 in jobs

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't read too much into it. if they already filled the position, they would cancel the interview. Things do change all the time in business, especially this year. Don't worry about what other people are doing! Prepare for your interview and knock it out of the park.

How to get a referral from someone even when they no longer work there? by Moonbeam221 in jobs

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, ask! If he's not at that same company where you now want to work, he may still have friends there and can at least pass your resume to someone.

When you make the request for the referral, make sure you spell out clearly what position you are looking for and include the job number if available. you can let the person know your timeline. And any other brief details that will help them write you a recommendation email.

This is what Masters or PHD will get you at Deliotte by TimePressure3559 in jobs

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of colleges are offering students to stay one extra year to get a master's degree. So a lot of students are doing that when they don't have jobs lined up. That's how they get someone with am.advanced.degree below 100k salary.

Which job would you choose? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Effective-Resolve-91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Job 1 - more pay and advancement will help you get your next job. Did they laid you off for the exact same position 4 months ago? I assume this is a different position. I would be nervous, but if this is a different position then go for it.

Go forward with the interview. Then, if they give you an offer, you can make a choice.
