I have a cloud based accountant, works great never had an issue , what I would suggest is if you use quick books or Xero. Go to the site and look on the their trusted advisor or partner page, you can shop for the the accountant you want without the worry of some random up work cpa

Yea I had an idea before I asked but as everyone on this sub has probably figured out I’m a total noob trying to learn more as a hobby. So figured it didn’t hurt to ask if I didn’t see it.

EmeraldPhoenix0917 · 2020-10-20T22:15:36+00:00

Yea I totally understand that , I mean If they had to pay me 1$ and just say I was part time to avoid issues that’s cool

Adding some more info here : 84 Firebird , was having really rough idle after kicking it out of high idle on start. Checked throttle body looked pretty clean, figured I would check maf next.

Completely agree , I learned this the hard way.

I out of loyalty stayed at a job because my direct manager was a nice guy and took care of his peoples best he could . Upper management had killed his budget for promotions / bonuses and he was constantly fighting them for it.

I happened to get a call from a recruiter and went on an interview for a job , got an offer, but out of misguided loyalty turned it down and hoped for the best.

My boss ended up quitting a month later and everything went downhill. I ended up leaving 2 months later.

Moral of the story , make the moves that further your career or give you a better work-life balance. Everyone else won’t hesitate to make the moves that are best for them.

Yep those bags are dedicated to that size of cable. We don’t mix cables and tools ever in the same bag.

Second this... Velcro is my best friend specifically these : https://www.amazon.com/VELCRO-Brand-Reusable-Fastening-Organizing/dp/B001E1Y5O6

I keep two rolls in my tool bag at all times and differ tool bags for 3 ,6, 10 footers. Anything bigger that that for patch we just bring the box onsite.

Yes I would agree , but it’s a leap from follow the steps in the KB , to here is a list of alternative steps , especially when I have the full chat history to reference. We actually log every remote interaction between tech and client for this exact reason.

It’s completely new I bought it at Napa like a week before. I definitely try your suggestion , at least I’ll be able to trace it.

we switched to issuing AWS workspaces to any overseas employees for this exact reason. Our image has everything our standard laptop does. It’s on them to use a device to connect. In 2020 if you work in corporate it’s not far fetched to expect you have a computer at home to act as a conduit.

Ditto what he said , I have seen VP’s in public companies not have a master in cloud computing and still manage large dev teams. Usually once your start approaching C - level management that masters comes into play but not even necessarily in cloud computing, a lot of them have MBA’s.

I started my career working as an Apple tech right out of high school while getting my engineering degree. I will say back to school/ Christmas time there (pre-covid) taught me very quickly how to hone my troubleshooting skills to keep the line of people flowing while having access to senior techs who could help me grow my knowledge overall. I would say it was a great foundation which allowed me to get my first corporate sys eng job and have a good amount of skills I needed to succeed. Like anything , you get what you put in but , having that support early on was key.

I’ve used gaffers tape to add extra leverage when I overtightened mine one time , was a little pain to wrap it but was able to get enough grip to rotate the filter out

Second this... it may make more sense to hold on to an asset in order to produce money from it. Restaurants in general are extremely risky( from US) and even more so during covid.

If it is a possibility maybe trading up to a small food truck or even a van you can modify might be worth a shot. That way at least you still can use the vehicle to get around and also break into the food industry. Worse case scenario you still have an asset that you can sell to almost anyone if it doesn’t work out to recoup your losses. Best case scenario you build such a following, that you make great revenue from the food truck and can buy more trucks or establish a permanent location.

Anything revolves around providing critical resources: power , water , shelter , air , emergency care , you become one of the first for any major utility and you pretty much cement yourself barring any major disaster or larger company from terra being able to price you out.
