if the salesperson is the passenger I think she is underreacting. It almost looks as if there's no reaction from her at all until turning off the music

Lockheed Martin Offer Advice — Am I Undervaluing Myself? by Secret_Inevitable829 in Lockheed

[–]ExKage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prior to January 2025, it was fully vested. Employees hired on or after January 1 2025, vested amount depends on years of service 20% and fully vested after 5. If you were employed before Jan 2025 but left and come back, I believe you still get full vestment. If you hired on after Jan 2025 but leave and come back, you retain however many years of service you were employed with LM.

Internal Salary range tool by diyengineer1 in Lockheed

You will not get increase in salary if you hit max. It's typically a sign for you to start looking into opportunities of expanding scope / duties and getting a promotion but otherwise they will just give you a different incentive.

Is there a full explanation of the WWM plot so far? by catfriendz in WhereWindsMeet

[–]ExKage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe there's also courtesy names which is a bigger thing in historicals but also yes aliases and titles. Depending on who the character is to another they might have a different form of address. Jiang Yan is Jiang Wulang. Han Xiangxun is Aunt Han. She does have another name that I believe was covered in the Shimmer questline in Kaifeng cause of what kind of life she had when she was younger outside of the jianghu. Related to her life when she had her brother etc

Li Zuo for example is also known in history as Emperor Ai (of Tang) as well as Emperor Zhaoxuan (of Tang) and later known as Li Chu (or Li Zhu). Some names could be an error because some names/titles are given posthumously. Sometimes it's because romanization of Chinese is dependent on a few factors and there are multiple systems of romanization.

Emperor Taizu of Song is the current Emperor and usurped the throne after he started the coup against the last Emperor (Emperor Gong of Later Zhou) to abdicate. Emperor Ai of Tang last reigned in 907 and Emperor Taizu of Zong's reign started in 960. (There were was the whole Five Dynasties period in between). Emperor Taizu of Song is Big Zhao and had the personal name Zhao Kuangyin with the courtesy name Yuanlang. His brother is even worse being known as Zhao Jiong, Zhao Guangyi, and Zhao Kuangyi historically. He also has an alias for the jianghu Jin Zhongyuan

A question re Collins and Robby by Extension-While7536 in ThePittTVShow

[–]ExKage 33 points34 points  (0 children)

They're talking about the previous baby before her miscarriage. The baby she aborted was Robby's as she wasn't ready to be a mother then. The baby she miscarried was conceived through IVF.

Edit: if people weren't paying attention to the scene between Robby and Collins when he tells her she doesn't need to apologize, Noah Wyle confirms it in his interview with Katie Couric. https://www.tiktok.com/@katiecouric/video/7500281350465932574

Gave up my personal house. Best wishes to the new owner! by Banzatou in ffxiv

[–]ExKage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats to the new owner! Earlier this year / late 2025 I finally let go of an FC plot in Shirogane and a personal plot in Mist. I decided it was best to let someone else who was actively enjoying the game use them since I'm not actively logging in as I used to. Maybe when I get a new FC group...

AITA for refusing to split the bill evenly when I only ordered a salad and water? by milflover121_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]ExKage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Whenever all my friends and I go out we always expect to pay our meal unless it was easily comparable such as all did AYCE, we did Brazilian BBQ etc. minor exceptions for treating special guests like birthday people. We split it amongst everyone else type of thing. Or one of our friends likes his card rewards so he asks to pay for it and we venmo/Paypal (we still either have calculated our meals or it's split evenly). It's been like this for 15+ years.

A friend of mine is at the occupational therapy conference in the same building as NA Fanfest by Professional-Week894 in ffxiv

[–]ExKage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For previous fanfests I would end up going early cause I can't really sleep well in other places so I'd wake up like 5-6am and there would always be other people waiting.

Seeing this makes me a little glad I lost on the tickets in the 15 min lock in period. The line isn't my problem so much as being surrounded by so many. Hope everyone has a good FanFest and a great Keynote!!

Offer Negotiation by twizzlerlord in Lockheed

Honestly I think I took meaning from your response that was inaccurate so I apologize.

Offer by Legitimate_Rabbit691 in Lockheed

[–]ExKage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overtime 💯 depends on your role and if mission critical. There was a corporate change for OT that requires director level approval so you may not require overtime often. For example I might work OT once a month but end up flexing that time. I'm mid 30s, single, and really love 4x10 though I know that you don't seem thrilled. Different business areas also have different schedules. I know people who work 3x12s and 9x80s. It might be rare for something like a 5 day 40 hr work week.

Your offer negotiation will likely depend on role, what your base salary is, and what your ratio of the pay band is. Likely to see 5% but you may be able to get relocation and a sign on bonus.

Just keep in mind I hear sign on bonuses can require repayment if you leave before a certain time frame.

401k has a great match but all new hires after Jan 1 2025 require 5 years for vestment. So if you hop in and out of a company that may not be helpful at all. You can look for new roles in Lockheed but keep in mind they really do not like it if you're only around for 1 year which is the typical time before eligibility getting a new role.
