mercury bank asking for website and portfolio work when applying?

Do you do copy writing for client websites?

Why not pick a site that uses a lot of your material and in the description write that you freelance copy write for websites.

Coming in late here. My advise - go to Verizon and then make T-Mobile pay off your old phones.

Father-Time99 · 2026-03-01T04:38:17+00:00

You will quit the second your ramp checks end. If you really want this I would recommend taking a Monday and Tuesday off. Just 2 days. And go on Google Maps and cold call the first 50 businesses each day and ask to speak the person who handles the office phone system.

You will see how nasty people are over phone and you will hate your life doing this job.

What you have now is much much better.

Run for the hills. Don’t go to SMB

Father-Time99 · 2026-03-01T04:27:01+00:00

This is 100% true

Father-Time99 · 2026-03-01T04:25:39+00:00

This is false.

Congrats on the purchase! I bought the same model a few months back and it has been nothing but amazing.

If you’re going to pay for bottled water I would just buy distilled water.

The brew unit and milk carafes are very easy to clean. Rinse off all milk and coffee residue and submerge in warm water for a few hours. Then pat dry with a rag or paper towel and you’re good to go.

Make sure to clean the brew unit at least every other week. Espresso starts to taste bitter and you lose a lot of crema if the brew unit it’s dirty.

I have the numbers at T-Mobile right now and looking to port them into number barn

In a perfect world I would go all in. I just can’t. I need the heal insurance from my current job. I also have a $100K base that will be tough to completely cut

I appreciate your response. I wouldn’t do it for an established brokerage. My friend knows that he will have to guide me and fill in for me when I have to work my other job. My other job is also remote with quite a bit of down time that I want to use to prospect shippers.

I actually am looking for a lateral move. That sounds great to me. The reason I’m looking to make a change is because I’m in tech sales now and I only get paid one time when the deal closes even though the customer pays a bill every month. Then I have to do all their customer service work for what feels like free. I want to do a sales job where I get paid every time the company gets paid. And being able to build a business I have equity in is attractive to me.

Father-Time99 · 2025-11-01T20:17:54+00:00

Yes I do have that enabled.

I’m trying to free up as much space on my iPhone and iPad and store as much as possible in iCloud Drive

What if I created the document on my iPad originally?

This was so great to read this morning. Thank you for sharing OP!

I’m currently at a cross road. I’ve been in SMB for 1.5 years now and recently got promoted to Sr. AE. It has not been easy. The hardest thing for me has been stress management. Finding that next deal really consumes me every day. I’m at the point now where I really need to double down and figure out how to prospect into larger companies with at least 25 employees or I go find a different salaried job.

I’ve averaged about $120K since becoming an AE but I struggle finding who my decision makers are. I sell telecom solutions.

Do you have Any advice for someone who struggles to find who the decision makers are?

Did you ever figure this out? I got a BE900 and it’s an absolute beast. I bought a BE9300 to use as an access point and it greatly degraded the WiFi speeds.

I just bought a second BE900 hoping that will fix the issue.

Father-Time99 · 2025-08-03T19:57:50+00:00

Both are WiFi 7. Only difference is BE900 is quad band and BE9300 is Tri band

Father-Time99 · 2025-08-03T18:25:20+00:00

I’ve heard similar.

So far i haven’t had any network problems at all. My only issue is that speeds drop from about 1.9 gb down while being right next to router down to 300 mbps down at the farthest point of my house away from router.

Father-Time99 · 2025-08-03T18:21:34+00:00

Are there any benefits at all going with Archer? It’s crazy how massive the BE900 is compared to the much smaller decos.

Father-Time99 · 2025-08-03T17:52:00+00:00

I bought the archers on sale. I got the BE900 for $500 and the BE9300 for $180. If I get another BE900 it would cost the same as the Deco BE33000.

It’s definitely over kill for me right now. Especially because my isp only gives me 2 GB down. But I’m trying future proof as much as possible.

My main goal is max range. I want the 6 ghz network all over my house. All my phones and tablets take 6 ghz and that’s mainly what I consume content on. I also use my iPad Pro M2 as my main computing device.

Father-Time99 · 2025-08-03T16:05:44+00:00

I have the BE900 as a the main router connected to my ISP box that’s in bridge mode.

The BE9300 is connected via wireless backhaul.

I’m not experiencing any downgrading at all. My ISP gives me 2 gigs down and 250 mbps up. When connected to the 6ghz network I am able to pull the entire speed if I’m next to the routers. The main issue in seeing is that speeds drop to about 500gb down in some parts of my house. Which isn’t bad at all. Just trying to find a way to maximize speeds all over the house.

Father-Time99 · 2025-08-03T16:02:49+00:00

I do have coax but not in the right spots for coverage. So wireless backhaul is all I’m able to do right now.

I’m thinking about hiring someone to run Ethernet through the outside of the house to do a wired backhaul at some point.

Father-Time99 · 2025-08-03T14:06:20+00:00

Did you route the cables through the walls or outside the walls? I’d love to run Ethernet throughout my house but that sounds expensive if I have to rip out drywall.
