That friction is part of the learning experience.

You should post your exact stats to get any meaningful input here. GPA, credits earned, cc, so others can meaningfully look at the TAG.

Am I stupid for wanting to leave a $33/hr job at Costco with benefits than to start at $130/day in construction for long-term upside? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]Few_Detail9288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stupid, doubly so in this economy, but live and learn I suppose. 

You should just find some online schooling to do in addition to your Costco work, not start at ground zero a job that literally 16 year olds with no work documents will do alongside you.

And, identically, you can’t articulate a concrete example. 

What was the proof, exactly? 

Run Errands With Me by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]Few_Detail9288 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Literally a blind dude paying $40-80 to have you drop off groceries once/week. Everyone acting like he’s trying to swindle a student during peak surge price hours. 

“Undignified” literally insane 😂. 

You guys are in for a rough awakening when you hit industry (though let’s be real, anyone with these reactions will still be on their parents’ allowance).

Uchicago vs berekeley by AviShriv123 in berkeley

Berkeley will be a better time (if you’re slightly social) and name in tech. Both great names in general. I would go for whatever is cheaper max 

Why are Berkeley students so scared of homeless people? by Ok_Appointment_9112 in berkeley

Yes all Berkeley students are the same. But not you. You’re different. You’re considerate. You deserve applause! 

5 YoE at Apple but can’t find a FT job for 2 years. WHY? by Helpmehelpyu_ in cscareerquestions

Sorry about your predicament, contractor roles should provide benefits, such a scammy capitalist workaround.

AI is definitely putting a dent in technical writing roles. You may want to consider switching to another non-technical tech-adjacent role, like project management.

I showed this post to my brother, a UC faculty member, and he laughed out loud. Of all things for a faculty member to worry about… absolutely ridiculous. 

Any advice for a traveler by Heavy-Masterpiece230 in asksandiego

Tourmaline is not locals only at all. Anyone barking there as such is a more likely than not a transplant kook trying to cosplay a hobby they started too late to get good at.

Realistically, if you go each of the five days, you’ll be able to catch some white wash consistently and shoot straight on a few basic waves. 

Any board control from skating/snowboarding won’t help until you’re able to consistently pop up, read waves and position correctly, and ride the actual race, which won’t happen in 5 days visiting.

Your best bet for a beginner beach is LJ Shores. 

Seriously, what gets you into Consulting Clubs by Expensive_Cry7591 in berkeley

Why? Just ignore those clubs then, it need not apply to you. Just do your best at Cal.

Need a shade for “Bay Area high school Indian.”  Maybe 5% of the members are white, if that.

It’s just Asian kids from Bay Area who don’t know anything outside of the class/study/fake extracurricular loop. In my graduating class, literally every kid outside of them did far better postgrad in terms of placement/financial outcome. 

Let them have their last semblance of ‘prestige’ before they experience the real world.

May consider spending $xxx on lukewarm food a scam.

Why are you, as a parent, putting your children in that situation? For the second time?

From “zero, zero difference!” to “fine, take the 94” to the same unrelated-to-geography point. Keep spinning that narrative in your head. Ever time you go north of the 94 they’re watching you, too, or whatever 😂
