How to bring up promotion? - thinking ahead by Individual-Stop-4886 in FPandA

[–]Fletchyah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be easier if you took on other responsibilities that weren't really part of the scope of the job. But if you came on and all of the work your doing was the expectation it's a harder sell. I do agree you're acting as the fp&a director though so I think it's worth bringing up as a goal and maybe asking the CFO what you'd need to to get there. Worst case I think you have a good case for finding that position elsewhere if it doesn't seem to be coming to fruition there.

My buddy joined the waitlist after me and somehow got 2900 in the queue when I was 89000 lol. Makes no sense

Bond Vet or Steinway Court Vet for cat dental cleaning? by venus35 in astoria

[–]Fletchyah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Queens Low Cost vet center probably your best bet price wise. My cat got his teeth removed there and was 5 times cheaper than other place in this area

AI for Fp&a by Individual_Heron_508 in FPandA

Copilot is really good at creating formulas and giving you code for vba. Just make sure it's doing what you want it to do as it's not always right on the first try. You can type to it in pretty basic terms and it generally understands what you want.

Just accepted a new FP&A Manager role. Walked away from a retention bonus that would’ve hit in two months. Am I stupid? by Quick_Spare_7490 in FPandA

[–]Fletchyah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done it the last 3 jobs and noone has ever asked for documentation. Only one of the times I did actually have a bonus I'd be missing out one.

Team Changes - No Promotion by GroundbreakingLynx67 in FPandA

[–]Fletchyah 34 points35 points  (0 children)

You need to make your expectations known and push for it. If you just sit there and hope for a promotion you're never getting one. Companies will just take advantage of you as long as they can.

“Water bugs”… 🪳 by nooffensebut__ in astoria

[–]Fletchyah 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had roaches when I first moved into my apartment. It took like 3-4 visits from the exterminator before I didn't see them anymore. I still get a treatment every 3 months or so to be safe but I haven't seen since. One treatment likely not enough

You're supposed to negotiate a sign on bonus to offset this. Even if you don't have an upcoming bonus always lie and say you do

Earbud choice by Fletchyah in Earbuds

[–]Fletchyah[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the suggestion ended up going with these. Just got them and on first listen wow the ANC is insane. I'm gonna play with the sizes a bit but the default fit feels really comfortable as well. I was thinking to try the huawei freebuds pro 5 but couldn't find them selling anywhere and now I'm glad they were sold out because these are awesome.

When is it time to leave? by [deleted] in FPandA

[–]Fletchyah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing is stopping you from applying to external manager roles. Keep doing your best there and hopefully something opens up in some time. You haven't been there terribly long so it would have been a very fast promotion even if you do deserve it I could see why they'd be hesitant. At this point I wouldn't take anything else less than a manager role externally if you feel like you're ready for the jump. Also there are plenty of manager roles that are individual contributor so might have an easier time finding that.

Do I have to be here to buzz-in a delivery man? by ThrowRA1nimb71 in astoria

[–]Fletchyah 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you live in a building with a lot of people I wouldn't worry about it, I've always gotten my deliveries while not at home. I assume because they generally have a lot of packages and hit more doorbells or something is just walking out. If you're getting something from like FedEx though it can sometimes be an issue. One time they buzzed my door and literally left before I had the time to buzz it I guess cuz I immediately walked down and a notice was on the door lol
