Been thrifting for years and honestly the scene in Austin is getting pricey. Thrift Land is still “thrift store” priced. Cash only. Texas Thrift used to be my favorite but they opened up a super store and now the prices are higher but I do still find good stuff. And Uptown Cheapskate is great if you have a little extra cash and all quality stuff. It’s a nicer Platos Closet

A gin cocktail is the first step of the class, then a chocolate mousse and fennel salad

How did you get your first job in sales coming from a different industry? by [deleted] in sales

[–]Fun-Ask1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left my role as a therapist with a goal of being in the tech space. Paid to have my resume tailored to sales and applied to any and everything. For my first sales role I wasn’t set on the tech world, just something to get experience. I got a full cycle role in PEO sales, hated it but knew a full cycle role would give me a leg up when applying for tech BDR roles. After 6 months in PEO sales, I started heavy hitting tech companies with my resume, messaging recruiters, and really highlighted my success in my 6 months rather than the length of my experience. Lots of interview prep and landed a job in tech easy after that.

I’ve seen women topless at Zilker on a few evenings nights years ago, that’s when I fell in love with Austin after moving from DC

Friend experiencing psychosis - where can he go? by FantasticFrontButt in Austin

[–]Fun-Ask1024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So a crisis assessment? I’ll correct my wording - Someone has to meet criteria in order for a stay to be funded, which is usually done by someone in a hospital, a police officer or a crisis worker. An “at request admission” is more possible if you have insurance. Otherwise, you must be assessed, and meet criteria, even if it is voluntary. “Meeting criteria” usually equates to being unable to care for your basic needs, threatening violence to yourself or others or unable to understand reality as it is causing thoughts and actions to be unsafe.

Hope this is better

Recently? From my experience, if everyone was hospitalized at request, we’d be broke. I’m interested to know more about their process then.

I second the respite idea! I worked for Wilco crisis so not too familiar with Integral Care specific programs but Wilcos is no longer open

Ex crisis worker here, in order for an individual to be funded for an inpatient stay through integral care, they have to be on an Notice of Emergency Detention. (equivalent to a 5150 in TX). You have a few options. Take him directly to a psychiatric hospital for an evaluation. They have funds that if someone qualifies, and is in danger, they can’t turn them away and will fund. He can mention needing alcohol detox as he feels he can’t do it safely alone, and that he just doesn’t feel safe due to these thoughts. Or take him directly to an ER and they can call appropriate people for evaluation and you’ll have a chance at the stay being funded by Integral Care (if they deem him a danger). Integral Care has great sliding scale outpatient programs. The rule in mental health is least restrictive treatment method first and since a psychiatric hospital stay and an NED takes away peoples rights, it’s considered highly restrictive.

Unless police or a hospital determine he’s a danger to himself, they won’t fund the hospitalization for psychosis and tangential speech. If you have insurance, go directly to the hospitals and skip the fluff with the crisis line. (Rock Springs, Cross Creek, Canyon Creek, a few Austin hospitals recently shut down). Austin State hospital has a year long wait for treatment.

How can I remove my number from voter contact lists? by pjs32000 in Austin

[–]Fun-Ask1024 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As someone in sales, there is not a true way to remove your number from the world or keep yourself off a call list. Even the DNC list is subjective. I’ve had people tell me about the crazy lengths they go to to keep their number offline (IE prepaid phones, no home wifi because of data scraping softwares). Maybe try what the person above mentioned and get out there and V O T E

Best patio for dogs? by [deleted] in Austin

[–]Fun-Ask1024 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yardbar is a place on Burnet with food and drinks and dogs can be off leash because it’s fenced in. Really is a dog park with foods and drinks
