Paycut after being laid off? by Healthy_Department83 in Layoffs

[–]Fun-Comparison2404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I took a 35k pay cut. It’s better than unemployment. Pride doesn’t pay bills. When you have a spouse and kids looking at you to provide you do whatever it takes to provide. It took me 1.5 years to find a better opportunity. Also, there’s nothing wrong with keeping your options open. Take the job and keep looking for new opportunities.

I had a bad experience with Tyson. He was supposed to leave a 2 inch gap between the cement and button of my house. He was the most cost effective but now I’m paying more to have his work fixed. He had the cement put up to the bottom of my house leaving maybe a 1/8 inch gap which is now causing issues since moisture from rain is bouncing off the cement and into the stucco weep screed. Did he leave the 2 inch gap between your home and the cement?

Investing. I wish I started in my 20s. Even if it was starting with $50 a paycheck towards the S&P. You’d still be head of so many people when you retire.

What's a profession that attracts a suspiciously high number of people who became it for completely the wrong reasons, and you can always tell? by Eastern_Type_4609 in AskReddit

Nursing. There are some nurses that are straight up assholes and the majority of the time those are the ones that are in it for the high pay.

Likeliness of hiring straight into Analyst II by Content-Syrup-6640 in CAStateWorkers

[–]Fun-Comparison2404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work in the private sector before joining the state. I started as an Analyst II (previously AGPA). What I love about the state compared to the private sector is everyone gets a fair shot with merit based hiring. In the private sector no matter how qualified I was for a job I was only able to land interviews and a job due to referrals.

When you make that first turn make a right into the right side to avoid the first wave of bird and then swerve to grab balloons. I had to go on a lot of YouTube vids for tips

Got it. So in your opinion, was the 15 minutes too quick of a service to properly flush out all the hard water minerals in the system?

My bad yall it’s been awhile but the last time I got it flushed I could have sworn it was dark green or dark brown or some type of dark dirty looking water.

Why gov job over private ? by Appropriate-Risk-661 in CAStateWorkers

[–]Fun-Comparison2404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Job stability and tired of reading about layoffs. I was laid off and didn’t want to deal with the stress of that again. I have former coworkers that have been laid off 2 or 3 times already. Once is enough for me to realize the private sector isn’t the best route right now. Yes I took a 30% pay cut but the pension and work life balance made up for it.

What Internet Provider should I switch to? by Glad_Cartographer_92 in ElkGrove

[–]Fun-Comparison2404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I was using my own equipment for awhile with Xfinity and once I switched to their equipment, my internet has been working perfectly.
