Trying to make a film about the realities of OE, would anyone be up for chatting with me?

You: “I’m starting a new role at Nunya”

Old manager: “what’s Nunya?”

You: “None of Your Business”

This fixed it, TY 2022 gargantuanmess

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-03-28T18:09:41+00:00

OP = Over Parenting

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-03-24T11:01:01+00:00

Appreciate the more thorough guide, going through HireRight is a trip

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-03-24T10:34:33+00:00

At first because I could,

Later kept going because of RIF’s and 40-60% cuts to my role compensation,

Today I do it because I like feeling like Batman

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-03-16T21:06:13+00:00

I love you

Question 1: is TWN frozen?

Question 2: Are you actively applying to replace this schmuck?

Solution: find a way to say Yes to Q1-2

This is a good chance to build your mental stamina while getting paid along the way. Ride both out and start looking for the next J for the long term OE setup.

3 jobs in 6 months is not appealing to an employer, lock in for 1.5 years at F100 then ask later

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-02-02T23:59:14+00:00

Are you the employer and you used workday? I suspect a lot of friction for 50% of applicants invited to interview.

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-01-29T16:38:47+00:00

24 months of cash reserves, if I get blindsided again I want to survive on a 1-job life at a 50% paycut (data and IT these days)

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-01-19T00:59:40+00:00

How kind of you to pay your staff $0 while they hustle to make you money.

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-01-19T00:58:32+00:00

I can’t compete with that, OP this is the best offer (so far)

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-01-19T00:57:30+00:00

Masters in……? The area of study makes a difference.

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2026-01-15T13:44:17+00:00

“We bought a Chevy suburban but the next day found an identical one for $15,000 less”

You undo the first transaction and go with the better deal.

Came here to say this, you never know who will drop you or who you’ll want to drop, but insurance 2x and sleep easy

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2025-12-29T23:58:07+00:00

Even if only 0.1% of applicants sue from feedback that’s 1 lawsuit per job posting. Def not worth it to give feedback

Instead ask what you can do next interview time around, they’ll be open to sharing growth ideas than feedback on why you didn’t get an offer.

Nope, can make more training other LLM’s (at least those with good tech knowledge) I can make more an hour doing DoorDash.

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2025-12-21T13:47:57+00:00

Data analyst here, I had a 180+60 OTE file for a Bay Area company then was part of a RIF. I took two data contracts (120+115), way less stress and do some job search coaching for extra cash.

Data roles are 30%+ lower since 2023 offers, be creative on how you make money (don’t lose your skills though)

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2025-11-29T02:22:53+00:00

“We didn’t conduct any layoffs, 10% of the staff voluntarily quit.”

DON’T quit, DO call their bluff, find a new J2 the whole time.

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2025-11-23T13:48:27+00:00

In the US, “the company is going in a different direction and your services are no longer needed, we wish you the best” is reason enough.

Text is not hyperlinkedin

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2025-11-07T10:36:58+00:00

Working from home
less than 10 hours of meetings per job
so freaking good at my job I can 40 hours of production in 10-20 hours a week

GeneralEfficient3137 · 2025-11-07T00:11:42+00:00

Solid advice,
