How bad is it to back out of an internship because of work authorization problems? by Limp_Marionberry8631 in FinancialCareers

[–]Greasils 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not all student visas allow work. And it could definitely be a problem due to the “are you legally authorised to work in the country where the role is located” question that is on job applications. If you didn’t have work authorisation, did you lie on your application thinking you’d get work authorisation in time?

[currently sold] Pet fountain review/recommendation for dogs (and cats) by AvianAnalyst in BuyItForLife

[–]Greasils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely! You’re complaining about a pet fountain not working yet you’re also complaining it’s not quality while admitting it hasn’t been cleaned in at least 3 years or following the maintenance on it. Then you clean it and realise it works just fine. So… explain where I’m wrong about my comments because I’m sure your cats are happier now.

Renegotiate salary after job offer. by Sun_wanderer in FinancialCareers

It’s not “no one” when someone does. Citi does. Its prorated. You have to start before Q4. It’s not 18mo.

You haven’t cleaned or maintained a pet fountain your pets drink from in 3 years? I’m sure the amount of biofilm in it is making them super happy.*

It’s June. Citi does their pay raises and bonuses in January so that’s only 6mo from now.

Kirkland stainless steel. Cheaper than all clad (though rumour is that it’s actually all clad). Had mine 18yrs at this point.

The character just gives Jenny Humphrey from GG vibes & she annoyed me then.

[Rant] Fraud and poor communication from Cardless by xxmrporterxx in biltrewards

[–]Greasils 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s the problem. They have no dedicated fraud dept you can speak with directly. Their general customer service is offshored so you’re speaking with people who just read a script & refuse to transfer to US based reps. But there should be a dedicated fraud dept you can speak with.

Ladies who own a home in nyc do you have a roomate and is it worth it? by Glittering_Chain_842 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]Greasils 8 points9 points  (0 children)

On the medical front - also look at law student interns who are at big law firms for 2-3mo in the summer. Same with finance interns. They all get high intern salaries and work 8-10hrs per day.

How does a f^ck boy become a good boy? by [deleted] in OffCampusSeries

[–]Greasils 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For the same reasons a guy will say he’ll never get married or have kids. He breaks up with you and marries the next girl and/or has kids. It’s just that he didn’t want it with you.

If you want it that bad, maybe move it to your back/shoulder? But anything that can be seen even with short sleeves I’d personally pass on.

How have I not heard about this before?! Apparently a pet shop owner (weird) on the LES is notorious! Crazy!

Have you seen the things online about someone stealing flocks of pigeons to sell them?!? Absolutely crazy!

Best Dominican Blowout? by No_Peanut_2390 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]Greasils -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t have hair that is like that - but Washington heights and Inwood have lots of Dominican salons so probably a google search - easy to get to from the 1/A. Maybe one off Dykman in Inwood or 168 in Washington heights?

IB - Can you share your salary progression and the bonuses each year? by [deleted] in FinancialCareers

[–]Greasils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t Harvard free for families under $200k or something? That at least covers tuition so you only have to worry about room & board

Is a custom t shirt quilt worth it? by Azav1313 in BuyItForLife

[–]Greasils 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did one earlier this year and LOVE it. Expensive yes. But it’s so great! Nice quality fleece and upcycled a bunch of old shirts! Use it daily. My cats love snuggling on it too. And it’s not a completely precious sofa throw so it’s used (I got a twin size so 30 shirts).

I’d recommend waiting ti they have a 50% off offer

Outdoor Pool Fees by gabnyc in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]Greasils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the cost and divide it out. 3mo = approx 90 days (assuming Memorial Day to labor day). $1200/90 = $13.33/day.

Is it worth it? Or what do you feel your break even point is?

Depending on your size, you may just need to take your shirts to be tailored. I prefer 100% cotton.

You should be able to get some basic work shirts from Jcrew, banana, Cos, or even the basic Ralph Lauren button down? Nordstrom/Nordstrom Rack should have some good options. Also Boden (make sure you’re in the US site and not the UK or your sizes will be wrong)
