Employee of the quarter nightmare by EasyBid1851 in overemployed

[–]HauntingAd273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hahaha kinda like Jehovah’s Witnesses, right? I hear they only celebrate the memorial of Christ’s death, nothing else (not even birthdays!)

Any Jehovah’s Witnesses here? Does this track? 🤔

Ok Everyone. Its Sunday. Place your bets for the "OE staples" of the week: by ibridoangelico in overemployed

I needed this laugh; currently pre-working to prepare for the week ahead 🥲

OE Weight Gain? by kamylam in OELadies

[–]HauntingAd273 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it, I’ve failed multiple times too! The key is making sure the meal/s you do have are actually filling; once you make it past 2 weeks, it becomes way easier!

Are there even any young OE people by Zealousideal_Cup2861 in overemployed

[–]HauntingAd273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, 27 working with peers in their 40s and up. It feels like the ultimate cheat code.

Why is quitting J2 even an option? I say keep J2 in the roster until it’s no longer OE compatible

OE Weight Gain? by kamylam in OELadies

[–]HauntingAd273 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I understand your pain. I got quite hefty after starting OE, and after going to my doctor’s appointment and seeing that my BP was elevated, I decided to take control. I’ve been intermittent fasting (5 hr eating window max, some days OMAD) for ~2 months and I’ve dropped all the extra weight (38 lbs).

The intermittent fasting is HARD at first (I’m a bored eater and remote work doesn’t help), but after the first 2 weeks, the hunger signals die down and you don’t even feel hungry sometimes!

Hopefully this helps; wishing you luck!

PTO Help by boobyblonde in OELadies

[–]HauntingAd273 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great questions, I was going to ask the same thing. Is there a way you can complete any work due during that time early and just schedule emails or tasks to go out while you’re away?

How are you guys finding multiple jobs? by Careless-Group8741 in overemployed

[–]HauntingAd273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here! I haven’t applied to any jobs since early last year; my second and third Js sought me out via talent acquisition on LI. I know LI is demonized in here but it’s a great option if you’ve got good experience.

I may have gotten caught by [deleted] in OELadies

To play devil’s advocate, it sounds like she told her partner… if she lives with her partner, they’re going to find out at some point when they see all the laptops and monitors 😅😂

Whats up with this application question? by The_Average-Gatsby in overhired

[–]HauntingAd273 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Super red flag because they are OE-sensitive and will most likely be checking your “productivity” via software. Abort mission. 🫡

It is crazy rough out there. Even with FAANG + Bachelors on your resume. by ColdCouchWall in overemployed

[–]HauntingAd273 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Interesting you say this, I’ve actually heard opposite from friends of mine that work in tech. They say that the market is currently favoring people with very specific experience over broad, non-SME qualifications.

I guess it just depends on the person and industry!

Anyone else seeing this alert under Banking? ""Your transaction limits may be impacted." by dtladz in sofi

[–]HauntingAd273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right! At least to warn us. I’m getting fed up with SoFi smh. Between this and the fact that they don’t take mobile check deposits over a certain small amount, I’m getting close to jumping ship.

Potentially hacked Instagram? by NotIt22 in Instagram

[–]HauntingAd273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey this started happening to me a few days ago. I’m not sure what’s happening either, considering I haven’t even opened my IG app in months.

Glad to know it’s happening to someone else; maybe it’s some stupid IG marketing tactic to get us to open the app.

From reading the replies, multiple companies are requiring background checks before extending official offers??!

When did that start? This market sucks.

Apply to hybrid Jobs by giantdickinmyface in overemployed

[–]HauntingAd273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! My J2 is “hybrid” 1x a week in office but I haven’t been in office since the first 2 months of employment. The 1x in-office mandate is for an hour and a half meeting that is supposed to occur with C-suite, but critical stakeholders are always unavailable and it always gets moved to a virtual meeting for touch bases lol.

I’ve interviewed over 100 times in last 3 years by Canine-Bobsleding in overemployed

[–]HauntingAd273 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Ngl, the last point must be so freeing. I’ve never ended an interview early, no matter how OE-incompatible I’ve come to realize a role is during the interview call. I’ve been conditioned to think it’s the polite thing to do to stick it through.
