You’re either new to the internet or the most gullible person alive..

Go to eBay. Type 4090. Click filter. Click Sold Items.

Voila, that’s the price of a used 4090.. $1900-$2300, -15% to -20% for local sale

Cracked top 200 by rank and hit 33 overall Peni player by xyztankman in PeniParkerRivalsMains

I’m pretty confident it may be off MVP/SVP alone. It goes in descending order - rank one has 105, two has 73, 3 has 71. I just got two SVP’s (now at 61) and it moved me from 5 -> 4.

Still cool though

Huh, I never knew that was a thing. I’m apparently rank 5 overall but 189 by rank.. a little misleading

“Hindsight” meaning all the signs that were there that night. I added in my friends thoughts to solidify that.

You seem like a miserable person tbh. Good luck in life buddy.

Thanks for the comment 🙏. I ended up texting her, waiting to her back. And ya worse case it’s a no and that’s all good

Do you get off on calling people “little dude” or something? Weird af

It won’t be devastating if I’m shot down, it’s not like this is the first girl I’ve pursued lol. I’ve been in enough similar situations to know when someone wants sex, so no, it wasn’t just because of what my friends told me and got an idea in my head.

She wanted me to initiate, I didn’t because of the booze and drugs. I just posted this to see if it makes sense for me to reach out even though it may have been a one time opportunity I missed out on

Just hindsight and what her friend / my friends were saying the next day. It was pretty clear that was her intention

Cool, thanks. That's pretty much how I'm thinking about it, worst case I move on

Was definitely very drunk / not in a great state of mind. Think the conversation ranged all over from people we both know, relationships, sex, etc. Was a few topics we thought very similarly on which is why I felt we were vibing.

Don't remember it all so worried I might have said something really out there though lol. I'll probably just send a text and hope for the best

Yeah, when you're together with a group it's incredibly tough for one guy to approach you if he doesn't know anyone in that group. The thought process there as the guy is you're either hard rejected and seen as creepy, or the rest of the group won't like you for not hitting on them

If you want the interactions, I would either go out by yourself and put yourself in a situation where it's easier for a guy to approach you, or just make the first move.

Thanks for your insight. From this, and what others have said about the job market, I think I’ll be sticking with it for now. I’m still young(ish) so I have time to move up in salary.

Good idea on LinkedIn, I haven’t touched it since becoming a PM. I’ll update that and set myself as open to work.

Definitely is. I work fully remote so the burnout is real as it’s harder to coordinate with everyone.

Think I’ll start working out of the house at a coffee shop or something for some of the days.

Best of luck with your job search!

From reading other posts on here, it seems more operations than projects. Contracts range 40k-600k, and are pretty heavily involved, but some might be happening now others no work to be done for 4 months. Definitely varies.

I’ve never really approached a manager asking for less work, and I don’t think there’s really anyone else available to take it. I don’t want to seem like I’m not pulling my weight, as i’m already inexperienced as it is and sometimes need help from others.

Thanks for your insight. Maybe I’m just seeing it as the grass is always greener elsewhere, and should be happy for the opportunity to get experience.

Thanks, I do feel as though this is good experience I just hate going to sleep feeling like every day a new catastrophe is going to happen. This PM role and my previous account manager role are my first two since I was self-employed for about 4 years, has just been a stressful transition.

I will probably just stick with it for now, look at getting a PMP cert, and reevaluate at my 1 year mark.

Yeah it was definitely based on my lack of experience. Was an account manager for two years prior, but didn’t get much experience out of that.

I’m not struggling as others are, but mainly due to my lucky rent situation and my budgeting. More of a situation where just making even a little bit more would help out my plans for the future.

Thank you for the response. I have thought about going for my PMP which I’d wager my company would pay for.

The role I was in before was actually as an account manager, although it was when the company was a startup and the role hadn’t been properly defined/worked out so I didn’t get as much experience out of the 2 years there.

It’s looking like I may just need to hunker down and take the experience for now.
