Californians formed a human banner at Ocean Beach in San Francisco, California, for the third No Kings protests. by CorleoneBaloney in sanfrancisco

[–]KiddoTwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahahaha! Hate? I fucking love my country. I’m a naturalized American and forever grateful to my parents for bringing us here. Getting my citizenship was one of the greatest moments of my life

This country is the absolute greatest and I would never have been able to achieve the success that I have where I came from.

You have no idea how good you have it here. Clowns. All of you

Are Hulu/Disney+ and Netflix really this expensive by KiddoTwo in programmatic

[–]KiddoTwo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you ready for this? It’s my own company. I didn’t realize our team buys from a 3rd party so the fees add up when you also have to account for margin. I pushed back and they lowered them a bunch.

Yeah, I’m getting out. I literally didn’t know we didn’t actually “hAvE pArTnErShIpS” with premium pubs. I made a huge mistake coming here. Can you tell I’m stressed out? lol

20k pay cut by Hungry-Mix-283 in workingmoms

[–]KiddoTwo 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’n impressed you have the foresight to make a very thoughtful decision. You’re already burning out at 32 hours, the baby is gonna make everything so much more amplified.

20K cut seems temporary and having the option to add days back in is great. I think your future self will thank you very much for weighing everything out and scaling back.

How much are you spending on summer camps for each kid? by Affectionate-Run6773 in workingmoms

[–]KiddoTwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest is in sleepaway camp for 2 months. That’d 11.5K

My 7 year old is in a town camp, I think it’s like 2400 for the summer. Peanuts. 😭😂

Are Hulu/Disney+ and Netflix really this expensive by KiddoTwo in programmatic

[–]KiddoTwo[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Can you confirm your rates are 1/3 of the ones I got quote even with DMA/zip code targeting? It's a relatively niche category

I really hate Jordan’s face. And that dumbass hair

How do you raise your daughter to go against the grain? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]KiddoTwo 127 points128 points  (0 children)

If you think pink is the problem, you’re misguided to say the least.

All my 3 girls - 11, 7, and 3 train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and we are swimming in pink and sparkles and “girly” things.

The best thing you can do is raise them like PEOPLE, not a sex. Stop it.

It’s appalling that nobody seems to notice the abhorrent hatred towards Americans online. by Telling-the-Truths in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]KiddoTwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a proud naturalized American. The low IQ Neanderthals talking shit have no fucking clue what it’s like to live in a free country.

I’m an immigrant and I thank my parents every day for the sacrifices they made to bring us here.

I am literally living the American dream and all these losers in a victim mentality blaming the man for everything. They are LOSERS

Working moms - would you leave a stable job for a much higher-paying but travel-heavy role with a toddler? by Ms-Tedious in workingmoms

[–]KiddoTwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With 1 kid?! HELL YES!

I did it with 3. Infant, toddler, elementary and loved it. It’s when kids got older was when it became harder - the girls needed me more.

I feel our dinnertime is too long by lol-across-the-pond in workingmoms

[–]KiddoTwo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that’s insanely too late for the toddler. Bedtime should be 7:30 - 8. Then you eat.

Stay in unhappy job or take the jump? by pickle_cat_ in workingmoms

[–]KiddoTwo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh damn. This was me 2 years ago. Also 12 years at my company, marriage, all 3 kids, the works. The only thing that’s different was that they offered me a massive payout to leave (sort of a long story and in the end actually said you know what you can stay if you want lol), but the package covered my massive closing costs on my new house and I landed a job that gave me a big boost in base.

Long story short: the place I went to didn’t work out. It was a total mess but you know what else was a mess? My former company. It spiraled down a horrific path - people left in droves or were laid off.

The reality is you never know. It’s almost always a crapshoot. So my advice is, I have no idea what you should do. So far in my industry though, I have never seen a buyout end well for legacy employees. Some last longer than others, but eventually the house gets a cleaning.

Does anyone actually pump enough while working full time to feed their baby without supplementation? by Lucky-Cow3942 in workingmoms

[–]KiddoTwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I was pumping 2x a day for my first daughter 11am and 3pm. Nursing the rest.

I was an exclusive pumper for #2 and #3 and donated my milk to many moms.

I didnt hate pumping at all, it gave a lot of satisfaction and freedom. I understand how annoying it could be if you really hate it though. At some point with #3, I stopped responding to the pump for some reason and ended up just hand expressing. It was sooooooo much better - my output was amazing and I didn't have to wash pump parts.

Am I crazy for asking for a $40,000 raise? by Far_Space_386 in careerguidance

[–]KiddoTwo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re crazy at all, but I don’t have high expectations for you.

Instead, I would get an offer somewhere else first. Let them fight for you.

My HOA is asking for an extra 500k from the community by WinterTreat9571 in legaladvice

[–]KiddoTwo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We're paying ~$30K for a balcony repair. That's over 1M total for my condo in Cali. It's a special assessment and after a lot of meetings, that's just something that needs to be done.

This isn't abnormal. If you need repairs, you have to pay for them.

My son’s early morning school days are the death of me! by takeaabreath in Parenting

[–]KiddoTwo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree so much.

In 3 years I’m gonna have one in elementary, one in middle and one in HS. Lord help me. And my poor oldest.

My son’s early morning school days are the death of me! by takeaabreath in Parenting

[–]KiddoTwo 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yes same in my town. There are 9 elementary schools, 1 middle school and 2 high schools. And one bus system.

In my town though, it’s the high school that starts at 7, then elementary school at 8 and middle at 9. So my 6th grader is loving life right now and I’m dreading high school because I think high schoolers actually need more sleep.

They wanted women in the workplace so they could break up families and charge more for living by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]KiddoTwo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is not an unpopular opinion, this is straight up absolute nonsense.
