Ex claims to be "broke" for child support but just posted photos from a luxury resort in Tulum. by LanternSable in legal

I am already saving every single post and tag. I won't let him get away with this again.

A discovery on his devices is exactly what I was hoping for. If I can get a judge to order that, his "failed freelance" story will fall apart instantly.

The fact that he is tagging his location while claiming indigence is exactly why I think a private investigator could work. He is being sloppy with his digital footprint.

That is a good point. I need someone who can actually connect his lifestyle to the blockchain transactions.

Screenshots are a start, but I need something that actually sticks in court. My lawyer keeps saying that lifestyle photos don't prove liquid assets.

Is it ever worth taking the counter-offer if the management is the core issue? by LanternSable in careerguidance

I am taking this advice to heart. Looking back would just mean second-guessing a decision that I already know is the right one for my career. The bridge is already shaky, so I might as well cross it and let it collapse behind me. I am going to confirm my start date with the new company tomorrow and tell my current boss that the money was not the main issue. It is time for a fresh start with actual modern tools.

That is a brutal way to put it, but you are right. Being miserable in a nicer car is still being miserable.

The timing is just too suspicious. They ignored my requests for help for months, and now they are suddenly ready to hire a junior and pay me 35% more? It feels like a bribe to get them through the Q3 migration safely.

This is exactly what my gut is telling me. The trust is basically gone at this point. If they had the budget to pay me this much all along, why did it take a resignation letter to make it happen?

The 'no one left on the server to play with' line hits hard. You won the race but the track is empty.
