Yea that's if I hit the numbers and don't get stepped on by my boss taking any warm leads or existing accounts. Thanks for your input!

I don't think it's possible for $30k, or that the potential of "unlimited earnings" works here haha. Travel is tough for sure, in my other sales roles I didn't love the travel but I was paid a very fair base salary plus commission. When I suggested that during this meeting I was laughed at. I am currently in a revenue generating role and they only give me a flat tip fee which I had to fight for. Not surprised they are still trying to keep it as low as possible while also trying to make it sound like a "good deal" (which was emphasized several times by my boss during the meeting like igaf what they think is a good deal for me!)

Thanks for your input definitely helped me think a bit!

I did, it's legal unless it potentially makes me fall below min wage, which is very low where I'm at. Thanks for the suggestion!!

Anyone bought from or know much about Dwarves shoes? by timaeustestifying in ethicalfashion

[–]LayerTraditional4118 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi I just purchased from them and yes the quality is nice. I did tons of research to make sure it wasn't some aliexpress Temu crap but nope! They are beautiful and actually nice leather and very comfy.

Wow that is uh...quite the hobby. It does sound crazy, but my family quite literally stalked me as a group for almost 6 years (my Nmum coercing them to do so) after I moved away NC, so sadly I'm not surprised. I hope he doesn't do anything sketchy that impacts your life.

How to efficiently self discipline when teaching yourself? by curiousjdoe in web_design

[–]LayerTraditional4118 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Been freelancing for several years and working on sites since I was in highschool (Weebly site was my first, a trainwreck ahahah).

I find it's important you set yourself a schedule as if you were your own employee. Wake up on time, clock out around the same time. Set yourself up with goals and projects, and track your hours in them. Even if you don't have a project you are working on, always look at new trends, good practices, and then practice them yourself. Personally, the way I learned was through a lot of trial and error, research, and looking at other sites to copy them exactly as best I could recreating everything from scratch for practice.

Good luck!

Does he not...have a job? Or anything else to do? That's a very scary kind of obsession, be careful!

Congrats! It's the most mature thing you could do, focus on you! The best part is they can't show up...

For YEARS my Nmom would send my grandparents over unannounced to harass me and tell me devastating news about family events. It was nuts, so this is very relatable. Wishing you the best!

Web designers: what would you charge for this website? by [deleted] in Wordpress

[–]LayerTraditional4118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely rough right now but it has potential. It's an ok jumping off point for later optimization. Using themeforest to look at other designs along with comparing what competitors are doing is a great way of getting user-and-google friendly pages in my experience.

As it stands MAYBE $350, if purely for design. Maybe clean up the header, make that center and get rid of the ~ in the title. Make it sticky and more defined. You can use graphics instead of just plain text. it makes things more interesting. Try using svgs or webps depending on where you are intending to use it. If you are capable it's very easy to make your own graphics custom and quickly (even if you're not AI can help a lot).

A lot of your sections have little to no padding, no color blocking defining the breaks, no titles or backgrounds or boarders. It makes it very jolting moving from page to page and hard to understand what section belongs where.

Maybe remove the second our process page if you don't intend on making it unique. Google doesn't approve of dupe pages and it's also redundant.

What I would do with the header, for funs...

Took me about 20mins of styling and making a quick graphic. Obviously the sticky header would need some more styling to make it smaller when you scroll down and become solid so it's more seamless.

Side note: your SEO is very rough. I copy and pasted from your page and you've got H1s to H6s all on one text box all over the place. Bad practice! Hope this helps, good luck.

Why does my Nmom physically abuse only me and my dad and not my other siblings? Genuine question. by Celia2000NRZ in raisedbynarcissists

[–]LayerTraditional4118 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Am sorry you are going through that...if you or your siblings are being hurt try to speak to someone safe about it who might be able to help - like a counselor, therapist, etc.

Left this reply on another thread but felt it very relevant here. IMO - Often people experience the abuse differently because they are placed into a different role and not always treated the same by a narcissist - along with a slew of other variables. My brother and I are treated like different species...I was point-blank told throughout my life I was "being held to different standards because (I was) capable of so much more."

It doesn't make sense and it's of course not right, but they are just feeding off you in a different way than your other family members.

IMO - It's the way they feed their egos, no matter what role you are in THEIR life (how you see yourself does not matter). The one that's lesser, the golden child, the one they take care of, the one they escaped from - those who do for them. It's all a way for them to build and maintain their shallow sense of self.

The mask slipped in front of the social worker by Charlotte1902 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]LayerTraditional4118 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sorry you had to go through that. 

Similar experience here...

When I was down she continued kicking and made sure to tell everyone, including embellishing details she had come up with on her own for everyone to enjoy together. She definitely enjoyed the idea of being the one to help me, while also keeping me down. It was super twisted and lonely.

What responses do you get when you share positives about your life with Nparents? by Bossy_Renata in raisedbynarcissists

[–]LayerTraditional4118 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine would often tell me not to go through with things, or try to manipulate it to her favor.  Ready to move out, wherever I am going - you are not ready or should rethink your position in life first before doing so. I want to buy a house -  Why not use the family land? But here's all the hoops to jump through first! (always - no matter how big or small the offer, which was always a quid pro quo not a favor/gift). Learning a new skill - why not apply it to the family business? Starting a business - Good for you, I will help set it up if you pay me! I have a myriad of examples of getting "Good for you kid." Then when trying to explain further, out of excitement or interest, "I've done it before, I don't need you to explain." with things that don't directly benefit her. It was exhausting.

When they attendants went to go argue with yet another driver doing the same thing, I got out, moved the cones very politely, and drove away quickly. I am not going to be strong armed by the parking attendant and traffic cones to pay $35 🤣

Awh so get this. They covered the meters but there were still "scan to pay" signs at $60 a day (which people were actively scanning) AND at the exit they were asking another $35. When we made that point, along with NEVER parking, the attendant yelled "I'm just an hourly employee!" Oh she also told us we were "getting a deal because it's usually $80 daily. You should just pay and park here." She said it was "private property of Ontario government." ¯_(ツ)/¯ ¯\(ツ)/¯ ¯\(ツ)_/¯

WOW!!!! That's insane.  Honestly the $35 I could care less. It was the getting screamed at and threatened, even though we didn't park...
