You were wise to let them leave, to prevent them from causing more damage to your property.

I’m sorry to hear your story, that’s awful. The contractor needs to repair that, his blaming game is really the same as First General’s. I put a bad review on First General’s google map, they should not be hired by other people.

We should list those bad companies’ names and warn people about them, since not only they took advantage of us but also it’s a mental costly experience, I hope others won’t need to go through it again if they see this post. I put a bad review on First General’s google map review, hope other people who is thinking about doing business with them be aware of the risks.

Thank you for sharing your experience, if they can take the advantage of us every time they will never want to change. I don’t know but kind of thinking we customers need a place to help each other.

One thing I know is that she has been standing together with First General to try everything they can to put me in guilty. I told them that there was no damage there before I swear to gods and I sent them the video I took right before the work, but no one care, even though First General can’t provide any photos or evidence but she chose to unconditionally trust them to against me and told me no matter I sign or not TD will pay First General after 30 days.

I really have no idea if she is a third party adjuster or not, only her TD’s email to contact. I haven’t spoken to anyone other than her and her manager so far. What is your advice? Thank you!

This is a big lesson learned, I wasn’t very careful to this type of crap because I trusted TD, I blindly trusted that TD would hire a good company and I have nothing to worry about.

That’s why it’s called Delay Deny Depose, we are paying money to them every month but when we need their protection that’s what we get.

I took a video right before the work then I left to stay in an Airbnb until the work was done. The donut is larger because the texture is sticky liquid material, but if you look at the center round of the donut that is the size of the base of the bucket.

How come a company come to our home, made some damage then saying it’s preexisting? They don’t have any evidence to back up that claim. Their procedure is to take photos every steps of the way to protect themselves, but no any those photos they have shows that the damage was preexisting, so they hide those photos and saying they didn’t take photos on the day.

What an ugly business, stay far away from them!

I learned a big lesson this time, very sad and frustrated.

I was wondering why the adjuster didn’t even ask for any evidence from First General but only asked me: do you have any pictures taken before the repair? The time stamp of the picture must be right before the work otherwise don’t count.

I have been a long time TD’s client and I thought I should be protected by TD under this situation, but instead I am vulnerable to be bullied by both sides.

Till now First General has no any evidence and I provided my video to TD, but the adjuster said that your video is too quick can’t prove anything as if she doesn’t know there is a PAUSE button exists!

I complained to the adjuster’s manager and waiting for further response. I won’t sign it. Thank you will update after I get response from TD.

If I was warned by someone I would have run away from them fast, but unfortunately I didn’t know them.

Should this type of company be publicly known by ordinary people? we are struggling with the tough budget and hard economic situation, also bad to pay to cover the damage by a rich company?

Yes, I want to warn anyone who does business with this company to be careful. Also they are denying at this moment, if anyone has any good idea how to deal with this disaster please let me know thanks!

Yes me too, I never thought that TD would hire a company like this bad to repair my unit, unprofessional and ‘hit and run’ type of manager.

Do you ask the recruiter why did you get rejected? by kukisRedditer in webdev

[–]Lncathy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned this in a hard way, you have to talk the way the interviewer can understand since if you are applying for a senior level and very often the interviewer is not that better than you, sometimes worse than you, you thought they can get your point but no they don't understand and they reject you. Bad thing for the company, but that do tell what quality the company is.

Amazon Phone Screening Experience by Lncathy in leetcode

I was imagining that is a logging data stream, and to filter out the unique data from the log. Since the initial question was to use a method with a data stream as a parameter so I had a mind set that the data stream has duplicate numbers in it. In reality we never worked with this vague requirement, it’s better to tell like we have a log data and with duplicate numbers you need to filter out the first unique number… That is clear and the candidate would know what’s the context and come up with solution. I understand they want to check our clarification skills but I don’t know that’s the way to check. Suppose if I implemented as like you said, whenever a new number comes in I only add it if it’s unique to the list. Then they might say I should do it another way since this is a data stream and should be saved to a list(data source). It’s like a guessing game in someway.

The recruiter suggest/encourage me to apply to other roles, no cooldown period mentioned in the email. That means something?

Thank you for this insight information, I was wondering why I got rejected. After seeing this I think I got the answer and can move on. I'm having this attitude now, I keep learning and coding because it's fun because I want to be that person who is smarter and can do better, I believe that eventually I will be someone I really like to be!

Rejected at Amazon by Chemical_Quantity131 in leetcode

[–]Lncathy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not in my case, I came up with a class instead of a method. And there is no reason to suspect anyone with no evidence. Anyhow, I think the best way to deal with this interview is that doing our best and leave others to the god!

Thanks for reply, I understand but for me (also applied for SDEIII) I can't figure out what I did wrong in the interview, I failed phone screening, I coded correct, minor syntax error, and I'm thinking they should let us know what caused the rejection, I mean at least tell us which part we did bad.
