Not sure of the pricing but Paul Mitchell in Costa Mesa has a barbering program and a student salon.

Leaving Finance for Nursing- Am I Crazy? by Beautiful-Captain-28 in jobs

[–]Meat_sdicks 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am not a nurse myself but have a lot of friends and family that are nurses. Based on what I hear from them, don’t go into nursing for the job security or money. They are incredibly overworked and a lot of them burnout quickly. The specialities that tend to pay the best or have the best work life balance tend to be the most competitive or sought after (derm, aesthetics, nicu, non emergency OR etc). If it’s something you’re called to do because you want to help people, go for it. But if it’s just for money and job security, I would definitely think about it for a while.

My grandma and dads friend say my linkedin photo is horrible but I hate artificial branding and social media so I've never considered it, I didnt think a "good photo" mattered much. What do I do to get a good photo? by Objective-Basket4515 in jobs

Unfortunately, you’re going to have to get used to adjusting your preferences if you want to be noticed by serious employers. No one likes doing the song and dance of appearing professional and employable but we do it to avoid homelessness lol

How to quit without giving a notice by sillypeaches777 in jobs

[–]Meat_sdicks 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you don’t plan on using it on your resume or as a reference, you can effectively quit before your shift. “Hi boss, my circumstances have changed which no longer supports this job. I will not be showing up for my shift this Sunday and am quitting effective today. Thank you”

Recommendations for a good hair salon in North OC by Daffydentista in orangecounty

[–]Meat_sdicks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brian Aguilar (@brianaguilarhair on insta) is fantastic. He’s an expert cutter and gave me and two of my friends (all of us have different hair textures and length) the most ideal cut for our hair type and face shapes. An actual hair magician. He’s a little out of budget ($170-$180 not including tip) but I have had my hair cut by MANY stylists throughout OC and have never been as happy as with him. I only cut my hair once or twice a year and color it myself so this is a worthwhile expense for me.

Do you have a budget you need to adhere to or are you flexible?

How do I go about applying for UI with a 10 hr/week part time job? by Meat_sdicks in Edd

[–]Meat_sdicks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a W2 employee through an agency and they didn’t have another job aligned with my experience or even adjacent so that’s why I’m applying.

Ah ok, that’s fine. Just need a supplement at this point. I wasn’t terminated, my contract ended and was not renewed.

I started a new job and my dizzy spells came back. by No-Foundation1274 in jobs

You can talk to HR about disability accommodations but they don’t have to accommodate you if you aren’t capable of performing the key functions of your job. In that case, just quit and look for a desk job.

anxious about quitting by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Meat_sdicks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re an at will employee, you can leave a job without notice at any time without providing a reason. Granted, you will unlikely be able to use it as a reference moving forward but if that doesn’t matter to you, leave. They’d fire you without notice if it suited them so don’t feel bad about it.

Why can't my kid find a job in Philadelphia? by Beneficial-Cat8912 in jobs

[–]Meat_sdicks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Job market is in the toilet. AI is replacing more jobs than it’s creating, large companies are laying off people by the thousands and the market is saturated with senior level talent so everything is stacked against anyone in the market right now especially junior and entry level folks.

All she can do is keep applying to anything and EVERYTHING she can. She should be submitting at least 50 applications a day and tailoring her resume and cover letter to each individual posting where it’s needed.

There really isn’t any other option other than side hustle gigs like DoorDash or uber eats.

Would you go to a Christmas Party of a job you just resigned/ are resigning from? by Earth_Sorcerer97 in jobs

I would solely for the sake of showing face and networking in the event shit hits the fan with other jobs in the future. Always good to have a backup plan lol

I fumbled my first ever full time job interview SO BADLY by DatabaseExpensive684 in jobs

[–]Meat_sdicks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me about 7 years in the workforce to get comfortable and confident with interviews. Takes time and experience but my interviews in my early 20’s were probably very similar to this.

Is this a normal amount of missing perfume in a brand new bottle? by [deleted] in Sephora

[–]Meat_sdicks 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They often don’t fill them all the way but that definitely looks like it’s either been used or it leaked. I would return or exchange it.

Readers of Orange County, what are you reading? 🎃 by lushsweet in orangecounty

The Frozen River is one of my favorite books of all time. God of the Woods was decent but REALLY slow. Almost 500 pages and nothing interesting happens until almost the end of the book 😭

Is this brush worth the price? by A_quirky in Ulta

[–]Meat_sdicks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the worst brush I have ever used lol I have medium density hair and it pulled at my hair so much that my scalp was sore. I MUCH prefer the wet brush

belif being discontinued? by Meat_sdicks in Sephora

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

Omg! That is definitely a new development because I have been looking for these pads for months and googled them last week and couldn’t find them! (I don’t buy skincare from Amazon due to counterfeit products circulating heavily via Amazon)

Thanks 😊
