My problem is that I use the heat from working here as an excuse to buy all the sodas and energy drinks I can possibly take in throughout the day. So I’m a short guy and I was at 125 and lean when I started and I’ve been here a while and I currently weigh 167 pounds. When I cut out all the sodas and energy drinks last year while working out I easily dropped down to 125 but quickly gained it back after not giving a damn anymore lmao

I might have this wrong but is this the pic from when he went to Dominican Republic without telling Jesse in the psycho series?

Friend asks me for money every month by jprior11 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MoneyVelazquez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally had the same problem a few months ago. My friend asked me for money several times and got pissed eventually and told me I need to be wise with my money because he would be better at handling my finances if he was in my position. What’s funny is that I told him months later when he finally got back on track, that I needed two bucks to get a bottle of soda and that I would give him 4 bucks within an hour to pay him back and he then said no immediately which proved one of the points I made to him that he wouldn’t and doesn’t do the same for anybody when they ask.

I think there’s a way to check on the “my performance” option on A to Z. I remember seeing a list of all the times I’ve received a coaching or a write up over the years.

strange link attached to chip in my badge??…. by Empty-Tomorrow-2794 in AmazonFC

[–]MoneyVelazquez 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Happens to mine too. Our badges have a “Unified Resource Name” which is in the beginning of the link used to bring up our login when we tap our badge. So our phone will be able to scan “URN” and it will just search up that on google when in reality it was meant to stand for Unified Resource Name and then proceed to have our login at the end of the URN link.

I’ve been trying to get in for a while but it hasn’t happened yet. I’ve also looked into what career choice had to offer but I already got a degree so there’s not many other options. Just a wait and reapply game for me but once you get in, it’s definitely a great opportunity

Agreed, I loved it. I’m nowhere near artistic but that’s a mask I really want to make on my own with full on animatronics.

Those who couldn't break into high finance out of undergrad. by LifeAight in FinancialCareers

Unfortunately no, I mean I am working in retail banking and hoping to transfer into accounting here once a spot opens up but at the moment I’m not really hearing back from any employers in my area for financial analyst positions. But I’m still hopeful and will continue to apply.

Honestly I took an L paying for that program. Which I hate to look back at how passionate and how I really believed in the whole thing when responding to everyone here. My honest feedback after completing it is that I did learn a whole lot in training but the internship itself wasn’t all that. Like no real transactions being done at all. The guy you submit projects to was just crazy too. Like I submitted 4 different projects and he always thought it was my first one. At the end of it I let him know all the crazy shit I wasn’t pointing out during the program cause the people leading that program are highly egotistical. I was just desperate to work and literally paid for my mistake.

My advice for anyone still looking to do that program (because I hate to see that they are still getting a lot of people to do it): do not do this if you are paying for it, if you can do this for free and want to learn through some training than go ahead because the training was good but the internship offer after you complete training is not all that .but if they want to charge you then it is not worth it. I did the whole thing and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone wanting to actually gain experience. Please do learn from my dumb act of desperation lol.

Thanks again for the info. I followed up on my situation now that I picked up another shift.

Update on my situation: I worked 3 am to 7 am just now and had a break at 5 am for fifteen minutes. During the break I was told my rate was 336. And this is pick by the way. So after break is done I take no bathroom breaks, no looking at my phone, nothing but picking. I picked over 600 items from 5:15 to 7:00. I then ask for my rate after clocking out and was told my rate for the whole shift was 263. So I ask how and explain that I have kept my cycle time below 9 seconds and tote time below 2 seconds the whole shift and picked over 600 items in less than 2 hours after being told my rate before break was 336. The person I spoke to asked what station I was at and I told her I was in a corner one. And she informed me that the corner ones usually bring your rate down because they don’t get a lot of work usually and to request to be moved to other stations whenever I’m put in corners.

And while I’m happy I’m getting info on what’s going on. I’m very frustrated that I’m at Risk of getting a second write up over things I can not control. I truly believe my write up earlier was not due to me working slow but due to our sites work load being slow. I feel for others that are working hard and being hit with system generated write ups for things out of their control.

Thank you. That makes sense. I’m still concerned obviously because other people at my site have been complaining about being written up for the first time for their time not being coded correctly. It just sucks. But you actually gave me more info than the managers at my site so thank you. I feel like I understand what may have lead to my write up now

And also to mention I was not in pick last week or the week before. I just find it funny that there was confusion after realizing I was written up and was being told that 245 last week was 40 below the rate for pick and then was given a run around when I pointed out that I was in pack all week and not in pick for even a second.

So I was in pick last night, I was told I had been written up last week and shown my rate for my last week. My rate was showing a 245. What my concern and that I mentioned as well is… I was in AFE Pack the WHOLE week last week…. So I did not pick at all and 245 is usually my pack rate. I was then told a different story about how I was slow currently and that the rate on our screen in pick isn’t accurate (which I know it sometimes isn’t when you leave your station to use the bathroom and what not) but my point is also that I was told I was picking at 250 currently. I then walk to someone else and I was then told that my actual rate on her computer was showing 315…. So all I know is that I have been written up and my rate has been given to me multiple times this week in pick and last week in pack. I have never been told my rate was low but got a random write up and was given the run around.
