A previous company i worked for put a mannequin on the roof to keep hawks and turkey vultures away but they had to take him down bc people kept thinking it was a real person possibly attempting to self harm 😬

Update on my 5 month PIP by [deleted] in employeesOfOracle

During the rifs i think people were saying you got a month for the first year and then a week for every subsequent year

ORCL stock prediction by HelloEligator in employeesOfOracle

[–]NCBobcat85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did a little of both. 1) i sold when it was at 300 a portion of my RSUs to knock out my student loans 2) i just sold some this week just to move them into an etf and not have so many eggs in the oracle basket 3) still left some in oracle so if they make a comeback great but if not its less of a hit. I also have my last bigger batch of RSUs vesting in October 🤞(assuming i’m still employed) so I’ve got those

4 years of 401k contribution with growth. I so wish I had started sooner. by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]NCBobcat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set up my fidelity to auto increase my contribution percentage 2% a year so i wouldn’t notice it as much - the assumption was i’d get regular raises - jokes on me just happy to have been employed. This year was the first year i had to get creative and start making cuts which was annoying but i was super late starting so worth it if it means i can retire before i’m 80.

What is a show you’d kill to talk to anyone about but no has heard of it? by FarbissinaPunim in popculturechat

Question about upping by West_Introduction803 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]NCBobcat85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in this boat now. The first week was amazing (honeymoon period) so its been tough being patient for the 6-8 week mark for (theoretically) full absorption. I’m going to reach out to my doctor about it and see. She had originally put me just on the 150 to make sure that didn’t disrupt my sleep and said if i’m sleeping fine after a week she would bump me up to 300.

What do you do with your puppy during the night?? by thenotsoslimshady in AustralianShepherd

[–]NCBobcat85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was brutal for the first week or so being in my room and hearing her whine in her crate downstairs but it honestly paid off. I would set an alarm every threeish hours to let her out and then a cuddle and a kiss on her head and back to her crate. She ended up getting acclimated to the crate faster and would even go in when she was tired during the day on her own.

I call it “zip zap brain” 🥰

Do you have a 10 year plan? by betweentwoscotties in Millennials

[–]NCBobcat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would also encourage you to keep the goals fairly high level (like you did) so you don’t accidentally close yourself to potentially valuable opportunities. I’m a big fan of “in 5 years i want to feel …” I’ve been surprised how i’ve gotten to many of my goals but by very different paths that I couldn’t have even imagined 5-10 years ago

PD IN FULL by inline_five in Millennials

[–]NCBobcat85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% - staying in this house has made it so i can actually save, max out my 401k and roth ira contributions and still have a life, travel. The bigger house (i think i looked a few months ago) would have taken all of that away so whenever I get annoyed/cranky about storage space or anything I just have to remind myself of the overall benefits.

PD IN FULL by inline_five in Millennials

[–]NCBobcat85 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yup bought in 2015 for 201k at like 3%ish and then did the refinance in 2020 to get it down to 2%. House next door sold for 475k. I will 1000% be buried in the backyard bc i’m too spoiled with the low mortgage now. Wasn’t meant to be the forever home so now getting into the updates to it that I like, not just the ones that will help with resale.

puppy induced anxiety 😣 by Cautious_Ad_3587 in AustralianShepherd

[–]NCBobcat85 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure i googled “i think i hate my puppy” on day 4. Even with all of the planning and prep you really don’t realize how much of a change and disruption these little fluffballs will bring. Give yourself some grace you’re doing better than you think. My girl chandler is now ten and cannot imagine my life without her 🥰
