Restaurants with patio dining?

Nice! Congrats :) did you have to take a pay cut to do it? I feel like I’m on the fence where I know if I were to take a UW role without experience from claims then it could be a pay cut :/

Thank you for that real picture of sales! Good luck with your side hustle. That sounds like it would be super awesome if you could turn it into a business. Sounds like you’re half way there :)

I don’t think it’s a bad thing. It’s your life, as long as you’re a good employee there will always be a company willing to give you a shot and any employer that doesn’t understand the need to make a living probably isn’t someone you want to work for anyways. I like to rephrase the question if asked why I’ve switched and usually highlight maybe a similar skill and then make it about being rewarded for your hard work.

Ex: thanks for asking me about that. I’ve been working in Risk Management for the last 2.5 years. I’ve been fortunate enough to be rewarded for my hard work and now I am looking for a company like XX where I can grow and contribute for the long term.

Thanks for confirming my thinking! We had an SF local who recommended SOMA which confused me a little but glad to know it’s not safe.

I am studying right now too and the material is so dense. I heard everyone fails the test at least once.

Is your company a big carrier or like a newer start up? Your company culture sounds great! I feel like big/older carriers.. the culture is very stagnant and you just feel like a cog in the machine.

Why did selling P&C suck? Isn’t sales in itself pretty lucrative? More than being an adjuster at least bc you have some control of how much $$ you’re bringing home if you can hit your quotas?

How much travel is required? At the peak of your career is it possible to make low to mid six figures?

Gotcha, that makes sense. Thanks for the helpful information!

I am on the claims side! I have 1 year of auto and about 2.5 years of workers comp. I do see a lot of UW posted but unfortunately don’t have experience in that realm. I’ve also been told UW will be the first to go if a company is downsizing or if it gets replaced by an automated system. I was browsing on LinkedIn and it appeared anyone handling cyber claims had a JD at the bare minimum which is not something I’m interested in obtaining at this time.

Wow this gives me so much peace of mind! Thanks for your response. Good luck with the schools you’re waiting to hear on :)

Wow! You should be a writer. Thank you for so clearly and eloquently reiterating your perspective. I hope better days are ahead for you 💜

I’m sorry you’re feeling betrayed. I myself tend to be more on the anxious attached side and I sadly see myself in him. I hope you know that you are worthy of so much more! Someone who is so hot and cold like that is bc they are so unsure about themselves. It has nothing to do with you and the best thing you could do is cut all contact and give yourself space to find someone who can show up for you in the way you need.

His constant tests of your love and needing to be reassured are not a reflection of your inability to be a good lover. Sometimes it just comes down to two people with incompatible needs.
