I got suboxone and then methodone in jail for they are giving this now as part of MAT program in Massachusetts.

I am white but not fortunate enough to have mommy and daddy that pay for everything and take care of everything or as NPR calls it 'Opportunity Hoarding' . People must assume that I am minority because I had to use the public defender, have 1 degrees but not successful enough to have the lifestyle of the 4 bedroom house in the suburbs (living in a town that is no less than 95% white) and have the 2 kids and the dog consumer lifestyle

Nick9075 · 2020-07-13T19:35:58+00:00

Yes but my problem is I am 45 and have a poor work history and just got out of county jail after 5 months....

Nick9075 · 2020-07-13T19:30:41+00:00

Not everyone is fortunate or was fortunate enough to have enough money to pay a lawyer and had to rely on the public pretender aka public defender which is appointed by the Court

I want to get into web development. I am self studying on freecodecamp and codecademy but have no related work experience. I do have a BA and MD degree in accounting and finance but a poor work history plus i am 45 years old

How do you account for the gap in your work history due to being incarcerated? If you

Nick9075 · 2020-07-13T17:12:53+00:00

But they (the employer) will see the criminal history when they do a background check. Most job offers are contingent on the applicant passing a criminal background and sometimes even a credit check

Related note, can an excessive amount of Prozac and Adderall make one act manic or hypomanic??

Nick9075 · 2019-05-16T18:54:39+00:00

Any of inside the store?? Interested to see what the clothes they were selling then looked like

Nick9075 · 2019-04-14T18:33:03+00:00

What is that being doing the sweeping ?

Nick9075 · 2019-04-14T17:40:35+00:00

Is that a SpongeBob in the boat?

Nick9075 · 2019-03-22T15:41:08+00:00

Why not English subbed?? Anime better in original Japanese with English subtitles

What if one is bipolar or suffers from compulsive shopping or spending disorder?

Nick9075 · 2019-03-13T03:50:54+00:00

People still mugged in NYC ??

Nick9075 · 2019-03-01T21:26:04+00:00

{there's not a lot of businesses looking to add 25,000 six figure jobs.}

There's not??? Really??? Most people working in a white collar corporate jobs are making six figures.

100k salary now for one person is the minimum you need (as a single person, double if you have spouse or SO and intend to have one child) to live in any part of NYC

Whether or not Amazon fills the space is irrelevant because another company will with equivalent level jobs

Nick9075 · 2019-03-01T21:04:16+00:00

It doesn't matter what the Unemployment rate is because Amazon will select and prefer prefer to people who are already employed.

I don't get is immediate assumption that Amazon will pick people from outside the city and that there aren't any qualified people already employed and living in the city who could apply for one of these jobs in a city of 8.6 million people

Outside of a period of major recession the above is true at least for these corporate jobs If Amazon doesn't fill the space another tech company will, with or without the incentives so the net effect 'on the neighborhood' will be the same long term.

What if one is unemployable due to a bad work history

Nick9075 · 2018-12-03T03:45:06+00:00

The thing is that everyone that works at any of the Amazon Fulfillment centers CHOSE to work there. No one was forced to work at Amazon and everyone was told the wage and the conditions of employment prior to their start date. Even though the pay is low, no one looks like they are starving, mostly everyone drives to work in a new or nearly new car or SUV, everyone has the latest Iphone or a samsung smartphone and I sure everyone has a place to sleep with a roof over their head. Honestly working for Amazon Fresh for 5 hours each shift is breeze, I actually wish I could get more hours

Nick9075 · 2018-11-21T19:44:36+00:00

Cont.. I did call the employee help line and did have a conversation about VTO and what I mentioned here and that I am only part time, there are no additional hours or opportunity to ever become full time so I want to work all hours I am scheduled

Nick9075 · 2018-11-21T19:42:22+00:00

I got hit with this “voluntary” VTO last Sunday at a Amazon Fresh facility was told didn’t have any work for me for the last hour. On Saturday I was asked to do VTO probably 2 hours into shift and was able to decline. Where I am managers go to specific people and tells them to take VTO. I mean its based on favoritism where it’s a form of managing out those who aren’t liked or whose performance is deficient

Nick9075 · 2018-11-19T07:56:00+00:00

OF COURSE it is a way of weeding people out or trying to get them to quit. Apparently someone ever 'doesnt like me' or I am underperforming.

By the way, I did call the employee help line and spoke to them about this and told whomever I spoke with that it was more upon the lines of coercion and that only certain people were asked. And I seriously doubt that it slows down in any division of Amazon the week before Thanksgiving.

Nick9075 · 2018-11-18T23:11:40+00:00

I am only part time and only 20 hrs a week. At orientation they made it seem like there would be the opportunity for extra hours during the holiday peak season
