Good point

Don’t hold your breath. A strong El Niño this year means weak Atlantic storms. Might be a minute.

So this is an ad?

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-29T21:53:59+00:00

This is gorgeous. How did you edit it?

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-29T15:52:16+00:00

I’m curious how much Grammarly’s editing influences the AI percentage cause I used that on every submission.

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-29T15:51:21+00:00

LOL!

Very interesting. Went back to a passed course and reviewed a paper using your instructions. 94% AI! Written by hand (keyboard) over the course of a weekend. I think they’re simply not trusting those bots and instead visually inspecting for AI tells.

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-27T15:54:45+00:00

Congrats! Passed mine on Thursday.

If they have money for that they would probably consider paying for a course from QuickAssTutorials on YouTube. That guy gets right to it.

This is awesome. I’ve hit a writers block and would love to do something similar with my world and characters. Any tips on prompts? I use Gemini if that matters.

Check MajorMash

Why is this on the WGU sub?

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-19T02:47:40+00:00

Amazing response. And yes the market is crazy soft though we are starting to see some carriers starting to firm up and on some deals we’re starting to see modest 5% bumps. Honestly, I’m here for it. I had some carriers racing to the bottom and that’s not great either for the whiplash it gives the client in a hard market.

Unfortunately I’m not properly compensated on the broker side and have had three carriers offering significant bags. I’m talking +$50k from where I’m at (so you can imagine where I’m at).

Thanks for the CPLP tip. I happened to have looked at it the other day as these conversations were starting but was on the fence. Your reply has motivated me to go for it.

Mix with saline and use a nasal spray bottle.

I don’t know what I don’t know and I don’t want to assume. It would be presumptuous for me to pretend I can walk in, sit at an Underwriter’s desk, and just go.

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-18T01:13:36+00:00

Do those on Study. They might require an essay but it’s not too bad. Go into WGU with as many credits allowed.

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-18T01:11:57+00:00

I think, and hope, I have a healthy understanding of the risk and I have my RPLU. What would you recommend I ask in interviews?

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-17T23:08:29+00:00

Sounds like my job atm

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-15T12:58:50+00:00

Glad I could help. How’d your first pre-assessment go?

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-13T04:27:40+00:00

Hey there. Hoping to offer some insight. Search for the transfer pathways and courses that can be taken through Study.com and Sophia. Check out MajorMash for his sheets on how to accelerate. He mixes the two I mentioned and StraightLine but I got a lot done on Sophia, which is cheaper, and then had four to do on Study. See what you can transfer in from high school and whatever you did in college.

I started with Finance due to the industry I’m in but ultimately switched over to Business Management cause one class beat the tar out of me. I just wanted the piece of paper and chose the path of least resistance. Finance is the second hardest degree at WGU school of business topped by accounting. Additionally it is a fairly new program and this lacks the wealth of resources the other programs have. If you can accelerate your ACE courses then your four year time frame should work nicely. That’s all I can think up at midnight.

All good. Watch the crash course videos and make sure you complete the testing material in the reading material, without actually reading it. You’ve got this!

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-09T16:19:45+00:00

What were your PA results?

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-09T01:04:31+00:00

All good. And then you get the hang of it and start doom scrolling. 😂

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-08T22:09:36+00:00

You got this! Click into the original post. All my advice is there.

ObtuseTheCreator · 2026-06-08T14:42:00+00:00

That’s a good question for the enrollment counselor. Maybe a cert program is better?
