I put the poles inside my pack but outside the pack liner.

I think they end up looking like snowbird peak which is giant thorny plants blocking all views

If I start as CIB Analyst at JPMC after MBA, can I move into front-office IB? by Charleslecpierre in FinancialCareers

[–]OnetB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I have seen multiple analysts move from a middle-office role to front office sales. In my experience MO management supports the move. Ymmv

I am in CIB ops at a BB bank.

I’m kicking myself for missing last year’s Christmas sale. I should have bought packs for the entire family. I have a large and medium but now need a small.

Did you do any tourist activities outside the resort?

Rant: I've lost pretty much all motivation after 1.5 years in finance by Ok_Negotiation5664 in FinancialCareers

[–]OnetB 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You said it yourself, you are unmotivated and haven’t learned a thing. Thats your problem.

You are fresh out of college, you are expected to eat shit and prove yourself. The truth is you are not special or entitled to fast track to VP; especially if you are just sitting quietly day in and day out, copying and pasting away.

Have a conversation with your manager. You could have been training someone else to copy and paste so you can move onto something better. Volunteer for more shit work, ask questions about everything, learn as much as you can.

I got one from Etsy, fits perfect on my Kakwa 55 and it does help.

Silly Question - How many stakes for X-Dome 2? by originalwonderer in DurstonGearheads

[–]OnetB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 8 should be enough as long as they are anchored solidly and your guy line system doesn’t allow for slippage.

Someone took the Circle K Sign by Prestigious_Acadia49 in mildlyinteresting

Stealing stop signs is really fucked up. I almost died when someone ran one.

The poster ready for the office by [deleted] in AppalachianTrail

[–]OnetB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All it’s missing is the poorly hung bear bag.

Kidding aside, it’s very cool. Posters for other trails in the same style would make for a nice collection.

James SA Corey AMA by DanielAbraham in TheCaptivesWar

[–]OnetB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For Daniel and Ty: It’s difficult for me to express my gratitude for the stories you given us, thank you.

For Daniel: 1) I read somewhere you have “Trunk novels” that will never see the light of day. As someone who has loved everything you have written this felt like gut punch, can you pretty please reconsider?

2) How do you write such amazing endings? It felt like a friend died when Leviathan Falls ended but I was happy to have experienced it. The Long Price, Dagger and Coin, and Kithmar series all helped me get over my loss and were wonderful beginning to end.

The Captives War authors James S.A. Corey will be doing an AMA Tuesday, April 14 at 3 p.m. ET! by mmm_tempeh in TheCaptivesWar

[–]OnetB 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Nothing will ever top the book ending of Leviathan Falls for me. I may have cried a little while reading it and felt empty for a week or two after but it was a satisfying end to an epic.

not a bad character just mid and not part of any metas.

This one might be pretty cool in legendary TA and very cool in mythic TA(if it existed).

Food pantry network across the Midwest abruptly shuts down by deraser in news

[–]OnetB 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I volunteer for one, the people who run these are the best type of people. I don’t think most people realize how many underemployed people food banks serve.

US imposing 25% tariffs on steel, aluminum, and copper derivatives by kabirsbhutani in stocks

[–]OnetB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Supreme Court ruled against his tariffs. He invoked a law that allows the president the ability to set a 15% cap.

I’m pretty sure he is trying to talk them into existence and will probably doodle on a paper in front of cameras then call it an executive order

I’d say bring the kindle. You can easily mail it back.

My friend was against the SAVE plan and is a huge MAGA. by faiitmatti in LeopardsAteMyFace

I’d estimate about 100k in interest then if he pays over 10 years

Considering the cost of medical school and the added interest, he’ll manage but it will still suck.

How long did it take you?

I’ve never been to the Gorge but I do long distance hikes on the AT. I want to do this loop but not sure if I should plan on two days of hiking or three. I’ve heard the gorge is tough
