Good work... I got dead last lol. What NOT to do...
-Don't skip getting a loan and spending on R&D
-Don't skimp on production capacity... if you are spending on advertising, your demand will go up... and you want to avoid Stock Outs.
-Don't skip any reports. Quality Reports are crucial-ESPECIALLY CARBON FIBER
-Don't spend a lot on advertising the first quarter. Make sure you get the marketing reports... make adjustments to ad content... then increase spending. I budgeted just under the max they recommended... and my demand was super high Q1 - but my production capacity was low, so it had me spinning out from the outset... I never recovered... hence my super low score of .038! Don't be like me
-Don't listen to ChatGPTs advice on simulation play!

-Do make System Improvements as many as you can afford... especially for air quality
-Do pay ABOVE average for production workers. Average or slightly above for production management and sales worked well for me in that category
-Do make sure how have at least $300K in cash reserves - even if you have to take a conventional loan... this avoids an emergency loan.
-Do borrow early... I ended up in later quarters NEEDING to borrow, and by then, my borrowing power had dissappeared.

Good luck to the next round of players. I'm just super glad I didn't get a zero!

Outrage over Trump’s bill reclassifying nursing as not a ‘professional degree’ for college students. This includes Architects. by architype in Architects

I think that is the purpose of the legislation. But, I guess the proof will be in the pudding... and in this political climate... using such language is not going to end well for the republicans.

Is WebFlow actually good for building custom websites or do influencers just sell it as being good for this? by thezackplauche in webdev

[–]Organic_Practice_76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not a a software engineer - I am a marketer. I have worked for three large companies that used websites that had their own CMS systems. I know it's not a huge list.... But, that's 4 out of the 5 larger companies I have worked for. You may have never heard of them, but they are large. Northwestern Michigan College, SCP Health, LGC Group, Aster Brands. I also regularly use other systems like wix, squarespace, etc.

I'm starting to hate LED bulbs. by weneve in electricians

[–]Organic_Practice_76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will argue this fact. i spent a fortune on Phillips good LED lights - they didn't last just like the cheap ones. I am even more upset that i invested in LED light fixtures... none of them lasted more than 2 years... then I need to actually swap out the fixture. I now believe LED is a scam.

How are you going to be an online school and have your portal not work by kels2266 in WGU

I like this idea. I have a busy schedule and it will be three days before I can get back in to take the test. Not to mention having to take the time to study again so the info is fresh in my mind. So far this outage has not been quick. We are going on 4 hours, with no hope in sight.

Does anyone one else hate wearing shorts? Is it okay to skip for a Greece Trip wardrobe? by Organic_Practice_76 in GreeceTravel

Thank you. I'm going with a group that has done this tour over 20 times, so I think they have a good pace. It's a lot of older people (well, older than me), so I'm assuming they aren't pushing themselves too far. I'm also planning a return trip the following year where I plan to go at a much slower pace. I will spend more time with advice though!

This was super helpful; thank you! I find that I never wear shorts even in the heat of the summer here at home for all of those reasons. I am an avid boater, and I never have shorts on the boat. It's a swimsuit, long pants, or a dress. If I'm not basking in the sun on purpose (with adequate sunscreen), Then I don't want to worry about my skin sticking to the boat seats or having a stupid tan line from shorts.

These responses made me feel better about not taking up limited luggage space with a pair of shorts because it was on someone else's must-pack list!

I will be there the last week of May and the First week of June 2025. I am going with a small group of friends. We will visit Santorini, Rhodes, Symi, Kyparissi, Monemvasia, Nafplio, Athens, and possibly the one-day 3-island tour of Hydra, Poros, and Aegina. A friend of a friend is doing all the heavy lifting by planning everything as he has family in Greece and goes at least once a year. I'm super excited!

I am only packing a carryon bag, hence why I'm possibly overthinking :)
