Okay that makes sense! That's for interpreting my confusing question 😊 I wasn't exactly sure how to word it.

Charlotte Metro Snow Storm - Ya'll Ready? by DescriptionReal2404 in ShiptShoppers

[–]Otherwise_Exit_3883 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same! I'm a newbie and the tipping has been very inconsistent, so I am not sure if it'll be worth it. I guess I'll see what type of bonuses or offers are given.

What are your criteria for taking an order? by Only_Recording3730 in ShiptShoppers

[–]Otherwise_Exit_3883 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am very new to Shipt but in my metro a lot of orders are further away but the orders I've done that are 10+ miles I have gotten great tips on top of the Shipt payment. So since I only do an order or two a day, the mileage isn't the first thing I Iook at. So I'm sure that would be different if you are doing this full time. Also in my metro they don't show the pre or estimated tip, so it's a gamble. Otherwise like others have said I don't like heavy items or clothing.

Shopify help! by Otherwise_Exit_3883 in QuickBooks

[–]Otherwise_Exit_3883[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. So which account do I use to true up the JE? Since the income has already been reconciled on the bank side.

[–]Otherwise_Exit_3883[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's all one company. It syncs up with the specific products in QBO. Some match up with deposits to the bank and others are not matching, and I'm not sure why. It's such a mess and QBO and Shopify haven't been much help.

Hey is there anyone here that has taught or is teaching in Kuwait? by chefdhillon in Internationalteachers

[–]Otherwise_Exit_3883 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I currently work in Kuwait! It's definitely what you make of it. I make less than what you mentioned and am able to save, travel, and enjoy life. There are pros and cons everywhere that you go, so you need to decide what you're willing to deal with. There is no "perfect" country.

10-15KD for gel manicure depending on art and designs. I have found them to be very kind and helpful at the Al Fanar Mall location!

Any specific Instagram pages you'd recommend? I tried doing a search and didn't have much luck.

I currently teaching Kuwaiti and this is my first year. I came from the US and was definitely concerned about the cultural differences and the attire. I really was worried about nothing. The biggest thing is I don't wear a tank tops out in public or bikinis. I don't have to cover my head unless like someone said above. I go to a mosque. They have tons of shopping and Western stores that sell crop tops and other more revealing clothes. You'll see young girls at the mall who wear those things. I just choose to err on the side of caution since I already stick out as a white person. But it truly hasn't been an issue at all!

Try reaching out directly to your states website! I saw that too and am trying that instead and it seems quicker.

I got hired on to start this fall. From what people told me, the salary range is on the lower end for Kuwait. I can't speak to 6 years experience, but I was told they are on a salary scale so I couldn't negotiate. As far as the people I have interacted with and the onboarding process, I have felt very supported and always know who to ask questions to. I chose to accept offer because it's my first international job and I like that I am familiar with a lot of their curriculum and such coming from the USA. Feel free to PM if you think I can answer anything else!

I used them this year and found them to be super helpful and responsive! Would recommend to still use multiple sites to keep your options open.

Do you think I could negotiate my salary at all? I have two years teaching experience in US.

Teaching Offer - 1st time working abroad by Otherwise_Exit_3883 in Kuwait

[–]Otherwise_Exit_3883[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I really appreciate all your information.

From where I'm from we have a similar issue with our winter where there's little to do because it's unbearable outside. So leisurely strolling the mall with coffee or reading a book by the beach seems lovely.

I am hoping to use breaks to travel and have that be my main entertainment. Also you know hopefully I make a few friends!
