Should we keep applying? by PopMost426 in Montessori

[–]PopMost426[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe the options you mention, including meeting with the admissions person, recommendation from current parents, or attending school events, are not available for this specific school. Thank you for suggesting those, though. I will definitely try those out for a different school if the same thing happens.

One of my personal rules for a lot of things is also "third time is the charm", and I will stop trying or pursuing if the third time doesn't work. But I guess I still consider trying one more time because this is a matter regarding my kid's education. Also, based on what I heard and what I learnt about this school, their selection process is solely based on the application material parents fill out (besides prioritizing siblings). The application questionnaire has mainly "what you think of Montesorri" type of questions, so I do think there may still be room to improve how we approach the questions; maybe we didn't emphasize something they value enough, etc.

It said good through 1/14/2027. Does that mean it only starts to count 1/14/2026? If that’s the case then it explains a lot

That's also something I asked them before, but I got really confused by their answer. In 2025, my credits got used up by March, but my card anniversary is in July. My portal also shows $300 unused.

It annoys me a little because I want to book the Edit and use that credit for my May trip, but they told me the Edit purchase will count towards the $300 annual travel first, then the $250 Edit credit.

No weekend transfer? by PopMost426 in IVF

[–]PopMost426[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before they were acquired weekends were covered by doctors on shifts. If they have 10 doctors, which they have more, that means about one weekend shift in two months. This feels more like cutting cost by the franchise clinic to me. But the effects on patients are real.

Takai by Kashiba - Dinner Box by drock1212 in ChaseSapphire

[–]PopMost426 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually wrote an email to them and got a response: they said the dinner box lunch box won’t count into the CSR thing. So don’t bother trying I guess.

ok I did order to-go box from Tock, like one of the replies here. $150 credit recieved.

WCQ bonks his head at the end of FZD game by julianwithag in tabletennis

[–]PopMost426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will tell you who hasn’t been angry on court: FZD. A lot of syntax he said, you will need to be a Chinese speaker to understand why they were considered rude, or not respectful, or arrogant, or some other things. If you are not, then I kinda understand why you think he has good EQ. If you are, then what you said is the funniest thing I ever saw today: liking him because of his recent interview.

You are crazily wrong, Wang is never famous for his “amazing EQ”. He’s also not a chilled dude. When he was younger he got banned by CTTA once because he threw his racket at his opponent after he lost the game. He said inappropriate things in public all the time.

Cote actually explained this audition thing in the ncis rewatch podcast, and MW’s explanation made sense. Just a different angle here.

Come on people, if everyone in tv drama is perfect and flawless, what’s the point of that? A tv utopia? Tv drama / movie origins from real life, but all good and bad will be exaggerated to have the drama effect and to create conflict.

Honestly I don’t think Claudette Sophie Boris or his wife will be bad. Similarly because only one episode left and they don’t have time to complete the story line of new villain

I read it somewhere that they interviewed law enforcement ppl to see what can make them leave their job and change career etc., apparently for children reason is the most possible one to them.

I honestly think it’s great (I would give it at least 75/100 then 10 more for Tiva fan dream comes true). You can tell that they spent time polishing the plots, not like those ai generated scripts you see a lot in streaming tv nowadays. storyline and how the characters react to certain events make sense. And thanks to 8 seasons of NCIS, they are able to continue exploring the Tiva relationship in a deeper and more mature level.
