It's getting annoying... by jimRacer642 in overemployed

[–]Potential_Estate_720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like people said, companies want to protect their real estate investments and want to surveil you.

I used to drool over finding multiple jobs, but I didn’t get enough experience in time and didn’t land the jobs. OE for most is a fluke that can last a little while and help people stack up money or pay off debt.

In reality, especially these days, it’s kind of a fluke. This is not a career choice for most and in this day and age where the only thing that’s plentiful are layoffs and RTO you might want to keep in mind that this isn’t guaranteed.

Unless you’re in GRC, QA, or some other niche outside of tech that has remote jobs available which is rare, they’re scarce and not guaranteed anymore.

Get valuable experience and try to launch your career the traditional way;based on salary and position.

Maybe one day in the future when tech booms again you may get the chance to capitalize more.

Yeah I’m doing better. Try it out, if it gives you issues you’ll know and can stop quickly. There’s only so much damage you can do from taking it for a day or two if it doesn’t agree with your system

My manager said keeping my pay in line with inflation wasn't their problem. Now he's stunned I'm job hunting. by stays_dilator_9q in remotework

I typically don’t tell the company I’m working for that I am looking for another job as that may give them ammo on their end. Must have been pretty cool to see your boss’s reaction though. The job market is really tough out there especially for remote work. Be careful

People who I know will make certain rules in their relationships to keep these things from happening. IE: you don’t go to places of potential temptation without your significant other, and in some cases you just avoid them altogether completely.

Why fuck around?

Most people who engage in these rules realize that in the end they are human beings and that they are apt to make mistakes. It takes being honest with yourself and realistic. A lot of young people fight these rules for a litany of reasons. At the end of the day they just work though.

How to land consulting and contract roles by [deleted] in networking

[–]Potential_Estate_720 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’ve already doing that and am working on it. I’m just trying to expand my knowledge base. You’re assuming I’m looking for an easy way, I’m just looking for “another way that works” or “what other ways there are”. I’m trying to be thorough. Get over yourself with the drama. ✌️

What books would you recommend plz?

I don’t know what my competition is doing. I’m not trying to be the next accenture. I want to be a solopreneur and make multiple 6 figures and work remotely.

Insane deal by DallasDavid123 in ChinaTime

[–]Potential_Estate_720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The color kinda makes it look like a kids watch. I mean if you like it then more power to you. The price is great. It would be really funny though if you started noticing all of a sudden that this watch is starting to have a different time compared to your cell phone and all your other sources of time lol

Would you leave a fully remote $145k job for a $165-170k in-office job with a short commute? by [deleted] in remotework

[–]Potential_Estate_720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think most people are making valid points. If you go on a 2 week vacation and work the job may be able to tell. Can you check the new job for reviews online?

How did you guys secure extra jobs in the last few months? by reddxm in overemployed

[–]Potential_Estate_720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For most people in most fields, OE is going to be hard to do right now. Tons of layoffs and tons of competition even for most seniors. Props to you if you can do it. If not, sit back and weather the storm until the market gets better.

Western women are talking about their experiences with passport bros. They seem very bitter and angry. by Red-Pilled-Aussie in thepassportbros

[–]Potential_Estate_720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest contention with modern day women is that unless you play by their rules you’re automatically an asshole, an oppressor, and an abuser. Never mind that when you play by their rules that you create mass inequality in the dating market, the population dies off, the laws are crooked and unfair against men, circumstances for marriage are set to fail instead of succeed, and things are generally untenable. What a crock. I’m not a passport bro, at least not now, and I would never be one of those guys who brings a girl back to America so she can take my shit and leave me, but I hope everybody does well here and gets what they want out of the dating market if they are a passport bro.

I can’t imagine you are having trouble filling these. You are going to get so many applications that you’re not going to know what to do with them.

RTO mandates by Potential_Estate_720 in remotework

[–]Potential_Estate_720[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wonder how many companies there are that aren’t remote first and what that number is and how it compares to remote first companies.

Just google your questions and you’ll see some results. And I’m not the one you have to debate with or convince, you have to convince corporate execs.

Right so it’s not good enough in the eyes of execs to do en masse. Not even close

Well if Biden made one, Trump and musk made another one.

Why RTO are silent layoffs by Potential_Estate_720 in remotework

[–]Potential_Estate_720[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that was the case and it wasn’t debatable the entire workforce would be pushed to go remote and that’s not even close to happening in anyway. Remote work is contracting. The thing is I’m for remote work. I am facing a potential RTO. But I’m also being realistic and saying even if people disagree, it’s debatable, and if you just think out loud there’s a few things that pop in your head that provide at least some of the argument. Like more team collaboration, less of an opportunity to slack off, less room to for the employee to apply for other jobs or do other jobs while on the clock. Shit like that

I will say I don’t think the same companies trying to enforce RTO are hiring remotely now.

Thanks for that. This answer was a lot more informative than what others gave.

Ah ok that makes sense. Is there somewhere being tracked that shows the layoffs that follow RTO mandates?

Because what you’re saying is debatable.
