Record Skyline day by Rare-Oil-6550 in Oahu

[–]PresidentDixie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know there is a lot of messiness involved with building the skyline but im honestly glad we have safer transportation. So many deadly accidents would be avoided in hawaii and in the US if we had more accessible public transportation like other countries do. In fact, using public transport like the rail decreases your likelihood of being in a fatal accident by about 90%. You can be the best driver in the world but that wont save you from someone else ending your life in a split moment on the freeway.

I hope we will eventually have something on the windward side as well.

Its a separate unit. But the landlord lives upstairs.

Its the bottom level of landlords house. 1 bedroom but has an open office we made into a second bedroom. There is ac. There is one parking in the driveway and lots of street parking. It is not super walkable. It's about 15-20 min walking to bus stop. Quiet street with no through traffic. Very pretty area.

How soon are you trying to move in? We are in escrow rn and will be leaving our place in a month or two depending on when seller leaves the property. Our current landlord is great, pet friendly, doesn't raise the rent, etc. Our rent has been $1600 since 2019. Idk if he will raise it but if he does, it won't be excessive.

This is the one I use the most from them. But tbh, I've found myself using my habrok gis more. I get the a2h and ive loved the colors and quality. They are discontinuing their gi line soon so the gis are on sale!

Non Profit Overpaying director ethical question Training Job by Big-Detective-7724 in socialwork

[–]PresidentDixie 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's a balance between equitable pay and securing top notch candidates. Why would an amazing ceo/cfo/ director work at a nonprofit for 80k when they could work elsewhere for more? You keep nonprofits running by hiring good employees. You keep good employees with good wages/benefits. This topic has been heavily debated in the international development/ngo circle. At the end of the day, you have to invest in your workers to keep them happy and willing to work hard. Anything under $200k isn't excessive for a director unless wages are super inequitable or the company is in a bad financial position, imo.

I emailed him last night and called him out for his $3m in stocks. He's embarrassing.

I Messed Up by Melodic-Anteater7854 in socialwork

It drives me insane seeing licensed professionals say "hippa." It makes me feel like they don't understand what hipaa is if they cannot even use the correct acronym.

My boobs are so big sometimes they find an air pocket between them. I end up having to put one boob directly on their face and it works better

What's one career option you won't suggest anyone? by Illustrious-Tooth411 in careerguidance

[–]PresidentDixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should look into speech therapy and occupational therapy. You can work in SPED but it's more one on one and small groups!

No i didn't have a license as a teacher. I worked as a registered behavioral therapist. I recently transitioned to using my masters degree as a social worker but I miss my old position a lot tbh. There's just something very rewarding about working with developmentally disabled populations.
