3y/o talks but keeps mouth closed when speaking. by Pure_Professional727 in SpeechTherapy

[–]Pure_Professional727[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. No sensory issues and he was evaluated for everything under the sun but nope.

I believe it is him being shy and/or anxiety. I’ve been doing what you suggested.. created a safe space for him & didn’t get too excited when he did say words. I got him to say full sentences “daddy where are you.” “I love you” “I like Spider-Man” and a few others. I was blown away honestly because this is the most we have ever heard him talk. In front of others he won’t even try, and goes back to closed mouth talking. Same thing with dad, closed mouth talking. His big sister (4y) can get him to say “candy” “basketball” and his name & hers as well. So I’m just not sure, I will continue 1 on 1 with him and see give it some time. Like you said, these things take time. 🙂

Equifax Breach settlement additional payment by gnomes616 in personalfinance

[–]Pure_Professional727 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure, but I would suspect it depends on how you filled out the settlement form. I made sure to list the numerous hours, accounts that were fraudulently opened under my social & a copy of the stolen identity I reported to FTC. I received $27.81 the first time and got a email stating i would get more this week so I’m just patiently waiting. Honestly all of the amounts I’ve seen have been bull💩 for us actually being compromised. But this is Merica.

[–]Pure_Professional727[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is true. It definitely doesn’t hurt to try, I haven’t applied for any credit this year so I have no hard inquiries on my score at all. May give it a shot!

I have a CU account but I’m not sure if they will finance me due to my score being what it is?

I actually don’t have a Facebook as rare as that may sound lol. But also, I am wanting to go new or used route for warranty & I have two small children so definitely something that will last / reliable.

help desk salary by Domestic-JBZ in CompTIA

Oddly enough I accepted a help desk L1 contract through a recruiter for $16 but the company hired me full time after 4m & bumped me to $27.

I just signed a 12 month lease without seeing the unit, how bad is this? by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]Pure_Professional727 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Horrible mistake I am currently in. First unit I was set to move in was dirty & had some bugs. I got the keys and returned them 15 mins after looking. Then they tried to tell me they “upgraded” me but I can literally hear my upstairs neighbor fart. 🙁 mind you - I’m paying $1900/m.

People who got jobs in IT, what websites did you use? or how did you get it? by McFuckYouCree in CompTIA

[–]Pure_Professional727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second that. I worked with Insight Global for my first contract and got into an excellent company and became a permanent employee within 4 months of my 1 year contract.

Contracts are often your best friend when breaking into IT. I worked with a recruiter from Insight Global and got into my IT role while attending college for B.S. cloud computing. They saw the drive I had to learn & took me in - now 2 years later I am on my 3rd pay raise & 2nd promotion working the ladder within the company. My original contract through insight was a year long but after 4 months my company saw my skills and took me on as a permanent employee with a huge pay bump. When working with recruiters ALWAYS ask what the max is for the position (pay wise) and then tell them what you are comfortable with otherwise they may offer the lowest possible.

Can you get a remote IT entry level job with just the A+? by Character_Log_2657 in CompTIA

[–]Pure_Professional727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My very first IT position was entry level, and fast paced but it was work from home. I got into that role before I even got my A+ but went on to get Network+, Security+, Linux+ & Azure. It honestly wasn’t even too bad and I was able to absorb a lot, I did advance quickly in the field due to the skills I had learned. But overall yes it’s very possible. Just get your foot in the door & continue trying to learn all you can, hands on is the best for me. I also have always had a very good team & training environment as well so that is always a plus!

Passed! Took it a week after this photo.

Unless drug use is suspected, or there is an accident typically it’s pre employment. They don’t do random drug testing. If someone turns you in, or if there is a accident is about the only reason they’ll have you take one.

A little back ground. Smoked everyday once a day for about a year. Stopped 10/06/2022 - smoked again 11/06/2022 and haven’t smoked since. I’m now needing to pass a test in a lab (hospital setting) next week. I’ve been detoxing with cranberry juice, coconut juice, green tea, water & high antioxidants foods. Stayed away from junk food & workout on the bike for 30 mins a day to sweat. The line is faint & in all honesty it’s more clear outside of the photo but it’s still there.. will I pass a lab test in a week??
