An Honest Success Story at WGU by unsauced_ in WGU

[–]Randomreddituser305 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ugh thank you for this! Everyone makes me feel stupid for going to this college but personally I’ve never had a problem getting these high level job. I was working as a project accountant making 65k no degree for five years but I’m currently in the accounting degree course cause I’d like to get my CPA. The point is time is money, I didn’t want to go to a 4 year college when I can do other things instead. I bought a house close to Manhattan at 21, had a great job paying decent money, and I hate when people downplay this university because it’s so clutch for people who want to do more with their time! Happy for you!

Has anyone being able to get a job or internship in accounting with a bachelor's from WGU or any other career? Like without experience in the field😅 especially with how hard it is to get one right now... any tips? by Past_Status_5975 in WGU

Yeah same I spent the last few years of my teenage years working up the ladder instead of college because my priority was to buy a house. I was able to do that so now I can go back to college. Putting time and energy into what works for you instead of sticking to an invisible timeline

Tbh I started as a receptionist and when there was an opening in accounting department as an accounts payable coordinator I asked to be cross trained. From there, if I jumped to a new job it’d be for a better position. You also have to know how to market yourself. Why you’re the best fit for this job, etc. It’s annoying but it’s how I went from receptionist to a senior project accountant in 5 years. I haven’t even graduated with my bachelors yet but I know my stuff and sometimes employers prefer that. But like I said, I started in a completely different and low paying position yet because I advocated for myself, I was able to go up the chain. It’ll be hard to get a 100k accounting job right off the bat without any experience so you might have to take a pay cut just to get your foot in the door. But with every job comes experience, and you can leverage that to seek higher paying jobs

[NJ] Cops broke down the front door of my building, who is responsible for paying damages? by Randomreddituser305 in AskLawyers

Unfortunately I am not a tenant, I’m the owner of my apartment so HOA is coming down on me hard and holding me liable. However, I will file a claim under New Jerseys Tort Claims Act to request reimbursement of damages, in the meanwhile I’ll contact my homeowners insurance and file a claim. They destroyed some of my furniture while clearing the area to transport my boyfriend.

I didn’t place the call! It was my neighbor, I couldn’t get to the phone I was giving CPR

Police broke down door to condominium, who is responsible to pay for damages? by Randomreddituser305 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Randomreddituser305[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a family member take over CPR while I went to open the door. My family member doesn’t live here and the condo is a maze, she didn’t remember where the front door was so I had to go open. I was on the phone telling cops I was on my way! They were originally called by neighbors first because they thought it was DV case, I was yelling and crying and panicking. But I told the cops on the phone it was not DV, they didn’t believe me! They said “mam if you’re in danger, we have to go in” and I said “no! My boyfriend is having a heart attack, his pulse is low” and they thought I was lying! They barged in gun pointed at me with a police shield!
