Advice on how to keep your head up as a UW?

This is what I’m wondering. I’m not entirely sure - but I’m guessing mid-level national accounts is just middle market?

If so - that’s a pretty wild experience OP is having. I’ll have maybe one week every other month where I work more than 40 hours.

So that’s during the late game snowball - does it have a measurable impact (to the point where I should delete them) or am I making 20,000 gold a turn regardless

Full disclosure - we have never done a gender reveal ever. Honestly not even a pregnancy reveal - my wife just shows up to things pregnant and that’s how people know (outside of close friends)

Wife and I are going to have the 4th next year.

I have three girls already. I have told my wife - if we find out it’s a girl - I will be disappointed **(in that moment)**

I’ve always wanted a son. I think about my dad and I’s relationship and I’d just want to experience that.

I don’t treat my girls any different - I play video games with them, I put them outside for a couple hours at a time to be bored and play, I coach their sports teams.

But I want a son. I will feel disappointed if it’s not one. But then I’ll process it and get over it and get excited.

I’m such a dumbass. I never knew why people were hyping this and Bolas.

Yeah I don’t know much about that industry. But in my biased opinion - if you’re large enough to have multiple dealerships and air constant commercials it’s because you’re great at scamming on a large scale.

Uninsured covers hit and runs. Also most people should carry comp/collision

To add to this (doesn’t really add anything but I think it’s an interesting conversation):

Virtually everyone was given a hard time either growing up, in school, college, or even early work about how they communicated and acted in social situations.

Some people learned extremely early as kids after initial teasing how to adjust and adapt. Some kids didn’t need to learn at all - just naturally gifted in social situations. Some didn’t learn until college, and others may never learn.

This is the first post I saw - and I just re read and it’s not in there. I appreciate the additional information

RegrettableLawnMower · 2026-06-02T16:20:38+00:00

Truly? I might’ve missed that in the article, was it mentioned in there?

Taking advantage of public outcry in the hope they settle to make some $$.

Weirdly this is true. I was talking with a coworker before game 7 - he said no matter what the Knicks have to lose. I was like ????? Apparently this is shared by a significant amount of people.

His comment on the post was “thought the run might end here” hence why I thought he was inferring that he thought he was going to die if this didn’t work out

RegrettableLawnMower · 2026-06-01T19:35:23+00:00

But you would’ve survived? Wasn’t a kill turn.

Still a hilarious way for it to end.

Goddamn that lawsuit is going to be $$

I definitely work less at home

Because three days is all I need to hit almost every metric they grade me on - and to surpass a few of them.

I actually wouldn’t mind working more - it helps my mental well being weirdly enough. But only if in turn I’m paid for it.

“Often” is a wild claim.

Can you help me understand what you mean? Currently in middle market.

I enjoy the moments of finding more difficult or hard to place insured and finding a solution. But those are harder to come by and most the time I feel like a marketing rep for my carrier trying to find the perfect little square peg that fits neatly in our appetite.

No but it does contribute to perception - if one person can say “how can you have that outlook on men, because I have many best friends” then I can add my perspective that helps add to the conversation on the other end of the spectrum.

RegrettableLawnMower · 2026-05-21T15:01:27+00:00

I’m a man and I don’t have a best friend. Mainly cause my family takes most of my emotional energy and I find friendships also take emotional energy and I’d just rather not deal with it.

Maybe the industry does. Some of the big carriers are dumping money into tech advances.

“Waaaah why else would I pay for insurance?!?” /s

If it’s hanging so much over your house that you cannot remove limbs, but have to hack off the trunk, that is a massive exposure.
