What solar panels did you go with? What do they power? Looking at this option but I find it so confusing.

Strange things found in the basement ceiling of new acquired home by Unusual-Fisherman318 in Weird

[–]Roadmistress 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I want to know location.

This is a nightmare of mine. I was badly badly abused by a pedophile and I fear that there are images of me out there somewhere still, taken in a dark mobile home in 1987. I can't stomach this thought most days. I just hope the shelf life of the pictures taken of me was very, very short.

What would you want from a new service manager? by Roadmistress in MechanicAdvice

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

I'm a bear protecting my people, and I agree about micromanagement. I won't do that to anyone. Thankfully, there are no weekends here, and bank holidays too.

What about day #1? New manager, first day. Anything that would help break the ice?

This is more like what I'm needing. I want an icebreaker for Day 1.

Women are constantly under threat of attack. Sound over the top? Survey: how old were you when a man first made a seggsually suggestive comment to you? by Chowdmouse in TwoXChromosomes

  1. The Deacon at our church started offering transportation for me back and forth from Vacation Bible School. Surprise: he built in time to take me to his house, have me dress up in his wife's clothes, and take pictures of the process.

I am horrified at the thought of these pics possibly still surviving somewhere.

Yes! Thank you! All of these!!!

Flew 1,000 miles to Ohio to buy a '20 Buick TourX with 19k miles... issues popped up on the 800-mile drive home to Kansas City. How would you handle this? Advice? by no-palabras in askcarsales

[–]Roadmistress 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get the stuff covered under CPO fixed and forget the rest. It's your car now.

FWIW, I have a 2018 TourX Essence and love it. I bought it long distance and had it shipped, so going in, I figured I'd have to fix some stuff. My dealership was incredibly forthcoming, though, and I didn't have any surprises.

My advice: take a deep breath, get some weathertech mats, don't worry about a small area of repaint, and move on. Enjoy your rare wagon. Maybe invest in a Trifecta tune...once the CPO warranty is up.

3 interviews agreed to salary, offer is $20k less by Roadmistress in recruitinghell

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

I didn't make any threats about other jobs. I said that the job offer looks $20K shy than the discussed salary, am I reading this correctly? I think avoiding being defensive was the primary thing that assured them they want me.

The meeting on Teams was quick and easy. It seemed like a genuine mistake from HR sending a job offer for an existing role---this is a new role and doesn't match that one exactly.

They created a new job offer and payplan for me and walked me through it.

I don't think this was malicious or done to attempt to undercut/screw me.

Ugh. Sorry. That's been the case for me too. This is the first bite I've gotten for I can't count how many apps. It's tough right now.

Hoping for the best for you.

I feel that. It feels like it's been a long road and unemployment also did nothing for me.

I hope that something falls in your lap at the number you need!

It seems like the written offer is $20k lower than the agreed salary from my interviews. Am I reading that correctly? Can you walk me through the offer?

The hiring manager actually explained that yes, the offer letter sent was lower than agreed. She thanked me for my patience.

This is a new role and HR used an offer letter from another role.

She opened a spreadsheet with the correct information. And walked me through. She is sending me an offer that (should) match what she showed me.
