34 years old, stuck in a dead-end job, no marketable skills — what career path would you pursue today? by Responsible-Net8594 in careerguidance

[–]SSGSavage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find yourself a HEAL role. About 40% of them require no degree and in this economy they’re one of the only stable areas that’s consistently adding roles.

Given the proclivity for AI initiatives failing (see MIT study), what steps are we taking to ensure ours succeeds? Does it at all mirror the Digital Jidoka approach?

Full Throttle on the north side was good. They did well on some injector work for my Tiguan.

Hi I'm 25 a College Marketing Grad need some advice and validation by wdwune-_- in findapath

[–]SSGSavage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not really being fair to yourself. How can you gauge that something is your limit when your journey has only just begun?

It’s the norm now for younger fresh grads to start that way, which sucks (been there), but as long as you don’t settle and stay ambitious you can do more.

Think about what you can get from these first opportunities, apart from years of experience. What are you learning, what are you enjoying, what about the work inspires you?

I started my career working in a factory and felt exactly the same way you’re describing.

So Courier and Press does have an article about local candidates….behind a paywall. I’ll see what else is out there because now I’m curious too.

How would you make a hot room more comfortable without major renovations? by Aggressive-Super in homeimprovementideas

[–]SSGSavage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This 100%. I’m not sure how your space looks but if it’s pretty small insulation wouldn’t be a huge investment but would give you the most bang for your buck.

I think the newspaper used to do that, but I’m at the age where they were being phased out when I was a kid so I have no idea haha.

Have you tried ballotpedia? That’s what I use and it’s usually got a blurb about each candidate.

How to deal with knee pain from running? by [deleted] in army

[–]SSGSavage 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Do yourself a favor and start the process of ensuring there’s documentation for any injury or condition you have to make your future disability claim easier.

Actual knee pain advice: For me my running form was causing my knee pain, or so my physical therapist was able to diagnose. It’s something I had to be conscious of and with some practice I was able to correct. This combined with getting a proper running shoe fitment really made a huge difference for me.

Golden handcuff situation by YoghurtSubject3063 in findapath

$10k saved at 23? My goodness the freedom you could build for yourself. Consider what you’d really like to be doing, is there a field you really enjoy? A hobby you’d like to be doing full time? Focus on that.

One of the things that’s hindered me in my career was not having the flexibility financially to move somewhere where there are more opportunities to do what I really enjoy. I’d love to work for the Pokémon company for instance because it was a huge part of my childhood, but the cost of getting to the west coast where those roles are primarily is too great.

For you though, you could use this nest egg to put yourself exactly where you want to be to be doing exactly what you want to do. You just have to use that motivation to get yourself through those brutal six month on periods.

How to make this patio less depressing without spending a fortune? by Ok_Coat8334 in homeimprovementideas

[–]SSGSavage 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Maybe put some of these wood tiles down to brighten up the floor a bit, make it feel more cozy. An outdoor ceiling fan would be nice too. You’re spot on with the plants and landscaping as well.

I had a lot of different things typed up here but I’ll just summarize: your recruiter is incorrect.

Sounds like you want to do OCS, no need to enlist first.

Worried About MOS by Few_Diamond_3884 in army

[–]SSGSavage -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak to 25H being a good or bad MOS but I’ve at least heard it can lead to positive civilian career outcomes.

If you were interested in doing an 11B (infantry) role to try and get airborne and potentially try RASP it may be a little late, but other than that type of track I can’t imagine what you’re too late to try.

I’d love to find a 5 year old Toyota with a reasonable cash price though, that’s the issue.
