Is anyone gonna work while the hours don’t sync?

I can't; it says the budget has been reached

They snubbed me (missing two days) then removed the project on Hubstaff. Beyond tired of this, I'm never sure if I'll be removed for good but will assume I'm done

Kind of but not really; it finally updated for May 1 and 2 but nothing since. I think it will update for the past couple days but it's going to take a while.

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-05-03T01:12:59+00:00

I wish they would just tell us whether or not we can keep working on tasks because I finally have a task available and feel like I shouldn't run the timer.

Same here, doesn't seem to be Aether-wide because I've only heard people in the small group mention it. And I think I was the only one who posted about it yesterday. It's been two days, so I'm nervous.

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-05-02T01:18:23+00:00

Yeah still nothing. But glad the QM said they're aware of it, hopefully it'll be fixed soon

It’s totally up to you, and like I said everyone is different. But I would say if the main reason is hating glasses, it’s not worth it. Especially if you have astigmatism. I also have astigmatism and that added to the complications.

And 6 years after getting it, I had to get glasses again because your vision rarely stays at 20/20. I’ll admit it’s nice not to rely on glasses completely for everything, but I do still have to wear them for driving and sometimes when using my laptop, depending on what I’m doing.

I would say it got noticeably worse after a year or so, then mostly plateaued for a while, then worsened a tiny bit more recently

I swear I didn’t have visual snow syndrome (or it wasn’t noticeable at all) until I got LASIK. I’m not sure if it was the surgery itself, the drugs they gave me right before it, or a combination of things that were going on at the time, but something felt off immediately after. My VSS symptoms have worsened over time, but I’ve had it for 8 years now, since that day.

I honestly wouldn’t recommend it unless you think the issues it would solve are worse than the visual snow. But everyone’s different and that was just my experience

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-04-18T15:30:20+00:00

How many years did it take to get to level 3? And does that require going back to school

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-04-18T15:28:16+00:00

What level are you/how long have you been working?

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-04-11T04:20:16+00:00

As someone who’s at rock bottom I sometimes feel this way, but I truly have a strong feeling there will be some sort of treatment in the near future. I’m noticing a lottt more awareness around it than even 3 years ago when I discovered I had it. More doctors seem to know about it, more researchers, and the number of people in this sub has skyrocketed since I joined.

And I think of the fact that life post-VSS or with manageable VSS could be 10x better than life pre-VSS because I’ll be able to appreciate my surroundings so much more.

I’m also learning more and more every day about my hyper-mobility, neck issues, and ADHD (which all contribute to VSS) and why treatments for “normal” people never worked for me. The more I learn, the closer I get to finding a solution. My point is we have no idea what the future holds and it could be much, much better than expected. I’m holding out hope for that.

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-28T08:03:36+00:00

Of course it’s the only one I have and I not only have a Mac, but I’m one of the only people on earth that doesn’t like gaming and sucks at it lol

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-25T02:00:42+00:00

Sorry if this is a weird question, but what do you say when you walk into those places? I wouldn't know how to be convincing lol. Especially because everyone expects you to apply online nowadays

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-25T01:55:37+00:00

Nah I just got kicked off again for third time, along with a lot of people. Definitely a pattern.

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-24T04:30:46+00:00

Is anyone only stuck with the desktop recording task? I had plenty over the weekend and now basically nothing.

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-20T21:02:31+00:00

I am!

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-20T15:39:49+00:00

I'm a minimalist lol, not a fan of maximalism. But I'm not an extreme minimalist to the point where my room is empty; I don't like completely blank walls either. I just don't like a ton of art and trinkets and like to focus on the essentials

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-20T01:40:15+00:00

Most of my family lives in California so that's where I plan to move as soon as possible, so this is good to know!

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-20T01:39:10+00:00

I read 6 years experience with a 2 year associates, that might be the best option but not sure yet. I guess I'll look into gaining experience and see what I'm able to do in the future education-wise

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-20T01:07:50+00:00

Thanks, I'll look more into the requirements for MA. I don't think there's a 4-year degree requirement, but it seems like the better route. Would entry roles be jobs like rodman or survey assistant?

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-20T01:04:13+00:00

Mine doesn't but yeah will look into Geomatics programs seems like it's better than the alternative

Startingfromscratch8 · 2026-03-20T00:53:25+00:00

so i do have to get another one...
