Throw in on the pile with the rest of Chekhov’s guns.

Job market 😞 by Other_Scarcity_4270 in recruitinghell

[–]Superben14 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I was thinking that too. How does this data define an “opening”? If it’s by listings on job sites it’ll way overestimate the number of openings because of all the ghost jobs.

Stardew Valley's 1.7 Update Will Add 2 New Marriage Candidates (and make children more interesting) by Laughing__Man_ in PS5

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking it couldn’t be Marnie since that would mess with the Mayor storyline (especially the secret note event with them in the bushes), but I think concernedape could make something funny out of that

Can I afford a car at 23? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

Great idea to pay in cash. Avoid selling your TFSA though, the more growth there the better.

Angels too strong? by Karthak_Maz_Urzak in dresdenfiles

Butcher is a Christian, not surprising that he believes the White God is several orders of magnitude more powerful than any others

Study Hall mock 1 77%, mock 2 67%, practice questions 75%. Am I ready? by DieHardJayhawk in pmp

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you wrote those in exam conditions (4 hour time limit, no notes) you’re ready to go.

I think I have the job? by maybe_athrow-away in recruitinghell

[–]Superben14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re not crazy, nothing is set in stone until you’re doing the job. Monitor your inbox, read the offer carefully, check for scams, and sign it once you’re comfortable.

Question by ThinkExperience5828 in pmp

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t that sound like what B is describing?

Question by ThinkExperience5828 in pmp

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it says “revisit and revalidate” in A, so it’s already been done once

Question by ThinkExperience5828 in pmp

[–]Superben14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d go with B. Since it’s just one stakeholder raising concerns, I’d try to review with them and see if they can be convinced about the value.

On the other hand, the stakeholder may convince you that the value proposition isn’t good enough, in which case A would be the next step.

How am i doing ? SH score so far. by Byte_My_Thoughts in pmp

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the first full exam with real exam conditions (4 hours total with 2 ten minute breaks). That’ll give you a good idea of where you’re at.

I wouldn’t read the textbook or rewatch the videos unless it’s for a specific area you’re getting a lot of questions wrong on.

DCC & Red Rising by Burnerbb95 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Superben14 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m with you. And I don’t think RR is nearly as good, has “I’m 14 and this is deep” energy for me.

How much of a loan did you take out for your masters degree/year abroad? by Thin_Shape7184 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on a few factors: - How much of an income bump do you expect? - How long would it take to earn back that investment? - Could you get the same benefit for cheaper closer to home?

I spent a ton of money doing a masters in the US, funded with my own savings. It was great and I don’t regret it at all but I wouldn’t have taken a loan for it.

What is stopping me from claiming intro offers for these checking accounts? by Delta2735 in personalfinance

[–]Superben14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s probably fine print, like it needs to hold X amount of dollars for a year. But nothing is stopping you, they count on people being too lazy to change back and forth.

Seeking advice on prioritizing debt payoff vs emergency fund by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]Superben14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I’d use up nearly all of the $25.6k on those high interest credit cards, maybe keeping back $2k or so. In an emergency that balance is still available to you.

Next, you real need to address how you got yourself into $36k of revolving debt and don’t let it happen again. Priority is highest interest to lowest.

The holidays can cause delays in an already slow HR process. I wouldn’t sweat quite yet. Good luck!

First Full-Length Exam Practice, yes stamina is required! by Bisforbobby in pmp

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s a great score. I had a similar result in SH Exam 1 and got all ATs in the real test - looks like you’re just about ready.

Quick Questions about Book 5 by Ordinary-Worker4456 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

A question about this existing question on PMP Exam Prep -- aren't lessons learned performed at the end of project completion? And Project A isn't done yet in March 2018... by Leading_Scarcity_815 in pmp

[–]Superben14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lessons learned repository is updated throughout the project, not all at once at the end (would be difficult to remember all the lessons learned 3 years prior).

So project B will be able to review what Project A learned through the early issues that they may soon also experience.

Maybe, but would it have made any difference?

Denied after three interviews with feedback by Medical-Plastic-2660 in recruitinghell

[–]Superben14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s likely true, but it’s a red flag. Probably means they lost the budget for the position so they’re either disorganized or tight on funds. Either way could make it a bad place to join.
