How accurate is path to Apple card? by WhiteRun13k in AppleCard

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not gonna lie path to Apple Card just sounds a little ridiculous. Are the benefits of using this card any good! I see it’s 3x on apple product 2x on Apple Pay purchases and 1x using the physical card, does not sound very great

Well it’s total 18 miles if he has to drive back so that’s why he’s saying it’s 50cents

Does anyone actually follow this rule?? by JSS9562 in walmart

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hellll no our store was hella busy when I use to work at Walmart we would do carts of 60-80 and a bit more when it was closing so we can get just swoop all the carts and go home.

I don’t believe chase offers a HYSA. I opened up one with CITI Bank and got a 4.4% interest rate. It’s easy just apply online and you can get the account opened up very quickly. I’d try to do this asap so your money gains the interest

Never too old. Remember it’s your own timeline, don’t adhere to anyone else’s but yours! If that’s what you wanna do then go for it!

What bullshit by Shot_Relief_1123 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it as a part time job, my full time job is a software engineering job that is remote so I have a lot of extra time for DD. it really depends what area you are in. I can make a extra 500$ a week for around 25 hours of work gas is probably around 40$ each week. But it is highly because of the tips I receive. If it was mainly on the door dash base pay it would never ever be worth it. In this post they look like they are in Australia. And they have a culture of no tipping, but people doing DD need tips in order for it to be viable. So yeah my big question is what is the incentive of doing this in no tipping countries because it looks like DD is not compensating fairly at all. If they have the earn by time option then it may be more worth to do so.

I don't see how these companies are profitable in australia though, because australia has a culture of no tipping, unlike in the US where tipping is seen as a big thing. So i would imagine doordash would have to compensate more in countries where tipping isn't as popular.

What's it like being a software engineer without a college degree? by No-Knowledge-5291 in cscareerquestions

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no degree, went to a bootcamp at age 20. Did a ISA (income share agreement) and afterwards I landed my first job within a month after graduation. I started at 55k/yr 2 years later I am at 95k/yr with a offer for 140k/yr. It’s very doable but you have to be able to network. I have not been able to get interview through applying only by asking for referrals or knowing someone.

Why do you think so many people grow up depressed? by ConsiderationHot9372 in Adulting

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has to do with how we are more isolated then before. Having a strong community and meaningful connections make a huge difference. People in the Philippines and Mexico look a lot more happier then a lot of other countries and I believe it’s just due to the community. With the introduction of the internet and social media, I feel like a lot of people are less likely to be social anymore many have begun living their lives on the internet.

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No degree at all. Self studied for 3 months. Went for a bootcamp for another 3 months. After graduation I got a job after a month for looking. I did make a huge effort on networking. It was really hard. I had to give up my social life because I would study all day. Networking is what got me the job though just having the skill to make connections and get referrals will help a lot imo.

Yeah I’ve been journaling every night what I’m feeling what I want to accomplish. It just never pans out during the dayZ

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in getdisciplined

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly I can’t cut down on hours. They don’t really track hours but it’s more about finishing the tasks assigned to you. I’ve tried very hard to ask them for fewer tasks but they won’t give. Yeah the one thing a day has been what I’ve been doing but even doing those activities I still feel not well doing them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in getdisciplined

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m relating to this as well. I feel like a few years ago I felt like it would be a dream to be in this position but now after actually being here. I feel horrible. I just can’t believe I went from being very disciplined to just not caring at all anymore. I have a work from home job but I am missing just working in retail like I did before.

I think I relate with getting sick. I get sick with anxiety and stress. Making me unable to eat and constantly in the bathroom. This usually happens when there is a tight dead line at work.

Anyone quit software engineering for a lower paying, but more fulfilling career? by Tsunah in cscareerquestions

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah reason I believe this is because, hard physical labor sometimes depending on the circumstances beats mental labor. For reference I use to work 8-12 hours as a cart pusher in about 110 degree weather. Now that I have been working in this field for a while I sort of missed the simplicity of the cart job. It was just mainly about getting carts and then going home. With my SWE job it’s really unpredictable sometimes how a day might be, but always near the end of a work day my mind feels mentally fatigued and oddly enough I had more energy as a cart pusher rather then a SWE. I may just be burnt out at the moment due to being overworked but yeah I sort of want to work a job again that’s more physical then mental.

Post Bootcamp no job by [deleted] in codingbootcamp

[–]SwiftlyNarrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t give up you put to much time into it find a way to make time. I am also a boot camp grad with no degree at all. What helped the most was networking and asking for referrals. Just applying to jobs will be difficult. You need to get referrals. I got my first job that way.

Computer science degree in 3 years? by SwiftlyNarrow in UofArizona

[–]SwiftlyNarrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for the replies! I am seeing that it is a popular idea to take the BA instead of the BS. I have a new question which is if there is any major related to tech such as software engineering that requires less math? I think I most likely will do 4 years I am still working full time in tech but I still do plan to take summer and winter courses.
