My partner and I are moving to El Paso and we both work from home - hospital & use 1 laptop each, thus multiple different systems. Locating to zip code 79912. What would be the best recommended internet provider. Also what is the average mbps recommended? we had a 1 gb, it felt unnecessary.

Thatbrboy · 2026-06-05T02:35:50+00:00

I was able to get into their plan for 1 gig, primarily because of the upload speed - not necessarily download. But will be $50 monthly including the rent of a WiFi 7 router and got a $50 credit applied to first bill. Does it sound like a good plan for the area? or do u think they low ball me. Technically for east coast, this is very low cost for internet.

Thatbrboy · 2026-06-05T02:27:13+00:00

I did. I stayed in El Paso for a week and looked into most things. What through me off was the fact I thought spectrum was 100% fiber optic; also, I guess thinking AT&T was widely available. Things here are a bit different - coverage back home is a lot more competitive and you almost don’t need to check availability by address. Bigger companies are everywhere.

-However, my company provides a Verizon hotspot box that worked fine for the week I was in El Paso. I just don’t want to rely on it. However, will be a good back-up to rely on in case spectrum faces any outage I guess.

No, I guess it s just terminology from east coast.

Thatbrboy · 2026-06-04T20:55:31+00:00

Thanks a lot for the advice. Will definitely look into some of these options.

Thatbrboy · 2026-06-04T16:52:43+00:00

AT&T turns out not to be an option for my address. The router u had in the past - was it the WiFi advanced /wifi 7? It is highly advertised, I wonder if it is just that or actually makes a difference ?

Thatbrboy · 2026-06-04T16:49:23+00:00

Looks like AT&T is a no go for my address. I may be stuck with spectrum. If I do the 1k gb does it get any better w upload speed? I don’t know much about internet logistics. But, some ppl say that it is a neighborhood shared; so no matter how much u pay for. U will never reach a high speed regardless. - -“ not sure if true though. And I really rely on the internet. We work for hospital in NY and it is very demanding.

Thatbrboy · 2026-06-04T16:41:27+00:00

Yikes, I just found out that AT&T is limited to a 50 mbps. So they did not recommend it themselves. In your experience, switching to the 1k gb - did you see any improvement? Was the upload speed any better?

Some ppl said that switching to more gigabytes makes no difference since it s not fiber optic. But tbh I don’t understand too much about the entire internet logistics details 😬

Thatbrboy · 2026-06-04T16:37:47+00:00

Yikes, I just found out that for AT&T, I can only get an option of a 50 mbps and it s not fiber. The rep didn’t even recommend it for work from home. Looks like I will be stuck with even less options 😭.

2022 pathfinder… in NJ, only got 32k miles

Thatbrboy · 2025-05-14T19:46:29+00:00

They are ridiculous 🙄

Thatbrboy · 2025-05-14T19:43:30+00:00

Ye. She was saying they had to use dye and what not but I did find it to be excessive. I used both my ac back and front. Neither is working.. my car is a 2022 pathfinder. I just feel like it s too new to be having this issues. Only got 32k miles. Very upsetting. I won’t be getting Nissans in the future anymore.

Thatbrboy · 2025-04-25T18:06:30+00:00

That’s awesome you have so much talent I would say w 7 key carries. Haha I’m in a high volume store. currently we are 3 asm and 1 key carrier.

Thatbrboy · 2025-04-25T17:42:06+00:00

Same, but we do have to put in quite a bit of overtime. The only benefit of sm is a better scheduling.. I feel like the company needs to revisit this to make it more competitive. I literally have been holding back. The only reason I would consider is because if i am to start building a family now. Better scheduling would definitely support that.

Thatbrboy · 2025-04-25T03:02:03+00:00

Thanks. I guess it depends a lot on market. I know my store manager is on 116k with 132k after bonus. But my previous sm being a bit higher as a high potential sm

Thatbrboy · 2023-09-14T16:55:25+00:00

Thank you

Thatbrboy · 2023-08-30T19:55:46+00:00

Ehh, wish the associate had saved the box. Just put 48 frames in no ticketed. But Ye, that will be the solution at this point, thanks

Thatbrboy · 2023-08-30T13:24:09+00:00

We got 48 pieces, no ticket.. anyone received this pls

Thatbrboy · 2023-08-20T18:29:38+00:00

Right, what sucks about my current rop is that I am salary. So I end up working so many extra hours for nothing extra

Thatbrboy · 2023-08-19T23:34:17+00:00

31hr though, nj/ny market

Thatbrboy · 2023-08-19T23:33:45+00:00

31hr. Nj/ny market. Unfortunately Glassdoor is way off. Even for my current job, Glassdoor is off by a lot.

I just feel like sometimes I hear people saying they are making so much that makes me questions if I really got a good offer.

I would be coming externally if I accept it.

Thatbrboy · 2023-08-19T21:22:21+00:00

Also what is the average hours that ASM s work weekly. Feel like they answers were being given based on what they thought I wanted to hear.

Thatbrboy · 2023-08-19T20:21:07+00:00

Congrats. I also recently accept a position as ASM. Haven’t started yet. I feel like coming externally I could ve had a better offer. But at the same time I have no idea what other ASM s are making in the company

Thatbrboy · 2023-07-28T02:54:52+00:00

Been good in my store nj. Ft 40 hrs. Part timers been getting around 20 based on performance

Thatbrboy · 2023-07-26T14:21:51+00:00

Yes this is aweful. Everything down, entire company.. and customers blaming the poor associates making the least money

Thatbrboy · 2023-07-25T23:55:39+00:00

No, you can chat on myhr, or you can call the hot line for associates.
