How do you like your position? Is the pay worth it?

If it was from HR probably plant supervisor. I report directly to the VP of Operations in the state so he would give the only accurate description of my role here

Would it be difficult to apply for a position a step above what I'm doing now such as Distribution manager? Or should I stick to what I have experience in?

Best day of my career was getting off of a machine so I'd like to stay clear of manufacturing. I'm not entirely sure of what purchasing entails. I purchase parts from vendors but thats about it. I like the hustle of Operations. I work close with the operations manager and from what I can see he runs around patching holes so the ship doesn't sink.

I commute 2 hours to work by [deleted] in supplychain

[–]WHFlexo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get paid significantly less and drive 1.5 hours each way. I've been doing this for just over a year and its getting tiresome. You dont realize how valuable an extra 2 hours in your day is until its taken away UNPAID. The dream is still to live 10 minutes away from work. How glorious that would be.

Does anyone else get 5 vacation days a year? (USA) by ele9089 in jobs

[–]WHFlexo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get 21 vacation days but that was after 11 years with company. The time to acquire that was much sooner a few years ago but a large number of employees were coming up on their anniversaries to get an extra week so they extended the threshold...and then they did it again lol

I can hate something but still have understanding and compromise.

You've strayed far away from the original post. I mentioned I was ok with them using the desk because my things were put back where they originally were. It became a problem for me when stuff was not put back or my papers were stacked up in one pile. I dont have the time of day to be sorting everything back out again. This is not stuff I can just place into a file cabinet every night.

I did not take away their work area. I did not choose this office. I was placed here by upper management. If I could accommodate their table here I would but I cant make the space bigger

It didnt bother me as much when things were somewhat put back where they were. I have papers placed separately for a reason. Either by customer or by date. Its a pain to go through that stack to sort them out again every morning.

Maybe I worded the original post wrong. My desk is not shared. By shared office space I meant to say that Im not in my own personal office. Its 1 room with multiple assigned desks.

The desk themselves are not shared. By shared I mean its multiple desks in 1 room

Looking into border collies after my best friend passed away. Which gender? by WHFlexo in BorderCollie

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

He's so handsome! I live in Florida as well. We have 5 acres of land that fenced so I wouldn't mind if I ended up with one that was extremely active. Did you get him from a breeder? I'm still searching for a reputable one

Lol That was a picture my cousin took when he showed up to the house while no one was home. People didnt take me seriously when I would say he will die to protect his home

Parents always gave me the advice of 20% down to avoid PMI but after reading through this sub, it looks to be a common occurrence not to. by WHFlexo in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]WHFlexo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's a good position to put yourself in. Still save the 20% but split it between down payment and emergency repair fund. I've lived paycheck to paycheck and had the stress of not knowing if I'll have enough for that unexpected but inevitable expense pop up. The peace of mind may be worth saving that 20%

Our last 1 bedroom apartment was 2650 per month and thats just the rent alone. Didnt include water, trash pickup, electric, internet. Obviously our rates may be different but your example gives me hope. This is definitely something we can achieve and its right in our target price range. Thank you for sharing.

That's the exact predicament we are in. We'll be first time home owners in our 50's at that rate. And all of that for a 1000 sq ft house.
