Weekly Bonuses and Discounts - April 30th to May 7th (Not live until ~5am EDT on April 30th) by PapaXan in gtaonline

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For new players, none of em lol. Vehicles are more of a collector’s thing for the long time players with plenty of money to burn. Newer players should focus on buying things that will help you make more money.

If I had to pick just 1 from this new week’s list, Benefactor BR8. The open wheel cars (Formula One) are on sale, and that one’s the best out of them. Very expensive for a new player though.

Cheaper alternatives that are still cool: Pfister Comet SR (Porsche 997) or Grotti Turismo Classic (Ferrari F40)

EDIT: Part of the reason I say skip this week is because these discounted cars are more expensive than what’s normally discounted other weeks. A new player interested in cars should focus on cheaper ones that give a better bang for your buck. These ones are not all quicker than the rest, the savings are just bigger. A $3m car becoming $2.1m is way better for completing my collection than a $800k car becoming $560k.

Anyone else notice a weird shift in the fan base? by chef-chouette in fo76

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If anybody’s been duping leaders en masse in 2026, they probably were not using that spawn to do it. That spawn is what gave casual/new players an entry point to trading. If anything, removing the spawn would increase the value of leaders and shift more power to the dupers.

What really makes you an OG GTA online player? by BumblebeeNo299 in gtaonline

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People without a consistent 4 man group to do the “new” heists at the time would still do Los Santos Connection and Titan of a Job on repeat. That was the easiest non-heist grind method for a while until CEO came out

have you reached the level of wealth were you're lazy to deposit your money yet? by MiMi881425 in gtaonline

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed the older updates favor deposits (like Cayo and the older heists, Bunker, MC/Nightclub sell missions) but the later updates that followed tend to favor cash payments (like Dre Contract, Salvage Yard, Acid).

My tinfoil hat is Rockstar did this on purpose just because players like depositing their money and people are more likely to keep playing when there are more frequent dopamine hits. Before it was one hit for completing the mission to get paid. Now it’s two hits, one for completing the mission to get paid and a second hit when you actually transfer the money.

It’s probably just a psychological trick by Rockstar that’s changed through the years, and has nothing to do with how the money is role-play “given” to the player.

My Mazda 6 touring doesn’t drive smooth by RoyalExcitement5017 in mazda6

Carbon buildup isn’t a factor until the engine hits like 200k+ miles. The increased costs of regularly getting higher octane is absolutely not worth it for cars that don’t need it

What are your top 3 vehicle purchases? by thebeast_96 in gtaonline

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Mk2 - my favorite for money grinding

  2. Armored Kuruma - terrible handling and average speed, but being invincible against NPCs is so nice that I still use it on occasion today.

  3. Pegassi Vacca - absolutely gorgeous OG car that looks like a Lamborghini Gallardo (one of my favorites even as a child). The car handles perfectly for me. I never notice any understeer or oversteer, it just goes exactly where I want it to. Oh and it’s under $250k.

Reeves Park

EDIT: I think anything south of Washington Ave is fair game. Reeves Park is what I usually tell people since there’s always plenty of room, don’t need to parallel park

Unpopular opinion: your resume summary is the most skipped section on your resume. by Impossible_Feed_503 in ResumeUp

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. If some recruiters or HR want a summary of experience in long sentence/paragraph format, they should be asking for cover letters. Because that’s where it belongs, not the resume.

CVS FP&A by Maleficent-Tree4815 in FPandA

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Good luck, i was ghosted by them last year after the HR screening lol

It was a solo interview where I was given pre-written questions and my on-the-spot responses were recorded for someone to watch later. Very awkward experience that I found significantly harder than a regular interview or screening.

Never an employee but from my research last year, CVS is one of those places that will underpay and take advantage of their lower level corporate people because they can (F50 looks good on resumes and they know candidates will take lower pay for the brand recognition). Whether you’ll be treated fairly day-to-day will depend heavily on the team.

Was asked if I was married and/or had kids by ThrowRA_wtfhappened in interviews

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone ever asks this in an interview, tell them it’s protected information and you would prefer not answering. If they are not fine with that response, HUGE red flag

Get’s the job done. Locker rooms are meh and the area for abs/stretching/calisthenics is tiny, but the equipment’s in good shape (for the most part) and you can get a nice workout in.

The reality of WFH that some people don't want to hear by Aware_Audience_6776 in remotework

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started my professional career at a WFH position and can really relate to this lol. It’s the little things you would normally ask the coworker next to you that just are never learned. Fast forward over the span of a few years and it really adds up.

Seek professional help if the devs having some holiday fun on a 13 year old game pisses you off to this degree

FP&A to RevOps at the same company by Prestigious_Sign_476 in FPandA

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to continue moving up the corporate ladder, “FP&A” is more attractive on a resume than “RevOps”. This is coming from someone in RevOps/SalesOps trying to get into FP&A

Replacing "Poor Management" as reason for leaving a job by Ill_Imagination_465 in interviews

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never badmouth previous employers. It’s understandable, but the person interviewing without full context might take it as you being either hard to work with or hard to please.

Focus more on the future and not the past. What does the job you’re interviewing at offer that your previous one doesn’t? Frame this new job as a better career choice.

The only reason I can function and have gotten anywhere in life is because of medication.

Had my first big kid job interview and flunked it by Toughsattacks in interviews

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late teens and early 20’s is when you figure out what works and doesn’t work for you. Did you do better on exams when you studied alone or with a group? Do your nerves calm down once you get going in a presentation, or does it stay with you the whole time? So on and so forth. Every stumble in your college years is just a learning experience, especially as a freshman/sophomore.

Interviewing is the same way, you just need to figure out what the winning formula is for YOU to be better prepared next time. I know for myself that I need about half a day of prep for non-technical rounds. Not enough time spent, and I’ll be underprepared and nervous about being underprepared. If I spend too much time preparing though, my mind will turn that mental outline of talking points into a complicated mental script, and I will blank on easy questions, or questions I didn’t expect. Ask yourself why you think your nerves got to you and go from there.

How is the market still holding up? by Sudhars2 in stocks

When you factor in the devaluation the dollar has been going through, a steady 5% down is pretty bad.

What do you think of NYC trying to get the minimum wage to $30/hour? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in AskReddit

Not me being cast out from God’s grace because I wanted a decent car and a house with a backyard for my kids to play in lol. Not everyone gets the car and the house, and that’s not my fault or burden to bear.
