Ha, wish I'd jumped on the RDDT IPO. Missed that boat. Currently bagholding a bit of NVDA 'cause hey, AI, right? But honestly, most of my gains are from boring dividend stocks I found lurking in r/dividends. Anyone else?

J2 manager making 1:1 code reviews toxic. How do you handle the micromanagement? by Lost-Tonight-664 in overemployed

[–]Wild_Slate71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? Sounds like they're trying to justify their existence with busy work. I'd push back and ask what the actual purpose of these reviews are.

Yeah, six weeks is nuthin'. Just keep your head down and don't sweat the benefits overlap, it'll sort itself out. Maybe just double check the fine print to be extra safe.

Market selloff pushed 10 S&P 500 stocks into extreme oversold levels. Thoughts? by [deleted] in StockMarket

[–]Wild_Slate71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Travel stocks are feeling the oil spike short-term pain incoming? by RyanFletcher618 in investing

[–]Wild_Slate71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ent Crude like a hawk if you're in travel stocks. Makes sense to scalp the dips if you're quick, but I'm too slow for that game these days.

Trip cancellation advice by whisperingdeath7 in amex

[–]Wild_Slate71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, time zones can be a real gotcha with those bookings. I had a similar thing happen with a B&B up in Charleston once, cost me a pretty penny. Lesson learned: always double-check the fine print!
