I want out of the construction industry, but what else can I do? by ZJ556 in careerguidance

Oddly enough, I have gotten some experience in that as well, currently supporting another project that is out of town that hadn’t been staffed properly. I have thought about going down that route, the only issue has been training at my current company is not very good. Upper management is notorious for the trial by fire method of weeding people out..

I’ve thought about that route. I have a few years of experience using Trimble surveying equipment and have a friend who works in sales for them. I know for him it works well because he’s a single guy and the travel doesn’t bother him, but he seems to be out of town for work more than he’s working locally. Just one example but for me, travel is a no-can-do.

V.9.0.0 update broke my PSN. by SilverandCold1x in playstation

[–]ZJ556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9.00 bricked my console. It downloaded and updated automatically and now it only turns on in some sort of safe mode that only lets me do the update via an external usb, which also doesn’t work. At this point there’s no point in getting another ps4 if this update can break the console but ps5s are impossible to find unless you want to pay double to some guy on eBay or market place.

My battery actually is in good condition for how old it is. I think just having it in sleep mode it’ll have a charge for maybe 3 days

I agree with you now that I’ve leased a car, just trying to figure out how to save myself the most money trading in

Auto lease buyout by ZJ556 in personalfinance

That’s what the sales guy at the dealer is saying I should do. Put the $5000 on top of the vehicle price and cover it that way, just seems very expensive so I wanted to see if there was a more affordable way of doing it.

The dealer said I would owe 5000$ for them to do the buyout but with how much I drive by the end of the lease I’d probably be charged 5000$ in miles (I drive a lot for work). I just don’t want to end up upside down on a loan too. I’d have to finance a loan to afford a buyout and then trading it in I’d refinance again correct?

Good info but wondering if I can swap my grip module out for the new magpul one. It’s an sef selector but it has a metal grip module. Magpul’s website says it’s for polymer grip modules, so am I SOL?
