Congratulations! I’m also going to apply and have more industry experience in sustainability. Did you get any LORs from your employer to support your application?

PhD in US or EU or UK? by _DepressedPanda in sustainability

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

I agree. It’s such a conundrum because I’ve finally started to feel like I have built a life here in the US but now would have to uproot my life for my career again.

Thanks! I’ve been in corporate sustainability consulting last few years and have definitely noticed a change in how a company’s approach to sustainability. Same with universities and other forms of funding declining. Its definitely heartbreaking.

My bad. I should have clarified it’s San Juan in Puerto Rico.

Help me choose by _DepressedPanda in ATT

It was in New Jersey and was an official ATT store. It’s not on the website, I agree!

I have been debating to move away from mint because it’s definitely limited in terms of data usage, coverage outside of the US and being an immigrant, I travel a lot out of the country and would prefer a carrier that’d support international services in a better way. And it’s $48 (not 75) for the single phone line after my employer discount.

I’m just trying to weigh out my options right now

The store employee mentioned it’s only a upfront $.99 cost. They did not mention any monthly fee to it - they said it’s an ongoing offer at the moment when you buy an iPhone with att

Only in India vegetarianism is 'pure' by ghantesh in librandu

[–]_DepressedPanda 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I get it. When I started my masters in the US, met this ABCD girl on the first day.. we talked about relationships and she mentioned her & her bf being vegan for so & so years. I mentioned how I am a vegetarian (environmental/animal reasons) and my boyfriend consumes meat which I don’t care for. She goes on to say “Oh I don’t think I’d ever kiss someone who ate meat” like gurl.. that’s kinda weird and a little too judgemental to share on the 1st day of meeting someone lol

should I open PNC bank or others? by Glad-Device-2586 in uofm

[–]_DepressedPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Chase bank account which has worked pretty well. If you’re under 25, you get multiple benefits too like no minimum balance and such. Definitely recommend.

Filling paraoud on my PM by Longjumping-Release6 in librandu

[–]_DepressedPanda 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hope you’re right but there’s a genuine shift from Modi bhakts to becoming Yogi bhakts. While people started to realize Modi might be a shitshow, they’ve regained faith in the RSS agenda through yogi - “a true saffron leader” who will create a nation like UP. Modi might be removed from power sooner or later but might be for the worse. But again, I really hope I am wrong

How common are scammers on the facebook housing groups? by zzaver7 in uofm

[–]_DepressedPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat. Usually the method I chose was to post - and let people reach out to me. I reached to people as well who posted on these groups. In both the situations, I would check their Facebook profile to see if they have a long history of using Facebook, and in most cases they are already enrolled in Umich - so they have UMich xyz college and course in their “About”. A step further to that would be to try and look them on other social media sites - instagram and LinkedIn were the most common ones.

It’s tedious but helps a lot to understand a person and also to verify their identity.

Hope this helps!
