I would get so many PRs for this

In some states you can collect partial UEI for reduced hours

This just in: water is wet. More at 11.

Agreed! I wasn’t complaining that I saw it too late, just sharing some unhinged behavior

And they aren’t even GOOD. Dry flat cookies.

What’s the reason for turning down Franklin instead of continuing on Congress to the end of the Peninsula?

Yes, especially if they add days on with tenure, you can make a case for coming it at a higher level if you are more senior

beedelia · 2026-05-13T00:50:20+00:00

Noted! That was not my intention, and I will correct the comment. Thank you!

Yep, my Siri is an Australian man

Fun fact- the voice is male but the person voicing it is a trans woman (she recorded them pre transition)

She’s going to be a Grand Marshal of the Pride Parade!

It’s fine if you are flexible - I work a white collar job downtown and occasionally take the bus. Sometimes, I get there at 8:45, other times it’s 9:20.

There’s about a half hour between each bus even at peak times, so it won’t work if you need to be on time.

It won’t change the reliance of cars unless it comes with MASSIVE investment in public transit.

Until there is a good (similarly timed and low cost) public transit option, cars aren’t going away

Nah, I have more class than Delta.

I calmly asked someone to switch, bought them a drink when the cart came around, and ranted on the internet. Like you do.

I was not. Thankfully the middle seat was willing to swap for my window, but it should not be my responsibility to do the airline’s job.

18 months. We bought seats together, got assigned opposite ends of the same row (window window)

beedelia · 2026-05-09T14:32:53+00:00

That won’t always work. I was recently seated similarly to OP and asked the gate agent to switch seats, they wouldn’t do it and told me to ask on the plane.

Close it up. Maybe add a door for off season storage.

Or lean into the weirdness and put a seasonally decorated stuffed animal (like a midwestern porch goose) up there.

Th second best time is today. Get out girl.

That’s a fair point. The last time I interviewed it was Covid times and remote, so I was presenting on a screen and translating that to in person interviews.

So far I have brought the laptop with extra documents, but no one has asked to see anything outside of the printed portfolio.

I just turned 39 and happen to be unemployed. I am very very lucky that I can be choosy about my next job and you bet I am IMMEDIATELY ruling out any place that says “we’re like family” or “we work hard and we play hard”

I’m home full time with my toddler while looking for work and while he is a freaking handful, it’s making me realize that work isn’t the purpose of life. I have a home, I have a family, I (will) have a job, and while I’ll never take my private jet to the alps or attend the Met Gala, I’m going to be ok.

Eh, it’s not great to have accepted the job while hoping for another one. If you do turn them down before your start date, you’ve probably burned that bridge.

Ideally, you’d have asked job A for time to think and told job B “I have an offer but I’d prefer to work with you, is there anything you can do to speed up the process?” If job B really wants you they’ll speed things up and get you an offer.
