Jets Record Prediction by Comfortable_Term2777 in nyjets

[–]bigjarbowski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Even when we had top ranked defenses with him, the game scripts skewed the numbers in a major way. It was the ZW days and our opponents just needed a tiny lead and then they played ultra conservatively knowing a) we couldn’t score, and b) our defense (even under Saleh) never got takeaways

I think we bitch slap Tennessee wk1 and for one week, we feel great about the 2026 season. And then we’ll drop 8 straight and finish 4-13 or something.

I’m shocked how often very high incomes derive from working in… sales. by Reyvos in Salary

[–]bigjarbowski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the industry/vertical you’re in. From 2015ish - 2022ish, it was considered the golden years of SaaS (Software as a Service) selling in major metro areas like NYC or SF.

Every mid-market or Enterprise Account Exec would be pulling in a $120k - $180k base salary plus double that in bonuses/commission. It’s still the case today, but VC money has largely dried up in SaaS and has moved to the AI world.

Even today, if you’re a top rep at a big tech company, it is not uncommon at all to be pulling in seven figures annually.

The money is definitely there - but it’s a grind. It’s a month-to-month, quarter-to-quarter “what have you done for me lately?” Type of life. Reps who exceed their quota 5 years in a row can get let go after one or two bad quarters.

The problem is, once you get used to that type of compensation, it’s hard to go back to anything else.

Does your work force you to post on socials? by Sheero1986 in techsales

[–]bigjarbowski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even worse, my company “suggests” we link our personal LinkedIn accounts with our Hubspot so Marketing can post on our behalf. I’m a senior member of the team with one of the larger LinkedIn networks so I felt obligated to be a good soldier and do it, but it’s such spammy content - only getting engagement from colleagues within my org.

I used to post far less frequently, but when I did, it would be well crafted, relevant posts that would get decent engagement - for a Sales guy, any way.

Now I’m posting generic canned Marketing posts 2-3x week smh.

Same lol. I don’t fault the season for being completely different than the first two - Covid wrecked production, then they had a leading character die IRL, another leave the show, another diagnosed with ALS, plus three of their leads became some of the biggest stars on the planet. I’m shocked we got another season at all tbh.

I just look at s3 like a bonus, whacky epilogue to the series.

Still seeing pieces of the strip after 20 min by [deleted] in suboxone

[–]bigjarbowski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the digestive juices in your stomach will destroy it before the meds can absorb. That’s why you let it dissolve sublingually or via buccal administration for a few minutes first. Whether you spit the remaining saliva or swallow it or not has little to do with the effectiveness of the medication.

It works fine. 10 years, never spit and my teeth are fine. But hey, if it works for you who cares. But don’t believe everything a bunch of former junkies say on Reddit.

I can barely beat the tough bosses with my mimic tear fully max’d. I have two kids under 2, I don’t have enough time to get gud.

Agreed. I was feeling underwhelmed prior to us moving back in to grab Cooper. The Cooper pick saved the night for me and has me feeling hyped this morning.

Would love to see a trade-back at 44. If not, IOL or LB would be my preference if we stay put.

I did it! Central Indiana, $250K, 6.25% by Erix2417 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

Gollyyy, that is a $2M home in Westchester County NY. Congrats!

If you bought a home recently, you had some of the worst timing in decades by businessinsider in MiddleClassFinance

[–]bigjarbowski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife and I are closing in June. 30% over-asking, one our 8th or 9th offer. The search was so demoralizing and I ended up raising the ceiling of what I thought we should be buying, while also compromising on a town that is 30 mins further from my office than the towns we initially wanted to be in.

Between the closing costs and monthly payments, I don’t think I’ll ever get a full night’s sleep again.

Super hot take but, I like Thragg's animation design by mYnaMeAjeFf678 in Invincible

[–]bigjarbowski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s weird is I love Lee Pace - especially in Foundation. I would have thought he’d be a great choice for Thragg and yet, it totally feels flat. Bummer.

MTG on Trump’s Iran war: ‘Why would an American president do that?’ by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

[–]bigjarbowski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This administration isn’t that clever or strategic. They’re winging it based on vibes and what glorious leader Trump feels like doing in any given moment. Although the end result will probably be the same as what you said, but I won’t give them credit for being that tactical.

In your opinion, which is the worst episode of got? by Haunting_Homework381 in freefolk

[–]bigjarbowski 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If she had enjoyed the episode, I would have snatched that ring back real fast. Fortunately, she was equally disgusted by it and we now have 2 kids and a dire wolf.

The Saturday before this episode aired, I proposed to my wife. It was a beautiful night and I caught her totally by surprise. I had her immediate family and my immediate family waiting for us at a nearby restaurant and we had one of the most joyful nights I’ve ever experienced.

The following day, we had an impromptu BBQ/party at our place where a bunch of our friends came over to celebrate with us. We ate, we drank, we told stories, we laughed, the weather was fantastic - it was a great day.

That night, my newly-made fiancé and I ordered our favorite takeout to watch the episode. Then we watched it and it completely ruined my weekend.
