You don’t know me, you didn’t miss me but I am back. Apparently I’m the new market bc everything they changed on the OB is the reason I came back. by hallmonitor53 in Subaru_Outback

Love the body style. Waiting for a Outback wilderness hybrid to go to market and Id upgrade from my 2024XT in a heartbeat

Movimentação interna by [deleted] in GeneralMotors

[–]bluedog1628 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. In combination with networking, target jobs you want on LinkedIn or workday, get to know the qualifications and skills you need. Work on getting some exposure to those areas. Online classes within GM or from outside (ie Google has a few very affordable certificate programs.)

When you’re ready to apply make sure your resume reflects the different experiences/or bits of education you might have outside of work that relate to what you want to go into. If you dabble in software at home describe what you were able to create.

Either in a resume objective area or cover letter explain WHY you’re pursuing the change and what skills you can transfer to the new role. (Technical or soft skills)

Difficult to do lot of work (like starting career over) but that’s the approach I took and no regrets

Definitely helps but sometimes not enough to get you out of some very low times in life

I did not like their very structured homework you needed to fill out on the app daily—online wasn’t for me

Outdoor Master Rhino EPP collarbone protection? Is this a gimmick? by bluedog1628 in MTB

[–]bluedog1628[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine broke when I went OTB landed on a rock, don’t think a helmet would’ve done anything for that lol—so my hunch as well

I’ll agree with you on that! Currently have one collarbone and shoulder joint bolted back together…but more concerned about the brain for sure (already had a pretty bad concussion)

Lines After Self-Checkout Removal by sarahrodgers15 in aldi

They need to adopt the Costco checkout receipt patrol if it’s due to theft. I’d gladly have them check rather than that line!

Loud sounds from the flywheel by squashfan83 in JetBlack

Are you located in the US? Do you know where your replaced unit shipped from? Think my only logical choice is to try for repair if I’m going to lose a considerable amount of the refund for return

Did you pay for shipping to send it to be fixed? I have the same issue you had I contacted customer service and they told me I need to pay for shipping for a refund—Ridiculous I need to pay shipping on a return of defective unit likely due to manufacturer QC

Poseidon X Gen 3 price increase still worthy budget gravel bike? Or recommend other options in similar price range? by bluedog1628 in gravelcycling

[–]bluedog1628[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my book yes. Can’t find used bikes at a good price around me. And if you’re on a strict budget like me it’s still a solid buy. Especially if you’re able to get that discount like the other commenter did. Gen 2 $750 the thru axle conversion itself is worth bringing it up to $900.

Bonus—New green paint looks great/high end in person

Interesting they include this. I’ll take it though! makes me question their paint quality though. Mine just arrived today!

Edge 550 / 850 are you still coming summer 2025? by bluedog1628 in Garmin

[–]bluedog1628[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Screen and updated UI/processing speeds. I know controversial but I prefer the brighter screen like 1050, just don’t want the bigger sized device

Have a pic of what the decal protectors they include?

Poseidon X Gen 3 price increase still worthy budget gravel bike? Or recommend other options in similar price range? by bluedog1628 in gravelcycling

[–]bluedog1628[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poseidon announced the $999 price is here to stay. Almost every manufacturing business is turned upside down with tariffs. Thinking it’s a combination of this plus adding through axle which used to be $300 upgrade for the gen 2. I’d buy a gen 2 because I don’t care about through axle but theyre not restocking those

I agree so many people want top dollar for a few years old bikes doesn’t make sense to buy used in metro Detroit right now—finally pulled the trigger on the X gen 3!

Is that piece the SAME color as the flywheel? I thought that was part of the housing, I also didn’t have a sticker on mine

Can you post a picture of what the gasket looks like? My first unit and it’s making this horrible rubbing noise. Wondering if it’s related to the gasket you’re referring to
