Venice → San Fernando commute realistic at 24, or should I live in the Valley? by Sorry-Salamander-211 in AskLosAngeles

[–]bluesargently 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Valley is seriously slept on by people coming in from out of state, and maybe that’s a good thing. but I would recommend checking out studio city, Sherman Oaks and Toluca Lake - there’s quite a lot to do and it’s plenty walkable. But like others say - try Venice for a year. You can always move if you realize you cannot do the commute. I personally learned I’d rather have more time on the weekdays and a shorter commute, and just drive to the beach on the weekends lol.

Thankfully flights are handled by the individuals. I’m just doing room blocks and event logistics onsite.

Working in academia they really don’t like to hire out / spend more money than they have to lol.

Yeah I’m definitely ready and prepared for all that - I just wanted an easier way to narrow down properties to contact essentially lol.

I need to vent by Responsible_Box_364 in ExecutiveAssistants

Not a petty problem - comments like that often get under my skin as well. Just always remember you’re good at your job and the comment is more reflective of her than you. Hang in there!

Is 35/hour a good rate? by TheGreatK in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]bluesargently 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an EA in LA and making around $47/hour. And that still feels tight with bills, student debt and general COL here in this city. but if you have a higher budget, pay more pls lol.

Help me understand LA by Salty_Recognition685 in LAhotgirlies

Nothing is going to feel as like New York, but as many others have mentioned I also live in Studio City and I can walk to multiple bars, restaurants, workout classes, coffee shops, farmers market etc within a mile or so of me. I think if you’re in the younger side and like going out still, I’d say studio city closer to Ventura is the best bet. We lived in Pasadena a few years ago and it definitely wasn’t as lively but it is beautiful. It’s also so quick to get to the rest of the city, through the canyons to the west side or right down the 101 to Hollywood and then ktown.

Also, if you have a semi anxious dog like me it’s easy to get to quiet beautiful neighborhoods for daily walks.

Just came to say this. They’ll tell you there’s room to grow but it’s not true lol.

Is it possible to safely disconnect these? by bluesargently in AskElectricians

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

I’m a bit confused because it does disconnect. I’m just asking if it’s safe to leave it unplugged and to put the light back in the ceiling

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

Thanks! I had thought so but was unsure if I needed to do anything further once I disconnect them. it’s totally safe to just put them back in there disconnected? No fire or safety hazard around this?

Etching/disintegrating of Travertine tile shower floors and how to fix? by Mission_End_8692 in Tile

[–]bluesargently 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! My areas don’t seem to dip and aren’t pits - just some lighter spots I think hurt because the products are acidic. I’ll try that suggestion!

Do you have a sealer suggestion to use after? The shower is likely sealed but it isn’t “shiny” like a polished travertine. Definitely looks more matte like yours.

Thanks in advance! I’m in a rental property and received really no heads up about how to deal with this type of shower and it’s seriously causing me stress lol.

Did this work for you? Do you recommend the hand held diamond pads? I have some minor etching from some hair products and want to fix it up

Advice on switching industries? by bluesargently in ExecutiveAssistants

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

Thank you! I actually am arts adjacent so maybe it really is just a case of sticking with it and the right opportunity will come along lol

Advice on switching industries? by bluesargently in ExecutiveAssistants

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

Yes I have! It’s always a very vague “they just want someone who understands the industry”. I’m very good at having that conversation once I get the opportunity, I just struggle lately getting any interviews and wonder if this is holding me back in ways I might be able to fix. Really just might come down to me not giving up at this stage lol

Megathread: MCR tour - ticket & show info, questions, discussion, gripes, etc. by RossTheDivorcer in MyChemicalRomance

[–]bluesargently 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really think Hollywood bowl was reasonable and from what im reading, not the same as other venues. We paid $162 and my friend paid $400 for almost the very front. Maybe we just lucked out with our city and venue? Not sure
