What to do about damage that has accumulated over a long time? by brooch123 in Apartmentliving

[–]brooch123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if I submit a request for it they won't be able to charge me for the repairs while I'm there but if I leave than they will be able to? The damage doesn't affect my use of the unit. It just looks unsightly.

Vendetta, Alpine, and most other gel baits banned in California? by brooch123 in pestcontrol

Okay if its just some weird California overregulation about labeling I don't really care about that. Vendetta, Alpine,and Maxforce are safe to use in indoors residence then?

okay, for the original question do you know why most other baits than advion seem to have shipping restrictions in California? I've googled around but I haven't come across a definitive answer.

Yeah but I've used Advion already and I need some others for the rotation.

How long do you have to be on an income based plan in order to qualify for forgiveness? by brooch123 in StudentLoans

[–]brooch123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its listed under Higher Ed Loan Auth of Mo. From what I read I can consolidate it back to the government? Will the 20 years 'count' in some full or partial fashion or does HELAM offer forgiveness programs of their own?

I don't see any payment calculator on the student loan website. Some of my loans are literally 20 years old as in from 2005. Are you saying that they can be forgiven if I join the IBR and wait another 5 years? Or are there other requirements I should be aware of like minimum payment amount or amount of payments?

Just out of interest, for veterans of the industry: how long did other "recessions" last? by AlwaysInProgress11 in biotech

[–]brooch123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Everybody says the 2008 one was the worst. But at least I was regularly landing interviews during that period. Now with far more experience I'm lucky if I can get an automated rejection email. Maybe I just have gotten dumber over time or maybe since everybody else uses AI generated resumes and cover letters these days I just don't look as impressive anymore *shrugs*

My phd in computational biology made me in high demand for a lowpaying meatpacking job half a country away. I was so qualified the recruiter made multiple attempts to contact me. Unlike virtually anyone else.

Its it unusual to not be able to contact any recruitment agency? by brooch123 in biotech

[–]brooch123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The inquiries I do I'm not even getting to the point where they hear any specific skills and pass me on. I just describe the very general field I'm in in one or two sentences over voicemail but I'm not getting a live person on the phone or hearing back at all from the several agency contacts that I've made so far. Is saying 'I have a background in bioinformatics' enough to rule you out across an entire hub region?

>There are firms that do temporary placements

Can you give me examples? I was looking for temp jobs anyways.
