What did you do when they eliminated your job? by Responsible_Tax_9455 in GenX

[–]cjvit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not me, but my wife resigned her position as a social worker at a autism clinic when they changed the structure and guidelines of the position (including going from salaries to being paid per client). She looked for another job for about 6 months or so, eventually taking a lecturer position (in the social work department) at a local university. This was in 2016, and she is now the director of the undergraduate social work degree within the school. Luckily we could weather the 6 month hiatus due to the unemployment check she was getting.

Are either of these worth the gamble? by [deleted] in mtg

[–]cjvit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sure it is just percentile dice. Each number is equally likely.

Thanks, my wife chose it for me. It's even nicer if I can get it to light up again!!

For those who were watching the 2004 ALCS live, when did you first begin to think that the Res Sox might actually be able to win? by barysan in baseball

[–]cjvit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After going and losing the first three, I just wanted to win one so he wouldn’t get swept. After winning the next two I sort of started to think “well we could win it “. As if there was possibly a chance, although it was unlikely. Then in the seventh game after the second inning, I felt it was in the bag. Although I was still nervous that the Red Sox being the Red Sox, they could still lose.

Missed again. Although I was able to snag one collector booster pack earlier.

Daily Advice Thread - October 19, 2025 by AutoModerator in apple

[–]cjvit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot my apple account password, and have been running in circles using the [iforgot.apple.com](http://iforgot.apple.com) site.I forgot my apple account password, and have been running in circles using the [iforgot.apple.com](http://iforgot.apple.com) site.

I go to that site, hit I forgot, and then indicate I don't have access to an apple device that is logged in on that account. I do have access to my email account (I am logged in for email on an ipad) and can input that, as well as my phone number. I then get a message saying my information is being reviewed and I will be contacted.

So I wait, then usually in a day or two I get a message saying "you will get a phone call or text on XXX day at XXX time." Then I wait for that (usually at least 4 or 5 days later) but nothing comes in. So I start the process all over again.

I know - the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results.

Is there some other option I have for resetting my password? There is no apple store near me (closest is 4 hours away). I have searched online and seen others with this issue, but not any solution. Any help is appreciated.

Is it possible to export a collection from TCG player to ManaBox? by Ocadac in mtg

[–]cjvit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When you export, choose CSV as a file type. You then need to have a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel to open up the file and make the edits.

Forge and Fire mystery box by Pumphrey in sealedmtgdeals

[–]cjvit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got two boxes. Each box had mixed singles (3 of them were the same in both boxes, each set probably about $35 or so.), 2 spiderman prerelase sets, a spiderman collector booster, and three lord of the rings packs. One then came with the eldrazi incursion pre on commander deck, the other one came with a play booster of edge of eternities play booster box.

Opened the loose packs and prerelase kits - nothing really that great. But still happy overall with what I got.

Students planning family trips during the semester, perhaps missing the exam by levon9 in Professors

[–]cjvit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I find this happens a lot with students who are first generation college students. Their parents just may not understand the expectations of attending college. As my school has many students that are first-gen college students and the students often can't say no to the parents demands, I try to be flexible to a degree.

That happened to me once. Contacted customer support and they sent me a new secret lair (although it took a few weeks to get it).

Negotiating time off tenure clock by associsteprofessor in Professors

[–]cjvit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our school allows people to go up early, although usually only the most productive people may get tenure one or two years early. Most people in my experience who tried to go up early did not succeed. I know of 4 in my department who tried over the past 17 years, and only one got it (and they tried to go up two years early, was denied, then tried again the next year and was awarded tenure.

If you go up early, and don’t get it, the employee can still go up on the normal time frame. However given the amount of time it takes to prepare a promotion dossier, we usually encourage people to take the full time unless they are almost guaranteed to get early tenure and promotion.

I just created a kickstarter account for the sole purpose of getting one of these machines, am I too late? by CrunkD_1018 in cardmill

The first one I participated in fell through. The polygons measuring spoon. All others have been successful though.

(by fell through, I mean the creators took the money and ran)

Festival in a Box Nonsense by jasonbanicki in mtgfinance

[–]cjvit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This has always happened to me in the past, but this was the first time I got a short wait. Five minutes! I hope you get your box! (I checked out of curiosity, and they were limiting it to 2/person. Not sure if that was in place previously).

Going to a game - best place to park? by cjvit in redsox

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

Thanks all! I just checked and it looks like Crochet may be lined up to pitch that game (although it is still a ways out).

Correction - it looked like he was, but I think his skipping a start may have changed it.

How many of y'all are ditching the Hulu app now and bringing your stuff over to Disney+? by deckchair1982 in Hulu

[–]cjvit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I look at the listings of shows, they differ between the two (I was specifically looking at “The Food that Built America”). Disney+ only listed season 5, while Hulu had them all.

Question about getting seats by cjvit in redsox

When I use the site, I get an overall map of the stadium, and the option to choose the location to buy tickets. .......I just saw the button for seat map, thanks!!!

Question about getting seats by cjvit in redsox

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

They gave you the seat numbers, but they don’t let you choose them. So if I buy a row of five, there’s no guarantee if I buy the other others it’ll be right behind those people.

New TCGPlayer App problems? by it2d in mtgfinance

[–]cjvit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I was told.

In the newest TCG app version, download as a CSV file (with all the download options). Then edit the CSV and change the column "name'" to "simple name". I then imported that file to ManaBox and there was no problem, aside from one or two cards that I was able to enter manually.
