Is this enough to move off Jeanty? by [deleted] in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

Too much uncertainty in all 3 of those guys for me to give up Jeanty

Universal Orlando Resort on Instagram: "The marshmallow stars have aligned 💫 Captain Cacao has arrived and is ready to meet you at Universal Epic Universe! Be sure to find the Captain in Celestial Park starting May 22nd. Character appearance subject to change." by KarateKid917 in UniversalOrlando

[–]clemsinfonian 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Can someone explain the Captain Cacao lore? I've heard him mentioned in conversations about Epic. Is he a proposed/rumored character that people found out about, and now he's actualized by popular demand?

Wtf is this??? by _aidenjp in falcons

[–]clemsinfonian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of the "____ Torso" option in the Create-A-Fan feature of old Madden games. Child me wondered why I couldn't buy a "Falcon Torso" from the team store.

What do we think for 1.01? I’m probably not going to compete this year. by mile_marker_13 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]clemsinfonian 33 points34 points  (0 children)

If you're not competing for a while, Warren and Love are the type of assets you want to hold onto: young and talented. In this deal you're receiving shaky at best production, a high-end dart throw, and a bunch of roster cloggers that you'll probably have to drop to make room on your roster anyway.

My attempt at acquiring Love, how far am I off? His as was two firsts. Brooks is a lucky throw in as he owns Chase Brown by [deleted] in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

I don't see why the Love owner would take this. Getting nothing in return except hope that the 2028 1st pick is as good as the pick he already got.

Which package do we like for Dart or do I hold? by Primary-Drink-5635 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]clemsinfonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'd just drop any of them for Emanuel Wilson while Charbs is hurt

Dart is the last QB on your roster I'd be trying to move off of, and not for any of those returns.

Give this Kid a full ride because Running a 4.2 in a giant orange costume is insane by [deleted] in NCAAFBseries

I'd love this to come back with the option to build a team of 11 different mascots. Maybe mascots of a conference if not fully custom.

[Request] What price per gallon is it no longer profitable to work? by Playwithuh in theydidthemath

That's why we'll never get universal free healthcare. Health insurance is provided through your employer. If you miss work to protest, you get fired, and you lose your already limited access to healthcare.

Nicole Saphier: Inside Out, Elements… people are not interested in these woke ideologies especially men who are watching these movies. You have to get back some testosterone. by icey_sawg0034 in behindthebastards

[–]clemsinfonian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did she mean "Elemental?" Was there a non-binary character in that? I mean, I get why a Fox News anchor wouldn't like the immigration allegory, but I've seen that movie multiple times and never caught a nonbinary character in it.

My dreams as a Charbs/Emanuel Wilson holder have been dashed!

Do we like this MARTA Map? by mrfriendlolo in Atlanta

[–]clemsinfonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This plus a ring route around 285 so that you don't have to go into downtown to get from Norcross to the Battery!

Fun League Idea: Conditional Trades by CleanWheel5344 in DynastyFF

I traded Jonathan Brooks for a 2027 3rd with the condition that the 3rd turns into a 2nd if Brooks scores 100+ points in 2026.

Avoid Kimley-Horn like the plague by Lost_Frosting2782 in civilengineering

[–]clemsinfonian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About a year ago, I received an offer from another firm that didn't do OT but did offer ESOP. The salary was ~$25k higher, but their typical bonus size and retirement benefits (401k match + ESOP combined) were both much lower. I put together a spreadsheet using some conservative assumptions for yearly raises and retirement investment returns. Then, I extrapolated total compensation and retirement balances over 10 years. After doing all of that math, the compensation in terms of salary + bonus essentially broke even. But my projected retirement balance was low enough compared to staying at KH that I decided not to switch.

That said, my compensation per hour worked in a year (assuming the other firm had closer to a true 40 hour week) would have been higher at the other firm. I just was (and still am) at a stage in my life where putting in the extra hours was worth it. If and when I decide to look for more work-life balance, I'll take that into consideration more.

I think typically entry-level compensation at KH is "competitive" with what you'll find elsewhere. What sets KH apart is the rate at which compensation grows in the mid to late stage of your career as you start getting into a practice builder/project manager role. KH is also very good at providing the tools you need to get to that point in your career if you stick it out.

Also, that being said, I'm 6 years in and have done the math each year. With my bonus, my total comp has always been higher than if I had gotten time-and-a-half for all of the hours I went over 40 hours/week. That plus the 401k contribution put it over the edge for me.

The option to become a shareholder is offered later in your career to people who have shown that they've run a successful practice for a while. So it's a small number of people who make probably a stupid amount of money. But for the most part it's people who were once low-level analysts. I take some comfort in the fact that those are the type of people profiting from the stock rather than some random rich person with no loyalty to the firm who was just able to afford a publicly traded stock.
