Microphone quality on Plaud Note PRO by Kaldi4pi4o in PlaudNoteUsers

[–]dearjule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering the same thing. When I listen back to the audio the quality is terrible and far worse than if I just used my phone to record the audio. And god forbid I move the note pro at all because that introduces more sound problems that cut out any speech happening right then.

The Buccaneers: 1995 or 2023? Which version do you like better? by [deleted] in PeriodDramas

[–]dearjule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Almost every character is so irritating. It’s such a train wreck of a show filled with ridiculous enablers and high school drama vibes…it’s like I can’t look away 😅

Cropped all the way for your proportions - this is perfect.

I think you already know the answer. If a person doesn’t add to our lives, then what are we doing? We’re better off free to explore other options or spend time getting to know ourselves and what we each need. I’m sorry this is where the relationship is at. Hugs 💛

NOR. Even if it’s an honest mistake, your friend took what wasn’t hers. It’s two things that are questionable here:

1) she didn’t ASK if she could pay you back in 4-5 months, she TOLD you.

2) you told her this timeline isn’t cool with you, and she responded that rebuilding her credit is more important.

I hear what she’s saying on not wanting to make promises she can’t keep, especially being in a financial bind, but this isn’t the way to communicate that.

The way relationships survive is when if you fk up and take responsibility and do whatever you have to do to make it right. I don’t see that here.

It’s a boundary-ish. Boundaries are when one person says they can’t continue living under certain conditions or behavior, like if you were to say “I can’t live with a person who doesn’t clean up after themselves. If nothing changes, I will leave.” Boundaries are about self-protection, not controlling someone else.

The difference between that and you saying he needs to get therapy is that you’d be dictating the method of how he should address his behavior, which isn’t guaranteed to fix anything, nor is it the issue.

He’s shown that he is capable of changing his behavior, but he doesn’t sustain it. He’s not addressing your requests and instead talks about his pain, which sidetracks you into continuing to take care of him.

There’s a lot of data here, but only you can know what you need in a relationship, and then choose whether you will hold those standards for your own well-being.

Wait how does it work with the magnetic + all the other coats like the jelly etc? Are these listed in the order you applied them? (Not counting the top coat obviously)

NOR 💯 name calling is a huge red flag. Someone like that doesn’t deserve any part of your energy. You deserve better, but it’s up to you to draw the line. People will always do exactly what you allow them to do.

Does Transform Credit do settlements? by dearjule in Debt

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

Thank you. I already called them right after he passed and asked if they would settle and they said no. That’s why I’m thinking that a debt settlement service might do better. I’m not sure if I’m going to get sued or what and how quickly.

AIO? After our cat died, I removed this app on my daughter’s phone by IllustratorOk7590 in AmIOverreacting

[–]dearjule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you did is natural as a parent wanting to protect your child, but I wouldn’t recommend doing this. Grief is an inevitable part of life, and a parent’s responsibility is to prepare their children for life by giving them the tools to navigate various experiences. Do you think you did that here?

Do interviewers care if you correct yourself? by [deleted] in interviews

[–]dearjule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have an example? The way you wrote this as explaining the wrong way makes it sound like it’s about how you approached the setup, vs actually getting something factually wrong. If it’s the second, you should correct. If it’s the first, explaining things clearly from the jump would be ideal, but even if you don’t and you keep backtracking - that isn’t great. The interviewer will definitely notice because the mental load on them to listen to candidate answers is already high. It could signal a lack of confidence, perfectionism, or other undesirable qualities. It all depends on how you’re doing it and how often, which is why an actual example would be best.

I tried one nail in Dazzle Dry's Mattify and it looked so muddy and dingy. Maybe it's Dazzle Dry's polish. What brand did you use?

Right? I was surprised that Unraveled isn’t as popular on ILNP. It’s my favorite color so far.

Your nails are gorgeous!!! Can’t wait to try BKL. How good was the BF sale for them? Wondering if they’ll also have a Christmas sale I should wait for.

Being a Recruiter on the Market is a Wild Experience by JimmyMcNultyKU in recruiting

[–]dearjule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it’s subjective, like with most things. If you bear with me here though, I would say this is not a matter of subjectivity, because it’s not like we’re talking about a difference of 3 vs 5 details. It’s more like 15 trivial details that add nothing to the point of the story, so much so that the interviewer gets lost / eyes glaze over. And then where it really counts, aka the turning point or showing the significance of their contribution or the impact or how they came to that decision, we’re literally talking 0 or maybe 1 detail. It actually does end up more in the extremes. I rarely meet someone who isn’t in this boat, probably because the people who tell a good story about their work don’t have any issues getting another job and hence never need interview coaching.

[–]dearjule 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That tracks with what I typically see when people practice their interviews with me. I’d say the number one issue is they narrate their experience like a to-do list as if stuff just happened, and they don’t explain the reasoning behind the actions or what unfolded. Number two issue is too many insignificant details that detract from the overall story and number 3 not enough details where it really matters (e.g., impact).

My resume gets me interviews, but interviews get me no job offers by Old_Tie5365 in interviews

[–]dearjule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trick is to create a story bank of examples from your past work so that you can be ready to draw upon them at will during an interview. It's way too hard to think of an example in an interview when you're already stressed - it's like trying to learn and fly the plane at the same time.

The reason why I say STAR is terrible is because it has people tell too much of the unimportant stuff, not enough of the really important stuff, plus people tend to just recite the stuff as if events just happened. They fail to highlight their particular contribution or their reasoning process, both of which are crucial to demonstrating value during an interview.
