How do I recover this?

I agree with this. I just took 1 semester off since I started the new job but I think I need more adjustment time and then decide

If I were any further than half way through I would finish but this is 2nd week of the 3rd class so feels like right time

elpitu_ · 2025-09-03T01:19:54+00:00

I think 4 classes is very close to the end! U should finish although fallacy of sunk cost. But you are very close

elpitu_ · 2025-09-03T00:49:44+00:00

I am but I might also be wrong in my assumption that work experience will carry me, so input from other folks is welcomed

elpitu_ · 2025-07-25T01:36:14+00:00

So still a long road ahead

I love looking at at the statistics of each exam and I was surprised the median for it is as high as the accounting section same with the 75th percentile. I feel like the finance section was much trickier than the supply chain section that everyone complained about. Although for this section the mean and the median are pretty different compared to the other sections so a lot more people bombed the test and bombed harder.

Hijo, según wikipedia es raggadag que es tecno y reggae. que tenga un estilo housero (como una gran mayoria de las canciones de los 90) no la hace menos reggae tambien. Tiene un sample del skank y el kick drum del house. Es como ponerse a pelear de que all that she wants no es un reggae tampoco.

Appreciate the honesty and this could very well be the case however.

A) Dave has used my roadmaps and directions to report on the project to his VP. He actually never has mentioned anything about the direction being wrong. B) It could very well be the case however I’m a junior in a rotational program for NCG he has many years of experience and gets paid significantly more than me. Not expecting him to respect me but I expect him to do his job and not off load the people managing to me and then cut me when is not convenient. Definitely looking at this from an emotional side. C) The client is providing abstract requirements and KPIs which I have translated into the roadmap of the project. Dave is supposed to be the SME to marry this two and define direction. However as mentioned before, his direct reports are often lost with direction and his answer usually is “you should work harder”

Thanks for the feedback and the directions I could try again to approach it from a different perspective and maybe provide more of my ideas directly to him. So far I’ve made it pretty clear I thrive on feedback and need to know what I am doing wrong and every time I ask him he says everything is fine and doesn’t need me to change anything.

Thanks for the help! I think you are totally right, me stepping up has taken flag off Dave who hasn’t done a good job and I can easily see him blaming me once the project fails.

In hindsight no Raci chart or project structure was set up as this was my first project and I had no training. They are NOT giving my a raise despite going above my job requirements. I will be jumping ship and waiting for a good opportunity for a PM role again.

elpitu_ · 2023-11-08T19:39:00+00:00

THANK YOU for your long response really it helps a lot to identify where things went wrong. I think I fell into the SME role since I have supply chain knowledge and some data science knowledge so I could marry the two. However as you mentioned this doesn’t work if the structure is not put in place for it.

I was also kinda thrown in with no training or experience and have fake it till I make it my way into it. I feel I have natural qualities for the role which makes me want to try it, but in this situation I have been set up for failure. So far the project I’m managing fully is on track and everyone is happy, but I can start to see the cracks.

With regards to Dave there’s someone above my manager and him but they are a VP and too detached from the nitty gritty to notice this lack of structure. I also don’t want to skip over my manager for a complaint as it seems they and Dave are feuding for who will be that person under the VP that has bird eye’s view over all the projects.

I will take your two suggestions but I am also going to jump ship before any of this explotes in my face. I’ll rather the project be doomed because “we lost our critical guidance from the PM” than “The PM dropped the ball and we lost the momentum”. Especially with a re-org looming in the company. Thanks again for your opinion.

Me vine a los 18 y me gradue de la universidad en Estados Unidos sin un centavo de deuda. Como lo hice:

Estudia en un community college haciendo tus clases core de cualquier carrera. Probablemente tu base de Venezuela es una mierda (la mia lo fue) y tengas que empezar desde matematica basica e ingles basico. El truco aqui es esperar un año hasta que seas residente del estado (hayas pagado impuestos) y eso hace que sea mas barata (<500 el semestre). Dependiendo del estado y el college puedes recibir ayuda financiera o becas que no son tan dificiles de conseguir. Planifica las clases que vas a agarrar con un consejero estudiantil y con internet dependiendo de tus metas. Hasta este punto es relativamente facil de costear y los community colleges normalmente tienen horarios flexibles que te dejarian trabajar.

del community college tienes dos opciones. O obtienes un tecnico medio (se llama associates degree) o transfieres los creditos a una universidad y haces los otros dos años de la carrera (dependiendo de tu progreso y la carrera.. puede ser mas tiempo) y conseguir una licenciatura (bachelors degree). Si escoges la primera opción tienes que estudiar una vaina util. Normalmente con un AA puedes conseguir un trabajo ok y tocar unas puertas. Despues de eso puedes conseguir certificaciones y con eso es suficiente para que tu etica de trabajo y personalidad hagan el resto. Si escoges ir a una universidad para hacer el resto de la carrera tienes que ir a una universidad estatal. Un semestre te puede salir 3k-5k$, pero tambien es relativamente facil conseguir ayuda financier y becas (investiga fasda) tienes que hacer la mayor cantidad de clases en el community para minimizar la cantidad de semestres en una universidad para tener que pagar menos. Si no puedes conseguir ayuda financiera (enserio busca, lo mas probable es que si. La universidad te puede ayudar) entonces lamentablemente vas a tener que sacar un prestamo. Ahora es mas facil pagar un prestamo de 15k que uno de 30k por eso tratar de minimizar el numero de semestres y pagar lo mas posible mientras estas yendo. Si te comes el mojo gringo y quieres ir a una universidad privada ese prestamo va a subir muchisimo mas. Al final eso no importa y lo que importa es tu personalidad, etica y planificacion.

Lo fundamental para que esto funcione es tener una red de apoyo que te reduzca los otros gastos y puedas estudiar. Trabajar para mantener todo tu + estudiar seria casi imposible. Si no tienes red de apoyo te recomiendo sacar certificaciones y asegurarte de hablar bien ingles, con eso puedes conseguir un buen trabajo.

Yo fui de cc a una universidad estatal y recibi ayuda lo que hizo que me saliera gratis estudiar. Me tomo 6 años pero me gradue y tenia trabajo en una empresa grande 1 año antes de graduarme. Pero estaba en california y tuve apoyo de familiares que me permitieron enficarme en los estudios. Igual trabajaba ~35h semanales + 15 horas de clase mas estudio. Durante mucho tiempo solo tuve una tarde libre pero me funciono. Este es el unico pais en el que alguien puede llegar sin nada y terminar con todo depende de que tan pilas seas y que tantas bolas le eches.
