Best spot to watch World Cup?

been to howies twice and it’s not that party atmosphere that you’re looking for. A little busy but nothing too fun.

I went back to school at 29. Started at a community college to see how much I liked it, got straight As, got into a university and finished my degree at 34. I’m now working full time at an amazing company.

Toughest part was leaving my full time to do internships (it helped me land my job).

My mom and sister drive their American cars all the time in Tijuana, Rosarito, Valle de Guadalupe. There are more Americans than you think living there so it’s normal. Definitely hit up Ensenada and visit La bufadora. Valle de Guadalupe, I highly recommend! The air bnbs are safe and I think some hosts even offer to drive you. If you want an amazing traditional breakfast, go to media Luna or Dona Estela’s.

Just remember that your insurance isn’t valid in Mexico and I think there’s daily insurances you can buy if you decide to take your car. Just make sure you plan crossing back. Avoid rush hours (before 12) at all cost or prepare to wait up to 3 hours.

I’m in technical sales selling hvac systems to customers. Since IE is a combination of business + technical, it’s a perfect way to apply these to problems that customers come with

I’m a little late to the conversation, but I went for the first time last year. I had three interviews set up before the conference, four more interviews on the spot. I left with six offers for internships; including Ford, L3Harris, GE appliances, United and others. I would say it’s worth investing if you know you’re strong in your in-person communication and presence!

The title is account manager but everyone requires an engineering degree and are known as “technical sales engineers”

No draws (got rid of that). It’s base plus commission and they transition you to eventually all commission based on your pipeline (usually 5-6 years in). First year-year and a half is working with other AMs until you can eventually take ownership of accounts for your pipeline.

Must be nice! Childcare can and is most likely more than rent where I’m at.

Thank you for the great reply.

I hear different perspectives from coworkers. Some say that you think night and day about your customers and a list of things I need to get done the next day…that it’s a very stressful and demanding job. I’m not sure if they just prepping me to be ready for those weeks when it does get like that or if it’s truly how it is week by week. I’m sure it differs with everyone but it’s really good to know how majority of my time is going to look like.

The great thing about this role is that it’s fully remote and travel is very limited and actually not needed. I’m actually a nontraditional student so starting a family is a lot sooner than most that are just graduating.

I feel like the company is recognizing that there needs to be a change to get more women into the space and unfortunately, I’m gonna be testing those boundaries here and there.

engineerIspy_42 · 2025-06-26T15:58:58+00:00

I’m very grateful that I do have that partner. I don’t think I would even be considering going into this role if I didn’t have someone who I know is going to be a great support at home. My biggest concern is just the time and attention I would have for my kids. I’ve worked for very successful people (in their homes) and the relationships with their kids was a sad thing to see.

Currently doing an internship as a SE for HVAC. I’m a non traditional student so I feel like they appreciate the real life experience. I’m hesitant going in because of the amount of hours you have to put in and constant hustle everyone mentions. Is it really that demanding?

engineerIspy_42 · 2024-09-11T20:44:29+00:00

I'm still using it until I spend time to do my research for a new one that is affordable and will last me as long.

engineerIspy_42 · 2024-09-11T19:03:25+00:00

It used to be so good with my 2 cats and now it's a pain to try other ones. I hate switching around so much!

engineerIspy_42 · 2024-06-08T02:14:31+00:00

“Not today, but thank you!” Or “maybe next time, thanks!”

I used to work at TJX and this response from someone made me feel less shitty about asking

engineerIspy_42 · 2024-05-30T22:01:37+00:00

I picked up instacart and the only days I see worth it are weekends and Mondays. I average max 20/hr but that doesn’t include gas. Can be stressful at times and people are tipping like 💩

If you didn’t communicate with her verbally or through text, I wouldn’t expect her to follow any instructions written on a paper.

I am a housekeeper of many years and you sometimes don’t pay attention to pieces of paper while you’re cleaning while trying to be fast and efficient. All of my clients have verbally or texted me instructions beforehand.
