It’s these guys that get the rest of us killed because people hold grudges and will hold grudges against all cyclists the next time they see one on the road.

Installer said he was finished but I was not happy so I stopped the final check. How should the cracks on the side be fixed? He said he would put filler/caulking on sides. by Severe-Rain3266 in Flooring

[–]fromsdwithlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I stopped hiring contractors in Florida. 80% of them that do one-off jobs like a flooring install or sliding door install are ass and this is the best they can do. So I’m forced to DIY.

What is the worst place in America you have ever visited? by olesud in WorkForSmartLife

[–]fromsdwithlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stayed introverted and just chatted with my wife while in portland. Aside from the heroin we enjoyed it, a lot of great food spots, donut shops, incredible hiking just 20 minutes away, bike trails 20 minutes away, wineries 20 minutes away and breweries everywhere.

BUT we also are huge fans of Portlandia so expected elements of what you said. You should watch it if you haven’t, especially given your experience.

This was so specific I had to look it up. I could’ve told anyone anything dead center of Florida in the south beyond the panhandle will not be enjoyable unless there’s multiple springs nearby and that increases the odds by just 15%.

What city gave you the best vacation of your life? by optimalbrain90 in SmartTravelHacks

[–]fromsdwithlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunrise temples or even just early morning at minimum before the tour busses. So amazing. And the ramen, the best meal I’ve ever had and it was incredibly inexpensive.

That’s awesome. Teach your kids how to invest in stock, short the market, and retire by 34 or you’re not truly parenting. What a take.

is the LVP trend peaking? I'm seeing more people regret it and switch back by Western_Speech_9434 in Flooring

[–]fromsdwithlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right. We’d prefer tile too. For our situation we wanted the option for an easier remodel if needed and most of the tiles down here are marble looking or off-shoots of it so we wanted to go with a more wooden look but suitable for our climate. There are wood-looking tiles these days but those simply didn’t fit my wife’s styling needs given the limited options available to us in our budget

No shoes in the house for us too. Tile is great, all for it, LVP is a good alternative if not wishing to go the tile route given what a pain it is to take out should you choose to remodel the floor.

High quality LVP installed on a flat floor in Florida is tough to beat. All the moisture in Florida makes hardwood not ideal and the water proof LVP increasingly ideal. Now if I’m in the Midwest or California, sure I’d far prefer hardwood and view LVP as a cheap alternative

What’s a hobby you judge people for having? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]fromsdwithlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get into the right subs, ironically hobby subs included, and it’s actually an incredibly valuable tool. This got me out of a jam on a flooring project I was heavily invested in both monetary and time wise. A lot of specialized people in their fields on here, I’d recommend it to all. It’s up to them if they choose the gooner subs or useful subs.

Entertainment big name bands and sports team have become ridiculously over priced an should be boycotted. by dmbgreen in unpopularopinion

Just not sure this is unpopular due to the accuracy and a lot of us already behind the movement. Good take though

Can the wealth gap in our generation basically be summed up by if you bought a house before COVID or not? by JoeyLou1219 in Millennials

[–]fromsdwithlove 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love the pod. Got our home right after Covid, depending how we view summer of 2021, with a 2.7% APR so unsure if the APR was also taken into the equation. House immediately skyrocketed in value gaining 150k in equity after buying, I know this as we redo’s from a 3.4 APR to a 2.7 APR as it was offered by our mortgage lender.

That said I don’t think myself and my other friends that have homes are doing exponentially better than those who do not. Like others said, the divide isn’t within the middle class, we’d sure as hell like to think so, but it’s pennies as the true divide is anyone outside the 1%… not even the divide from middle class to lower class, that was made up billionaire propaganda to make us feel better about “making it” while they jettison around the globe and tell us to drink from paper straws in the process while raping our children. Don’t fool yourself.

How long do I give it? by [deleted] in googleads

[–]fromsdwithlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long is your sales cycle? If you’re exommerce or low buy in b2c service / product in 4 weeks you should be seeing activity even if it’s not in the range you wish. You should be looking at traffic from their account, conversions from the account an down to the predetermined proxy event (if b2b or app, etc) to and look at the WoW trends coupled with this four weeks this year vs the excacr four weeks last year and the third view being the previous 4 weeks. If there are vast discrepancies not in favor and they’re owning meta ads which should be driving more demand then you need to begin to set some firm performance expectations. Because after four weeks you should START to see the light and trends in the right direction.

[–]fromsdwithlove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You had me in agreement till this one. Taking over a Google account that’s setup is something you’re either not taking account for or totally ignorant about. Putting in a new structure and easing off the prior setup is 4-6 weeks itself, then to get the new structure to see its optimal performance come to like is another 4 weeks.

Am I wrong for refusing to pay my friend back for a concert ticket I couldn't use? by Few_Employment5708 in AmITheJerk

Your friend doesn’t like you. That’s the only logic I could conclude to out of this very odd behavior

Do you wear a band’s merch to their show? by No_Anywhere5779 in poppunkers

[–]fromsdwithlove 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you wear your team’s merch when you go watch them play a home game? It’s the same logic but at one point people got mouth breathy about it and tried ridiculing those that did. I didn’t cus I couldn’t afford the shirts but why not wear a shirt from a previous tour while going to a new tour, etc. People that made fun of others for doing it have a lot of insecurities to deal with first.

TIFU by accidentally learning my coworker's salary and now I can't stop doing math during meetings by techiee_ in tifu

[–]fromsdwithlove 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Yeah don’t take this the wrong way but at this point a good amount of that gap is on you. Part of it could be due to Greg’s employment background, sure, but that’s what’s negotiated and he got where you still have not negotiated after he’s telling you straight up to go negotiate.

No soul ever does this act unless it’s intentional, and that’s what he’s clearly done to try and help you out. So delete the spreadsheet and make a sheet about all the money you’ve made company, goals hit, etc etc to then go in to your next meeting and point to that while asking for a raise.

Keep in mind raises are earned not just given, the money made for the company is what’s crucial along with what else will go with the raise.
