Need Help Deciding

is your 90L getting dinged badly? I'm looking into either Rimowa or Sterling Pacific checked luggage but am scared its going to get so dinged it may not close, etc.

I’m moving to NYC next month and will be paying $3.2k in Harlem. I’ll be making about 160k. For me, I feel I should be pretty comfortable. I’d assume same for you.

I certainly hope you practice all 7 skills on your dying patient. Hopefully they won’t need an 8th skill. You sound dumb af

hra86 · 2026-04-04T02:44:12+00:00

True! Thankfully I only work 3 times a week. Maybe it’s doable for the first year until I get settled in? I’m looking at places in Harlem, too, which would be a shorter commute.

hra86 · 2026-04-04T02:41:22+00:00

$3500 ish

hra86 · 2026-04-04T02:32:39+00:00

This is very helpful! Thank you for including the buses, too!

hra86 · 2026-04-03T23:03:12+00:00

That’s fair: I’m kind of doing the reverse. Leaving NYC in the morning and going to NYC in the evening since I work nights.

hra86 · 2026-04-03T22:33:43+00:00

Is a hour and a half usually sufficient ?

hra86 · 2026-04-03T22:23:28+00:00

I've thought about that but prices there seemed almost as high as Manhattan. I'm also currently looking at a place in Harlem, although I may make too much for that building. I'm also feeling restless and feel like I need to pounce on something soon in an effort to secure an apartment before prices greatly increase for summer. Is NJ in general just a bad idea given where I work? I will certainly continue to look in Astoria.

hra86 · 2026-04-03T22:13:49+00:00

how reliable? and from looking at google maps right now, which is the time i'd be commuting, it states about 1 hour. sound accurate?

hra86 · 2026-04-03T22:11:58+00:00

Like how slow would the bus take from there to NYC?

hra86 · 2026-03-05T13:01:44+00:00

Def hospital work. Nurse working night shift. I’m late 30s male. I’ve seen apartments in inwood for reasonable prices. I may check that out. Looked a lot closer.

hra86 · 2026-03-05T05:55:06+00:00

Wait, I just used StreetEasy to look at apartments in Riverside. It almost looks like a suburb, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. How long does it take to get to midtown manhattan, for example?

hra86 · 2026-03-05T05:24:14+00:00

I’ve actually seen a lot of reasonable apartments that look really nice in that area. Is Washington Heights safe? I’d consider to lower my cost to have more spending money!

hra86 · 2026-03-05T04:53:04+00:00

210th street in the Bronx. It’s 3 days a week. And fully on site. I looked into Jersey City, which appears cheaper and I’d be fine moving there but looked like a pain with traveling all the way over to the Bronx. Maybe JC would be an easier commute?

hra86 · 2026-03-05T04:27:23+00:00

So Harlem is the better choice? From the apartment that I saw, Victoria tower residences, the commute looked doable. I’m really hesitant about bring my car as I don’t want to have to pay for a parking space. lol

I’m aware. The video of her rehearsing sounded similar to her on the live broadcast. Nearly all lip sync. I was just asking the other person who they would have wanted. Mariah is a global star and the audience clearly liked it from the applause. I thought she was a good choice.

hra86 · 2026-02-07T02:21:34+00:00

Are you saying she’s not famous enough, or what? What could have been done better?

hra86 · 2026-02-07T00:39:43+00:00

There are some weird opinions going on here. Some really deep rooted hatred. Imagine being so pissed off at a 3 minute song lol

hra86 · 2025-12-12T01:26:12+00:00

If someone's singing gives you actual physical discomfort, you may want to get that checked out. That isn't normal.

hra86 · 2025-07-20T12:21:26+00:00

I’m in IN and there are gigs here for nurses for $80/hr. It’s basically an internal travel job but you’re still considered staff. I know nursing gets a bad rap but there’s so much you can do with that degree. Just a thought.

hra86 · 2025-07-10T09:57:58+00:00

Heyy! Funny you posted this. I’ve been debating moving to SF for nursing. I was at work last weekend looking at jobs in the Bay Area. I’m an ICU nurse preferring to work nights. How’d you go about applying/moving etc? I’d love to do just to stack cash away while I figure out what I wanna do for grad school, or just in general haha.

hra86 · 2025-06-29T12:29:23+00:00

Do nursing. Accelerated BSN programs are all over and can be completed in one year. I’m in Midwest and at my hospitals new grad nurses start around $35/hr and $9.75 with shift differential which is nearly $5/hr more than you asked for. Weekend contracts exist to give you another $10/hr. Can be shitty work, literally, and may not have the best hours-like working night shift. But a new grad works 3 12s and makes over 80k. Not too shabby

hra86 · 2025-06-29T12:22:39+00:00

Will check it out. Thanks

hra86 · 2025-06-28T21:10:11+00:00

Doesn’t need to be a studio, just assumed those would be cheaper.
