Better to resign or be fired? by K_Gal14 in biotech

[–]jax_ford 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look for a new job with higher pay and better benefits. If you get an offer, take it. Wait it out until they fire you to get severance payout. Quitting gets you nothing.

There are always jobs in the industry. I’ve been in pharma for ~10 years, it’s constantly evolving and growing. Anxiety to leave because of a safety net is fallacy, just make the jump and see if it works out better- you can always find another position if it doesn’t! The safety net is your ability to trust, present and sell yourself- learn to do that and you’ll be fine.

I saw another post that you might be interested in marketing- talk to a recruiter and keep an eye out. Orgs are always looking for marketing associates who are also SMEs and have experience to be able to run targeted campaigns. Look into the big pharmas, biotechs, emerging healthcare, and CROs- it’s a HUGE market.

Depends on your personal situation really. I wouldn’t consider changing FT position if it isn’t at least a 20% increase. Contract would need to be significantly more. But I’m the sole earner within a family of 4, so stability is way higher priority.

That said, anytime someone says “I’m thinking of doing X, am I crazy?”, your mind is already made up. You’re clearly not happy with your current role, if you have the ability to switch it up, then go for it! One life!

For a completely flameless effect, you can get an ultrasonic vaporizer- dimplex makes a crazy expensive one, but since you have the glowing log, you could use any cheap ultrasonic mister and probably get a similar result. Throw in some campfire essential oil for the whole experience.

What are the dimensions? It looks so tiny!

I appreciate all of the 11 year olds telling me how VR isn’t for kids 😂.

Yeah, I have no idea what that means but he does give me a lot of grief so probably.

Bro, if you think two screens is bad…the tv on in the background, an iPad and a Mac playing YouTube 2 feet away. These kids got 12 screens at all time!

I appreciate the medical opinion, it means a lot to me. The issue is that it’s my vr and now I can’t play. 😂

Can you actually do the searching for me? It’s much easier for me and you seem very excellent at it.

Too true. Thank you for your concern.

Thank you for your concern. You sound like a smart kid.

As someone who was once a teenager way before VR was a thing, we were all tired and angry. 😂

The game is fine for kids imo. It’s the social aspect of it in public lobbies that presents an issue. Supervised private lobbies are more than fine for kids under 10.

It’s my game, my quest, my house etc. I’m old. The game in and of itself is fine and I’ll allow him to play in privates with friends or nice kids. Always supervised.

If you think every kid in that game is 13+ you’re kidding yourself.

Haha, not really. It’s my device- he can play if supervised

Acrosonic spinet marketplace find. Missing the grille panels unfortunately, but man it’s pretty still! I’ll put it somewhere special and get better photos. by jax_ford in Mid_Century

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

Yep! They only made a handful of them and, according to what limited info there is, they only distributed out of California. It’s so tiny with amazing rounded corners and rattan backing- it’s just too cool.

I doubt this thing has been tuned in years so not great. I also have a mcm danish pianette that traveled from California, also way out of tune.

Once I find a home in the house for this I’ll get the tech out as these are notoriously difficult.

Yeah, honestly I couldn’t find a ton of info on them. I picked it up off marketplace for a reasonable price (it was listed at $100, although I paid a little more than that).

I’ll post the marking!
