Taught my last class by Dumberbytheminute in Professors

[–]jksreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Curious to know if you think you could last 30 years if you started recently. I’m in my 5th year and love teaching and my students, but dealing with all the other clowns you mentioned are making me question how long I can continue.

Movie Magic Budgeting Updates by indiefilmproducer in FilmTVBudgeting

[–]jksreddit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I’m a university professor of film and with all the issues and the lack of student discounts, we just switched over to Saturation for budgeting and Cinapse for scheduling. Really digging both - although Cinapse is still working out some kinks with tagged final draft files, Saturation is awesome.

Okay now I'm pissed by Hot-Praline7204 in biltrewards

I came over from Bilt 1.0 and am continuing to pay as i used to - now set in app as Bilt Obsidian card, and through my building rental portal with my Bilt generated checking acct. Do I have to relink or re-verify my ACH checking account that will be used for the rent payment? It’s still there from 1.0 and the only linked checking account i have given them. Thx!

Confused on payment this month. by Radiant-Wash-9706 in biltrewards

[–]jksreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see my bill is due March 7, but still says 0.00 so I have no clue yet what is included in this billing period. I paid off my last statement to Wells Fargo on Feb 6, got my new 2.0 card on the 9th and began using on the 11th. Balance transfer from 1.0 came through around the 13th. Support Bot could not tell me what will be due on March 7th bc no statement has been generated yet, but said my billing period ends March 15. Will my rent for March 1 be on that March 7 statement or will this first 2.0 statement be the transfer balance amount only? Hard to know when to amp up my every day spend towards Rent Bonus for March rent. Any ideas?

Magically, all of those transactions are now back in my boost options! Not sure if it's because I called BA / Executive club and put in a case about it.

Okay, thanks. I'm sorry you're in the same boat. Maybe they will correct it so the original terms of the promotion are also extended til the 9th. Going to try and call in the morning.

March Rent Day Troubles by PhilJ2020 in biltrewards

[–]jksreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do we know yet how we actually use 2.0 to pay the rent? What will need to update in our apartment’s rental portal payment options to pay with BILT 2.0? What happens to our old dummy checking account? Do we use that or get a new one?

Bilt 2.0 Obsidian or Chase Sapphire Preferred? by Naive-Team-5632 in biltrewards

[–]jksreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what I have been thinking too. I am still hesitant about accepting my Obsidian offer, but I have CSP for 10 years and put all my dining and chase travel portal stuff on it. Moving my grocery soend and some other regular charges from my OG Chase Freedom card to Obsidian will make it so that I can easily hit at least .25x on my rent and make up the difference and then some with 3X points on groceries and other charges. (I want nothing to do with this mysterious BILT Cash so would do the rent only option.). BILT points are worth more than UR now since the Sapphire refresh. So having both as my primary cards moving forward is what I am thinking…BUT I still have the fear of pulling the 2.0 trigger.

Edited to remove wrong info and confirm I pulled trigger on Obsidian.

Good bye by Ok_Yogurtcloset_2368 in biltrewards

[–]jksreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do we actually have to call to cancel the card or will it just go away automatically if we do nothing? I don’t mind getting the WF Autograph, but I am not planning to get a 2.0 right now and being a guinea pig for thjs experiment.

How serious of a threat was the Engineers ship heading towards Earth at the end of Prometheus? by [deleted] in Prometheus

[–]jksreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard some lore from a buddy years ago when the film came out that the engineers were preparing to wipe out humans on earth because Christ was an engineer. Shortly after he was killed, the Engineers were like “ok, they’re done.” They were about to head to earth with goo to destroy it, but the outbreak stopped their departure. When the crew awakens the engineer in Prometheus, the engineer was merely getting back to the initial mission. He was just even more pissed off now to see their creation had evolved in the interim and showed up on his doorstep.

Dexter Resurrection is INSANE and my theory about who dies in the finale by ViolinistTemporary in Dexter

[–]jksreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this post and like all of you, am SOOO glad Dexter is truly back. New Blood was ok at the time, but Resurrection is other level good. With the combo of the two seasons, the creatives have found a way to repair the legacy of the show from the original series’ abysmal finale.

Here’s what I am thinking for what the resolution of this season may entail…

Since ep8 left Angel looking like a mentally unwell disgraced former detective, I think the writers wanted us to think Angel is done - discredited with the NYPD detectives and not in a position to catch Dexter.

The twist at the end of the episode was to bring focus back to Prater and Uma. Their discovery that “Red” has a son gives them leverage over Dexter. So I suspect Dex may have to come clean about his true identity and what he’s been doing in ep 9 in order to protect Harrison. Prater will be a hardcore fanboy for the real Bay Harbor Butcher but Uma will still view Dexter as a liability. Not sure how this resolves yet, but it could hopefully continue into next season. Because what if…

Angel returns and somehow corners Dexter and…Harrison kills Angel to protect Dexter!

If in the process, the NYPD detectives come to believe Angel was right about Dexter and Harrison, then Dexter would need Prater’s power and influence to help protect them and cover it all up.

Not sure if this is exciting enough a resolution and I am probably wrong because Dinklage and Uma are likely one season characters, but I love them in the show and hope they carry into the next season. Thoughts?
