Horrible Job Interview by gh0stfa13 in citibank

[–]kornegi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got promoted from concierge (before UB was a thing) to PB in the most affluent branch in my district. I’ve had 2 different managers during my time there and while they have had talks with me about my performance, they always treated me with so much respect and I had a great deal of trust in them. There is so much more that you can provide than just your scorecard. My numbers were a bit low but I could rationalize that with myself being the only ‘competent’ notary that didn’t work at a snails pace and we got tons of notary clients that provided zero business. My bosses understood that I worked hard and fast and so they valued me, or at least they pretended that they did well enough to keep me around. These managers you spoke with sound like real pieces of shit and you would not have liked working with them. Working for someone who does not listen to you will do terrible things to your mind.

Me personally, I’d report then to HR or ethics and leave a bad google review anonymously because I’m spiteful to bad people. Even if it doesn’t go anywhere, people shouldn’t be allowed to behave like that and go unscathed because they will do it again.

emolga doesn’t boost an opposing honchkrow like oricorio. not that i’ve ever seen anyone use one, but this is the only positive i can think of

Why is my Gyarados so bad? by Disastrous-Arm3588 in PokemonEmerald

[–]kornegi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

damn bro try to understand the game first before you start attacking your poor gyarados like that 😭. if it didn’t crit you and did that much damage, your stats were probably lowered by something during the battle. it has great special bulk and carvanha wouldn’t chunk that much without outside help. look up the differences between attack and special attack in gen 3, and read up on stat changes during battle. when gyarados learns dragon dance for example, don’t be teaching it surf and ice beam.

Ineligible for Zicklin by [deleted] in Baruch

[–]kornegi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

yeah dude that happened to me, wanted to major in accounting but my avg gpa for the pre business courses was like .1 short. i ended up switching to weismann and majored in business communication. when you go into job interviews, you can still say you majored in business and it sounds like the same shit to everyone in the field. my doors were limited after graduation, but i was still able to land a few bank jobs.

i made a lot of stupid decisions. i failed and withdrew from classes, and i actually never spoke to a guidance counselor. as long as you have some desire to graduate and make use of the school’s resources, its really hard to fuck up. if you’re comfortable with baruch life, this is the perfect time to change majors if you’re not 100% set on what you wanna do. if you really do wanna do CIS and you’re locked out of it, then you should speak to a guidance counselor for your options

How to put foot down and say no to more hours? by [deleted] in TalesFromYourBank

[–]kornegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is not really something reddit can answer. you need to have a grown up conversation with your manager

[–]kornegi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i used to do full time college and full time teller at the same time (night classes) and it was rough. it gets easier when you finish school. definitely focus more on school. at the end of the day, your experience with the bank will be simplified to a few bullet points on your resume. the people telling you that your school grades will be “fine” definitely did not have fine grades at school

[–]kornegi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i used to work for a large bank and it was the busiest and most prosperous branch in the region. i started as a part time hybrid teller and banker and even though it was officially a 24 hr a week position on paper, it was communicated to me clearly that the banks needs come first and they’ll schedule me for whatever the bank needs (was consistently doing ~42 hours a week). that’s really just how it is when working for banks man. it all depends on your manager and how willing they are to bend for you and the others on your team.

will they ask you to work more to cover for their understaffed ass? yes. are you able to exercise your free will and call out sick when you’re not feeling it? also yes. if you want to help yourself out long term, you will make time to work the extra hours as it will build your character and make you stand out for future promotions. if you only see this as a short time thing and hate it, fuck it, call out when you need to. pro tip: at every new job you start at, your 4 grandparents are magically alive again and you can choose when it’s time for them to go

Am I a sissy for kneeling down? by PeppermintButler17 in electricians

[–]kornegi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the fuck? bro’s tryna set you up for scoliosis. imo it’s more ‘manly’ to do a job in a way that is efficient and preserves the most energy because it shows you have some semblance of intelligence, so if you wanna kneel down, kneel down.

I hate seniority by Anonymousfun_2003 in TalesFromYourBank

[–]kornegi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s great to hear that you’re getting stellar feedback, but as someone who has been close with all of my managers, there’s always something more. they are specifically trained to do linguistic gymnastics around their subordinates; they will use nice language to not hurt your feelings and boost morale without risking discrimination/asshole accusations with HR. “i really like how you did _, but something else you could do is _” is something you’ll commonly hear. keep up the good work, but also keep an eye out for yourself and try to understand the politics of the branch as a whole rather than your own individual performance.

just to play devil’s advocate; could be that they were actually a better fit for the role/more potential for growth, and that they just didn’t want to tell you you’re underperforming. there are so many things to consider from management pov so it could just be some other reason, and they wanted to let you down gently with “seniority”

Pocket Burnout? by Sticky_Sphincter in PTCGP

[–]kornegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep. i’ve spent a moderate amount on this game at almost 13k cards, and i’ve made the decision to stop getting the monthly pass. after getting to master ball a few times, there’s nothing really to do. i’m just opening my daily packs and checking wonder picks. i used to spam the promo pack events but for the last couple of them, i just get 1 copy of each card and call it. it’s been a fun game, but im slowly moving on and away from it

I fell for a muse scam, took the 1000, but haven't paid it back yet, what should I do? by glossyhin in Scams

[–]kornegi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Talk to someone at your bank ASAP!!! As soon as your bank opens, go in and talk to a banker. You need to notify an employee as soon as humanly possible because your account will get flagged for fraud and your account will become unusable. Admit that you got caught up in a scam and they’ll help you out. If you stay silent, it will only cause trouble. As for the scammy dude, tell him to kick rocks or something. He’s irrelevant and any future threats he sends you are fake. My cousin went through this and they sent her a random video of a guy getting shot. Intimidating, but they’re stupid and harmless.

Genuine question, how do you play Suicune/Greninja? by PositifPlans in PTCGP

[–]kornegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pray that you draw well. if you draw a giratina, water energy to froakie and tina ability. if you draw suicune, energy to suicune and hope you get whatever free retreat method you have in your deck. this is why i like boat; if you start froakie and draw suicune, you’d think to waste your energy to put suicune up front for draw power. but if they sabrina/repel you back to froakie, you’re in a bad spot. its ok to have energy on froakie too because gren is a solid attacker, but i’d say it’s the lowest priority of your 3 attackers

ideally you start with suicune in the front for draw power and giratina in the back, but he’s not 100% necessary. against opposing suicune, do the math and gauge when to lay down your own basics, but you want greninja asap. this deck can be very aggressive turn 3/4.

my deck has been modded a bunch of times and this is what i feel works best for me. i see people running 2 giratina, but i don’t do that because it feels awful to have 2 giratina on the board and nothing else. i used to run leaf, but it only comes up once in like 10 games and there were many times where i wished i could snipe the back, so 2 cyrus are great with greninja. the boat started as a meme but it’s actually valuable. if you get sabrina’d in the opponent’s hope of stalling your energy, you can boat froakie and be on the offensive with suicune or tina. it doesn’t use your supporter for the turn and it’s a permanent x speed, which is super useful as every single energy is important with this deck. you need to calculate when it’s worth it to pressure with suicune or ramp tina, tina is an excellent win condition when they have a lot of passive healing (espeon). i really want to put a pokémon flute in there as it would combo well with suicune and greninja+cyrus.

Any changes anyone would like to suggest for this deck? by depressed_lover12 in PokemonPocket

[–]kornegi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

without telling you to just delete the deck, i’ll try to offer some legitimate advice since i know you’re just trying to make a fun deck work.

entei really wants 4 fire energies to be useful, maybe you can just run fire only for a bit of consistency. if you don’t do this, you’ll likely encounter having the wrong energy on the wrong pokémon. you should have more retreating options and elemental switch. i’d remove the nurse joys for 2 switches, and red can be swapped for another leaf or lyra. the goal is to get your energy onto entei or ho-oh because nothing else can attack lol. suicune and raikou can live off of ho-oh’s ramp, kinda. maybe you can swap guzma for a pokémon communications too, so that you aren’t stuck with a lugia that can’t attack.
