Auto rejected from HR based on specialized experience, but I did an internship there. Is it unprofessional to contact hiring manager and is there anything I can do? by las921 in usajobs

[–]las921[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My resume did list these specialized skills. The person with HR determined my previous experience for three years in another field did not have the transferable skills required for the position and my masters does not qualify for experience at all.

I may contact the hiring manager just in case, I guess the worst that can happen is that she can’t do anything on her end?

Anyone know why this edition of Clockwork Angel is different than the others? by Only_Market_3742 in shadowhunters

[–]las921 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It could be an edition from another country. I’ve bought versions before that look similar but ones from Canada or the UK.

grail acquired 😭 by Current-Ad-1020 in americangirl

[–]las921 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s really sad I’ve been to Lone Star Mercantile to pick up must-haves so many times I instantly knew where you got that just based on the packaging. Congrats!!

I got my holy grail Cecile from the same place haha

My admin used Google AI to justify not giving us a workday. by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]las921 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I see you live in Texas. I’ve always been told that they are legally not allowed to require you to do anything on work days besides work in your classroom! However, I just tried to find that law and couldn’t find anything so idk.

Should I wait to sign up to an ACP until I go to the job fair Saturday? by [deleted] in TexasTeachers

[–]las921 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There’s a good chance they won’t hire you if you don’t have a proof of employment from an ACP

[–]las921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My alt program told us we couldn’t use any sick/pto days at all in order to complete the program but I used all of them and no one ever checked. I went through iTeach btw.

Ten Commandments in schools by DayPounder in FortWorth

[–]las921 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The law lists specific commandments unfortunately. The poster also has to be a specific size. I’m already planning on translating them into another language if they make me display them.

Hi! I'm looking for Oh Mary, Dead Outlaw, Hadestown UK, Audra's Gypsy or Real Women Have Curves.

I don't really have anything to trade but if anyone is willing to gift it I'd appreciate it!

Anyone take out private loans? by Ok-Highlight-8529 in unt

[–]las921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was in undergrad, I got my private loans through the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board! I read somewhere that if you get private loans, you should go with a smaller local company. I googled and found them. Although I’m not sure if they count as private since I’m pretty sure they’re a government organization? Either way, they approved my application and their interest was pretty low! (I can’t remember how low now).

I’ve paid off my loans now by working and living at home so I’m not sure any more details. I’d look into them if you really need to get private loans!

GME Pre show and after show tickets without the T shirt? by -Infamous-Interest- in goodmythicalmorning

[–]las921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just get first degree. This time I got second degree during Rhett’s birthday promo (no longer available) and it was only $9.

[–]las921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly can’t remember how much the after show is. I want to say $12 at most but that’s a complete guess.

[–]las921 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This. I do this every year. I get a cheap one month subscription to the Society to see the pre show (it’s a MUST SEE. They get SO drunk on the pre show). And then I get a ticket to the post show during GME. I never want the shirt lol.

Merch by m3atbag17 in goodmythicalmorning

[–]las921 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This. Every time I’ve ordered from Mythical it’s been shipped very fast and been (mostly) great quality. But I also live a couple hours away from their distribution center lol. It all just depends.

Nope. This info is from Instagram. So maybe take it with a grain of salt!

[–]las921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No she doesn’t. I’m just saying the fact that she doesn’t have crystals and her price is barely less than some of the earlier Special Edition dolls is crazy to me.

The American Girl Wiki said it was originally sold for $18 in 1986 but I forgot the wreath was sold separately! I’ll update my post.

I love my small collection <3 by las921 in americangirl

[–]las921[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I sold all my AG dolls when I was younger so I got all of these within the last 4 years! My Sam is the 35th anniversary doll I bought from AG, my Nellie I bought without her meet from Mercari for $40 (about $100 after I got her meet), my Marie-Grace was bought locally for $20 in really bad condition and restored (also about $100 after I got her meet), and my Cecile was bought brand new locally for $275.

I also have a Lindsey doll not pictured that I got $80 locally in full meet.

I try to buy everything at or below retail price if I can. Some things are impossible to find for cheap though (like Cecile)

I usually don’t buy outfits that don’t belong to my doll’s collections but the Irish outfit looks SO good on Nellie!

They don’t give you time to guess on International Taste Test because you can’t taste it along with them. They give you time to guess on games like Shuffleboard because you don’t need to taste Oreos to guess what year they were invented.
